EQUITABLR FIRE OFFICE.
Capitalso,o^o/.
(Incorpirated under 7 and 8 Viet., cap. 110.)
The Icadin4 principles of this Office are —Moderate and equitable
Rates m Premium for each class of risk—Annual division of Profits.
The difficulty of collecting the elements on which to proportion
rreniiirn to risk in Insurance against Loss by Fire has been so
great, that the rates at present charged are more the result of guess
than caleWat;on.
It ha; been found by experience, that the total annual losses of the
different Established Companies hive not been proportionate to the
arnort-d of annual Premiums received by each.
It is of the highest importance, both to the Insured and Insurers,
that such an anomrly should cease, and an approximation to the
true risk male. To secure this object the Equitable Fire Insu-
rancs Company is established.
Thn true rate of Premium for Fire Insarance can only be ap-
proached thr mgh Classification and Average, which has not hitherto
been t.ufficiently acted en, or systematically applied.
Whatever be the nominal rate, the bonus or return periodically to
the Insured will determine the true Premium equitably payable, as
security against leas for so great a calamity as fire, and the Insurer
is largely interested in this question, and will consult his interest by
stipporting a system where, by a careful combination of Classifica-
tion and Average, the Premium will be proportioned to the risk.
The V.quitable Fire Office will, by a constant analysis of its own
ffom time to time, adopt such rates of Premium as the
nature of the risk may justify, and will decline to enter into arrango-
Merits as regards tariffs with other offices.
With this view an annual investigation will be made into each
class of risk. and a return of one moiety, or fifty per cent. of the nett
excess will he n: ;de to all classes of Insurers whose Policies have
been in force for three years.
Insurances against Loss by Fire are effected by this Company upon
every description of Property on moderate terms.
Farming Stock insured at 3s. per cent, without the Average Clause.

MISFITTING COAT•

Whatever could the "snip" have meant to do
When making such an article as you?
One of your parts is tight, and one is slack ;
I'm quite :ashamed to put you on my back.
in parts the tailor should have made you bigger,
In order to adapt you to my figure ;
While other portions should be made mauls less—
Yon really quite disgrace the name of dress.
Yo make your owner such an ugly elf
That he's ashamed to look upon himself.
I wish I'd gone to MOSES—that I do—
Instead of buying such a coat as you;
My inaney has been thrown into the street--
A nothe ec:. t would be a perfect treat.
But wisdom for the future will I learn.
And never laty at such a mean concern.
To MOSE. ' Mart in future I'll repair,
For I ih 1:' get a fitting garment there.
Thati C coat which my friend Thompson bought,
In point : tiinot made wrong in aught.
I only 'hink what M. and SON would say,
If such a coat as you were hi their way :
They'd not allow you house-room at their shop,
Nor any such a specimen of slop.

This work contains an accurate and complete account of the
Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs. It tin-
f*rtunately happens that the unhappy victim of excessive indul-
gence and vicious habits, while suffering from their invariable con-
sequences, unwisely entertains a fear of applying to a qualified physi-
cian for relief. Shame and the dread so frequently, but erro-
neously entertained that these complaints are beyond' no reach of
art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking for as'Astance where
alone it can be procured. Dr. LA'MERT has taken the highest
medical honours, as his diplomas testify, and the great extent of his
practice far many years is a guarantee for his professional experi-
ence, which has reference almost solely to the treatment of these
Mileages.
