BSOLUTE SECURITY POLICIES, • UN-
CI- FORFEITABLE, UNCONDITIONAL, and UN-
CITALLENGEABLM, issti d by the PRUDENTIAL
ASSURANCE COMPANY, 62,. Ludgate-hill, Loudon,
E.C. Establshed 1848.

Tho Directors of this Company, in deference to an ob-
jection not imfreluently urged by persons invite.] to as-
mode Of Life Assn.-sm.. is in their
opinion defective or uncertain, by reason o`-the oporat'on
of the customary co,lb ions, let ve reso'v,d to p-omuhr,te
the present Tables, and to is.am Assm-ane mid,- them
which shall be absolutely Uttforfeitabk Unconditional,
anti Unchallengeahi'.
For the reason referred to, many persons hesitate or
decline to assure on the ground that, in the event of in-
ability or unwillingness to continuo piyment of their pre-
miums, the Assurance will become forfeited. To this
c'ass of the public the system now introduced will espe-
cially commend itself, being entirely free from all condi-
tions of forfeiture on account of non-paymel t of premium,
or front any other cause whatever; while at the same
time it absolutely guarantees at decease, when even a de-
fault is made iu payment of the premium. a fixed sum in
respect of every premium paid, blaring the same propor-
tion to the total amount assured as the number of pre-
miums actually paid may bear to the whole number origi-
nally contracted to be paid.
Besides this important advantage, every policy will ex-
pressly state what sum can at any time be withdrawn on
the discontinuance of the assurance.

The assure I will thus always have the option of ret•iin-
ing either an ascertained fixed sum payable at decease,
or, in case of need, of withdrawing a certain amount, ac-
cording t the duration of the Policy, such amounts being
set forth on every Policy, and rendering unnecessary any
future reference to the Company on these points, as is the
case with ordinary assurances.
Creditors aszunng the lives of debtors will appreciate
this feature as one greatly protective of their interests, and
it will likewise commend itself to bankers, capitalists, and
others who are in the habit of making advances collaterally
secured by Life Policies, as they can at any time learn, by
mere inspection, the exact value, either immediate or re-
versionary, of a Policy of this description.
Every Policy issued on this plan will be without any
conditions as to voyaeing, foreign residence, or other usual
limitations. By this freedom from restrictions of all kinds
the objections before referred to will be entirely removed,
and the Policies will become at once positively valuable as
actual securities.

In additionlo the foregoing statement of advantages,
the number of premiums is strictly defined. The l ngest
term provided for is twenty-fire years, and the shortest
five years, as shown by the Tables. Thus, hankers, credi-
tors, and others holding policies of this cl tss as security,
may always know the utmost amount they may be called
upon to advance so as to maintain the full benefit of the
Assurances—a matter of great importance where policies
are held as collateral security.
It is only necessary to add that, as a consequence of the
policies under these tables being unforfeitable and uncon-
ditional, they will also be unchallengeablo on any ground
whatever. They may therefore be aptly termed Absolute
Security Policies.

The PRUDENTIAL ASSURANCE COMPANY pos-
sesses an income of £215,000 a year. Its position is un•
questionable, and it obtains the largest amount of new
business of any office in the Kingdom. SPECIAL
