The DIRECTORS hereby give notice to Members whose Pre.

within thirty days from that date.
The premiums are payable yearly, half-yearly, or quarterly, on tha
sth of January, sth of April, sth of July, and sth of October, either
of which several days constitutes the commencement of the year to
Members. Persons, therefore, desirous of entering the Society, as
Members, en the sth of April next, should appear, or lodge their
proposals at the Office, on or before that day.
So various are the plans now befoce the public for effecting As-
surance on Lite, that it may seem difficult to make choice between
them. As, however, all prudent offices make a considerably higher
charge in the annual premium than experience has hitherto s!-.own
to he necessary, but differ in the mode •f disposing of the surplus or
profit, the following classification may be made:-
Ist. Proprietary Offices, whe e all the surplus from premiums and
other profits is divided, exclusively, amongst the Share or Stock.
holders.

2d. Offices where the same is divided in various proportions be-
ween Share and Stockholders and the Assured.

Od. Offices of a strictly mutual character, where the whole of the
profit is equitably distributed amongst the Assured only.
The METROPOLITAN, which is of the last class, was established
in 18.15, and although no paid agents for town or country 'rive at any
time barn employed, nor any expensive system of advertising re-
sorted to, yet its advantages have been so well "appreciated by the
public, that the annual premiums already exceed £49,000.
In consequence of the prosperous state of the Society's affairs, the
Annual Premiums of Members of Five Years' standing have been
reduced FO %TY-TWO AND A HALF per Cent.
A plait of the Society, with tables of rates, may be obtained on
application at the office.
