Parties assuring within six months of their last birth-day are al-
lowed a diminution of half a year in the premium charged.
Policies do not become void by the life assured going beyond the
prescribed limits—so far as regards the interest of third parties—pro-
vided they pay the additional pr ems so soon as the fact comes to
their knowledge.
" Free Policies" are issued, at a small increased rate of premium,
which remain in force although the life assured may go to any part
of the world.
Parties may affect assurances by the payment of a single premium
with the privilege of withdrawing the sum paid.
The tables are especially favourable to young and middle-aged
lives, and the limits allowed to the assured, without extra charge,
are unusually extensive.
Eighty per cent. of the profits are divided every fifth year among
the assured. At the first division of profits up to December 31, 1849,
the average addition to policies was fully 50 per cent. on the amount
paid for premium.
