NATIONAL LOAN FUND LIFE ASSU-
RANCE SOCIETY.
26, Cornhill, London.
Capital £500,000.
Empowered by Act of Parliament.
This Institution embraces important and substantial advantages
With respect to Life Assurances and Deferred Annuties.
Policies issued by this Society have a twofold advantage :—provi-
sion for the family of the Assured, and an augmenting pecuniary
available resource to himself, if needful, while!. iving. The Assured
has, en all occasions, the power to borrow, without expense, or for-
feiture of the Policy, two-thirds of the Premiums paid.
DIVISION OF PROFITS.
The continued prosperity of the Society has enabled the Directors
at the Annual Meeting, held on the 10th of May, 1848, to declare a
elxth bonus, varying from 27 to 65 per cent. ou the Premiums paid
on each Policy effected on the profit scale.

DEFERRED ANNUITIES.
By the operation of the same principles, the Society is enabled to
afford to the public a plan of Deferred Annuities far more advanta-
geous than any hitherto offered, whereby an individual, by the con-
tribution of a very small annual, monthly, or weekly saving, may se-
cure either a comfortable provision for himself in advanced age, or,
at his option, a large sum of money, or a policy to his family at his
death ; while by giving to the purchaser, at any time, the power of
borrowing two-thirds of all previous payments, it removes all risk
of ferfeiture front inability to continue premiums, besides affording
an ample resource during sickness and want of employment ; and
should the purchaser die before arriving at the stipulated period, two-
thirds of his payments will be returned to his representatives.
The following Table is a specimen of the great and varied advan-
tages which the judicious application of a small saving can secure
through this Society.

This work contains an accurate and complete account of the
Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs. It un-
fortunately 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 the reach cf
art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking for assistance where
alone it can be procured. Dr. LA'IIERT has taken the highest
m
edicalhonours, as his diplomas testify, and the great extent of his
raetiee for many years is a guarantee for his professional expert-
.7lc_e which has reference almost solely to the treatment of these
diseases.
