The DIRECTORS hereby give n
fall due on the sth of April next, tl
thirty days from that date.
The Premiums are payable yearly, half-yearly, or quarterly, on the
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, us
Members, on the sth of April next, should appear, or lodge their pro-
posals, at the Office, on or before that day.
So various are the plans now before the public for the Assurance of
Life, 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 shown to he necessary,
but differ in the mode of disposing of the surplus or profit, the fol-
lowing classification may be made :

"We regard the work before us, the ' Silent Friend,' as a work
embracing most clear and practical views of a series of complaints
hitherto little understood, and passed over by a majority of the me-
dical profession, for what reason we are at a loss to know. We must
however confess that a perusal of this work has left such a favourable
impression en our minds; that we not only recommend, but cordially
wish every one who is the victim of past folly, or suffering from hulls-
cretton, to profit by the advice contained in its pages."—Age and Argus ;

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

The METROPOLITAN, which is of the last class, was established
in 1835, and although'ne paid agents for town or country have at any
time been employed, nor any expensive system of advertising
resorted to, yet its advantages have been so well appreciated by the .
public, that the annual premiums already exceed 50,0001.
In consequence of the prosperous state of the Society's affairs, tte
Annual Premiums of Members of Five Years' standing have been re-
duced Forty-two and a-Half per cent.
A plan of the Society, with Tables of Rates, may be obtained, on
application, at the Office.
