This Institution is empowered by a Special Act of Parlia-
ment, and is so constituted as to afford the benefits of Life As-
surance, in their fullest extent, to Policy-holders, and to pre-
sent greater facilities and accommodation than are usually of-
fered by other Offices. The decided superiority of its plan,
and its claim to public preference and support, have been proved
incontestably by its extraordinary and unprecedented success.
ASSURANCES MAY EITHER BE EFFECTED BY
PARTIES ON THEIR OWN LIVES, OR BY PARTIES
INTERESTED THEREIN ON THE LIVES OF
OTHERS.
The effect of an Assurance on a person's own life is to
create at once a Property in Reversion, which can by no other
means be realised. Take, for instance, the case of a person at
the age of thirty, who, by the payment of 51. 3s. 4d. to the
Britannia Life Assurance Company, can become at once pos-
essed of a bequeathable property, amounting to 1,000/., sub-
ect only to the condition of his continuing the same payment
quarterly during the remainder of his life—a condition which
may be fulfilled by the mere saving of EIGHT SHILLINGS
weekly in his expenditure. Thus, by the exertion of a very
slight degree of economy—such, indeed, as can scarcely be felt
as an inconvenience, he may at once realise a capital of 1,0001.,
which he can bequeath or dispose of in any way he may think
proper.
A Board of Directors in attendance daily at Two o'clock.
Detailed Prospectuses, and every requisite information as to
the mode of effecting Assurances, may be obtained at the Office.

orders incident to the Eyes and Head.

sand cures have been accomplished by its use, at a trifling ex-
pense, yet certain in its operation. If testimonies be necessary
toi nduee the sufferer to make trial, Kings, Lords, and Com-
mons have used it. The Lordsof the Treasury have sanctionee
!ts use. Their late Majestirs,the Duchess of Kent, the most
eminent Oculists, AI itrl Practitioners—with that gigantic
balance, the Press—have eulogised Grimstone's celebrated
Herbaceous Compound, known as " Grimstone's Eye Snuff,"
for its efficacy in removing all diseases incident to the Eyes and
Head. G. J. Guthrie, Esq., F. R. S. See J. B. Lachfielel,
Esq.'s Letter, Whitehall Dr. Thomas. Dr. Andrews calls
it a national blessing—see his Reports touching its utility. The

stone's Eye Snuff, and call it " Man's best Friend," and the

Sir,—l feel great pleasure in sending you the particulars of
my case, and the miraculous cure performed on myself, by
using your truly valuable Eye-Snuff. Sir, I am now in say
93d year, and a native of Holland, have been in this country
26 years. Whether from change of climate, or my advanced age,
1 cannot say, but for six years I have been deprived of sight,'
thereforeunable to follow my business. -I do most sincerel
believe I should have remained in darkness and pain but for
the kind recommendation of a friend to use your invention. I
purchased a 23. 4d. canister of your agent, Mr. Wilcockson, to-
bacconist, who knows the above to be facts, and will bear wit-
ness to my extraordinary recovery of that most inestimable
lessing of our life—" Perfect Sight"—l declare has proceeded
from the use of your Eye Snuff. For the sake of those suffer-
ing, you may make what use you please of this letter, 11r. Wil-
eockson and many others will vouch for its truth. I refer
wellthe
sufferers to this gentleman, being your Agent, and so
known in Nottingham.
I am, Sir, your obliged servant,

freed from humour, and by persevering in its me very fre-
quently I am enabled to read small print without the aid of

mend your Eye Snuff to all I know.
