UNIVERSAL LIFE ASSURANCE OF-
FICE, 1, KING WILLIAM-STREET, LONDON.
The Rates of this Office, founded on the most accurate ob-
servations of the duration of human life, are as moderate as is
eensistent with perfect security.
One-fifth of the ascertained profits of the five preceding
years is divided between the policy-holders and shareholders ;
three-fourths to the former, and one-fourth to the latter. The
remaining four-fifths are set apart to enter into the average of
the succeeding years, and thus to provide against unforeseen
contingencies.
The first division of profits took place on the 13th of May,
1840, when a reduction of 60 per Cent. was declared on the
current annual premiums of all those policies entitled to parti-
cipation. The second division of profits was in May, 1841,
when a similar reduction was again declared.
The following table will show the operation of the reduction
made by the Society :

This system of reduction in the premiun's affords immediate
benefit to the Assured, or enables them to secure a considerable
bonus by effecting a new policy.
Policies are granted in London, and by resident Committees
at Calcutta, Madras, and Bombay, on India risks, at very ad-
vantageous rates, calculated from extensive data and tables, ex-
clusively in the possession of this Society,to show the true risk
of life dur;ng residence in India, and after retirement fium
foreign service. By order of the Board,
DAVID JONES, Actuary.

and a rough skin, and, from its extraordinary efficacy in allay-
ing all incidental inflam ation, &c., deserves a place among

Beaconsfield, Attgust 7th, 1841.
Sir,—Having for several years past sufferet4 exceedingly from Gout
and Rhelmatism, so much so that I was prevented from following
my usual avocations far months together, I was recommended by a
friend of mine who had taken Blair's Pill• with great success, to try
a box, one of which I procured of your Ageot, Mr. Butler, of Bea-
consfield, and which I can confidently assure you had such a won-
derful effect upon me, that I have not had an attack of Gout or Rheu-
matism since, which is now fifteen month‘. You are at liberty to
make what use you please of this testimonial in favour of your truly
valuable Pills. I remain, Sir, yours very respectfully,
JOHN COSHER.
