'the following are among the distinguishing features of this In-
stitution:—

1. A diminished Rate of Assurance, especially on the younger
Lives, calculated upon the improved state of public health and In-
creased duration of human life.

Y. Granting the privilege of assuring a fixed sum, to become dire
at the time et decease, by making a single present payment, or by
annual payments, for three, five, seven, or any given number of
years, instead of continuing the payments of premium through the
whale term of life.

3. Giving to the assured the option of leaving the proSts to
n, which di may become entitled, to accumulate for the benefit of
their successors, to be calculated in diminution of the annual pay-
ments of premium.
4. Extending the advantages of Life Assurances to persons sub-
ject to such deviations from the common standard of health, as do
not essentially tend to shorten life, instead of excluding those af-
Meted with gout, asthma, and the other diseases usually specified.
the Society will grant annuities, endowments for children, &e.'
an Will purchase annuities,reversions,aud other contingent interests.'
