The WHOLE PROFITS belong to the Policy Holders, among
whom they are allocated every THREE YEARS. It is therefore
impossible for any Assurance Office to afford greater advan-
tages.

A Policy for .€lOOO effected on Ist March. 1832, is now in-
creased to .€1429, and other Policies in proportion.

LIFE ASSURANCE on the principle of Mutual
Contribution. SCOTTISH WIDOWS' FUND LIFE
ASSURANCE SOCIETY. Founded A.D. 1815, and Consti-
tuted by Act of Parliament, for Assurance on the Lives of per-
sons in every station or profession, wheresoever resident.
Greater advantages cannot be obtained from any Insurance
Company or Society, than those possessed by the Members of
the Scottish Widows' Fund Life Society, as the following illus-
tration may spew :—A party in his 29th year, in the month of
January 1816, having then become a Member by Insurance on
his life to the extent of £lOOO, has, up to the present time,
contributed altogether £853, exclusive of any interest; and
the sum which would be paid under the Policy in the event of
his death taking place at any time in the course of this year,
is .e 1,954 3s. Bd. Were he to die between Jan. 1850 and Jan.
1851, there would be paid .e1,990 7 5
Between Jan. 1851 and Jan. 1852 .... 2,026 11 2
Between Jan. 1652 and 31st Dec. 1852 2,062 14 11
To the Representatives of this Member, therefore, were he
to die in the year 1852, after payment of the Premium for that
year, there would be paid MORE THAN DOUBLE the amount of
the original Insurance. Members have the option of allowing
their Policies to go on increasing annually, as above stated:
Or of surrendering the Bonuses for their present value in
cash: . _

Or to have an equivalent reduction in future Premiums; and
in the case of all of the early Insurances, the Bonuses have for
some years back been more than equivalent to a total extinc-
tion of future Premiums, so that, in reality, many Members
are altogether freed from payment of farther Premiums, and
yet have increased and increasing Policies.
Also, Loans are granted to Members on the security of Poli-
cies held by them in their own right, to the extent of nine-
tenths of their value.

The Sums Assured, with Additions, now amount to upwards
of .€7,000,000.
The Capital Accumulated and Invested now amounts to up-
wards of .€2,070,800, and the Annual Revenue to upwards of
."3430,000.
.

And by last Annual Report, the deaths and relative claims
were in the ratio of only 53i per cent. of what might have been
expected according to the Tables upon which the Society's
calculations are based.

Prospectuses and every information may be readily obtained on
application at the Head-office, or any of the Society's
Agencies.
