SCOTTISH PROVIDENT INSTITUTION,

VONSTITUTEL on the Principle of MUTUAL ASSU-
k.) RANCE, with the LOWEST RATES consistent with
SECURITY, and providing for an EQUITABLE DIVI.
SION of the WHOLE PROFITS among the ASSURED
EDINBURGH' 14, St. Andrew's-square.
OFFICES GLASGOW, 141, Buchanan-street.
The LEADING PRINCIPLES of this Office are,

Ist. To charge the LOWEST PREMIUMS, consistent
with perfect security ; and,

2d. To divide the. WHOLE SURPLUS among those
Members from whose longer payments they have arisen, no
share being given to Policies of only a few years' standing,
on which there must be a loss, and not a profit. This is
evidently more equitable, and at the same time more advan-
tageous for good lives, than the system of division generally
adopted.
The PRACTICAL EFFECT of these two principles is,
that by the first—namely, the diminution of the Premiums—
the greatest present benefit is secured to q 11; while by the
second—the peculiar mode of division age surplus—those
who survive the average duration of‘life will derive the
greatest future contingent advantages ; a combination pre-
sented by no other office.
No ENTRY MONEY CHARGED.

The Premiums may be made to cease entirely, after a li-
mited number of paynzents. Those payable for 21 years only
will be found new ly the same as most Offices require for the
whole of life, however long.

Offices, Prospectuses explanatory of the Principles, Forms
