FOR LIFE ASSURANCE AND ANNUITIES.

GLASGOW.—NO. 33, BUCFIANAN-STREET.
JAMES WATSON, Esu., MANAGER.
This is strictly a Mutual Assurance Society, and the pro-
fits are divisible on a new and equitable principle, peculiarly
favourable to good lives. fi
In other offices, a share of profits ismllotted to all policies,
indiscriminately, which have subsisted for a certain short
term, as five years or even less ; although holders who hap-
pen to die at such early period, must occasion a loss to the
common fund : the premiums which they have lived to pay
not amounting to one-fourth the sum withdrawn at their
death.
• But in this office, the entire surplus is reserved for those
members whose premiums, with accumulated interest, amount
to the sums in their policies.
The Premiums are about one-fourth lower than those of
other Mutual Assurance Offices, which is equivalent to an
immediate bonus to that extent. Thus securing the greatest
present benefit, while the peculiar mode of division of the
profits gives promise of the greatest future contingent ad-
vantages. A combination presented by no other office.
The premiums have been deduced from the most recent
and accredited sources, with such addition as to provide for
perfect security.
Annuities, lininemate, Licierreu, and contingent.
No Entry Money charged.

ELIZABETH HART,
(LATE SAMUEL AND ELIZABETH,)
CHIROPEDISTS,
R E SPE CTFULLY assures those who are troubled with
AA, Corns, Bunions, and defective Nails, that her mode of
treatment combines carefulness and skill, and is highly ap-
proved of by gentlemen of the medical profession. It is at-
tended without the least pain, and immediate relief has in-
variably been the result of their operations. During their
ten years' residence in Liverpool their practice has extended
to• bad Nails; in the very worst of stages, and the worst cases
of Bunions attended by joints out of place ; in some instances,
of many years' standing, perfect cures have been wrought,
enabling the Patients to wear straight and proper shaped
shoes. Testimonials can be produced of those relieved la-
bouring under a gouty affliction of this nature to the happy
enjoyment of ease. Good accommodation for those who
come from a distance. Three days are set apart, from day-
light to dusk, to attend at No. 1, DAULBY-STREET, on Tues-
day, Wednesday, and Thursdays ; the other three days
Families attended at their own residence and Strangers at
hotels, on Mondays and Fridays, if required ; bad cases at-
tended at a distance from Liverpool, by giving timely notice.
Expenses of journey charged proportionably. Commands
left in writing will be duly attended to.
