The COLONIAL LIFFASSU RA NCE COMPANY has been
established to ASSURE the LIVES of parties resident in Great
Britain, and to give increased facilities for the like purpose to
persons resident abroad, or visiting Foreign Countries, and
offers the following among other peculiar advantages :
Persons resident • in any part of Europe, or in certain parts
of North America, in Australia, New Zealand, or Cape Colony,
are Assured at about the same rate as other respectable offices
charge for Home Residences; and have, besides, permission
to pass from one part of Europe to another, and and from
any part of North America within certain limits, without extra
charge; and to or from the Australian Colonies at a small ad-
ditional rate.

ASSURED PARTIES arc allowed at any time to proceed to
any part of the world, on a fixed and published rate for that
part, without further medical examination; and are allowed to
come upon the Home Rate on their return, without further
medical certificate.

PROTECTIVE or WHOLE WORLD LICENSES are granted
at slightl, increased rates (varying from ss, to 10s. per cent )
to partiei who have no present intention of going to an un-
healthy climate, which cover the risk of the assured parties
proceeding to • any part of the world at an after period, and
thus offer a complete security to persons making advances on
Policies of Assurances effected with this Company.
MODERATE RATES being charged for India, the West
Indies, and. China, the regulations are highly beneficial to
