THE PROVIDENT LIFE OFFICE rat the ongi
Dal Office which effected Insurances upon the prin-
ciple or combining the security of an adequate permanent
Capital (in addition to the fluctuating Funds arising from
the Premiums) with the beneficial rule of returning, at stated
periods, the Surplus of the annual Premiums to the Contribu-
tors, after paying losses, and expenses. The importance of
this Improvement is acknowledged by extraordinary public
approbation, and by the numerous imitations of it, which
new Offices have lately offered, and which older ones have
adopted, in changing their constitutions. The principle is
of chi f value, because as it yields, by the specific sums in-
sured, sod the return of the surplus, the fullest value for the
deposits, persons have no reasonable motive for venturing
on the lure of reduted and bisufficient premium!, which has
led to such frequent instances of disappointment and ruin.
Bonuses of 131. Ss. and 2(51. Its. per cent, have been di-
vided during the last 11. years.
Permission is granted to all persons whose lives are in-
sured at this Office (not being mariners In the exercise of
their profession), to pass by sea in whole decked vessels or
stesm.boats from one part of the United Kingdom to ano-
ther, and also in time of peace from British to the Foreign
Pons between the Texel and Brest inclusive, without license
and extra premium, as is generally required.
Military Men insured at this Office are not charged with
shy additional premium, unless called into actual service.
No Admission Fees are required, nor is any charge made
for Policies, except the Stamp Duty.
Advantages thus extensive and substantial having been
&Instantly realised during a period of seventeen years, un-
der theplan and management of this Office, the Public will
seedily appreciate the difference between the value of Policies
lifted by this Office and by others.
Agents are appointed in all the principal towns.

ITIOWERS'S TONIC PILLS, for Weakness of the
Stomach, Indigestion, Costiveness, Bilious Irregu-
larities, cte. are earnestly recommended in all those eases,

►eady weak, and the digestive powers deranged, active pur-
ptivss are highly prejudicial, and productive of serious in-
My to the constitution. These Fills, In their operation,.l
arepecaliarly mild, safe, and effectual. As a gentle aperient
Tale, they cleanse, and yet strengthen the stomach, restore
Ito appetite, promote digestion, and keep the bowels in a
rook, and comfortable state, free irons costiveness, but
'k! le mesas too relaxed. The Tonic Pills are sold (at
