nary affections dyspepsia, constipation, and various
degrees of local general debility, have been
lieved by this instrument. It is particularly adapt
ed to numerous ailments prevalent at the South, to
spinal weaknesses, distortions, a tendency of the
body to lounge and droop, both in children and
adults. By restoring the form to erect posture,
it enlarges the chest, that the subject breahes
freer and easier, and thus many contractons of the
chest, with attendant affections Of the heart and
lungs, are counteracted, and full play is given to the
organs of respiration.
The brace may be had in this city by applying to
Mrs. Baldwin, who will be in attendance at all
times over Z. Wheeler's hardware store, Pennsy.

Net amount Of accumulated premiums, S2l5,57l.
This company is organized on the purely mutual
principle, and its business is restricted by the char
ter to the insurance Of lives, and granting annuies
and endowments.
Ii commenced, without CAPT tai, the LIST Of Feb
ruary, l643. At the close ofits second year, (3lst
January, lS45) IL had issued 066 policies and its
net accumulated premiums was s97,272. AT the
termination Of the third year, the 2lst January
1886, the whole number Of policies issued was 090
AMI its net accumulated premiums, after paying all
losses and expenses, was 2l5,57l thus exhibiting
an increase during the last year Of Loaf policies is
sued and Sis, 2S6 Of accumulated funds, which is
rapidly augmenting by an annual income Of $780,
600, growing out of original and renewed premiums
and interest on investments.
This extraordinary success places the company
in a strong position, and it now ranks among the
safest institutions in the country.
Policy-holders participate in the whole Of the
profits there being no proprietary interest or sub
sorbed capital TO absorb any portion thereof An
extensive and prosperous business promises large
dividends the first division Of profits the LIST
of February, lS4S, and persons now insuring will
share in these profits if they survive that period
The premiums paid annually, and low
any American company, and lower than the
English, with participation in the profits. Policy
holders are secured by Investments in bonds and
mortgages on real estate in the city of New York
and Brooklyn, worth double the amount loaned
thereon and in stocks of the State and city of New
York.
The transactions Of this company are on the
cash principe-consequenuy the survivors of par
ties insuring with it will not be subjected to the
heavy drawback Of accumulated premium notes;
reducing the benefit of the assurance to small pit
lance.
Persons may effect insurance on their own lives
and the lives Of others. A carried woman can insure
the life of her husband, which will enure to her sole
use and that Of her children.
