LIFE ASSURANCE SOCIETY, No 26, LINCOLN'S-INN-FIELDS, LONDON. Messrs. Rooper, Birch, and Ingram, Lincoln's-inn-fields. Robert Willis, M.D. I John Scott, M.D. ACTUARY AND SECRETARY, J. J. Sylvester, Esq. M.A. F.R.S. This Society grants Assurances to meet every kind of pecuniary risk contingent upon the duration of human life. Four-fifths of the profits are divided among the assured. The rates are calculated upon the basis of the Government returns. Assurances are granted upon an increasing scale, thereby effecting a considerable reduction in the premiums for the first seven years. In cases where a life assured by another has gone beyond the limits prescribed by the policy, without the knowledge of the party interested, the Society will, upon his application, and proof of the life being then in a satisfactory state of health, (but subject to their medical officers' approval of the risk as applicable to such life) renew the policy upon the same terms as they would have required for its continuance had their consent been previously obtained.

The principle adopted by the Universal Life Assurance Society, of an Annual Valuation of assets and liabilities, and a division of three-fourths of the Profits among the Assured, is admitted to offer great advantages, especially to those who may wish to appropriate their proportion of profit to the reduction of premiums. The following Table will show the result of the last division of profits, as declared on the 13th of May 1846, to all persons who on that day paid six annual premiums.

HALF CREDIT RATES OF PREMIUM. The attention of ASSURERS is particularly directed to the Half Credit Rates of Premium, by which means Assurances may be effected, and Loans for short periods secured with the least possible present outlay, and at a less premium than for short terms only, and with the option of paying up the arrears and interest, and the difference between the two rates, thus becoming entitled to participate in the whole of the Profits of the Institution.

COLES'S PATENT TRUSSES are universally admitted to be the most complete and effective Instruments now in use for the Relief and Cure of HERNIA. The pads move imperceptibly with the body when stooping or coughing. The following opinions are selected, from a list too numerous for insertion in a single advertisement: "This is the only real improvement in the construction of a truss that ever came under my inspection."-George Birkbeck, M.D. "The pressure upon the ring is not merely equalised, but adjusts itself, without inconvenience to the wearer, to the different attitudes in which the body may be placed."-Wm. Thos. Brande, Esq., Royal Institution. "They make a more uniform pressure on the ring than the ball-and-socket pad can effect."-Sir A. Cooper, Bart., F.R.S., in his Treatise on Hernia. "The varied positions of the body in stooping and coughing do not alter the position of the pads, nor displace them."-Thomas Callaway, Esq., Guy's Hospital. "It is my firm conviction that his trusses will be found more efficacious than any at present employed."-Henry Earle, Esq., F.R.S. "I may add, that this truly scientific discovery justly entitles the inventor of such an instrument to universal confidence."-John Borthwick Gilchrist, Esq. "They are the best trusses that have ever yet been got up."-Aston Key, Esq., Guy's Hospital. "I consider these trusses calculated, beyond every other truss I have seen, to cure this disease in its earliest and simplest form."— Gideon Mantell, Esq, F.R.S.
