Insurance. NORWICH UNION LIFE INSURANCE SOCIETY, Empowered by special Acts of Parliamsnt, and by Royal Charter in the reign of Queen Anne, to undortake all business connected with the Life Assurance, IS A PURELY MUTUAL OFFICE. The Norwich Union Life Soclet5 r has no distinct bod} of proprietors ; the insurers at large are the recipients of the savings of the institution : the premiums paid, being in fact only deposits, revert to those who con tribute them. SETTLEMENT POLICIES. To meet one of the greatest wants of the day the Norwich Union issues Policies in the nature of settle ment, whereby a man in solvent circumstances, pro vided the matter is bond fide, may secure, without the risk or bankruptcy, a certain and direct pro vision for his family. * RESOURCES. r Irrespective of the immense annual revenue of this Society, gradually and surely on the increase, it pos sesses a Reserve Fund of £2,300,000 and upwards, available for its requirements. RATES OF PREMIUM _ . Are framed as low as are consistent with the due safety of the Society, and its Actuary is calculated to be one of the most competent authorities in England, the Court of Chancery having recently had to avail themselves of his experience in those matters ; and although apparently higher than some offices, assurers hould not loose sight of the fact that they receive it back, either in bonuses or in addition to sums assured, and in electing- to insure in this Society they also avail themselves of the experience and safety of a concern that time has proved to be secure against all chances. LOANS. Sur-end9r values are given for Policies of three years standing, or loans granted on security op same. FOREIGN TRAVEL Permitted to all parts of the globe in properly decked vessels, and in time'of peace, PARTICIPATION OF PROFITS. In this office it is anticipated that persons entering at 80 will be relieved from further premiums at 44 40 • ~ 00 50 „ „ „ C 8 Medical Fees are paid by the Company, and there arj no charges for Stamps, Policies, &c. One-half the first five years' premiums may remain unpaid upon whole Life Polioies. T. B. KENDERDINE, Esq., M.D., Medical Refeeee.

Schnapps- Important Public Notice. WOLFE'S A.EOMATIC &CHIE DAM SCHNAPPS, Registered under Trade Marks" Act, 28 Vie. No 9. The extraordinary Sale, wide-spread popularity, and wonderful results of Wolfe's Schnapps prove in disputably that the introduction of a perfectly pure beverage is appreciated by the Australian public. The medical profession being the most competent in science, and responsible in society, of all others to form a correct judgment of the medicinal and salutary properties of an article of this kind would not give their unsolicited testimonials in special commendation of Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps were it a preparation of doubtful or even ordinary quality, nor unless they had proved its superior excellence and value in their own practice or experience. As a means of preventing the disagreeable and often dangerous effects produced upon the stomach and bowels by a change of water, or in the use of water containing an infusion of decayed, vegetable matter, which so often prodtices that obstinate form of Fever and AauE which so frightfully undermines the consti tution, THE SCHIEDAM AROMATIC SCHNAPPS will be found absolutely infallible, while in cases of Dropsy, Gravel, Obstructions of the Kidneys, Diseases of the Bladder, Dyspepsia, Flatulency of Age and Infancy, and General Debility it is recommended most em phatically-by the most distinguished members of the Medical Profession. The following reliable testimonials have been offered 1 by the Australian Press :— Sydney Morning Herald. " In these days when alcoholic liquors are so largely consumed, and consumers are so much in doubt whether their systems are not being gradually impaired by adulteration, it is well that one a* least of the popular beverages of the period is reliable as pure—that is Wolfe's Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps. It is some_ thing to be assured by physicians and other of th" scientific cognoscenti that we have in this article genuine extract which, taken in moderate quantity an a under ordinarily healthy conditions of body, affords a beneficial stimulus to the animal functions 1; and, even if taken in excess, leaves but a minimum of the in evitable evils of abuse. " If it is necessary in the interests of the public to denounce the too common practice of manufacturing noxious compounds as wines and spirits it seems only ust to point to this meritorious exception." Town and Country Journal. "We have in these Schnapps a total absence of fusil oil which, combined with the great purity of all in gredients whence it is extracted, accounts for the unu sually healthy and invigorating quality which have already rendered this latest addition to the alcoholic list so justly celebrated." • .

LITTON FORBES, Resident Physician. „ Government Analytical Laboratory, Melbourne, March 15,1872. I have examined a sample of Wolfe's Aromatic Schiedam Schiiapps submitted to me for analysis. From the examination I conclude that this spirit is perfectly free from Fusil Oil, or solid matters ; is distilled from malt only,. as a sample of Holland's, gin cannot be surpassed. It may therefore be recommended for use in Hospital and private practice as a good aromatic stimulant. — (Siened) WiLLrAM John son, Govern ment Analytical cJhemist. We have appointed Messrs L. D.
