lwmrnßiiia«ini i amrti mnirwiriri mm mil iri iiimim* Insurance. NORWICH UNION LIEE INSURANCE SOCIETY, Empowered by special Acts of Parliament, and by Royal Charter'in the reign of Queen Anne, to undertake all business connected with the Life Assurance, IS A PURELY MUTUAL OFFICE. The Norwich Union Life Society has no distinct body 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 j the risk of bankruptcy, a certain and direct pro vision for his family. RESOURCES. I Irrespective of the immense annual revenue of this Society, graduaUv 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 these matters ; and although apparently higher than some offices, assurers should 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 j that time has proved to be secure against all chances. LOANS. I Surrender values are given for Policies of three years . standing, or loans oranted ox SECuntTV of same, j FOREIGN TRAVEL Permitted to all parts of the globe in properly decked Tessols, and in time of peaeo. PARTICIPATION OF PROFITS.

One-hal* the first five years' premiums may remain unpaid upon whole Life Policies. T. B. KENDERDINE,EsQ.,M.D., Medical Referee.

Important Public Notice- WOLFE'S AROMATIC SCHIE DAM SCHNAPPS, Registered under Trade Marks" Act, 28 Vie. No 9. The extraordinary Sale, widespread popularity, and wonderful results of Wolfe's Schnapps prove in disputably that, the introduction of a perfectly pure beverage is appreciated by tlie Australian public. Tlie medical profession being tlie 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 im infusion of decayed vegetable matter, which so often produces that obstinate form of Fever and Ague which so frightfully undermines the consti tution, THE Si HIED AM A ROMA TIC S( HNAPPS will be found absolutely infallible, while in cases of Dropsy, < !ravel, 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 by the Australian Press: — Sydney Morning Hirald. " In these days when alcoholic liquors are solargely consumed, and consumers are so much in doubt whether their systems are not being gradually impaired by adulteration, it is well that one at least of the popular beverages of tlie period is reliable as pure —that is Wolfe's Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps. It is some thing to be assured by physicians and other of the scientific cognoscenti that we have in this article a genuine extract which, taken in moderate quantity and under ordinarily healthy conditions of body, affords a beneficial stimulus to the animal functions ; 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 anil 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." Bell's Life in Sydney. " Experience has proved the value of Wolfe's Schie dam Aromatic Schnapps as a stimulant at once in vigorating and harmless, and it may be used with much benefit by those requiring a pleasant and effective remedy. The medical officers of the Sydney Infirmary have tested its merits practically in various cases, and bear willing testimony to its excellence, and we, there fore, feel no difficulty in recommending to the notice of our readers the Aromatic Schnapps, not only as a pure and agreeable occasional beverage, but, what is of far more importance, as a really pleasant medicine. Important Testimonials. " Sydney Infirmary, Nov. 11, IS7O. "Ibeg to state that I have, with the permission of Honorary Physicians, given your Schnapps to several patients in our wards. 1 have no hesitation in stating that I consider yonr Schnapps a most excellent Stimu lant ustcl Diuretic, and of great value in cardiac and renal affections, and 1 believe they will cmntuallij supersede all other Spirits in the treatment of the above complaints. LITTON FORBES, Resident Physician.,, Government Analytical Laboratory, Melbourne, March 15,1572. _ I have examined a sample of Wolfe's Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps submitted to me for analysis. From the examination 1 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. — (Signed) William Johnson, Govern ment Analytical Chemist. Wo have appointed Messrs L. D.

I have also submitted the sample to patients who have been accustomed to this description of stimulant, and it has been universally liked and approved of as a strong, pure, wholesome spirit, and as such 1 can re commend it. — CnAIU.ES F.

Nervousness: Its Nature and Cure- What is Nervousness ?— Various answers might be given to this question, according to the constitution and knowledge of the individual. Strong healthy persons, whether medically educated or not, generally regard nevonsness as more or less an "imaginary complaint;" it is sometimes only believed to^ be real when the patient is either dying or dead. The best answer to the question, probably, is this—nervous ness IS AN UNNATURAL CONDITION OF THE NERVOUS system. Sometimes this unnatural state is accompa nied with considerable bodily weakness, loss of flesh and loss of strength ; but ill most cases there is in the earlier stages of the disorder no outward sign of weak ness. The sufferers are found in both sexes ; they often have the bloom of health upon their cheek ; they are surrounded by kind friends, yet existence to them has no charms, for they feel that they cannot enjoy it. Without intending it, they annoy other people about the merest tribes ; if they encounter some person unexpectedly they fool confused, afraid, and alarmed: the heart beats violently ; the hand shakes when writing, and the whole frame at times experiences a complete trcinulousiiess. The intellect also is sometimes clouded, the memory fails, the judgment becomes indistinct, the will capricious and undecided, the tates vitiated, the imagination broods upon unpleasant topics, the spirits arc either very low or very excited, the ordinary duties of life become burdensome, society is shunned and business ne glected. , . A Strange Spectacle— It is ncertaily strange, but no the less true, that perfectly sane persons in the prime of life, with firm step and healthy countenance, may occasionally be met with, who, in spite of possessing all the advantages of education, religion, ample means, and kind friends, nevertheless are victims of tlie nervousness above described; unhappy themselves, they render othqr people unhappy. Why is this. What cause has operated to change the cheerful, active, obliging, unsuspecting, and uncomplaining youth into the unhappy, drowsy, listless, suspicious, and gloomy misanthrope ? Many cases, or one cause only, may operate to produce this sad state : the cause may be either mental or physical, or both combined. Attempts to cure nervousness by means of ordinary tonics have so frequently proved fruitless that the leading physicians now for the most part rceoinnieiw-.-. £ hygenic means, such as exercise in the ffi&t\thff>^ v regular habits, sea bathing, the cold bain - ij^r^r change of air and scene, as in travelling. If ahVese fail, as they often do, what is to be done ? 27ie Answer will be found by carefully perusing the following Work :— Ninth Edition, Post Free, Is. -Id. Nervous Debility : Its Cause and Cure- With Plain Directions for Perfect Restoration to Health. Applications for a copy of tlie above work mustbe accompanied by the amount in New Zealand or other tamps, also a properly directed envelope.
