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 ■ the risk of bankruptcy, a certain and direct pro? vision for his family. -; , RESOURCES. Irrespective of the immense annual revenue of this' ' Society > graduaUy 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 j although apparently higher than some offices, assurersl, 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 oi a concern that time has proved to'be secure against all chances. LOANS. Surrender values are given for Policies of three years I standing, or loans granted on security of same. FOREIGN TRAVEL Permitted to all parts of the globe in properly decked I vessels, and in time of peace. PARTICIPATION OF PROFITS. In this office it is anticipated] that persons entering at 20 will be relieved from further premiums at 44 40 „ „ „ 60 60 „ . „ .„ CO Medical Fees are paid by the Company, and there are no charges for Stamps, Policies, &c. One-half the first five years' premiums may remain unpaid upon whole Life Policies. T. B. KENDERDINE, Esq., M.D., -.-'■'"• Medical Referee.
