Insurance. NOEWICH UNION EIEE INSURANCE S©CIETY. This Society, originally established in 1797, offers advantages to insurers which Companies of more recent standing are unable to do. In proof of the public confidence at home in the principles and conduct of the Norwich Union Fire Office, its Business has steadily INCREASED to ONE HUNDRED MILLIONS Sterling £100,000,000. The LOWEST RATES only are charged. This Office is distinguished for its liberality and promptness in the settlement of claims, £2,608,116 having been paid to insurers for losses by fire. BANK CREDIT being established in New Zealand, as also a large reserve fund in the Bank in cash, Losses will be paid here promptly, The Society's Agents can accept any insurances, and fix the limits and the premiums without having first to consult Directors. NO CHARGE for Policies, Endorsements, or Surveys. A LOCAL INSTITUTION so far as the investment ot its Receipts in the Colony of New Zealand, and to this national advantage may be superadded the support of a large and wealthy English office. In effecting Insurances against Fire it is of the first importance to select an office of High Charac ter, Long Standing, and Stability. Every information as to the Society's Eates and Principles, or as to Special Rates, may be obtained at the Society's Offices. J. B. GRAHAM, Agent. G. a GRAHAM, Inspector. Offices: Vaile's Buildings.

The Agent in announcing that he continues to receive orders for Assurances, both on Life and every description of property, begs to draw attention to the vast resources of the Company, and the standing which it takes among the large Insurance Establish ments of the British Empire.

IT is not generally known that Cook ing can be accomplished much quicker, cleanlier, better, and cheaper by Gas than by any other method. The Gas Stove is portable, gives perfect and imme diate control over the heat, requires but little atten tion, is always ready, keeps the kitchen and house cool, and is only alight when actually in use. The difference between the cost of cooking by Gas, and by the ordinary mode, is much greater than usual at the present time ; for while coals have lately advanced in pries 50 peh cent, Gas has been ke wuced to 12s Od per 1000. The following statement, which is the result of many experiments, shows the relative cost of boiling a Gallon of Water in a copper kettle by means of a recently lighted coal fire,' and by a Gas Stove, and the time required in each case : — Coal used Weod TJme ToW ptrton. used- Cost. With Fire.. 411b3- l-sthofld 1 hour. l£d. With Gas.. 4 cubic feet at 12s 6d Twenty a . per 1000. minutes. 4 • Therefore, by the use of Gas, there is a saving of nearly two to one in money, and economy of two thibds in time, and the avoidance of trouble in lighting, smoke and dust. A_ choice selection of Gas Stoves for boiling, frying, broiling, stewing, and roasting can be seen, and the above statement as to cost proved by application to E.
