Insurance. "VTOEWICH UNION FIEE Xl INSURANCE SOCIETY. ; ■ r* 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 Oflice is distinguished for its liberality and promptness in the settlement of claims, £2;608,115 having been paid to insurers for losses by fire. BANK CREDIT being established in New Zealand, as ako 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 ojl 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 impbrtartce to select an office of High Charac ter, Long Standing, and Stability. ■ ■ ' --.(I:).;:-' ._ K.:.J.-T."

"ROYAL INSUEANOE COMPANY. FIRE AND LIFE. CAPITAL.. .. TWO MILLIONS STERLING, Of which £289,095 IS PAID-UP AND IN HAND, With, in addition, the UNLIMITED LIABILITY Of the Shareholders. The ACCUMULATED FUNDS amount to £2,235,518, and are immediately available to meet any unusual calamity. The ANNUAL INCOME exceeds £1,000,000. The Agent in announcing that he continues to receive orders for Aiwurancei, 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. Unaided by amalgama tion with any other Company its success, with one exception, is unprecedented in the history of In surance Societies, and enables it to rank with the most eligible offices now in existence with respect to the advantages offered to the public. IN THE FIRE BRANCH The rates of premium are equally low with those of any Company doing business in the Colony, and the Company will ever distinguish itself by promptness and liberality in the settlement of losses. THE LIFE BRANCH Offers' the Guarantee of an ample Capital, together with its accumulated funds, exemption of the Assured from liability of partnership to which Policy-holders in Mutual Offices are Subject, Moderate Premiums, Division of Profits every five years, three-fonrths of which are appropriated to participating Policies. At the last distribution the surplus of assets over, lia bilities was £240,956, and enabled the Directors to de clare a REVERSIONARY BONUS of £7 10s per cent. In cases of removal of residence renewal premiums will be received, and claims settled, by any of the Company's agents throughout the world. ,' Prospectuses and all information can be obtained on application. „ , GEO WM .

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 Stpve 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 per cent; Gas has Bern itfe pucEi) to 12s Od per 1000. The following statement, which is the result of many experiments, shows the relative cost of boilinga 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 Wood Time Total per ton. use<L cm Ployed- Post- With Fire.. 4\lbs. l-sthofld 1 hour. l£d. ' i ii i - With Gas.. 4 cubic feet at 12s Cd Twenty a . , per 1000. minutes. * ' Therefore, by the use of Gas, there is a saving of nearly two to one in money, and economy of two thirds in time, and the avoidance of trouble in lighting, smoke and dnst. 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.
