The above Department affords the following ad vantages, which are secured by special Acts of Legislature, over any other office in the colony:— 1. All policy holders participate in the profits of the Department. 2. The Premiums are lower by at least 7s (seven shillings) per cent, than those of any other office. The Security is infinitely superior to that of _.ny private office, the consolidated revenue of the colony being available for any deficiency. 4. The whole of tbe money paid in Premiums is retained in the colony, whereas in private offices so much capital is sent to foreign parts. 5. Policies for wife or family are absolutely pro tected from creditors. 6. No policy is forfeited by non-payment of Premiums after first year, so long as sur render value will insure the amount. For example, a person aged forty, insured under a Policy on which five annual payments bad been made, would not forfeit it on account of non-payment of Premiums until the expiration of five years and eighty-six days from date of default, provided that the other conditions of the Policy had not been violated, and it could be renewed at any time within such term, on paying up arrears with interest; or if , it became a claim within that time, the Policy would fclfffe paid, less arrears with interest. No Policy need If / nereforo be sacrificed-iifconsequence of the pressure ||V of any temporary loss Deployment or other mone- WS^Tlnvestnt'ent of Bunds is by special Act of - Parliament in Government Debentures.
