nLERICAL , MEDICAL , AND GENERAL \ J LIFE ASSURANCE SOCIETY . The Assured mar reside in most parts of the world , without extra charge , and in all parts by payment of a small extra premium . The small share of Profit divisible in future among the Shareholders being now provided for , without intrenching _ on the amount made by the regular business , the Asstteed will hereafter derive all the benefits obtainable from a Mutual Office , with , at the same time , complete freedom from liability , secured by means of an ample Proprietary Capital—thus combining , in the same office , all the advantages of both systems . Five Bohttses have been declared ; at the last in January , 1852 , the sum of £ 131 , 125 was added to the Policies , producing a Bonus varying with the different ages , from 24 $ to 55 per cent , on the Premiums paid during the five years , or from £ 5 to £ 12 10 s . per cent , on the sum assured . The next and future Bonuses may be either received in Cash , or applied at the option of the assured in any other way . « On Policies for the whole of Life , one half of the Annual Premiums for the first five years may remain on credit , and may either continue as a debt on the Policy , or may be paid off at any time . Claims paid thirty days after proof of death , and all Policies are Indisputable except in cases of fraud . Invalid Lives may be assured at rates proportioned to the increased risk .

They aro slight but well written , and the book ia altogether very rncely put out of hand . Its title is ' The Fairy Godmothers . ' "—Guardian . "Approaching in tone and tendency to the fairy tales of Andersen . Most commendable as a fairy book , with a beautiful illustration by an amateur artist , Miss L . E . Barker . " —Athasneum . " A very pretty little book , showing a great deal of talent and originality ; indeed , tho children aro so real , so Hko our own small friends and acquaintances in all their ways and sayings , that it gives an additional quaintness to the story to find them 8 iibjoct to tho influence of fairies . The lessons are all admirable . "—The Monthly Packet . London : Georgo Bell , 186 , Floet-street .
