quo THE JNHABITAXTS K OF QARDIFF AND JJISTBICT. fllHOSE who appreciate a highly-finirhed Artistic JL Portrait, we, in confidence of giving entire « £ isfaction, teg to solicit>of i^toetnovxot their Patronage. The Photographic Art is no to put even cheap UXSATISF ACTORY Photo- graphs in the fire two or three times before resolv- ing to get a good one. A Genuine Photograph is a Work of Art, and requires an Artist ot Ability, with large experience, together with a variety of Modern Studio Accessories, ere an Artistic Poi trait can be executed. In this respect we can truth- fully say that we have endeavoured to procure the Best of Appliances, regardless of expense, m order that we might secure a Perfect Portrait in Style and Finish. But (what is more important still) our Portraits are executed from the Best of Photo- graphic Materials. Even our Mounts are specially made for us, and must be guaranteed chemically Pure, with real gold stamping, and bevelled edge. Thus, it will be seen, every precaution is taken by us to ensure their better permanency. Year by Year we have continued to increase our Business, and this year we have been obliged to open large Premises in Pontypridd for our country Patronage, in order to avoid the overcrowding and incon- venience experienced during the past year at Duke-street Studio, and also to bring about the quicker dispatch of orders entrusted to us. We quote our Prices fearlessly, knowing that they are the lowest that can be consistent with Photographs "ORTHY OF THE NAME. Yours respectfully, A.

BRIDGEND. [124 TO K TINE As S U R A-N C E. THE great obstacle to the universal adoption of Life Assurance amongst salaried officials is the fact that in most offices premiums remain payable during the whole period of life, long after the productive years have passed, thus becoming a serious burden, whilst., at the same time, the surrender value are so entirely disproportionate to the amount paid as premium tha.t payment can only be discontinued at very serious loss. For instance, persons who are entitled to retire with tensions from their employment constantly nnd them- selves obliged to remain at their posts, being otherwise unable to provide from their lessened income the necessary sum for the maintenance of their whole life policies. 14.' t +• These obstacles are overcome ny tne lontme Policies issued at ordinary life rates by the EQUITABLE LIFE ASSURANCE SOCIETY OF THE UNITED STATES. The Society's Policies, with Twenty Year Tontine Periods now maturing, show (after furnishing protec- tion for twenty years) a return in every case or more than the total amount paid in premiums. All twenty Year Endowments show H. return of the premium paid, with interest at rates between 6 and 7 per cent. per annum.
