to the teu year premium paying policy.
TEN TEAR NON-FORFEITURE PLAN.
By this table a party after the second year cannot
forfeit any part of what has beenpaidin. Thus, if one
insuring by this plan for $10,000 discontinues after
the second year, he is entitled to a paid up policy, ac
cording to the number of years paid in, viz:
Second year, two-tenths of $10,000 [amount in
sured], amounting to $2,000, with dividend on same
lor life. - •
Third year, three-tenths of $10,000 [amount in
sured], amounting to $3,000, with dividend on same
Fourth year, four-tenths of $10,000 [amount in
sured], amounting to $4,OIK), with dividend on same
for life. ’ ... ,,
Fifth rear, five-tenths of $10,000 [amount insured],
amounting to $5,000, with dividend on same for
lift*. . ..
And so on, until the tenth annual payment, when all
js paid, and dividends still continue during the life
time of the assured.
Krastus Lyman, Esq., President of this office, is a
gentleman of the character and ability which the po
sition requires. It would be well if the leading office
m every life institution in the land were as well filled.
\\ ith .Air. Lyman at the head we have a guarantee of
correct and intelligent management. Secretary Snif-
fen works faithfully and well at his post, and with
good results. The branch offices of the Knickerbocker
arc all entrusted to first class men.

’FROM THE HON. THOMAS B. FLORENCE.
Washington, January l, 1864.
GentlemenHaving stated it verbally to yon, I
have no hesitation in writing the fact, that I experi
enced marked benefit ftom your Hoofland’s German
Bitters. During a long and tedious session of Con
gress, pressing and onerous duties nearly prostrated
me. A kind mend suggested the use of the prepare-
tion I have named. I took his advice, and the result
was improvement of health, renewed energy, and
that particular relief I so much needed and obtained.
Others may be similarly advantaged, if they desire to
be. Truly you friend,

PATENT
MICA CANVAS ROOFING.
T HE CANVAS ROOFING is adapted to buildings
of every description, in all climates, and can lie
applied to steep or flat roofs. We recommend its use
on Factories, Foundries, Store-houses, Cotton Sheds,
Railroad Depots, and upon all buildings where steam
is used and a Fire-proof Roof required.
The foundation of the Canvas Roofing is a heavy
hemp canvas, which is completely saturated and coat
ed on both aides with onr improved Water-proof
Composition, which excludes moisture and prevents
rot.
The upper surface of the Roofing is protected from
the action of the weather by covering it with the
ground mineral Isinglass or Mica, which is pressed
into the Water-proof Composit on, making a hard
snrtace, beautiful in appearance and a sure protection
against fire. The Mica being a reflector and uon-con-
ductor of heat, no Roof is so cool In summer.
The Canvas Roofing is made Into sheets seventy-five
feet long by forty inches wide, making a surface of
250 square feet in each sheet. This Roofing has only
to be nailed to the roof to make a Durable Fire and
Water-proof Roof.
PATENT
INDIA RUBBER ROOFING FAINT,
THIRTEEN YEARS IN USE.
This Faint has been in extensive use for over twelve
years, and It la the best coating that can be used for
Tin Roofing. Leaky Tin Roofs can be readily re
paired to last many years at a trilling expense, tbnt
will, in many cases, save the expense of a new Tin
Roof.
Roofing Faint mixed ready for nse, so that it can
be put on with the ordinary paint brush. Price $10
per barrel of 40 gallons.
Work done, or material sold to persons that wish
to do their own work, with full instructions to apply

Hoop Skirts,
J. W. Bradley’s Hew Patent Dnpex Ellip
tic (or Doable) Spring Skirt. -
T HIS Invention consists of Duplex (or two; Eilptlc
Pure Refined Steel Spring* ingeniously braided
tightly and firmly together, edge to edge, making the
toughest, most flexible, elastic and durable Spring
ever used. They seldom bend or break, like the sin
gle Springs, anaconseqnently preserve their perfect
and beautiful shape more than twice as long as any
Single Spring Skirt that ever has or can be made.
The wonderful flexibility and great comfort and
pleasure to any lady wearing the Duplex Elliptic Skirt
will be experienced particularly in all crowded Assem
blies, Operas, Carriages. Railroad Cara, Chnrch Pews,
Arm Chain, for Promenade and House Drees, as the
Skirt can be folded when in nse to occupy a small
place as easily and conveniently aa a Silk orMnslin
. A lady having enjoyed the pleasure, comfort and
great convenience of wearing the Duplex Elliptic
Steel Spring Skirt for a single day will never after
wards willingly dispense with their nse. For children,
misses and yonng ladies they are superior to all eth
ers.
The Hoops are covered with 2 ply double twisted
thread and will wear twice as long as the single yam
covering which is used on all Single Steel HoopSktrts.
The three bottom rods on every Skirt are also.Dooble
Steel, and twice or doable covered to prevent the cov
ering from wearing off the rods when dragging down
stairs, stone steps, Ac., which they are constantly
■object to When in nse.
All are made of the new and elegant Co-ded Tapes,
and are the best quality in every part, giving to the
wearer the most graceful and perfect shape possible
and are unquestionably the lightest, moat desirable,
comfortable and economical Skirt ever made.
