100000 CAPITAL.

With a large surplus, securely invested
w under the sanction and approval of the
Comptroller of Public Accounts, of the State
of Connecticut.
This company has also complied with the
very cautious and stringent laws of this State,
in relation to foreign Insurance Companies.
1t was incorporated by the Legislature of
the State of Connecticut, in May, 1850, with a
PERPETUAL CHARTER, and commenced bust
ness on a capital Of two hundred thousand
dollars; the whole of which has been invested
in securities of the highest character.
Those who contemplate making life insur-
ances, should, first Of all, satisfy themselves
of the character and stability of the Company
they may select. The interest of the assured
in the stability and permanent prosperity of a
Company, in the security and certainty that it
will fulfill its engagements, is of incompara-
bly, greater Importance than the trifing sGring
that may be made by p.ying inadequate pre-
miums.
The principle of Life Insurance is based on
sound mathematical calculations, and admits
of no variation. Ultimate security, being the
primary object to be obtained, this Company
will do business on the lowest rates of pre-
miums that can be adopted, and afford requis-
lite security to, the insured, and perpetuity to
the institution.

DISEASE VANQUISHED
By Dr.. Ro5aek's Scandinavian Rem.d;.s.

BIZ Dr.. Ro5ack's Scandinavian Remedies.
A FTER years of study, analysis and expert
IL ment, DR., Roback, the eminent Swedish
Physician, succeeded in producing a medicine
from the mountain herbs of his native land,
which acts directly upon the causes of disease
in the blood, and by restoring the corrupted
fountain. of life to q condition. of health and
purity, expels disease from the system whsr-
ever it MAY be located, or whatever may be its
character. Indigestion, nervous complaints,
epileptic and other fits, coughs, consumption
in its early stages, sore throat, bronchitis, fever
and ague, asthma, low spirits, sexual incapa-
city, feminine weakness, pricking of the skin,
symptomatic of paralysis, rheumatism, neu-
ralgia, tumor, cancer; diabetes, lasaituds and
debility. diarrhea, and all other disorders Of
the organs of respiration, the liver, the kid
news, the stomach, the nerves, or the muscu-
lar fibre, are unerringly cured by this prepa-
ration. 1t is to the materies rnoTbt, or seeds
OF disease, what an alkali is to an acid; it neu-
tralizes them with absolute certainty, while 1t
the same time it regulates the secretions, re-
moves distractions from the bowels, creates
appetite, renews bodily vigor, and regensrates
every animal function. Such is the nature,
such are the effects Of DIR. Roback's famous
SCANDINAVIAN BLOOD PURIFIER, which, taken In
conjunction with his BLOOD PILLS, will not only
obliterate the most painful diseases, but pre-
vent their recurrence, and lsngthen life be-
yond its ordinary span.
To prevent imposition, purchase only of re-
spectacle druggists, e.c., of regular agents, or
of DIR. Roback, sole proprietor and manufac-
turer, 6, Fourth-street, Cincinnati.

and DIR. Roback's Blood Purifier and Pills act
specifically or that fluid. They are composed
of rare Swedish herbs, and form a sovereign
antidote to the injecting and corrupting princi-
pie of disease. Not only do they cure indi-
~gestion, bilious complaints, female weakness;
.connubial ~incompetency, nervous disorders,
lung and throat affections, diarrhea, etc., ETC.,
but they cleanse, purify and invigorate every
organ, and put the whole animal machinery in
such a vigorous condition that it is enabled to
resist and throw off the influence of bad air
and other causes of sickness.

LL- 6AAiLiOr, Univ, wv w 4OSVs
y DR.. RoBAcK-Dear Sir: l have read in the
newspapers many accounts of cures effected BY
your Soandayian Remedies, but l consider my
own case at least as interesting and as marvel
GUS as any of them. So far as you are cop-
cerned, one testimonial more or less is of little
consequence. Your fame is established, and
my statement cannot add to your celebrity.
But for the benefit of my fellow creatures, |
desire to make knownthe facts. When called
upon you, at the instance Of dear friend, on
the 21st Of March last, l had been nine years .
sufferer from catarrh. The irritation OF the
nerves and membrane Of the head was so in
tense tbs sometimes it almost drove me crazy.
/ could not sleep, and was never free from I'M
pleasant sensations. At various times i've
different physicians had attended me, each one
treated me in his own way, but none Of them
did me any good. l despaired Of ever seeing
another we'll day, and when l called at your
consultation rooms, had very little hope OF re-
lief. By your advise, l entered Immediately
upon a regular course Of your Scandinavian
Blood Purifier and Blood Pills. l was encour-
aged by tine cheerful, hopeful way in which
you spoke, and 1 resolved strictly to follow
your direction. In less than q week, all the
worst symptoms of my complaint began to
take a milder form, and so continued to i'm
prove from week to week until, at the end of
three months, my head was entirely relieved,
and every trace of the catarrh had left me.
Still, however, l continued to take the RENE
dies for nearly six weeks longer, because l
found they were building az my strength and
fort:fying my constitution. Six months have
passed since the cure was finished, and ] have
had no sign of q relapse. l should be glad to
see this letter, OF the substance of it, in print,
for the guidance of others.
Yours, with heartfelt gratitude,
Mrs. AUGUSTUS COoCH.
