Two Giants

On the one hand-Scrofula, the ancient disease,
known the world over, gnawing at the vitals of
every nation, existing in the blood of nearly
every family-descended TO US from our fathers
or acquired by our wrong habits and indulgences
powerful, obstinate, almost mpregnable.
On the other hand-Hood's Sarsaparilla, the
modern medicine the great enemy of impure
blood, accomplishing the most wonderful cures
of scrofula, salt rheum, etc.,-the conqueror of
disease, economical, reliable, sure.
If you suffer at all from the Giant of Disease,
conquer him by the aid of the Giant of Health.

1t Is with great pleasure that am able to state

increase in the value Of some Of our property Is
very encouraging and adds confidence TO an al
ready well established rue-"That real estate
securities are the wisest and most conservative
Notwithstanding our brief existence as q. cor
porativn we have passed the stage Of experiment.
1t has been proved that the claims set forth as an
inducement Tor the associates to incorporate have
been more than realized. With the increase OF
capital from the association Of 81 900 600. 90 10
capital OF $4,000 10000 as a corporation, IL has
been enabled to buy for cash at greatly reduced

penses and improved our earning power.
During tn past year the company paid S1.75
quarterly per share and 81 extra dividend De-
cember !, making $500 per share in 1890. With
the continued success now attending this eompa-
