AN INSTITUTION
That 10 Constantly Talking of Des
Moines and Iowa.


From TIE Des Moiyses ReView.
The Equitable Life Insurance Company
Of Iowa reports that the year of 1891, just
closed, was the most successful and pros
porous the company has experienced since
its organization, twenty-five years ago.
The gain in new insurance written was GO
per cent over the amount written during
the previous year. The interest earned
paid over 80 per cent of all expenses, taxes
and death losses. The assets were in
creased over S62, 900, and the mortality ex-
perienced was but sixty-nine one-hun-
dredths of one per cent to mean amount at
risk; record that will not be equalled by
any other company.
The Equitable is fast coming into promi-
hence throughout the territory in which ii
is operating and with the splendid record
it made in 1891 and the fact that all of its
policies are secured contracts, not mere
promises to pay, it is bound to grow in ia
vor with those desiring safe and profitable
life insurance.
The Equitable is operating in eleven
states besides Iowa, and every circular II
sends out, and every agent it has is an ad-
vertisement for Des Moines and Iowa. 1t
is an Iowa institution, managed by Iowa
men, and there is no reasonable reason
why it should not receive the almost ex-
elusive patronage of our citizens, as the
company is credit to both our city and
state.

Let us hope that the people who habitu-
ally disregard their health will reach that
desirable place, and avoid the locality
which is least desirable as an eternal resi-
dence on account of the heat and surround
ings generally. But while we tarry in this
vale of tears, why should we voluntarily
endure the tortures of the dyspeptic when
systematic use of Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters will rid us of the atrocious malady
which-unless physicians are very much at
fault-tends to shorten the term of our ex-
istence. Heartburn, biliousness, constipa-
ton almost always accompany this COM
plant and are sympathetic of it. These
are all extinguished by the Bitters, which
also conquers completely malaria, rheuma-
tism, nervousness and debility. Since the
appearance of ''la grippe it has shown q
singular mastery over this formidable com
plant that has carried off so many of our
brightest and best.
