Failed IN INSURANCE.
BE Could Not Stand the Terrible Test
and Was. Rejected.
FAMILY HAD TO SUFFER
Why 1t Is So Many Men and Women Are Rejected
in Their Applications for Life Insurance.

II have been refused insurance, and
my family must suffer"
The speaker was well-known mem
Der of the Shoe and Leather Exchange,
OF New York.
You don't mean TO say that the COM
pany has refused to grant you a policy"
exclaimed his friend, in evident aston
ishment.
Eyes" was the sad reply, 1.-The medi-
cal examiner has reported against me,
and now my plans for providing for my
wife and children are ali destroyed"
The terrible significance of this poor
mans condition can be better realized
by referring to the statement recently
made by DR.. Lambert, General Medical
Director Of the Equitable Life Assur-
ance Company. In explaining why so
many applicants for insurance are daily
rejected he said:
I'VE reject 16 per cent Of the applica-
tions made to US for life insurance, and
l have saved the entire expense OF this
medical department by the rejection
alone of applicants who have diseased
kidneys, and who died within two years
after l rejected them"
The startling importance OF these
words cannot be too widely proclaimed.
The fact that such an awful condition
exists in this land should arouse thought
fu men and women to sense of the
great danger which threatens them.
Such cases can be found on every hand.
Mr.. Edison L. Weston, a well known
resident of Port Henry, y. Y, recently
said: Some years ago / suffered from
pains ia my back and throughout my
body, but thought it nothing serious
until about that time desired 10 obtain
q life insurance policy, and Of course had
10 undergo a medical examination. My
application was promptly rejected by
the doctor who pronounced 1t 'oauly
developed kidney disease. My case
was considered dangerous, and l at
once looked around for the best cure. l
decided what that was, began taking it,
aad am pleased TO say | am to-day
We'll Mdus anu AllC uDNhb - 90 w. 49,
for since then, without any trouble, l
have taken out a life insurance policy.
The medical examiner pronounced me
sound as a trout and I owe it all to
the remarkable power and efficiency OF
Warmers Safe Cure, which restoaed me
to health, aud enabled me to pass a per-
feet medical examination"
These facts show the insidious nature
Of kidney or Bright's disease. II has
often no symptoms OF its own. but, I'M
fortunately, the symptoms Of almost
every known disease. The victim OF
Bright's disease goes along unsuspect-
ing until in many cases il is too late.
The case Of the eminent professor who
was lecturing to his class and showed
them the analysis OF Brights disease
urine, and also that in a condition OF
health, is in point. He suddenly paled,
trembled, and said: Gentlemen, l have
made a painful discovery, myself,
am victim of Bright'S disease" and in
less than a year be was dead.
The lesson which should come to all is
that the greatest care and attention are
necessary to preserve these great and
vet delicate organs Of the body. Both
men and women are victims OF this
dread disease, and they alone are wise
who realize the fact and act in time.
