A Profitable
Business.

There is no business in which it is
possible for a man without capital to
achieve such financial success as in
Life Assurance. In no other occupa-
ton can man without any resources
other than brains, energy and integ-
rity secure So great a pecuniary re-
ward for his labor. The possibilities
of this business to an agent are linn
tied only by his capacity and willing
ness to work, and, especially is it
true, if he connects himself with u
large well known company such as
the Equitable Life of New York. one
of the strongest financial institutions
i'm the world.
The Equitable has assets OF over
1881 ,OOO,O0O.O0, and surplus of over
$7l ,OOO, 100000. 1t is the strongest in
the world.
Correspond with the undersigned
in regard to representing the Equita-
BILE in Rock Island and vicinity. a
liberal contract to the right man;

fortune and founding a fortune. Few
men chance upon fortunes. The fort
mes we know about are not found but
founded on a certain substantial basis.
The nature of that basis of fortune Is
we'll set forth in the advice given by
successful merchant to a young man
who asked, vWhat is the first requisite
to making a fortune?" oThe first re-
quisite to making a fortune" said the
rich man, us health" vThe idea that
fortunes are made suggests toll and in
dustry and skill. Nothing can be made
without these. But a weak man cannot
toll, and industry is incompatible with
ill-health. If you want to be strong
remember that all physical strength
comes from food and that the amount of
strength extracted from food depends
upon the ability of the stomach to di-
gest food and assimilate its nutrition.
The man who takes care of his digestion
is, in general, taking care of every other
organ of his body"
SUCCESS AND THE STOMACH.
The merchant who gave the above
opinion may not have been much of a
physician but he was good deal of
philosopher. He had seen men with
success almost within the grasp, break
down because of "stomach trouble"
He had theorized the saying that the
Hweakest must go 90 the wall into the
saying that vthe man with the weakest
stomach must go to the wall" because
no man is stronger than his stomach.
The man who will learn this lesson of
success has taken a great stride to his
goal. Health is the first prerequisite of
success and health in general means a
sound stomach and a good digestion.
Look at the logic of the matter. Food
is a mans life, his strength. Physical
life is sustained by food. But the fact
that a thing can be eaten doesn't make
it food. Many physician practising in
the tenements of a city says of failing
men or women. UWhat they need IS
nou,ishrng food" Shipwrecked men
eat scraps OF leather, the bark of trees,
anything to satisfy hunger. But this is
not food in any true sense because 1t
contains no nutrition. All food must
be considered in relation to its nutritive
