ST. ELIZABETH HOSPITAL.

II is said that the Hospital marks the adj
vance OF civilization. The modern Hospital
is certainly much more than "a refuge
for the sick and injured" Many Of the
problems Of medical treatment, OF surgery,
etc, have been worked out within It's walls.
IL is the seat OF all that is best in practice
OF in remedies, and the fact that Dr. Har-
ter's Iron Tonic is used in so many of the
best hospitals is a tribute TO its merit Years
ofexperience and patient trial have demon
strated It's usefulness and reliability for
convalescents, in cases OF debility, old age,
loss Of appetite, impoverished blood, etc,
and hence IL has been generally adopted.
Don't be fooled New and miraculous
remedies are put on the market every day,
with a great noise and a bewildering lot
OF faxed testimonials Don't bo deceived,
YOU know that Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic Is
all right OF il would have been crowded out
of the market years ago, along with the
many Others that have come and gone
IL has not only survived but fourished be-
cause it has genuine merit

Harter's Iron Tonic in st. Elizabeth Hospit-

a Good Exhibit.

The magnitude of the figures con
tanned in the statement Of the business
of the Equitable Life for ,he year end
ing Deceuber 81. 1901, causes one TO
wonder how such results could be
accomplished in the short space of
that societys history. The very size
of the figure is startling; and outside
of the statements Of the large insur-
ance companies. amounts of such vol
ume are rarely seen except in govern
ment trade reports.
All the items show large increases
over corresponding items of the year
previous, and in all cases establish a
record mark in the Igsiness operations
OF the society
Pc. haps the most satisfactory ele-
ment of the exhibit is hat which deals
with The surplus Magnitude of busi-
ness could weA be dispensed with,
though it is desirable If obtainable
without excessive expenditure and if
it is Of good character. But the very
existence OF life company depends
ON the holding of sufficient assets to
balance tie liabilities and all in ex-
cess of the requirements of the re.
serve and other debts goes to make
the company more secure in it's posi-
tion and standing
