THE AETNA LIFE.

The Aetna Life Insurance Company of
Hartford, Conn, publishes in another
column its fifty-t third annual statement.
This shows that the business done in
1902 was one of noteworthy growth III
every direction, and the resulting big
figures put the Aetna Life as the leader
among the great life insurance companies
Of New England
The total premium income for the year
was the large sum of $40, 224, 260, and the
total payments to policyholders was the
sum of Sc, 368 099
Few realize how immense and widely
distributed are the benefits which result
from life insurance. Figures of disbJTse-
ments to policyholders are read with in
terest, but they are so large that most
persons fail to comprehend their sig
nficance. But let one try to conceive
what this vast sum of $6.36S O99 meant to
the army of Aetna policyholders in 1902.
Omitting Sundays and holidays. there
were about three hundred working days
in the year. Assuming that each working
day consisted of eight hours. the Aetna
Life paid to its policyholders:
Every minute, S44.21.
Every hour, $2,653OO.
EVERY working day, 81, 22I,00.
Every week, 1922 46300.
Every month, $3.50, $500.
During the whole year, Sc, 36S ,099.00
The whole of the splendid sum was dis
tributed from Maine to California, from
the Lakes and Hudson's Bay to the Gulf
of Mexico. In most instances the money
went to people who actually needed ii.

u. S. SENATOR FROM SOUTH Carol INA
s.....o Recommends Pe-ru-na
For Dyspepsia and Stomach Trouble
Catarrh of the Stomach Is Generally
Called Dyspepsia = Something
to PreduCe Artificial Biges-
ten Is Generally Taken.
Hence, Pepsln, PanCreatin and a Hest
of Other Digestive Remedies
Has Been lnyented.
These Remedies Do Not Reach the
Seat of the Difficulty, Which
Is Really Catarrh.

X-U. s. Senator NJ. G. Butler from
South Carolina was Senator from
that State for two terms. In a re-
cent letter to The Peruna Medicine Co.,
from Washington, ID. c., says:
az can recommend Peruna for dys-
pepsia and stomach trouble. Thave
been using your medicine for short
period and I feel very much relieved.
1t Is indeed wonderful medicine DO.
sides q good tonic. IN. c. Butler.
The only rational way to cure dyspep-
sa Is to remove the catarrh. Peruna
cures catarrh. Peruna does not produce
artificial digestion. 1t cures catarrh and
leaves the stomach to perform digestion
in a natural way. This is vastly better
and safer than resorting to artificial
methods.
Peruna has cured more cases of dys-
pepsia than all other remedies COM
bined, simply because 1t cures catarrh
wherever located. IL catarrh is located
in the head, Peruna cures it, If catarrh
has fastened itself in the throat or
bronchial tubes, Peruna cures it. When
catarrh becomes settled in the stomach,
Peruna cures it, as we'll in this location
as in any other.
Peruna is not simply a remedy for
dyspepsia. Peruna is a catarrh remedy.
Peruna cures dyspepsia because 1t Is
generally dependent upon cntarrh.
