RICH 6 POOR
ALI lME

Itching Piles is one of the most persistent plaques that the world has ever known, Men and women, old and young rich and poor suffer alike, and for ages it was generally believed that there was no cure for the exasperating malady. Now and then preparations have ap- peared that would relieve the itchiness temporarily, but that was all. There seemed to be absolutely no real cure.
 That is all changed now, however. Doan's Ointment will cure Piles, whether itch ing, protruding or bleeding. It is also a safe and absolutely sure cure for eczema and all other itching diseases of the skin. Doan's Ointment Is pleasant, harmless and abso- luteiy sure remedy for all itch- ing diseases of the skin.

 Cash or instalIment? ?'' Carter asked. looking at me in some astonishment.
 Well. the whole trade isn't exactly clenched," admitted, 'sbUt it's the same thing. She has taken it for three weeks on trial, and says she'll probably keep it.''
 ''Who?"
 Mrs. Peter Stott-lives up nearly Up- posite your woman
 First Carter sat down and laughed, then he made some remarks that were extremely ungentfemanly. I didn't like such talk, land told him as much, writes Holman F. Day, in Woman's Home Com panion
 You blamed foo1,s he shouted, that woman has wosked every sewing-ma- chine agent who has come along when he has been gullible enough. It's her old trick. She will never buy a sewing machine, for she doesn't need one. She does her sewing each season on the ma chimes that the fool agents leave there on trial. Now you go right up and take back that machine. She'll claw you down in good shape, but it will teach you to look out for the snides after this. You'll find as general ruIethat the really good customers always cut up rough at the start off Now hustle right up and get that machine"

VALUE or AN ONION CURE.
It May Not Be Aesthetic, But It Is Ex
 cellent


 ceilent.
 The idea of an onion cure may not strike the fancy of the aesthetic; how ever, the experience of those who have tried it is that 1t works wonders in restoring an old-facked system to it's normal state again There are three kinds Of doses in the onion cure, or three onion cures, as you may choose to put it. One is diet of onion. The other is onion plasters. And the third Is onion syrup.
 For instance an onion cure breakfast includes poached egg on toast, three tablespoonfuls Of fried onions, and a cup of coffee. Luncheon of sandwiches, made of Bos- ton brown bread, buttered and filled with finely chopped raw onions, sea soned with salt and pepper, makes the second meal on the schedule. For sup per the onions may be fried as for breakfast and eaten with chop and a baked potato.
 The strange efficacy of onion is well known to the singers of Italy and Spain, who eat them every day to inn prove the quality of their voices and keep them smooth Onion plasters are prescribed to break up hard coughs. They are made of fried onions placed ts-sween two pieces of old muslin. The plaster is kept quite hot until the pa Sent is snug1y in bed, when it is placed On the chest. to stay there over night. Onion syrup is dose that can be bought of any druggist, and is claimed by some to be unequaIed as a cure for cold in the chest.
 All this is probably quite true. For so De done up with onions, both inside and out. would be enough certainly to chase out any self-respecting cold

Life Insurance

The summary of the reports of the life
Insurance companies doing business in
this State as gwen out for publication
by the State Insurance Department on
SATURDAY il almost startling. All the
large life insurance companies IN the
country conduct operations here and the
statement as issued covers, therefore,
practically the life insurance business OF
the United States.
The gross assets of these life insur-
ance companies reached at the close Of
the year the enormous figure of 81 ,062,-
430, s04, an increase during the year of
S1S2 ,SO6,?4O. Their gross income was
SASS, 1922, an increase Of S5O,SO0,e SOP.
The disbursements for the year were
1912 ,o3l ,555, an increase of s25,750, $40
compared with the preceding year, most
of the disbursements, of course, repre-
sentng the sums of money paid for in
s,lrance claims. Four hundred and
ninety-five thousand seven hundred
and twentv-nine policies, standing for
increased insurance of 1857 9l0,547, were
issued during the year
are few people who can fully compre-
bend what they mean. Theya are monu
ment to the wealth, power and saving
instincts of our people and to the popu-
laritv of life insurance as a method of
investment. There is this thought, too,
that inevitably occurs in connection with
the matter: Much the larger share of
the increase in assets of these great cor
porations is in personal property rather
than real estate; that is, it is in money
As these life insurance companies accum-
ulate cash to this vast extentthey must
invest it, and there is annually, therefore,
an investment demand for securities pro-
ceeding from the life insurance corpora
tions which is conservatively estimated
at not less than sl50OoO,0 600, focused
very largely, Of course, upon the local
marke, in Wall Street. Taking this as
basis and adding to it the demand for
securities by fire insurance companies,
trustees. executors, To say nothing of
that of private investors. we get some
idea of what Walt Street calls the coun-
try's power of financial absorption.
