Il feel as young
now, at thirty, as I
did at eighteen years
of age"

That is part of the statement of one
woman, mother of six children, who
found new life by the use of DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription. 1t is not the or
binary cares of the family, nor the natu-
raj obligations of motherhood, which
make women prematurely old. But it is
the womanly diseases, draining away the
vitality, and undermining the strength,
which take the roundness and supple
ness from the form, the bloom from the
cheek and the brightness from the eye.
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription cures
those womanly diseases which rob women
of youth and beauty. 1t establishes reg
ularity, dries e~nfeebling drains, heals
inflammation and liberation, and cures
female weakness. 1t makes weak women
strong and sick women we'll. 1t brings
back to the mother the lightheartedness
of her bridal day. This is the testimony
of thousands of women who have re-
newed their youth by the use of VIA
vorite Prescription

Evil of Rebates in Life Insurance

Another evil incident to this hot
housing process is thepremium rebate.
In some states, rebates are illegal,
and policies rebated may be declared
void. theoretically, all managers
frown upon rebates. Actually, nearly
all companies know that rebates are
given by their agents, and they wink
at the sin. In n respect the insur-
ance rebate is more to be condemned
than the railway rebate. 1t is given
to men who ''know the ropes" to
smart business or professional men
who are aware that agents are so eager
for business that they will cut the first
years premium 80 to 10 per cent, if
necessary. Most of these i%nsurants
can afford to pay full premiums. But
the poor fellows, the mechanics and
farmers and others who are not in
touch with affairs, usually pay the full
premium, which they can ill afford to
do. This discrimination in favor of
well-to-do i%nsurants and against men
of small means seeking to provide
protection for their families out Of
their slender salaries is unjust, in
decent, and should be made criminal.
To such a pass has it come in this
mad scramble for new business that
in every city may be found men who
carry their life insurance simply from
year TO year. By inducing several
companies to bid against one another
they secure great reductions of the
first-year premiums, and at the end
of the year permit their policies to
lapse and look about for other COM
panies willing to take them at the cut
rate. In this way they carry their in
surance at much less than it would
cost to take out policies and maintain
them year after year.-From "Ameri-
can Life Insurance on Trial. by
Walter Wellman, in the American
Monthly Review Of Reviews for Octo-
Der.
