not benefit nervous debility by

nervous debility. It assists digestion,
increases the appetite, regulates the cir

new life to nervous invalids.

The Hartford is behind the New

written by the latter is guaranteed
by the former. The surplus Of both
companies is the same, in fact one
surplus does duty for both.
The New York Underwriters has
a liability in San Francisco Of
$5,077 900, with a surplus of $4,026,-
249. The liabilities of the three
companies are $13,000000 and with
a surplus of 100000 instead of
$S,000,000, as published figures
would indicate.
The Hartford has extremely
strong financial hackers and it 10

duced in the next legislature COM

write policies only under their own
corporate title and shall hold no

Large companies frequently hold

anything but peaceful in that vi

Murphy, Allen demanded the rent
and she barricaded herself within

building, when Mrs. Murphy picked
up her skirts and made a record

Patrolman Scott arrested Allen.
