LAS HoRAs NDcRAS

Las horas negras, las horas
durante las cuales hay muchas
personas que todo 10 ven de
color negro, son las horas de
la digestion. De las doce a las

tienen un NAL estomago sufren
verdaderas torturas. Pero hay
un remedio simple. Con algu-

indicaciones que las mismas
acompaf1an, volveran esas ho-
ras negras a color de rosa.

CIRCULAR LETTER
Is MADE PUBLIC
PRESIDENT ORR OF NEW YORK
LIFE SAYS THE AFFAIRS OF
THE COMPANY ARE BEING
ECONOMICALLY CONDUCTED.

New York. February 10.-A circular let
ter issued to policyholders by Alexander
t. Orr, president of the New York Life
Insurance company, was made public to-
day. Mr.. Orr goes into the present con-
dition of company affairs, declaring that
they are being economically conducted.
Concerning the reports that the policy
holders funds were used in favor of
one of the tickets for trustees at the
recent election. Mr.. Orr declares the conf
pany's representatives were forbidden to
use such funds or to take up time of
salaried employees In business hours and
to the best of his knowledge Not a dollar
of the policyholders' money was improp-
ery spent"
lie also stated that the charge against
the company Of impeding the progress of
the election is equally untrue. On the
subject of the company's finances, Mr..
Orr says that in 1905 there was a heavy
shrinkage of bonds Of unexceptional
quality, but the company suffered little
as a result, because its statement placed
the bonds at their book value.
otwithstanding this depression, he as
serts that the assets Of the company in
creased nearly $39,00O000 In 1906 and the
gross excess of constitutional liabilities
is nearly $10000.0O0 more than 1t was
at the close of 1905.
President Orr closes his letter with the
following statement: IF my wishes arc
observed and / think they will be. my
connection with the company. In any off,
cial capacity, will be short"
