In Life Insurance, there are but TWO
main points to consider; absolute sat

AS to the first, The Union Central is
absolutely unquestioned.
AS to the latter, our very economical
management, together with the high
est percent of interest on our invest
ments of any life insurance company
makes it possible for US to furnish in
surance at the lowest cost.
That we are doing this is proven by
the net results given our many policy

chronic ULCERS
INDICATE BAD BLOOD

Where the blood is pure any wound
or liberation of the flesh heals "by
first intention" This is true because
nature has provided a constituent to
the circulation known as Plasma,
which joins and holds the place to-
gether until the fibres and tissues can
permanently knit and Intervene.
Whenever the ulcer becomes chronic
1t IS because this healing quality of
the blood has been impaired by some
1npurity in the circulation, and the
place remains open, injecting all sur
rounding flesh, until the character of
the circulation is changed. No sore
can heal where the blood is bad be-
cause the morbid impurities on which
1t thrives are constantly deposited
into it by the burdened circulation.
Cleanse the blood and the sore will
heal of its own accord, because then
its very source and foundation will
have been destroyed. S. S. S. cures
Chronic Ulcers of every kind for the
one great reason that it thoroughly
