the new disease apparently enters

a profound torpor which ordinarily

RECORD BROKEN.

The annual report of the Metropol-
itan Life Insurance company, which
is summarized today shows that the
METROPOLITAN broke all the worlds
records for business in 1919. During
the early part of the year, many
claims, traceable to the epidemic of
influenza, which extended roughly
speaking over the period from Sep
tember, 1913, to March, 1919, figured
in the mortality of the company, al
though general health conditions dur
ing the year were betetr than usual
The industrial death rate in 1919 was
the lowest in the history of the COM
pany.
The income of the company
amounted to two hundred and fifty
four million seven hundred and
twenty-nine thousand dollars-an in
more than fifty-four and half mil
lion dollars. The assets of the com
pany increased during 1919 by $780,
367 426 and total $S64,S21,S24. Divi.
dends to be paid to policy holders
this year are $7625,723.
Claims paid numbered 2S9125-an
average of one every thirty seconds
Of each busines sday of eight hours,
while the amount paid to policy
holders during the year was over
seventy-three and a half million dol
lars, or an average OF $505.93 a min
ute Of each business day.

shaken.

Time is the best test of the truth.
Here is Chickasha story that has
stood the test of time. 1t is a story
with a point which will come straight
home to many of us.
l. A. Milne, stationary engineer,
12O N. Tenth St, Chickasha, says:
A constant pain in my kidneys from
shoyeling coal into the furnace, caus-
ed me to have sharp catches in my
back. Sometimes the pain struck
me when l was STOPPING over and it
would be sometime before l could
straighten up. My kidneys were
weak and I couldn't control the pas
sages of the secretions which were
too frequent at times. heard
Doan's Kidney Pills highly recon-
mended and bought box at the
Owl Drug Store. By the time l had
finished the second box, l was en-
tirely relieved of the trouble and I
haven't been bothered with it since
OVER EIGHT YEARS LATER,
Mr.. Milne said: 'Doans Kidney
Pills permanently cured me of kid
ney trouble for | haven't had the
least symptom of it for two years.
