In countless homes throughout
Canada, where ;health and happiness
should • reign supreme, the peculiar
weakness and diseases of women are
responsible for at atmosphere of
hopelesSness and despair. 'This a;4-
ful condition is largely due to a tuts-
uaderstanding of the proper manner
in which to effect a cure for female
troubies of all kinds. Dr. Willianis'
Pink Pills have been more successful
in cases of this kind than any Other
medicine, and they, should be in ev-
ery home, and should be used by
every woman who is not perfectly
hearty and strong, Mrs, Fred. Mur-
PliY, a well-known resident of Pub-
nico Head, N.S., cheerfully beers
testimeny to the great value of Dr,
-Williams' Pink Pills in woman's ail-
ments. Mrs. Murphy says; -"A feta
years ago my health was completely
broken down, my troubles beginning
in one of the ailments which so fre-
quently afflict my Sex. I was a
great sufferer from violent attacks at
pain which wiaulkl seize me in the
stomach' and around the heart. It
is impossible for, me to describe the
agony of the spasms. Several times
the doctor was hastily summoned,
my friends thinking me dying. I was
wholly unable to perforin my house-
hold work, and was under medical
treatment all through the .summer,
butwithout benefit.. My appetite
lett me; my heart would palpitate
violently ' after the least' exertion,
and I was pale and emaciated.. MY
husband urged me to try Dr. Wil-
liams' .Pink Pills, and procured mea
supply. Atter using the pills a cou-
ple of weeks, I could feel that they
were helping me, and after using
seven bottles, I was -fully restored
to health, From that Vine until the
• spring or 1901 I enjoyed the best of
health, butat that time I felt run
down, and suffered from pains in the
back. I at once got some more of
Dr. WilliarnS' Pink Pills, and they
- soon put me all right, • and I am now
feeling better than, I have done for
years. 1 cannotpraise these pills
too much, nor cau I too strongly
urge those who are ailing to test
their wonderful health restoring vir-
tues." •
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills go right
to the root of disease by making
new, rich blood, and restoring shat-
tered nerves. In this way they cure
such troubles as the functional ail-

GREAT YIELD OF GOLD.'
Expert Compiles the World'
Figures for Ten Years.
A remarkable return has just been
published showing the gold output
of the world for the ten years 1891-
1900. The figures' are the compila-
tion of Malcolm A. 0. Fraser, head
of tho registrar general's office of
Western Australia. Kr. Fraser is an
authority on, the matter, and for
some time has been collecting the in-
formation which. he now gives to the
public. He has received reports, as
far as he is aware, from every gold -
producing country in the world,
most of which information has been
obtained directly from. official sources
FIGURES IN .00.MPARISON.
His details are divided into five
sections -Australasia, Africa, 71.m -
erica, Europe and Asia. The growth
in the yield of gold in the ten years
covered is nothing short of extraor-
dinary. Taking them in their' order,
it is found that in 1891 ?Australasia
produced 1,180,376 ounces of gold,
valued at £6,288,288, and in 1900,
3,563,123 ounces, valued at £15,-
185,206.
Africa. has risen from 710,265
ounces, worth £3,017,015, in 1891,
te 8,708,550 of the value of Z15,-
753,768 in 1899. The year 1900 is
excluded for obvious reasons.
America gives the remarkable ad-
vance in the decade from '2,150,207
ounceE, to 6,104,344 ounces, worth
£9,133,199 and .L28,981,729 respec-
tively.
Europe moves up from 1,254,648
ounces,valued at £5,329406, to 1,-
340,116 ounces and £5,692451 in
value respectively, and Asia from
396,881 ounces and Z1,686,719 value
to 892,805 ounces and £3,790,270.
GROWTH IN THE TOTAL.
The grand total shows that while
in 1891 5,991,877 ounces were pro-
duced in 1900 the aggregate was 12,-
270,151 ounces. Even these figures
de not show the actual -progress, as
the .1900 record was 'affected by 'the
cOmpulsory elosing of the Rand
mines.' A more accurate coinparison,
ln the circumstances, would. be with
1809, when the total yield was 14,-
900,145 °anew. .

able one and' worthy .of the con:.
sideration. of students' of: economic

It depends on the user whether'
two forms of these -alcoholic drinks
and tobacco -shall be regarded as 44.leterious, but each undoubtedly. con-
tains a constituent which in itself is
poisonous. But as none would deny
that taking stimulants to excess is
ruinous alike to mind and body, •we
may pass •away from this .thorny
controversy with Hood's remark
that tea, like wine, may be poison,
"but in another ,shape, what Matter
whether man he die by canister or
grepe?" Some denounce tobacco .as
much as alcohol, and the weed has
ha.d more than one struggle for exis-
tence since. it was. introduced • from
the new into the old world.
Tobacco undoirbtedly contains very
smart quantities of an active alka-
loid poison, .called nicotine, so if
taken in excess, in whatever form, it
is pernicious. But the lover of his
pipe will find comfort with Mr.
Thompson, who maintains that the
• moderate use of tobacco, "has in
most cases even beneficial results,"
• acting as a solace and a comfort to
both rich and polar. Green tea is
• said to be smoked by ladies needing.
• stimulants, and the habit. is sup-
• posed to be growing, with harmful

THE 1.3RWISH A.MBRICA,
• At the sixty-eighth annual meeting
of the , British America Assurance
Company held in the head ofhee at
Toronto the other day, a highly sat-
isfactory report was presented. The
not profits for last year were $99,-
590; $65,000 in dividends Was dis-
tributed at 6 and 7 per cent., and
$80,544 carried to the reserve fund,
width now stands at $612,001. Hon.
Geo. A. Cox, the president, said that
the not gain in premiums for la.st
'year • was $127,159, and the reduc-
tion in losses $16,124. Reviewing
the business of the company for, the
past eight years,.the president show-
ed that during that period the net
premiums in Canada had .increased
from $173,951 to $$51, 505, an ad-
vance of 100 per cent., while the av-
erage increase of companies doing
business in the same field, aceerding.
to the Government reports, was on.-
ly 40 per cent.
• BUYING IN QUA,NTITY. •
The merchant in buying goods in-
sists on getting what he buys from
house that is best fittedto supply
his Wants. If he tan gather from
the markets of the ' werld the best
products, he feels satisaed over What
he is doing and over the prospect for
results. His idea is that he can get
better values from, those who are
doing large business and. equipped
for promptly handling - his orders.
This is reasonable on the part of the
merchant but many men in business
overlook this when it conies to the
matter of talking to their custoniers.
They talk to their customers over
the counter about their qualifica-
tions for giving values because they
are away from a business center or
because their rent is low and their
expenses. light. They fail to remem-
ber .that people like to trade where
• there is lots af business going on,
where there are large transactions,
and where they may get the advant-
ages of large purchases by a large
dealer. It is better to keep before
the minds of the public the fact that
you aro .doing a largo business and
are able to handle all transactions
because �f' the great extent of your
buying and the ability you have to
get into the markets where great
values . are possible. Don't overlook
this point because your customers
will appreciate what it. means to
them.

• The Sixty-eighth Annual Meeting of the shareholders of the British

ANNUAL REPORT.
Your Directors have pleasure in presenting,the • Sixty-eighth Annual
Report andFinancial statements, dliuly vouced for by the Auditors of
the Company.
. There has been a moderate increase in the Premium Income in all
branches; the Canadian Fire Business, particularly, showing a consider-
able increase over that of any previous year, thiibeing mainly due to
the advanced rates which have been obta.inedee...-0a ".
The balance of Revenue Account, 590,590.00, has been applied as
fo1lows:-$65,000.00 for two half- yearly dividends, the first at the rate
of Seven Per Cent. and the second at the rate of Six Per Cent. per An. -
num, $4,045.26 written off office furniture and Securities, and the bal-
ance, 530,544.74, added to the Reserve Fund, which now stands at
$612,6J1.96.
Although considerable progress has been ina.de during the year in the
direction of advancing rates throughout Canada and the United States
the results of the business, owing to the increase.in fire losses, have not
proved satisfactory to Companies generally, and measures are now being
taken for further advances which should bring about a material improve,
ment in the condition of the fire insurance business on this continent.

- The Revenue Account shows that. after deducting losses and expenses from
the premiums for the year, there is a balance, or underwriting profit, of $58,-
795. This, with the earnings from interest and rents, $40,705, makes the total
balance at the credit- of Revenue Account $99.500, Compared with the preced-
ing year the fig. urea before you show again in premiums (after deducting rein-
surances)of $197,159, ancl a red$1

Ti
his ncreased income is derived ninthly front the fire business, and as stated
in the report, is chiefly to the better rates that have prevailed. In the Mar-
ino Branch there has been little changein the volume of business we have done,
but while the income from this source represents less than one-fourth of the to-
tal premiums received, vie are indebted to thielirancit for nearly one-half the
year's 'profits.
• ' Taking into consideration the large amount of fire business transacted, the
results of the year -although they show a marked irnprovetnent on 'those of the
year 1900-.0s:tenet be regarded as affording an adequate margin of profit. but
those of you who have ,noted the records from month to month of the serious
fires in Oa:tads, and the United States, beginning with the conflagration in the
business Centre of Montreal in J armory last, must, 1 think, regard the ac-
counts presented as more favorable than might have been, anticipated. Wo can
at least claim that they will bear comparison in their general results with those
-.shown by other Companies opehtting in the same fields as ourselves, and this,
is perhaps the best test of the judgment exorcised by the officers and agents
of the Company in the . prosecution of its business. The problem as to what
rates will be adequate to meet the losses of any one year Is a difficult -1 ntight
say an impossible -one for the most experienced underwriters to solve. They
can only meet the changed conditions that confront thent from time to time
by readjusting their rates in accordance with the loss records which these
Changing conditions produce. The adverse _020)0de/ice of Companies engaged
in the fire business on this continent for the past two years have shown the
necessity of increases • on many classes of risks, and *e have benefited to a.
considerable extent froln theadvanced i saes which prevailed during the year
1901., end in view of the action taken during the past ton days by all the
leading Companies doing business in the United States to bring about a more
radii:al advance than has hitherto been attempted I feel that we may safely
an ticipate that these Unproved conditions will have an even more marked effect
upon tho• business of the present year.
In reviewing the business of the past Year, as well as of the preceding
eight. years duringwhich r have had the honor of occupying this chair, i
, it s
very gratifying to Observe the progress whielt the Company has made in its
Jiro business in Oane,da„ as well as the profits which have acerued upon this
no tle ithStending the losses by the conflagrations of the past two years. A
'Oompaity which has ..• been doing - business -as the British America has -for
upwards of two-thirds of a century should, we have felt, occupy a prominent
position in connection with the business of its home field, and senile an income
equal to that of some leading British 0 tikes which carry much larger amounts on
Individual risks, might not be looked for, it should cowl -italic! It liberal share
of the business and bo able to show results equal to, if not 'setter than, the
average results of Its competitors. The progress which the 'British America
has made in this , direction under its present management is indicated by tho
following figures: Xn 1.802 the total fire - premiums of the Company in Can-
ada were $17,8,951; in 1901 they amounted to $851,505. Those figures repre-
sent the net premiutns (after deducting reinsurances), so that during these
nine Years the Income of the Company in this branch has inet.eased upwards of
100 per cent,, while the total therease, of all Companies reporting to the
department is about 40 per cent. It is still more . gratifying to lied ire=
the' anneal returns of Oolnpanies doing businessin Canada., published by the
