A doxi with a can to his tail may run
just as fast as if he was chasing a rabbit-
but it isn't half as much fun for the dog.
The man who spends all he makes may
be just as hard a worker as the one who has
a growing account at the bank, but the
< saver is the one who has the incentive to
hustle. Have a definite aim in life. Start
an account with us. and while you labor,
watch your dollars increase.

latest ocean disaster, the ramm- ^ R.v Co, the jury re-
ing of the Empress of Ireland! turned a verdict Friday morning
by a collier Tit * Nordstat in i awarding the plaintiffs damages

Empress went down in ten min-
utes and over 1 cMK> lives were
I
lost. The accident took place in
fog. A full investigation is be-

to be fixed on the Captain ot the
Xordstat. The disaster is almost
; equal to that of the Titanic.
Shipbuilders have been trying
to build an unsinkable ship
which is an impossibility. So
long as there is ocean travel,
there will be marine catastroph-
es every now and then, wit!
1 appalling loss of life.

The Value o! Acquaintance
Establish Tour Credit by Becoming a Regular
and Consistent Bank Depositor.
One ot the foundation stones for the succcess of a
business man is the acquaintance and friendship of other
men and one of the most important things is to get ac-
quainted early with the officers of a good bank. This
applies especially to the young man who is striving to
get ahead. Very often he needs assistance and if he is
the right sort of man, and is well acquainted with his
bankers, he will have no trouble of obtaining assistance.
AS BANKERS; We solicit your banking business on the
merit of our service, the solidity, safety and strength of
our financial standing.

Narrow Escape
in Runaway.
On Monday afternoon Miss
Eleanor Kelly, daughter of Mr
and Mrs. Roy Kelly, had a nar-
r >w escape from being injured
in a runaway accident. She
was driving the horse out of the
alley by the family residence
when the buggy hita post, and
as it started to turn over, she
jumped out to escape injury.
The turning over of the buggy
frightened the horse and he ran
away making kindling wood out
of the buggy. He ran down
Buck street dangling the buggy
shafts as he went. He was stop-
ped in front of Stone & Hitch-
•ock's drug store. Strange to
say the horse was not injured.

K very one has annoyances. The
housekeeper finds them in lazy
servants or on a rainy day the
stove wood will not burn; the
floors get soiled and the children
fret. The business man finds
them in an unfaithful partner,
and we all find them in one thing
or another. We have found
them in appointments and failures
but life is too short to be trifled
away in sight and worrying over
the trials and rougn places in our
way. There are too many good
tnings to enjoy. Just think of the
bright things all around us. It
matters not how poor we may be,
still the bright sunshine is ours,
the flowers and the little birds
that sing for us. And there is too
much to do in one short lifetime.
As we once heard an aunt sa^;
"Well, we hear so much about
good words, why doesn't someone
do something goody" And it is
high time we were all doing it.
