1 Confidence!
If you do not believe in your ability to succeed,
success will be unknown to you. Before greater
prosperity can come to you, you must first believe
in your capabilities. Self-confidence—that’s what
we all need. Self-reliance is the outgrowth of
self-confidence.
£q it is with us. We have confidence in
our many patrons and we enjoy their reliance upon
us in a financial way—and, too, it is the confidence
of our patrons in this Bank that has added to its
success—we appreciate your confidence, we seek
to please. “Make this Bank Your Bank.”

Wilkins-Jackson.
One of the most beautiful wed-
ding ceremonies ever witnessed
in Carrollton was solemnized
last Saturday afternoon at six
o’clock at tbe Methodist church,
when Miss Perle Jackson be-
came the bride of Mr, Grover C.
Wilkins of Dallas.
The church was beautifully
decorated in ferns, vines and
white carnations. Shortly after
the appointed hour the wedding
party erftered the church as
follows: Misses Edna Jackson,
sister of the bride, and Evylin
Shrader of McKinney came tirst
and took their places at the
piano; Miss Shrader sung in a
lovely voice, “I love you truly,”
while Miss Jackson played the
accompaniment; next, while Miss
Jackson played Mendelsohn's
wedding march, the wedding
.party entered, headed by Rev.
J. J. Morgan of Dallas; next
came the ushers, Ben Jackson,
Philip Wilkins, George Jackson
and Will Ritchie; these were
followed by tbe bride and groom.
The bride wore a beautiful
tayored traveling suit of blue
and carried a shower of bride’s
roses und lilies of the valley.
The groom wore the convention-
al black.
Immediately after tbe cere-
mony and after the congratula-
tions of many,the happy young
couple, accompanied by several
automobile loads of friends and
relatives, journeyed to Dallas,
where they caught the b:15 Katy
train for Ban Antonio, Houston,
Waco and other Southern points.
After a week’s honeymoon they
will be at home in Dallas.
The bride is the daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Frank Jackson,
Sr., one of the oldest and most
highly respected families in this
section. She was educated in
Kidd Key college at Sherman
and is one of the most popular of
Carrollton’s younger set. -

young dentist-mechauic of Dal

The love and esteem in which
this couple is held was shown
by the numerous and beautiful
presents received and their
many friends wish them a long,
pleasant ’and prosperous life.
This paper is greatly pleased on
this occasion to add its hearty
good wishes to those being so
freely extended.

I pressed in an ultimatum sent to
him by President Wilson’s per-
sonal representative,John Lind.
Gen. Huerta was notified early
today that unless he returned
an answer by <i o’dlock this eve-
ning to the effect that he would
prevent the newly elected con-
gress from convening and, fur-
thermore, make this action
known to the members of the
diplomatic corps by midnight,
the United States would have no
further parleying with the Mex-
ican government.
Mr. Lind waited until fi o'clock
and , received no answer. He
then made arrangements for his
departure on a train leaving for
Vera Cruz at h o’clock. It was
announced, however, that Gen.'
Huerta had one more chance—
that if, he took the action de-
manded by midnight the fact
that he failed to reply to Mr.
Lind within the time specified
would be overlooked. Mr. Lind
Rev. D. B. Allen and 'family

that Huerta intended to accede."

left the message at the presi-
dent's office.
It was intimated tonight at
the palace tl?atGen.. Huerta bad

THE REMEDY: RELIABLE GOODS.
They help lower “living -cost ” It costs less in
the long run to build well, because repairs are
really waste and waste raises the cost of living.

My VV. Holt Harris.
A 'modern business concern
with its wide-awake eyes on
the balance sheet cannot over-
look the fact that advertising
pays big dividends. Printer’s
ink, distributed through the
columns of the local paper, is the
best advertising medium, and
qo merchant can climb the lad-
der of success without it.
Truth in advertising is manifes-
tly essential. It creutes confi
dence, and confidence is the
first requisite for securing buy-
ers. Honesty create* good will.
The good will of tlie purchaser
is both desirable uml necessary
in successful selling.
Successful selling consists
not only of furnishing the buyer
with the commodity he desires.
It is the least of the service he
performs in selling. The man-
ner in which the article is trans-
ferred to the purchaser, the
courtesy, kindness and decency
with which the transaction is
made is' supremely important,
A gixnl town always stauds for K00*! cows, and thus increase the

But a g(xid country is not always
advertised by a g<x>d town. The
country must be rich, capable of
producing large crops, and it may
be already yielding abundantly
and still the town may not be
prospering by it. There may be
a lack of progressive farmers
surrounding the town, and the
business men may not see the
advantage of building tlie town
with the wealth from farms and
ranches nearby.
A gixid town is where there is
a spirit of neighborliness among
town people, and a mutual tone of
co-operation between city people
and country people. A live town
cannot be had without live busi-
ness men an<\ progressive farm-
ers who create the wealth of the
Hack and Asked for His
Money and Got It.
A man recently tried out tlie
guarantee which Sander’s Drug
Store gives with every bottle of
Dodson's Liver Tone. He
bought a bottle and then went
back to the drug store und said
the medicine hadn’t helped him.
This druggist just reached in-
to his cash register and took out
a half dollar, tlie price of the
bottle of Liver Tone, and handed
it back to the gentlemen. But
he didn’t take the money. He
owned up that he was just trying
tlie guarantee and, as a matter
of fact, he had found Dodson’s
Liver Tone the best remedy for
constipation and biliousness lie
Imd ever tried. “Why,” he said,
“my wife wouldn't be without a
bottle in the house for anything,
it’s the beat tiling In the world
for the whole family, and tlie
medicine I prefer to take or to
give to my children fora lazy
liver.”
Sunder,s drug* store sells
Dodson's Liver Tone and
guarantees it to stnrtthe liver
without violence. It is taking
the place of calomel everywhere.

Then the creamery patrons use
the cash to improve their homes,
buy their supplies, and thus in-
crease the volume of business
done in the town. The bankers
are strengthened because of more
deposits, and those who have
been credit customers of mer-
chants become liberal cash buy-
ers. This insures better, mads,
better schools and homes, and as
a result, a united community
where the progressive spirit of
co-operation prevails.
Substantial business men will
soon hear of such a town and
come with their cupitul and pro
gressive ideas to malm their
home in this town. Farmers who

and country offer will make their

led so that there is some profit to
those in business, but it can
never equal the wealth that is
produced at home and exchanged
for necessities that are to be
consumed at home. This kind
of exchange is necessary for the
permanent prosperity of the
people upon whom the town is
dependent.
The business men of the town
should never lose sight of the
fact that it is the farmer’s part
of the wealth that must build the
town, and whenever unnecessary
means or exiiense are encourag-
ed -in marketing the produce of
the country, the town will sooner
or later be the loser. And when
the business men fail for any
reason to offer the proper induce-
ment for the farmers trade,
some other town will prosper at
the local town’s expense. This
being true, it follows that co-
operation is the way hi build the
town and advance the surround-
ing country.
