M, F & M Savings Bank.

Take care Of he pence and the
pounds will take care Of themselves" is
an old though trlte saying. L times like
the present however, it is as essential t.
deposit in a reliable monied institution as
30 hoard what is deposited. To distinguish
the bogus from the genuine-the solid and
substantial from the sdyenturous-is ALSO
lutely necessary. 1t is therefore with the
more satisfaction under these circum-
stances that We cordially recommend to the
readers Of the WoRKISGMANs ADVOCATE
the claims Of the Merchants, Farmers and
Mechanics Savings Bank, located at IS
South Clark street; and which is pre-
sided over by gentlemen Of financial ability
and standing coupled with business integ
rity men whose honesty and Judgment
in the investment Of the funds Of their
depssitors have never been called in ques-
ton, and whose practical knowledge Of
banking furnishes an earnest that no spec
ulative enterprise wonld receive their sane
ton or support. These are facts which
speak volumes, and should have due
weight with every inan or woman who has
. dollar to deposit
There are thousands in our city who this
winter will appreciate the advantage Of
having balance on the right side Of the
ledger. To all such it is needless to ex-
patiate on the benefits accruing from saw
ing their surplus wages to those who
have failed to do their duty our advice is.
no matter how small the amount-make a
beginning, and deposit the first dollar you
can spare il the NJ, F. & NJ. Savings Bank,
and you will never regret having taken
our advice.
