A QUEER EXHIBIT.
"a National Bank Under Suspension at
the Worlds Fair.

the Worlds Fair.
By Southern Associated Press.
WORLDS FAIR GROUNDS, CHICAGO,
May 9.-Among the exhibits at the
Exposition today was National
bank under suspension. The ex
hibit was not an attractive or pleas
ing one in the eyes of the foreigners
who had money on deposit but fears
of not getting back are unfounded.
The Worlds Fair branch of the
Chemical National bank, OF Chicago,
now in the hands of Uncle Sam.
usually opened it's doors On the
second floor OF the pavilion of the
administration building, at o'clock.
at 9:25 came telephone message
from Cashier Baden at the down
town Office Of the suspended bank
to close the doors of the Exposition
branch. This was done and soon
there was e line OF anxious, COM
planning depositors, some repre-
senting themselves, and others
States or concerns. They wanted to
get in close to the paying teller's
window, but he talked to those who
understood English in reassuring
way and some went away. The pay
ing teller said he would have paid
the checks presented before the
doors were closed, but he had not
the combination to the vault.
Treasurer Sesberger Of the Ex-
position was an early caller. He
said he had small account with
the bank, but was confident every
depositor would be paid in full and
quickly. The question Of the sue,
cessor to the Chemical National
Bank at the Fair is one to be de.
cided by the directory at its mex
meeting. The United States Gov
ernnent National Commission, the
Missouri Board and other States
have money IN the bank. Th'
Chemical National Bank paid $40
! 900 for the privilege OF doing busi
ness in the World's Fair grounds
1t has always done good busi
ness. The troubles Of the ban
, people will begin when the foreign
ers from the midway plaisance vi
lages. who speak little or no en- 6
lish, and have excitable nature
learn Of the suspension. The ban
has q good deal Of their money i
large and small accounts, and tt
= deposiiors will want it back IN

WHY

Why do you forget so often:
Why do you speak words that you so often re-
greet?
Why do you take up with new acquaintance
forgetting old friends?
Why do you not use clear judgment instead of
too often acting upon Impulse?
Why do you persistently neglect your health
when 1t is your duty to take special care of it?
Why are You so careless when sudden chill
headac he tired feeling. and general disgust with
life come over you?
Why do you not stop to think that little timely
caution of the right kind will overcome all these
troubles and put you in possession of good health
and feelings once more?
Why do you not remember that the best phys.
clans. scientists, and the leading people OF the
land all recommend pure whiskey as the proper
thing to take at such times ?
Why do you not recall the fact that there is only
one pure medicinal whiskey kno wn to the world,
that is exceedingly popular. that 1t has been In
use for twenty years and that it is Duffy's Pure
Malt?
Why do you not denounce any druggist, grocer,
or dealer who tries to offer you other or in
ferior whiskey saying 1T is Just as good?
Why do you not always insist upon having just
what you require. Just what on desire. and just
what you know to be the purest the best and most
eficient
