DID YOU EvEB

IN W o
Stop to calculate how much
money you spend foolishiy?
Suppose you do it and then
make up your mind to put
this amount in bank for a
few months and see how
much you will have. Just a
dime a day amounts to 1865
year and most Of us spend
several times that amount.
Let us make you a PROPOSE
ton. Suppose you come get
one of our Home Savings
Banks and drop your odd
change in, say a dime or tive
dimes, a day, and let us pay
you interest on ii. In a few
months you will have a nice
bank account, and you will
have formed the savings habit
and started well on the road
to riches.
We pay interest on your de-
posits and are as anxious to
get the small accounts as the
large ones.

Easy Way to Make Money

About the easiest money making
scheme ever seen Is at jerome, Ariz., in
the opinion of l. T. Stoddard, secretary
of Arizona. "There is a brook that runs
out of the lower workings of Senator
William A. Clark's United Verde cop
per NINE" he said. This water percC
lates all through certain sulphuretiC
copper and gold deposits in the bowels
of the earth, and as result when ii
runs out of the mine into a pool ar
ranged for it's reception it is heavily
loaded with liquid copper. The mining
people dump scrap iron Of all kinds
into the pool, and the presence OF the
iron in the water precipitates the cop
per in solid form to the bottom OF the
pool, where it is picked up in irregular
shapes. l was told the last time was
in Jerome that Clark's people pick ou'
of that scrap iron pool about 5000 or
500 worth of practically pure copper
every twenty-four hours. That's wha'

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they can- not reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deaf- ness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that can not be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.

A VALUABLE exchange says that the thing to do is to pull to- gether, help the town, help the country, help yourself. The prosperity of one is the prosperity of all. Pull down your neighbor and hurt yourself. Put a wire across the path of progress and you'll break your back. Be helpful, big hearted and broad gauged. There is nothing that hurts business so quick as the prominent presence in the world of a tight faced, claw listed, hawk eyed, cat-footed, penny squeezing man, a cross between a glue pot and a vinegar jar, who never spends dollar until he sees a dollar and ninty- eight cents in sight.
