"Now, sir" said the attorney for
the plaintiff, in oross-e examining, "ih

consider your company liable for
damages in any action Of this kind,

Judge.
The lawyer rose.
"We object, ii the court please,
on the ground that it is immaterial,
irrelevant, entirely aside from the
point at issue, foreign to the matter
in hand, and has nothing to do with
this case. We object, your honor,
because it has no possible bearing
on this action. What difference can
it make, one way or the other? Itis
a point that was not brought out in
the direct examination. Aside from
al ] this, your honor, we object for
the reason that the question is not
pertinent. 1. is wholly extrsneous."
Here he sat down and the other
attorney rose.
"We insist, your HONOR" he said,
"that the question is entirely rele-
want. 1t is a part of the res gestae
in this case. We want to know,
your honor, whether this man thinks
he owes any duty to the public, or
whether he owes no duty to anybody
but himself and the stockholders of
the road. We have right to es-
tablish the fact if he holds the one
opinion, and we have right to es-

said the court.

Put II In. the Bank.

If there was any way to get at the
truth, we would venture the asser-
tion that there is more than $250,0O0
of cash distributed among private
rural homes in York county.
This money, for the most part is
kept between mattresses, under
hearthstones, in broken jars, in
trunks and chests and in various
other places of conceslment, in
amounts ranging from a thousand or
so dollars down.
When these people are asked why
they do not put their money in
banks, they are apt to offer some
kind of excuse to the effect that
they have known banks to fail, and
otherwise show lack of confidence in
the existing order of things and in
themselves.
1t is true that banks fail but the
percentage of those that fail is very
small compared with those that do
not, and we will venture that where
one dollar has been lost by deposi-
tor in this country, on account of the
failure of bank, hundred dollars
has been lost from old jars, from be-
tween mattresses and from under
hearthstones at the hands of thieves.
Large amounts of money kept at
home in places of insecure conceal
ment are standing invitations to the
cupidity of burglars and assassins,
and are frequently source of more
or less danger to the persons of their
owners
No isolated farmer or business
man in this section should keep more
than fifty or hundred dollars about
him at time. He should keep the
balance, if he has more, in a bank ;
or, if he would make himself doubly
safe let him scatter it about in two
or thl ee banks. Such thing as all
the banks of given neighborhood
failing at one time has never been
heard of--not in this part of the
country.
Besides the considerations sug-
gested, the man who deposits money
in banks finds another important ad-
vantage. The banker helps him to
keep his cash book, and his checks
furnish convenient and indisputa-
BILE record of every cash transaction.
No man unacquainted with this con-
vepience can fully appreciate its value
until he has given it trial.
We are not offering these sug-
gestions for the benefit of the banks
but for the benefit of individual pos
SCISSORS of money and for the benefit
OF the community at large.-York-
