One Dollar Saved Represents Ten
Dollars Earned.

The average man does not save to
exceed 10 per cent of his earnings. He
must spend SO in living expenses for
every dollar saved. That being the
case he cannot be too careful about
unnecessary expenses. Very often a
few cents properly invested, like buy
ing seed for his garden, will save sew
eral dollars outlay later on. 1t is the
same in buying Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy 1t
costs but a few cents and a bottle of
1t in the house often saves a doctor
bill of several dollars. For sale by all
druggists.

the shipments have been A. 43 SO increase

President Henderson OF the Reading company
says that no orders have been issued 70 shut down

that IS FOR repairs. According 20 well Informed
coal men the idea that there has been an over
production OF coal is erroneous. The brief period
OF cUlness which the companies have been ex-
periencing has been due to a shifting in the
son when coal bins filed Fearing another

purchased his supply in the spring instead OF IN
