YOUR DUTY.

Will / advance my home town the
most, by making myself individu-
ally as strong as possible? AS the
whole is made up of parts, will you
not be advancing the interests OF
the whole by advancing the in
terests of the parts? That you
have duty to your home town, is
plain, but it IS question as to
what is the best to advance its in
terests the most.
If you will admit that the best
interests of the whole are advanced
by promoting the best interests of
the parts, your duty would simply
be to make yourself as strong I'M
diyidually as possible. For the
best interests of the town as a
whole would be advanced the most
by promoting the best interests of
the individual citizen.
If you do anything to weaken
yourself individually, the town will
be weaker because of the weakness
of its citizens. Is voluntarily de.
priving yourself of interest on idle
or uninvested money calculated to
make you strong financially? Have
you been depriving yourself of in
terest on idle money because you
thought the best interest of the
town would be the most advanced
by such a policy?
If you have money in bank which
is not earning interest, you are los
ing money to the extent of money
it might have earned. For you
could deposit that money in this
bank where you could receive in
terest on it. The money you de.
post with a bank that pays no in
terest, will work to your own bene-
fit only indirectly. 1t will work to
the benefit of others directly-the
bank and its customers while you
will be weakened to the extent of
the interest it might have earned.
Keep this as rule: II will ad-
vance the interests of my home
town the most by advancing my
own interests the most. because a
town gets its strength from the in
dividual strength of its citizens.
This bank solicits no business ex-
cept on the merit Of its proposition.
We pay 4 per cent. compound inter
est on deposits and invite you to

Once past the vernal equinox,
it is pretty safe in saying spring
has come. That is, if one goes by
the calendar. Sometimes, how
ever, the weather in the latter
part of March is not all that could
be desired, and there have been
times when snow appears in such
quantities as to impel belief that
winter was about to begin again.
Nevertheless, and notwith-
standing, if one has doubts, the
first of April will dispel them.
No matter if the snow is still up
to the top of the porch rail and
the robin is conspicuous by his alb
sence, the opening of the month
of tears is marked by spring signs
which cannot be controversial
April 1 is moving day and IN
terest day. Why interest is al
ways due at the opening of spring
and why people should move
when there is mud if not snow,

TESTED AND PROVEN.
There is a Heap of Solace in Be
ing Able To Depend Upon a
Well Earned Reputation.

For months Sistersville readers
have seen the constant expression
of praise for Doan's Kidney Pills
and read about the good work
they have done in this locality.
Not another remedy ever produc-
ed such convincing proof of mer-
it:
Mrs. Frederick Haberling,
wife of Philip Haverling, electri-
cal engineer, living at COZ Woos-
ter street, Marietta, O., says:
"AIr. Hamerling is as ardent an
advocate for Doan's Kidney Pills
as he was some three and half
years ago when he gave a testi-
monial for publication touching
the merits of this remedy. 1t was
some six years prior to that time
while in Mt. Clemens, Mich, that
he first learned of Doan's Kidney
Pills. He has been subject to at
tacks of kidney trouble and ever
since he found such positive re-
lief from the use of this remedy
he has resorted to it's use and it
has never failed to dispel all
symptoms of the attack. I have
also used them for pain in my
back and kidney trouble, which
at times made it difficult for me
to do my work. Three boxes alb
solutely cured me, and not a trace
of kidney trouble remained for
five years after. At that time l
noticed a recurrence due, I think
to overwork. I again appealed
to Doan's Kidney Pills and the
results were so satisfactory that
my faith in them was greatly
strengthened. I have no hesitan-
cy in giving this medicine my en-
dorsement, for it acts up to the
representations made for it,
