Shrewd Trick Of Banker

James Edoff of San Francisco and
he Auditorium Hotel tells how the
game of high finance was worked out
Nevada in the SOS. He says:
Il had quasi uncle who was a
banker in town we will call Rose
bud in Nevada, was employed in
his bank. where | saw some things, |
can tell you. The distance from Rose
bud to HoWling Mill was 140 miles
and there were more holdups on that
section of road in those days than
anywhere in the United States.
"A man We will call r. D. Roberts,
a millionaire, came into the bank one
morning and told my uncle he wanted
to buy exchange for $4,000 on the
bank of Howling Hill.
9" All right, said my uncle; it will
cost you $500
Roberts declared it was cheap at
the price.
Now, my uncle had no account
with the bank at Howling Hill and no
funds there. He had to draw on
San Francisco bank and request them
to arrange the exchange for him. All
this he told to Roberts.
When Roberts was gone he said to
me: Jim, go out and get a candle

Divert his thought, readjust his in.

cannot be obstinate if he would.
Obstinacy thrives on attention, and
is dissipated by neglect. Obstinacy is
a species of conceit. and revels in the
power to disarrange plans. 1t is
never Inundated by conflict. Even
when conquered, it pgides itself ON
the effort required for the conquest.
If an obstinate child receives no spe-
cial attention because of 1t he be-
comes shamefaced. To attempt to
match obstinacy with obstinacy is a
public confession that you are as bad
as he, and all you can hope for is to
prove that you are worse by holding
out longer. Obstinacy is mental dis.

packed it full of sawdust, put $4,000
in the middle of the sawdust nailed
down the box and addressed il to the
cashier of the Howling Mill bank.
Il remember the stage wheeled
right up past the door of the bank
and on the front seat by the driver
sat Roberts. My uncle came out
with the box as the stage drew up.
Here, Roberts, catch this. he
called, and he tossed up the candle
box to Roberts. AS you go by the
bank in Howling Hill throw it down,
will you? It's some quartz of some
mines here they want to look at.
Don't forget it.
"'All right, won't said Roberts,
and he tossed the box into the boot

years at West Point, has the follow

A constantly increasing number of
physicians prescribe Peruna in their
practice. 1t has proven its merits so
thoroughly that even the doctors have
overcome their prejudice against So
called patent medicines and recon-
mend it to their patients.
Peruna occupies unique position
in medical science. 1t is the only in
ternal systemic catarrh remedy
known to the medical profession to-
day. Catarrh, as everyone will admit,
is the cause of one-half the diseases
which aff1ict mankind. Catarrh and
