A Fine Concert.

The Ithaca Conservatory Concert
Company which is to appear in EN-
porium on Dec. 5, is highly recon-
mended by the public press. The
Company is composed of four NOM
bers: Miss Bessie Stangnatt, reader;
Miss Isabel Chandler, Violinist; Miss
Blanche Lumley Pianist and Mr.. AL
fred P. Aowes, Baritone. This Com
pany has met with great success every
where and the concert to be given in
Opera House will afford to the music
lovers an evening of keen enjoyment.
The following notice appeared in the
Altoona Evening Gazette, Altoona,
Pa:
"The Ithaca Conservatory Company
appeared before large and apprecia-
tive audience Saturday night, in the
Fifth Avenue Methodist Church. The
Company, though splendidly recon-
nended, exceeded the expectations of
the people. The almost continuous APP
plause of the audieuce attested their
enthusiasm. The consensus of opinion
is ''come again." For benefit of Pres
byterian Church.

the city banker will be all right. But
if the farmers of the whole country
should allow themselves to become
frightened and withhold their money
from deposit and from circulation they
can make trouble. The responsibility
of the outcome, not of the origin, of
the situation seems to me to be clearly
in their hands. And I believe that
they are big, broad and farsighted
enough to recognize this ard act ac-
cordingly.-Saturday Evening Post

A tickling coupb. from anv canse i

A tickling cough, from any cause, is
quickly stopped by DR.. Shoop's Cough
Cure. And it is 80 thoroughly harm

mothers everywhere to give it without
hesitation even to very young babies.
The wholesome green leaves and tend
er stems of lung g-healing mountain
Gus shrub, furnish the curative proper
ties to DIR. Shoop's Cough Cure. 1t
calms the cough, and heals the sore and
sensitive bronchial membranes. No
opium, no chloroform, nothing harsh
used to iniure or suppress. Simply a
resimous plant extract, that helps to
heal aching lungs. The Spaniards call
this schrub which the Doctor uses,

The Foolishness of Locking Up
Money!.

Money.
That very great many persons are
drawing their money from the banks
and locking it up in safety deposit
vaults or carrying it home and hiding
it in various places is fact that every
bank and trust company has noted
These who do this foolish thing have
an idea that they are protecting
themselves. They are not. They are
simply aiming blow at the prosper
ity of the country, which is also their
own prosperity.
And what are they doing it for2
Can any one of them tell?
Are they afraid that the railroads are
going to be fined SO heavily that divi.
dends will be interferred with or pass
ed entirely? Do they believe, because
some financial sharks have been rob-
bing street car lines, that the whole
country is under tribute to financial
conspirators? Do they fear that be-
cause some spectators got hold of a
bank or two rottenness prevades the
entire banking system, and that failures
throughout the land may be looked for?
Of course, this is all very absurd, but
the fool will run from another foot's
joking cry of fire in a theatre just as
fast as he will from the real thing.
Brighten him little, even if there is
no cause for alarm, and away he goes
Now, there is no trouble with the
banks. There is no trouble with bust
ness except the lack of money. That
is all.
And for that lack of money the fool
ish man who locks his money up and
prevents it from circulating is at fault
The hoarder congratulates himself
upon his abstuteness. He never stops
to think that he and those who think
with him are inviting disaster upon
their own heads. Great enterprises
| cannot be carried on without capital.
Business cannot be brisk if money can
not be had. Mills and factories must
discharge their men unless they can
procure money or credit With mills
closing and throwing employees. out of
work, with decreased business, neces-
stating the discharge of clerks from
the stores, what would become of the
man who refuses to permit his money
to remain iu the banks? lie would be
discharged with the rest, and he would
be responsible for the shut down.
We have not reached the point of
closing mills as yet except in very
limited degree. We shall not reach it
at all if this absurd and childish move
ment to withdraw deposits is stopped.
All that is needed is that confidence
which will bring the money into the
banks and allow business to get back
! into its usual channels.
