Why is it that the most important
step in life. marriage, is often decided
at haphazard? Perhaps it is because
every one considers marriage a lottery.
At any rate, ah impatient word a
flower given in the nick of time, a
misunderstood sentence. a smile. will
often determine whether Molly is to
marry Tom, with a happy life before
her, or John with misery and final di-
vorce.
Margaret Lee. though still young and
comparatively inexperienced. was born
to natural insight into such matters.
Where most young ladies would give
their hearts in return for a compli-
ment. she looked for something more
enduring. She was wiser even than
this. She knew that she could not
forecast what her fate would be with
any man. Tom might be one of ma
lures noblemen. but he might also be
a poor provider. John might be mar
row minded and selfish. but might
bestOw upon her wealth and honors
Margaret realized that she must take
her chances
Miss Lees choice gradually narrow
ed down to one of two men. Her
Tom and John were Pope Armstrong
and LIE Baron Brown. Armstrong rep
resented what has been said of Tom;
he was especially interested in his
own career. Brown was. in some
respects. typifed by John. He was
a noble fellow, but was regarded by
his friends as full of fine impracticabIe
impulses and a born gambler; not a
gambler in the narrow, but the broad
sense. Both wanted Margaret. and
Margaret wanted one or the other of
them. Her Judgment said Armstrong.
her inclination favored Brown
One evening Armstrong went to see
her and used very excellent arguments
why she should marry him. He was
getting a good salary, with prospects
of better. He was putting aside 80
per cent of his income and already had
a nest egg laid up that was paying
him good interest. 81 am going for

IN BUSINESS 20 YEARS.
CONTINUED from page ID

vening years the annual statements
disclose the eloquent fact that the
savings deposits have shown a
gain every year but one, until in
the last statement issued they
amount to $2,75O,0OO belonging to
more than 5000 depositors. In
1893, having fairly outgrown it's
4imited quarters and being quite
prepared for a home of it's own,
the bank purchased the lot on the
corner of Eastern avenue and Rail-
road street and the following year
erected thereon the best business
block in town. This substantial
structure planted on the busiest
corner in five counties remains the
banking home of this institution.
From it's modest beginning, it has
grown to an Importance, impressive
for a country bank AS a safeguard
for it's large savings deposits, it
possesses capital stock of 100000
which, together with the stockhold-
ers' liability and surplus accounts
gives an additional security of
100000. Such a record of growth
in the comparatively short period
of % years, suggests good manage
ment, conservatism and the con-
usual degree.
Good management however is
not the whole story. A successful
bank must afford the facilities the
public needs. Fortunately the
combination of the savings bank and
trust company, authorized by YER
mont law is almost ideally adapted
to the banking requirements of YER
monters. AS is we'll known, the
Citizens is first and foremost a
savings institution, accepting de-
posts from $1O0 upward and pay
ing four per cent. interest annually,
compromising semi-annually, the
highest rate allowed by law, all such
deposits to any amount being tax
exempt for the depositor. Combin-
ed with this savings business, the
Citizens offers all the facilities of an
ordinary commercial bank where
one may open check account and
have his business paper discounted.
Also as a trust company authorized
to act as an executor, administrator.
trustee or guardian, the Citizens has
a wide field of usefulness destined
to attract a constantly increasing
degree of popularity. A security Of
one half million dollars assures re-
sponsibility. Inc Probate court ac-
cepts its bonds without sureties. It's
officers are trained in handling in
vestments safelv and perhaps most
important of all, the funds so en-
trusted to it are all exempt from To-
cal taxation.
Thus in it's three fold aspect of
savings institution, commercial bank
and trust company, the Citizens
serves all sorts and conditions Of
men. In entering upon it's ces
men. In entering upon its second
quarter century of business, the
bank and it's officials will endeavor
to serve the banking needs of the
public with the same combined con-
servatism and progressiveness which
have made possible its somewhat re-
markable career,
