WORK FOR TEN DOLLARS
A WEEK"

said a man over fifty years of age last
week to a business man who needed an
office assistant. Yet this same man
who sought a ten-dollar-a-week position
formerly drew a very large salary, He
says he is without money in his old age
because he did not learn to save in his
youth. He always thought that he
would save a large amount each year
when he had a big income, but found
that his expense kept pace with his
salary. Start saving now if it is not
more than a dollar a week. The habit
of saving will grow and lead you to fu-
ture independence and assured prosper
lty. Each dollar you save and deposit
here will earn a per cent. interest com
