DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CUnED

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed condi.
ton of the mucous lining of the Eusta.
chan Tube. When this tube is infamed
you have rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed
Deafness is the result, and unless the
inflammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever: nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an infiamed condi-
ton of the mucous surfaces.

The SAFETY OF SAVINGS
BANKS

There are certain fundamental prin-
.ciples governing the investment OF
money which are well understood by
every safe Banker.
Some Banks are SO exceedingly
careful in regard to their investments
that they come to be known as ultra
conservative. Others, seeking to earn
larger dividends for their stockholders,
reach out for extra high rates at the
possible sacrifice of absolute safety OF
principal.
The Hyde Park Savings Bank has
very properly come to be classed
among the ultra-conservatives, because
its management has never yielded to
the temptation offered by high rates
of interest, lest, in so doing, the ele-
ment Of absolute safety be sacrificed.
No Bank has any right to claim to
be especially conservative unless the
actual facts and figures are forthcom-
ing to substantiate that claim.
The Hyde Park Savings Bank offers
depositors and the public the follow
ing facts. They are taken from its
books which are at all times open to
anyone wishing to verify them;
First. In its nearly twenty five
years of existence it has never owned
a note upon which it received more
than six per cent interest.
Second. Its average rate OF inter
est on all its assets is less than s. /,
per cent.
Third. Its investments on the first
day of July last in United States,
State, County, City, Town and School
District bonds and notes and on notes
with these as collateral, none OF them
drawing more than five per cent inter
est, was more than $4,000 probably
a much larger sum than is carried by
any other bank, with equal assets, in
Vermont. This means that every de-
positor is morally certain to get his
money whenever he wants it, as upon
this class of collaterals the bank can
secure money with which to meet any
reasonable demands upon it.
Fourth. On the first day of July
last, the Hyde Park Savings Bank had
in cash and on deposit with banks,
banking associations and trust COM
panies, S279,294.6o. Very much the
larger part of this was drawing 5
per cent. and less, while none of it
was drawing more than AZ per cent.
This means great deal both to those
depositors who have their money in
the Hyde Park Bank, and to the peo-
pie of Vermont as WELL The depos-
itors know that a bank which carries
such a liberal line of cash can with
Middlebury register. (Middlebury, Vt.) 1886-1937, 1913-10-24

practical certainty, meet any demands
which they make upon it. To Yer
mont it means that every legitimate
interest in the State can come to this
bank at any time, and for large sums,
and be promptly supplied.
Only a few weeks ago the Hyde
Park Savings Bank was carrying the
entire outstanding short time notes of
the State of Vermont, aggregating
100000. 1t is true that this loan
paid the bank only 5 per cent, while
very large quantities of presumably
good out-Of-State paper was at the
same time being offered to the mana
gers of the bank at per cent or more.
This fact shows Conclusively that the
Hyde Park Bank seeks the safest and
best gilt-edged paper it can find even
though it has to accept low rate of
interest thereon.
The Hyde Park Bank is today car
rying for the other banks of Vermont,
paper aggregating more than S294,-
7S5, not a dollar of which pays the
bank more than S per cent interest.
Possibly other banks may criticise this
line of investment and call the mana
gers of that Bank fools because they
do not seek loans paying higher rate
of interest. But when you ask these
banks why it is that the depositing
public prefers the Hyde Park Bank,
and why it is that in the last fiscal
year the average deposits in that bank
exceeded the Withdrawals by nearly
$1,000 for each business day of the
year, they will, if honest, confess that
the partially for the Hyde Park Bank
is because it seeks absolutely safe, low
rate, rather than high-rate, paper and
because it so utilizes its funds as to
take care of every Vermont interest
from the State of Vermont, borrowing
S2oo, 900, down to the humblest Dor
rover who may want only $500.
The people of Vermont who de-
post in Savings Banks are not seek
ing, as a place of deposit, the bank
which earns the largest dividends for
its stockholders, but rather the bank
that keeps abnormally strong, and at
the same time best cares for, every Yer
mont interest, industry and enterprise.
If strong bank pays the very high
est rate of interest to the deposition
and the Hyde Park Bank does, paying
4 per cent, compounded semi-annu-
ally, paying all taxes-it follows as
naturally as night follows the day, that
the preference is given to the bank
which is conducted along the safest
and most conservative banking lines.
Should anyone care to pursue this
line of thought further they are cor
daily invited to address the President,
Carroll S. Page, or the Treasurer,
M. Culver, Hyde Park, Vermont.

N1rA-s NEW york FASHIONS
Exaggerated Styles Go By-swallou.
Tail Effect Passes-One Button
Getaway Attractive.

: Apparently the season of exaggera-
ton has passed in the matter of the
cut of coat. The tailor made suit
shows a moderately tight skirt with
a Jacket reaching only to the hips.
The long swallow tailed effect that
gave women the appearance of gigan-
tic beetles is seen only on the cheap
models
There is a modified form that shows
a one button cutaway, with the back
reaching several inches deeper than
the front. This style is very becom-
ing, and especially smart in striped
effects.
1T is a strange thing that when a
woman starts out to buy a black suit,
she has to cay so much more for a
really modish cut than. in eolored ma
terials.
SalespeopIe claim that this is due
to the fact that one must expect to
pay more for black in order to get
the quality. OF course any one who
has worn mourning or who affects
black in preference to colors, knows
that there is nothing that demands
greater expenditure than to keep
black in presentab1e form. Shabby
black is the most deplorable looking
thing.
While there is nothing more refin-
ed or attractive than the black and
white combinations worn by so many
smart women, would advise thought
before black was decided upon unless
you can get the best.
This. however, is a divergence from
the matter of modes of the moment.
Most of the skirts in the cloth gowns
are plain, varying slightly in width
only from those worn through the
winter. There are some light weight
cloths which are draped, and every
silk skirt has shirred effects or the
scarf drapery tucked in near the hem.
This is very popular, because it can
be so easily arranged by a home dress
maker. Besides it offers an opportun-
ity to refurnish an old skirt. For even
if the scarf is not of the same ma
teria1, it gives a smart touch in it's
