THE ALMIGHTY
 DOLLAR WITH A HOLE IN IT

We all like to think that our own dollar is sound and worth 100 cents. If some one tries to pass us a dollar with 9 hole in it, or one plugged with lead, we make an emphatic protest
 And yet some of us go along day by day. letting each of our dollars buy us an average of about roc apiece.
 All of which comes from the unthrifty American habit of careless spending, or, in other words, buying things in a hurry without thought and considera- tion.
 In a new and bountiful coun- try like ours it is a natural re- suit of too much prosperity.
 There Is, however, growing class of people who realize that it pays well to think as th@y buy. To all such we reccommend the advertising pages of THE BULLETIN which offers reliable information and suggestion to intending purchasers.
