1t is notable TACT that men of
big analrs always select trust COM
pany when they are IN need of the
services OF an executor or trustee.
The personal executor is thing OF
the past with these men. The mod
ern trust companys work is organ
Ized and done sysIemaucally. Ill one
OF Its ofhclaIs dies, the Others con-
unue his work without an nour'S in
terruptlon. There can be no loosely
Kept accounts. They do not depend
upon memory. L md the Mechanics
Trust Company here oners excep-
in my story yesterday this bank pald
three per cent. on savings compound
ed quarterly. l should have SAID every
tour months.
1 was IN a restaurant yesterday
when two young ladIes came in ana
took seat near me. They were dis
cusslng wnat l had said about the
School of Commerce. one of them
remarked: sherlock Holmes, Jr., had
better look out or we Will get him."
They had no idea l was III earshot
of their remarks. L cant say that L
will be captured in this school, but |
will say that this school is one OF the
busiest places / have visited since
coming here. This school Is no place
tor the idler but the boy or girl who
wants a caurse of study in book
keeping and correlative subjects, PEN
manshlp, shorthand, stereotype, type
writing and once training will not
find better equipped scnool in the
entire country tor an education along
these lines.
l was in Forney's drug store, 81
North Second street, yesterday aft
ernoon and gentleman walked up
and looked me over suspiciously for
u minute. Oh, no, do not mind tell-'
ing you about 1t, for I have my eyes
on you MIR. Insurance Man, and you
will not see me again. Not If l see
YOU first. | see this drug store is
not satisfied with simply giving their
patrons splendid service and the best
IN every line of drugs and drug
sundries but they have writing desk
and telephone tor the free use of the
pubic. l call this progressiveness
Their special truss 1ittingroom shows
that Forney's Drug store is run along
modern lines.
Did you ever figure the place that
light holds in the great scheme of
civilization. In the bright sunny days
of summer, the peach takes on its
blush and ripens into luscious fruit;
the birds sing ana all the world is
happy. And why not man emulate
nature? Brighten your homes and
your friends will more gladly call
upon you. Cheerfulness Will take
the place of depression and health
will follow in the wake of disease.
Fill your homes with it, your business
houses with it, and in a thousand
ways it will pay you. Electricity!
burg Light and Power Company nave
many electrical devices too, that Will
make the housewives work a pleasure
instead of drudgery.
A letter received from Lewisburg
signed: "a Reader and Admirer."
Wants to know If 1 can be captured
by mail. No, I can only be captured
saying the phrase, or while l am en-
1oying the show at the Majestic.
Sorry / won't have time to run up to
Lewisburg and give the many read
ers of the Telegraph a run for the $25.
l am not a bouquet tosser by habit,
but give praise where praise is due,
says /. That's just why L am going
to say the City Star Laundry deserves
the splendid patronage they enjoy.
They not only have modern equip
ment but their system for taking care
of every bundle of laundry strikes me
as perfect. Every package has
number and letter, where the letter
is duplicated sometimes the number
IS never duplicated. The asserting
department is where the bundles are
made up and a bundle cannot be
wrapped until the original list checks
with the bundle.
Two ladies standing at the corner
of Market and Fourth streets yester-
day afternoon had a good chance to
land the $25. One of them said: II
am going to do some shopping for
Robert now" Robert is certainly a
lucky boy.
L believe 1 told you the other day
that if you were in the market for
diamonds you would find what you
wanted at the p. G.. Diener jewelry
store, provided you wanted something
in a tirst-class store. Well, now l am
going to tell you to go to the same
place If you want something good In
a watch. ! don't know of anything
q man would appreciate more for a
Christmas present than a Gruen Vert
thin Watch. 1 simply mention the
watch as it is dandy but If there is
something else in jewelry you want
then take this tip and beat it to
Diener's-thirty clerks to take care
