SAVE YOUR HAIR!
 !. I25 CENT BOTTLE STOPS DANDRUfF
Every bit of dandruff disappears and hair stops
 coming out.
Try this! Your hair appears glossy, abundant. wayy
 and beautiful.

Thin, brittle, colorless and scraggy hair is mute evidence of a neglected scalp: of dandruff-that awful scurf.
 There is nothing so destructive to the hair as dandruff. It robs the hair of it's lustre, it's strength and it's very life; eventually producing a feverish- ness and itching of the scalp, which if not remedied causes the hair roots to shrink. loosen and die-then the hair falls out fast A little Dandcrne tCnight-now-any time-will surely save your hair.
 Get a 25-cent bottle of knowlton' S Danderine from any drug store or toilet counter, and after the first ap- plication your hair will take on that life, lustre and luxuriance which is so beautiful. It will become wavy and fluffy and have the appearance of abundance, an incompatible gloss and softness; but what will please you most will be after just few weeks use. when you will actually see lot of fine, downy hair-new hair-growing all over the scalp.
 Danderine is to the hair what fresh showers of rain and sunshine are to vegetation. It goes right to tho roots, | 'nvigorates and strengthens them. It's collaborating and life-producing prop critics cause the hair to grow long, strong and beautiful.

TALKS ON BANKING.
 fot AND YOUR BANK ACCOUNT.

When the banker accepts your ac- count, and gives you a pass book and a check book, he has the right to ex- pect certain things from you, as you nave the right legally and morally 10 eXnect certain things from him.
 In the first place, he has the right to expect profit from your account. Banking is an expensive business. It costs certain amount to handle every check that passes through the bank, and every account should con- tribute portion to the expenses of Ihe bank, however small. When your 1 banker asks you to keep certain balance. he is merely asking his right 10 profit from your account. It is easily to be seen that if you keep a small balance, say ten dollars, and the banker furnishes you with sta tionery. does the necessary bookkeep- ing on the account (for your benefit as we'll as hls), the earning power of that ten dollars. even if it were all invested at 6 per cent. would be in- sufficient to compensate him for the cost attending that account. There inre be generous and give him a .I clance to make profit: for as every sale of merchandise should show a
 profit, so every bank account should at least pay its way Give him as large balance as you can possibly

 ''lt may be needed later in regard to lb.e insurance or tac settling of es- tates or for proof in matter of in- heritances.
