 MT. Nicholson said the map would be comprehensive and would greatly facili- tate the work of Mr. Hall. "It general ly takes more time on these proposl- tions than one would think" said MT Nicholson. "We have had numerous conferences recently and each time we have been able to improve the map So that it would be better.

Talks On Banking
Trust Companies

The trust company has we'll been
termed the department store Of bank
ing" in that it can be done for a man
whatever he needs done in financial
way, dead or alive. II can accept de-
posits as a national bank or a statn
bank may do IL can make loans
similar to other banks. II receives
savings accounts. II may buy a bong
or a share OF stock for a client; but
II cannot issue bank notes. II has
broader powers than either national
or state banks, for by law il is en-
dowed with trust powers" denied to

years ago. enabling national banks

and are examined and report after
the manner of state banks.
The chief distinguishing feature
OF the trust company is the
trust powers above mentioned. It
may be the executor OF your will. II
may be the guardian Of your chill
dren. You may have your estate in its
care. and Il will make the invest
ments, collect the rents, pay the bills
and turn the proceeds over to whom
sOever you designate. Il may certify
that in a bond issue, say of one hun
dred million dollars. only one hun
dred million dollars in bonds have
been. issued. thus preventing an over
issue Of securities. Il may transfer
stock for corporations. II may act
as the trustee in a mortgage bond
issue, and hold the security that pro-
tects the bond issue. II has broad.
varied and very useful and necessary
powers, and has become an indispen-
sable part Of our present financial
scheme. We could not do business
without IT,
The chief benefit Of the trust com
pany to the individual lies in its pow

But the trust company never dies

invest the money Of your estate in
certain prescribed securities. whose
value is the highest known in in
vestments circles. II has a force OF
trained men who know how 10 make
investments, keep books and render
proper account to the legal authori-
I ties and beneficiaries.
The officials are experienced men

DON'T BE BALD
Here's a Good Way TO Stop Loss OF
Hair and Start New Hair Growth.

Hair can never be made to grow
again after the hair roots themselves
are dead. But few OF us, fortunately
grow bald in a day. and we have am
ple warning that our hair is steadily
growing thinner.
Partisan Sage is probably as ef-
fective a hair grower as could possibly
be found. but to prevent further loss
of hair, and TO actually start a new
hair growth on the bald and thin
spots, Il must be rubbed right into the
scalp with finger tips, OF medium
stiff brush. so that the hair roots can
really absorb II. Try to get as much
on the scalp. and as little on the hair.
as possible. Your hair doesn't need II
but your scalp does, and few weeks
scalp massage with Partisan Sage
Gust a few minutes daily will usually
check any further loss OF hair and
make the hair grow as thickly and
iuxuriantly as ever.
Unlike many hair tonics, Partisan
Sage contains no sulphur or poison
Gus wood alcohol. and will not make
the hair greasy or stain the hair or
scalp. II can be obtained at druggists
and toilet counters everywhere. and
Is not at all expensive.

there have been discovered tessellated
pavements. Roman tombs, lamps

When little over century ago
deep sections were made for the

above this stratum was a thick layer

The Letter &C."

Some one has advanced the opinion
that the letter ''e" is the most unfor-
tunate character in the English alpha
bet, because it is always out of cash,
forever in debt, never out of danger,
and in hell all the time.
But we call his attention to the fact
that ''e'' is never in war, and always
in peace. 1t is the beginning of exist
ence, the commencement of ease and
the end of trouble. Without it there
would be no meat, no life and no heav-
en-. 1t is the center of honesty, makes
love perfect, and without IL there would
be no editors, devils or news.
