coming biliousness and constipation
and thereby preventing the return OF
the headache next day. Doctors es-
pecially recommend Aspironal for the
reason that it is not dangerous to the
heart and does not upset the stomach.
The next time you have headache

the clerk half dollar for a bottle of
Aspironal and tell him to serve you
two teaspoonsful in a little water. With
your watch in your hand count off two
minutes and call for your money back,

druggist invites and expects you to
try Aspironal so don't be bashful.

POWERS Of BANKS
IS RULED upon

The extent to which national
bank may obligate itself in the effort
to protect loans already made is a
point decided in the opinion handed
down yesteray by the United States
circuit court Of appeals, in the case of
the Second Nationafbank of Parkers-
burg. West Va, and Farmers and
Mechanics National bank, of Parkers-

adjudication, had contracts with the
United States to build certain locks
and dams in the Ohio, the Big Sandy
and Congaree rivers. The u. S.
Fidelity and Guaranty company was
surety on its bond for 100000. and
had taken as it's indemnity an agree
ment for the assignment of the gov
eminent contracts, and the right to
use the company's plant in the event
the concern should become unable to
complete its undertakings
The banks were heavy creditors.
and upon the failure of the Contract
company, they undertook to france
the trustees in bankruptcy with
view or completing the government
work, and entered into obligations in
Identifying the Guaranty company
against further liability. The venture
proved unsuccessful. and upon the
institution of proceedings by tina
guaranty company to enforce its in
demnity; the banks pleaded that the
obligation was invalid and not such as
national banks were authorized to
execute.
The court held otherwise, however
and that the indemnity was given as
part OF the business of the banks TO
collect debts, and protect its funds.
and judgment was rendered accord
