SUFFRAGE WORKER
Rev. Phebe A. Hanaford. !Contempor-
ary of Anthony Dies.

The Rev. Phcbe A. Hanaford, 8"
years old suffrage worker who died
FRIDAY ut Rochester, n. Y. was 4
pioneer in movement for equal rights
and a contemporary OF Susan b. An
.thony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton and
other early leaders.
She was the first woman ever or
dained in New England, where she be-
came minister Of the Uriversalist
church in 1858. Two years later she
appeared before a joint session of the
lower session of the Connecticut legis-
laturc and acted as chaplain of both
upper and lower houses.
For twenty years before hccominG Il
Rev. Hanaford taught school,
lecturcd on literary and reform topics
and for time edited the Ladies' Re-
positor and the Myrtle.
She was an official and member Of
many literary and temperance So
cicties and the author OF several hooks
of prose and poetry. Among these
were Biographies of Lincoln, Dickens
and George Peabody.

ABSOLUTELY SAFE
Nothing More Secure, Than Money Of
Bank Deposition.

When a man loses his nerve he is
down and OUT and as nations are
made up of men they; too, are down
and out when they lose their nerve.
Loss Of nerve is followed by the lack
of confidence, and the lack of conf
dence is responsible for panics which.
are followed by industrial .depres--
sion and business stagnation. Last fall,
when commodity prices took a slump
| tic. nation lost its nerve. The people.
were looking for better times and
when the reaction set in 1t took them
SO completely by surprise they found
cred about in a bewildered' and dunn
founded sort of manner. With the loss
Of nerve there followed lack of conf
dGnce and before the business world
realized it, we were on the verge of a
panic. In another column is printed a
clipping from 'Views and Interviews
of the Yorkville Enquirer which tells
the story in simple language: The old
darky had lost his nerve and his con-
fidence in his sayings which he kept at
home in his bank ITavered. He drew
out and what he expected didn't hap:
Den, his confidence in his bank was re-.
stored The old darkey's case is typi-
cal of thousands of cases throughout
the United States. Millions of dollars
were drawn out of the banks then and
every dollar that came out and went
into hiding added fuel to the flame.
Thousands of dollars were drawn out
of Dillon county banks, and now that
confidence has been restored they are
finding their way back. Lack OF con-
1dence in banks is due to the lack Of
knowledge of the banking laws. Even:
when times are panicky it is not only
good judgment but the part.of wisdom
to keep your money in the banks. De-
positors are preferred creditors. II
bank fails the depositors are paid first.
If there is not sufficient money on.
hand to pay the depositors the capital
stock is exhausted. IF the capital
stock is not sufficient the resources OF;
the bank are turned into cash and the
proceeds paid over to depositors. In
addition to these resources which can
be drawn on to pay depositors the d1-
rectors are liable for double the
amount of stock they own and as a.
rule the directors own a majority OF
the stock. Under present banking laws
there Is not one chance out Of a, thou-
sand for the depositors lose in the.
event Of bank failure.-Dillon Her
