was in almost continual agony
and each day seemed like year.
IL was torture for me to raise
my hands to my head and my

stoop over and straighten up.
My nerves were all shot to-
pieces, too. My sleep was all
broken up and simply felt mis-

and this medicine has made a
brand new man of me. II put me-
back on my feet In such a short

THRIFT WEEK

Benjamin Franklin was born in Boston PIG years ago but many
OF the sayings of "PoOr Richard" a pseudonym under which he wrote
still live and are as true and pertinent today as they were in his life
time when he was a leading exponent of saving and thrift. His adj
wee Is as sound now as it was then. Hence it comes that BENJAMIN
Frankln's birthday has been selected as the day on which the an
nal National Thrift Week shall start, January II. which this wear
falls upon Tuesday next.
Originally tostered by the Y. M. c. \, the idea was taken up
and is supported by the cooperation of AZ of The more prominent ma
tlonal, civic, commercial, industrial, educational and religious orgAni-
zanons' including the American Bankers Association. Though call
ed a week it is in reality a ten day period.
Thrift week is the period when the forces for thrift throughout
the country are modified for attack upon the enemy, extravaeance
and carelessness. 1t has a ten pOlt financial creed: Work and
Earn, Make a Budget, Record Expenditures, Have a Bank Account.
Carry Life Insurance, Make a Will, Pay Your Bills Promptly, Invest
in Safe Securities and Share with Others. Thrift Week provides a
day on which each one of these requisites may be started though
there is no objection to doing them all in one day. A week or ten
days, however, gives ample time for the putting into operation of
the teachings in the creed which leads the way through thrift into
prosperity Perhaps the teachings are not new but the practice of
them would be new to many and they go far toward establishing the
