The IdeaJ
in the business world when everyone with an income
has a hank account ami jiays his bills by check.
Ninety jwrcent of the business is done by check Why?
Because it is safe. Because it is more convenient than
haihllinK the money. Because the chances of error
are less.
You do not have to do an extensive business in order
to have a checking account. Small accounts are as
welcome as large ones, and will receive the same care
ful attention.

ATTEMPTS TO TAKE HIS LIFE
Further Particulars of the Sad Affair
Which Occurred at Manley.
In yesterday's Issue of the Evening
Journal a brief account of the at
tempted suicide of 1). (). Ilostetter,
which was sent us by the father of the
young man appeared, but the following
from the Weeping Water Herald gives
more light upon the attempt of the
young man to take bis own life:
"Last Sunday night I). O. Ilustctter,
a young man about twenty years old,
living near Murray, came over to Man
ley and attended church. He is a
nephew of Mrs. Jim Breckenrldge.and
went from the church to Brecken
ridge's house to spend the night. In
the night he got up and went out to
the barn. Mrs.Breckenridge awakened
and got up after a while, wondering
w hy the boy didn't return. She found
a note on the table written by Ilos
tetter, saying his body would be found
In the barn. She awakened her hus
band, and he, fearing the boy had
hanged himself, went over to his
neighbor, Mr. Rockwell, and not being
able to arouse him, traveled over to
Mr. Newman's, a mile and a half", and
told him of the circumstance. To
gether they returned, got Mr. Rock
well and went into the barn, where
they found Ilostetter lying on his face,
still and cold. By the side of the
body was a two-ounce bottle contain
ing carbolic acid, and half of the con
tents had been taken. Dr. Greene, of
Manley, was called, and worked with
the boy all day and night, and dually
succeeded in eliminating the poison,
and the would-be suicide may possibly
recover.
"The cause of the attempt is said
to be on account of trouble at home.
The boy Is also a relative of Mrs. Tom
Akeson. Dr. Green says lie Is terribly
burned Internally but he hopes to
save him."
Organize a Mutual Telephone Co.

there was a largely attended meeting
