The Average Man Is not a Man of Wealth. He has an Income, while he re tains strength of mind and body, upon which he and his family are able to live with comfort, It is to this average man that the advantages of a bank account should appeal with the greatest force. The time to save money is early in life the earlier the better. A bank account helps a man to save and gives him a safe place for his money. Men can save some thing out of their earnings if they resolve to do so. Save a little to-day while you can.
