Lazy Dollars
Dollars merely safe are not performing
their natural function. They are not
working. They are not doing the owner
or the world any good.
Moreover, most hiding places thought to
be safe are decidedly unsafe. Not only
thieves, but fire or other unforeseen
happening may rob you of your wealth.
Saving Is Using
Dollars saved are safer! And they are
constantly working to earn more for you.
They are constantly working for the
good of the whole community.
Consider this. We pay you for sav
ing. And while you are saving,
your money 13 never out of reach.
It 13 always ready tor you ana
easy to get when you need it

"We must fight for peace," was
tho final word cf Marshal Ferdinand

we must fight for health, especially
now when the change of season
comes. Such changes always mean
trouble for a great many people.
They feal weak, their appetite is

ily, constipation usually appears, one

fortified condition by taking Triner's
Bitter Wine in time. If the stomach

destructive effects of bacilli. Triner's
Bitter Wine is very pleasant to take,
and its 32 years of popular renown
are the bast guarantee that you can
rely upon it. Your druggist or
dealer in medicines surely knows
many customers who would tell you
that they cannot be without it. For
