Lay up for a rainy day. Money in one's
pocket is often spent on the spur of the
moment, while you think twice before
drawing on your bank account. The one
sure .way to save money is by depositing it in
a responsible bank. That is the only way to
prevent it from burning holes in your pocket.

top to thinh we know that it is so
h it too freipn ntly wo lose slight of the
man that is faithfully and quietly do
ii" his woik at homo without any
inding of t'ur pets or even in some
i.i-cs, a just appieciation of his work.
It is even the case sometimes nnt-

They might have asked nay for this
