Your Own Judgment
Nine imes ou of 10 it pays o back your own judgment,es-
pecially in financial affairs.It's your money you spend and
if you fail, you will have learned a lesson, and you will
profit by the experience.

Our bank does not invest your funds for you. We
merely safeguard your money until you are ready to in-
vest it yourself. Then if you want our advice, we will
give it cheerfully and to the best of our ability, but our
first care is to safeguard our depositors’ funds and to offer
all other accommodations of modern banking.
Can we be of service to you?

PIGS AND HOGS
The pig is a very important American article of diet
If it were not for the pig we would not get bacon ar.d sau-
sage for breakfast. Pigs are born in litters. There are
many pigs in a litter. Most iolks who live in the city pre-
fer to buy their pigs by the pound at the meat market to
raising them on their own premises, and usually their neigh-
bors prefer that they do this. A pig is a great “rooter, 'but
not in a base ball sense. One industrious pig, with no oth-
er tool than his nose, will plow up a ten-acre field to find
one acorn. Some naturalists maintain that all pigs have
four legs, but this is a mistake. There is a certain kind of
a pig who has only two legs. The two-legged pig rides on
summer street cars. He always sits on the end seat and
makes you climb over his legs. We are glad he has not
four legs to climb over. Pigs are different from hogs in that
they do not have bristles. The older the hog, the bigger
and better the bristles.

“I had stomach tiouble so bad I j
could eat nothing but toast, fruit |
and hot water. Everything else
soured and formed gas. Dieting did
no good. I was miserable until I
tried buckthorn bark, glycerine, etc.
as mixed in Adler-i-ka. ONE
SPOONFUL benefited me IN-
STANTLY.” Because Adler-i-ka
empties BOTH large and small in-
testine it relieves ANY CASE con-
stipation, sour stomach or gas and
preven ts appendicitis. It has
