1. AUGUST 22, 1911. THE WILKES BARRE RECORD TUESDAY, AUGUST 22, 1911. 15 How Do You Spend Your Money? Are you doing it in a way to receive substantial benefit? Are you laying aside something for a "rainy day," or are you spending your income as fast as, or faster than, you get it? If you are doing the latter you are making a great mistake. Sometime, Mr.

Spendthrift, when you find that your creditors are "playing horse" with you, and showing a disposition to crowd you, you will learn that debt is the beginning of slavery. In the days of human slavery a shrewd philosopher once said: "A CREDITOR MIRE worse tor than a SLAVE-MASTER; for the latter owns only your person. A creditor owns your dignity, and can belabor that." Money in Bank is More Than Money! Money in bank is character. The man with a bank account is seldom out of work. His thrift is recognized.

It makes him a good workman. Mr. Small Wage earner, if you have not yet begun to lay up money in a bank you will never have a better opportunity in which to begin to do it than JUST NOW. To get quickly started, begin the easiest way. Come to The Second National Bank of Wilkes-Barre, whose President is ABRAM NESBITT and whose Cashier is EUGENE W.

MULLIGAN, and which is located at the north -east corner of Franklin and Market Streets. Do not wait until you have got a large sum of money, for, by delaying matters, you may never get it. You can start your savings account with one dollar, and the "Second will pay you three per cent. interest, compounded semi-annually, on your savings. This Bank is the Bank of Ideal Efficiency! It Is The Bank That Treats You Right! ASHLEY The headquarters of the Record are at Colborn's Drug Store, where news items may be left.
