Cfomtmae Gratitude
WE review the happenings of this
year we wish to thank our patrons
for thlir jpatronage. We are grateful for
the patronage and confidence of every cus
tomer that we have. We wish for each
and every citizen in this county the great
est possible things in store for them during
the coming year. Come in to see us when
you come to town; we are always glad to
welcome you, and if you are not a custo
mer of our bank, open an account with
us, and be satisfied with your banking
connections.
year, I gave thirty-eight presents this Christmas and received
only nine letters of thanks.” This seemed dreadful beyond
words. And what of the others PM hastened to ask. “Some
oi them thanked me when -we next met,” she said oarelessly,
and some of them never thanked me at all. You know," she
added after a pause, “one of the hardest things to do i. to give
thanks graciously. Some people can never do it. It is the dis
tinct mark of high breeding. I don’t suppose any one but ■
king or a princess has really the perfeot art of saying ‘Thank*
you. It is a mark of good breeding to be prompt and graoious
in giving thanks. Even if the gift is a pinousliion and you
already have ninoty-nine others, say "Thank you” sweetly,
affectionately and in the spirit of Christmas. Do not let twen
ty-four hours pass by. without taking sufficient time to write
an appreciative, affcotionate little note to every one who has re
membered you at Christmas time. Though this may be looked
jS U1 ’9 n as a dut y to others, it is far more than that; it is a duty
‘0 yourself, a very real duty, for to be discourteous is to be
fl seilisli, and to be selfish is to be outside of many oOife’s keen-

Instead of Purgatives
People take too many bars!
'urgative pills and tablets; thej
v d. temporary relief to be sure
b it only temporary. It gets to be
a daily habit and that’s bad. ;
Lately we have been selling a
great deal of a new liquid laxa
tive and bowel tonic. The good
feature about this article is that
it gradually overcomes chronic
constipation and makes the use
of any purgative unntcessi.ry.
The name is
CM© Year's Christmas

New has there been a time when the
Christmas event stood under so impressive
illumination as (t does in this year's Christ-
mastide. Che birth of lesus is this year a
larger fact for the thought and life of the
world than in any year till now. Che phe
nomenon of the life of Teeue and bis power
(n the world forms the summit question in the
thinking of our times. Chough there are some
mournful, defections from the divine truth
of the manger event, the aggregate state of
Christendom exhibits the ever enduring
cower of the grace that then and there came to
seek and save the lost. N© period _ basever
seen such wide circulation and study of the
Roly Scriptures as the present, although re
cent events have demonstrated the still ejfist-
inS need of closer adherence to the divine
principle of “peace on earth, good will to
men ” Che evangel of a Saviour come thrills
more hearts this Christmas than in any other
year of this dispensation.
Accept Pm best wishes
for a very
Merry Christmas. .
