Every institution and individaal, no matter how
the tide of affairs have gone, have good reasons for be
ing thankful for all the good things that have come to
them.
For our ability to serve our customers and friends
with the very best banking facilities; for our friends
and customers who have been loyal during the trying
days of the past year; for the security and protection

who may become our patrons, we are deeply grateful.
To one and all we extend our gratitude, and join
with the multitudes in this land, in observing Thurs
day as a National Thanksgiving Day.
Cordially yours,
President.

Many a man and many a woman
feels all out of sorts from thin, weak

I difficulties, they are downed, Nerves)
t are on edge. Appetite lags, Sleep is
restless. They are weak and tired
and dull. Poor blood works havoc
till the will loses its pnwer. tew
people who fall into habits of wor
rying seldom realize that if ever
most of their troubles are due to
lack of endurance to blood that hg!)
become weakened by overwork or
straining.
Healthy men and women with
rich, red blood see things brightly.
They tackle life with zest and go
along smilingly, full of eagurnus*
and ondurance.
Gude’s Pepto-Mangan taken stead
ily restores the blood to its natural
’richness. It actually makes red
corpuscles, the tiny particles in the
blood which make it red. Druggists
