A bank account, like all other habits. Is larqely a matter of
DOING IT ONCE. In thinking of mantalnlng a bank ac
count you do not have to look forward to years of scrupulous,
hard-fought saving—you have only to make a start NOW.
One or five dollars In that bank seems easy enough you
could as well as not put THAT MUCH Ir NOW, Well, that Is
the answer—for a second deposit will certainly follow. You'll
soon get to thinking about it as a matter of course. Keepinq
adding a little and leave it alone—that Is the whole story.
TRY IT.

WEEK’S MISSION IT
SICKED DEIS! CHURCH
Will Commence Duriiig the 11
O'Clock Mass Next Sunday.
Intent of the Missions.
Next Honday. March 15, during the
11 o’clock mass a week’s mission will
begin at the Sacred Heart church.
Theae mianlona are intendetl primarily
for the reawakening ami renewed ac
tivity of Christian principles of life
and eonduet. And that they achieve
their object I* abundantly proved by
the remarkable results they produce
wherever they are preached. Men and
women who have strayed far from the
paths of righteousness have Felt their
hearts new-opened as they listened to
the grand fundamental truths of
t'hristiau morality. Thousand* of these
contrite prodigals return to their
Father’s home and never tease to
thank Hod for the gnat grace of the
mission which wrought so powerfully
In their souls.
F\cn from a purely civic standpoint
the coining mission ought to meet
with ever■> possible encouragemfnt as
it will be a powerful force working for
tbe mm I uplift of our citizens.
The two fathers who are to conduct
the exercises at the Sacred Heart
church for the mining week are men
whose oratorical ability and wonderful
success In missionary work have been
icognized throughout the country.

mons :

COMPLETE HOUSEFURN Ig,HERSI
SUPREME BENCH
FOR MR. TIFT?
Washington Hears Report That
Justice Holmes is to Retire to
Make Place For ex-President.
The following is from the Washing
ton correspondence of The New York
Herald o' Tuesday:
Professor William Howard Taft, of
New Haven, Conn., formerly presi
dent of the United States, will be a|i
iadnted a United States supreme
court Justice by President Wilson.
This Information comes to The Her
ald from an unquestioned authority.
From the same authoritative source
it Is learned that the resignation ot
Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, of
Massachusetts, will make the vacan
cy which Mr. Taft will fill.
The date of Mr. Taft’s appointment
is contingent upon the time required
for the disposition of Important cases
which have the especial consideration
of Justice Holmes, but it is regarded
as certain that, barring unforeseen
exigencies, Mr. Taft will terminate
his Yale professorship within a year.
In fact, there is very authentic
ground for the statement that Mr.
Taft already has made tentative ar
rangements for severing his connec
tion with Yale and for again taking
tip his residence In Washington.
One of the White House officials
said he had no Information on which
to confirm the report.
Justice Holmes' Wish.
Justice Holmes' desire »o divest
himself oT Judicial cures and responsi
bilities is the sole motive for his con
templated action, it is hinted, how
ever. that his resolve to he relieved
of the exacting duties which have en
grossed ills time and attention for
twelve years Is reinforced and hasten
ed by a desire to see Mr. Taft on the
supreme bench. Rut whatever in
fluence the pending apoplntment of
Mr. Taft may have exerted in dictat
ing Justice Holmes’ decision to retire
lias been subjective. Not the faint
est whisper that his retirement would
be agreeable has escaped tho lips ot
President Wilson, or any of Justice
Holmes' colleagues or any of Mr.
Taft's friends.
Said to Be Eager.
It is said on unimpeachable author
ity thut Pros like nt Wilson sounded
Mr. Talt on the question of his ac
re; ting a supreme court justiceship
several months ago and that Mr. Tatt
after consideration expressed his wil
lingness—even eagerness—to go on
the bench. He wanted first, however,
to continue in his Yale professorship
long enough to be sure that his ser
vice made more titan a passing im
pression "I would not have it go
out for the world that I was merely
marking time at Yale," the one-time
president is reported to have said
It Is said that a small circle out
side of those Immediately concerned
has known of Mr. Taft's coming ap
pointment for three months, but that
they were In the dark long concern
ing the identity of the Justice who
was to retire. The favored few who
were informed regarding the selection
of Mr Taft speculated among them
selves about the retiring Justice and
were divided in their opinions whetn
er jt would be Justice Joseph Mc-

Preserves Political Complexion.
Geographically, the appointment of
Mr. Taft, who is now a resident of
New Haven, will he esi eoially satis
factory to New England, for it will
continue its representation on the su
preme court bench. Politically, it
will not change the complexion of the
court, for Justice Holmes is a repub
lican. Justice Holmes is a graduate
of Harvard, but he has a L. U D.
from Yale as well as from Harvard,
Williams and Merlin. Immediately
after his graduation he enlisted for
the civil war. He was wounded three
times, and front one wound. It Is said,
he did not entirely recover. His
