to do our business smoothly, emcient
ly, and without thought of the cost or
the risks attending.
When vour bank hands you a check
book, it gives you license to draw a3
many checks, in as large or as small
sums as you wish, with the only pro
vision (except in certain cases where
a minimum balance is required) that
vou do not overdraw, and promises to
honor your checks as presented as
long as your balance is sufficient to
pav them.
Whether you want to pay your
c! editor in the next block, or a thou
sand miles away, the checking priv
ilege of a, bank account permits you
to make payment with ease, safety
and dispatch.
When you mail your check your
trouble is over and the bank's has
just begun, for the bank warrants to
you three things, all for your own
protection and at its own risk. It
is well to know them.
It guaiantees: That it will pay
only" the checks you have signed. If
your name is forged and the bank
pays the check, it cannot charge the
amount to your account;
That it will pay only in the sum
originally drawn. If some one gets
your check and raises the amount,
making it apparently a genuine
check, the bank can only charge the
amount in which you originally drew
the check, unless it can show you were
grossly caielsss in so drawing that
you invited fraud. Therefore be care
ful to draw your checks properly; To
pay the party to whom you ordered
the amount paid and none other. If
the check gets into the hands of
strangers who forge the indorsement,
so that t're party to whom you or
dered the money paid does not get it,
the payment is at its risk, and you
are unharmed. ,
All this is ultimately for your
good as a depositor. You know that
your account cannot Be urawn against
except on your order. You know that
tho party you want to receive pay
ment gets it. You get back the most
perfect voucher known to the busi
ness world. Many a dispute has been
settled and loss and law suit avoided
by producing bank vouchers that told
in no uncertain way that payment had
been made according to the intent of
the drawer. Therefore for your own
good you ought to keep your money
in a bank, and draw it out by check.

"The commissioner of pensions in
forms me personally that there are
still living 563 men who fought in tho
old war with Mexico," says a Wash-i
ington letter in the Philadelphia Pub
lic 'Ledger. It says further:
It is seventy years since the war be
gan, and it will be sixty-eight years
on July 4 since it was officially ended.
There were 105,000 United States
troops in that two-year conflict, of
whom 31,000 were regulars and '.he
other militia and volunteere.
These figures are an index of the
p:ice our country would pay today
were it to attempt a complete sub
jugation of Mexico. That republic's
population is now three times as trreat
as it was seventy years ago, whin it
required 10.r,000 American soldiers
two years to make the conquest.
.Military mnn of high rank have
told me recently that we would now
need an army of 400,000 men, of whom
100.000 would be lost during the two
years it is expected a second conquest
of Mexico would irequire.

DON'T BE SATISFIED
WITH THE PENNIES
CREAM-SEPARATOR
Haven't you known people who spent so much time saving a few pen
nies that they hadn't time to do things in a big enough way to
bag the dollars? Let me explain how you can save most.
I honestly believe that the U. S. Cream Separator wiR
save you many days in every year; because it's patented
MECHANICAL WASHER will wash up the few parts in one
third the usual time; because the bowl is ready to "go" any
second without a warm water "starter"; because it has no
"discs" to become worn or to be increased in number, which
always reduces capacity and interferes with uniform good
work.
i
Buying a Separator isn't an "annual event" if you buy a
U. S. Cream Separator. That's one of the ways the U. S.
saves money for you BY OUTLASTING half a dozen cheap
machines. Considering the many extra years of service and
profit it will render you, it is the lowest priced separator on
the market.
The only way to head off constant repair bills from a machine
of any kind is to design it right, and BUILD IT RIGHT of tho
very best materials that can be secured. That's why I do
not figure to make any profit on U. S. Separator repair
bills. They are few and far between.
The U. S. is the WORLD'S RECORD SEPARATOR for closo
skimming, and has been for fifteen years. It not only saves
most cream in skimminc. but also in flushing, for not a par
ticle is wasted in the washing water.
The U. S. Separator saves strength and human energy by it
EASY RUNNING. In the wash-up, all part, can bf placed
in the supply can, and carried under one arm leaving tho
other arm free to carry the cream. Half the number of
steps are necessary. Every pound of human "push" is worth
real money in a long day's work.

The Sooner you gioe me an order for a United States Separator, the
Sooner your Savings will Begin.
