GATEWAY TO SUCCESS
Success is assured to you if you
spend less than you earn and bank the
difference.
Wise old Ben Fiankliu said :
Be honest,
Work hard,
Save some,
And success is sure.
We believe most of you are honest
and work hard, but how many are re
gularly saving something? Not as many
as can do so we ate sure.
Of>eu an account to-day and we will
keep your money safely for you until
needed.

NEW FALL STYLE
AMERICAN LADY CORSETS.
Corsets have never been so Important a factor
in Women's Fashions before
Today, if you want a suit or dress to
look anything near right the Corset must
be one of this season’s long models.
The change merely makes the hips
less pronounced and the curves of the
back much more marked and attractive.
On the whole, they’re just the most
comfortable corset you have worn.
There’s nochange in the style except
the bust is much lower. The new models
start at $1-25 and go up to $2.50.
American Lady Corsets (as
illustration), except the bust is much
lower, $1.50.
Other new low bust models up to

YOUNG WOMAN COM
MITS SUICIDE.
Lillibelle Bays Takes Car
bolic Acid and Dies
This Morning.
A distressing case of suicide look place
last night about ten o'clock, in winch a
young girl ftsdishly took her own life
without apparently much cause. Lilli,
lielie Bays, daughter of W. N, Bays, is
the young noman, and she is about 18
yevrs of age.
She resided with her parents at Blaine,
in this county, and had attended school
in District No. 83, where she had just
passed successfully the eighth grade
examination. She had previous to that
clerked in Haltom's department store
in this city. Wednesday evening she
attended the prayer meeting at the Rev.
R. Y. Blalock's residence, and left for
home in company with her sister, Miss
Bessie Bays, Manual Borba and Oscar
Johnson She was most cheerful all the
evening and there were no indication
that anything was troubling her. When
about half a mile from home she left
her sister nnd the two young men and
went home. This was about ten o'clock.
When she arrived home her parents had
retired for the night and the house was
¡n darkness. She went to a locker and
took a bottle of carbolic acid and drank
a part of it, and replacing the cork,
placed the bottle on the stove. She then
sat down in a chair, and her parents
hearings peculiar gurgling noise arose
to see what was the cause, when to theil
horror and surprise they found that
their daughter had taken poison, for ths
bottle on the stove told what had hap
pened, When found the young woman
was in a semi unconscious condition and
grew worse. Dr. Boats was sent for, but
she died at two o'clock thia morning, a
few minutes before the doctor arrived.
At first it was thought that the young
woman bad taken the poison acci
dentally, but there appears to be a
general opinion in the neighborhood
that she did so with suicidal intent. She
appeared to be in the best of spirit when
she left her sister and the two young
men, and they could not account f5r her
rash act when apprised of what had
hnppened.
