members. The membership to-day lias
increased to 13.H00. Charles S. 8011,
president of the Union Trust Company
stated to-day that this year's savings
surpassed all expectations.
The Security Trust Company, North
Third street near Walnut, also has a
savings fund known as the Holiday
Savings Fund. This company, too, re
ports a large membership.
Andrew S. Patterson, treasurer of
the Union Trust Company, has ar
ranged for the delivery of the checks
to the Harrisburg Post Office next
Wednesday or Thursday. Enclosed
with the checks will be a card express
ing the best wlslies of the Union Trust
Company to their customers and noti
fying them that another fund will be
started on December 2.1
It will require a wagon to carry the
thousands of checks to the Post Office.
The amounts to be distributed by
the Union Trust Company will var>
from 112,50 to {63.75 for each mem
ber. The members paid in each week
1, 2 and 5 cents, In three classes. Some
reversed the payments, starting with
the largest amount and quitting with
the smallest. This required weekly
payments of s2.r>o, Jl.oo and ."0 cents.
There were also three classes for a Hat
•weekly payment of 20 and 50 cents
and $1 each week.
A Task W ell Worth WJille
It was a difficult task to take care
of the large membership this year.
President 8011, however, feels that the
trouble was well worth while In view
of the fact that an army of at least
15,000 shoppers will get busy for
Christinas, giving the money a wide
circulation.
Officials of the Security Trust an.
much gratified over their success the
first year. Payments there will bt
similar to those by the Union Trusi
Company. Figures will not be forth
coming until next week. The second
year of the Holiday Savings Fund will
start one week later with the Security
Trust Company.
At the East End Bank a Christmas
Thrift Fund will tie started within ten
days. This fund Is already attracting
unusual interest and promises a large
membership during the first year.
WINTER STOKE.
Dreary will lie the winter to him
whose granaries are empty. But
drearier and more desolate still must
be the winter of old age to the man
or woman whose mind and heart and
soul have brought from the harvest
only the joys that are chafT and Ihe
virtues that are mere windfalls, at
tained and adhered to only through
easy convenience.
When that winter comes, ...s it must
to many of us, we shall have only our
selves to turn to, and we shall find
only that which we have sown and
harvested in the bright Spring alia
golden summer—the good grain, the
sound fruit, the flowers, the high im
pulses, the sacrifices, the loves, yes.
and the cheat, the chaff, the weeds, the
windfalls, the hates, the jealousies,
the low passions—all these and noth
ing more, to sustain us or to render
[us desolate. —The Christian Herald.

A DIFFKKKNCK INDEED.
A missionary, having preached in
a villaee in North India, was ac
costed by a Mohammedan gentleman,
who compared Christianity unfavor
ably with his own religion on the
ground that when Moslems go to
Mecca they find at least a coffin, bgt
when they go to Jerusalem, the Chris
tians' Mecca, they tlnd nothing but an
empty grave. "Yes," said the mission
ary quickly, "that is Just the differ
ence. Mohammed is dead. Moham
med is in l'ls colfin. The founders
of all these false systems of religion
and philosophy are in their graves.
But Jesus Christ, who is to rule over*
all, is not in the tomb. Death could
not hold him. He is risen." —The
Christian Herald.
XO MORE "BANK PANICS"
New York. l>eo. 4. Panic, due to
distrust of banks, has been relegated
to the Museum of Antiquities by the
new reserve banking system, in the
opinion of C. S. Hainlin, governor of
the Federal Reserve Board, voiced this,
afternoon in a speech before the New
York Chamber of Commerce,
The winter may be dull and slushy
in our towns, but "up'' country in the
snow-clad hills and by the ice-bound
lakes and streams the weather is the
kind we make so wMI in America:
the brisk, clear, tingling winter, with
the sun bright upon dry, powdery
snow—the only weather, to put it
briefly, which can for a moment risk
comparison with Southern airs heavy
with the scent of orange-blossom*.
The winter holiday where it is winter
in winter is in its infancy only, but
it bids fair to rival the holiday where
it is summer in winter- It has the
advantage of never being an admis
sion of ages or illness, but instead a
boast of youth and health, ready to
face with red cheeks and gaiety the
challenge of the frost.
The country, as opposed to the
town, is still increasingly successful
every year. People who can afford it
(doubtless some who can't) keep
their country house open—or half
way open—through the whole winter,
and go to it for Thanksgiving of the
"old-fashioned Christmas," or just for
week-end flurries in the snow.

Many a face is made with beauti
ful contour and artistically lined, but
when the skin is discolored one can
not see the beauty of the face lines.
One notices only the skin blemishes.
It's because pimples and eruptions
come from the inside—from impure
blood —and you can't cure them by
rubbing stuff on the outside of the
face. Purify the blood and the blem
ishes will disappear.

clear the complexion in a few- days'
time. That's the wonderful part of
it—they act right off—in a hurry.
That's because they're made of Just

poisons and impurities from the blood.
That's why doctors prescribe them ■<»

ful little Wafers. Your face will be
come as clear and pure as a rose.

THIS FORMULA REALLY
MAKES HAIR GROW *
Some time ai?o I read in your paper a
formula for a preparation which was
claimed to destroy the dandruff germ
and to strongly stimulate the hair
growth. In spite of the fact that I had
already tried many preparation! with
out benefit, and my hair was thin and
falling; out very fast, I decided to give
your formula h trial. Accordingly, I got
my chemist to put up 6 ounces of Bay
Hum, - ounces of Lavona de Composee.
and dram of Menthol Crystals. end
applied it regularly every morning and
night, rubbing carefully Into the scalp
with the tinger tips. Much to nay de
light and astonishment the Intolerable
itching ceased with the first applica
tion. the dandruff disappeared, the fall
ing out of the hajr stopped completely,
and bv the time I had used four bottlea
I had a finer, longer and more luxuriant
growth of hair than I had ever had be
fore. I have since recommended thia
formula to many of my friends witl*
equally wonderful results. I under
stand that this formula can be prepared
bv all chemists and druggists, and f
strongly advise all your readara who
have not yet given it a trial to do so
immediately.—T. H. P.
