Are You
Successful ?
If you are not successful—who is to blame? You
notice all around you successful men—don't you?
Many of them have had no better opportunities than
you—some of them not as good. The successful man
avails himself of his opportunities. The unsuccessful
man does not. One of the opportunities that make for
success is a Bank Account. Have you one at this
Bank? Try it for a year. Then note the progres
you have made.
A Bank Account is the Ladder by which
many men have mounted to Success.

Those Chinese Junks.
The Chinese junk is to most western
eyes a curious, not ro say outlandish,
type of vessel. Yet a nautical authori
ty in picturing and describing a fa
mous craft of this kind which visited
Europe and America as long ago as
1848 says that she proved herself an
excellent sea boat, with powers of
weathering a storm equal, if not su
perior, to vessels of western build.
This Junk, the Keying, is also declared 1
to have made a run "equal to tlie time
of the best packet ships of the period." '
Information of this kind about foreign
methods is often truly educative to
Americans inclined to be boastful.— ,
