Emperor Francis Joseph of Austria who died the other day af the ago cf *7 years and after an eventful and tragic reign of over 68 years never slept more than five hours a day. Jt is said that he rose at 5 o'clock in the morning and had a breakfast of fresh boiled ham, rolls and coffee and then strolled until 6 o'clock when he began his day's work. That is theN same prescription of Mr. Edison the retention of youth and vigor. Little sleeping, little eating and much working. Then you do not find so much time to give to your neighbor's business and not so much for gossip. It is a good prescription.

The Herald and News prints today the statements of several of the bants i of the county under the call mad? .-of November 17. We have statements from the four banks in the city an I two in the county. The four banks of the city make a fine showing and so do the two from the county. Take the c&ty banks and all of them show a marked increase in the amount of loans and deposits as compared with the statements as made under the September call. It is not our purpose to make any comparison a3 to the several i.anks but if you will look at the statements you will see th,it the four show a " *A/v,A1>0 ? trttal I total loan or $i,4uutivi.<o ciuu a tv | deposit account of $1,446,970.69. And all of them have a less amount, o" money borrowed, the Commercial showing none at all. The total is only $114,760.16. All of them show I a good amount carried to the surrmis j account and a decided increase over the amount as it appeared in the Septom-h?r statement. The National Bank has just doubled its surplus and un-j divided profit account since Septem-j ber. These statements show a healthy j financial condition and money should j be cheaper. Comparing the loans with i the deposits it verifies a statement we saw once that a bank made money j out of what it owed. MY MASCOT FAILED. My mascot failed me on last Sunday. He may not have been entirely to blame. It was partly the street and maybe partly the fact that w? ? * I should have remained at nome. auj i way, we did not, and as we werei driving along through the streets of J Prosperity, and we were observing J the speed law not to exceed ten! miles the hour, a spring popped right; in front of the Wise hotel. We had started to St. Pauls Lutheran church) for preaching. That is my old hom}| church, you know, the church r t myj childhood. And I always 7 e j go j back and the older I gr< e -.lorej fond I am going there tc i ing. J Incidentally I was going to .iome: of Mr. and Mrs. E. H. Werts v- Red") j for dinner. Mrs. Werts, at the Pros-j perity fair on Friday, had invited mei ro?.f said j to come anu unu6 * they were going to kill hogs on Sat- j urday morning, and, of course, I ac-i cepted the invitation, and it was a great disappointment to all of us that we were denied the pleasure of eat- j ing that dinner and spending a few! hours with these good people. But then it might have been a great deal worse. The spring might have broken when we were several miles away j from a doctor or anywhere to stop, j Any you recall it broke in front of the Wise hotel. So I just unloaded f therp and these people always have j something good tc eat and we had a good dinner with our cousins. Mr .Tim Hunt came to our rescue; and Firge Wise had a spring and with j Mr. Hunt to put the spring on we were ready to travel home as soon \ as we had dinner. Mr. Hunt was very j nice about It and was more reason-j able in his cearges than any automobile fixer we have ever run against, J and he did a good job. We took 111 and the mascot backj - in that country on Tuesday and wentj over our new road from St. Pauls fcy the old home and we are -pIeafle*Wto see that the road is beir j * ised.; Statement of tl Tko l nmm A 11V Wiauaa Located at Newberry, S.

But the scenery and the landscape and the beauty of nature still remain and you look out and feel that you are in the mountains of North Carolina. It is a great old place.
