STAVIST HIS is a banker, We have often borrowed money from this gentleman, and found him invariably polite and accommodating. We might mention that this state of affairs usually occurred after he had taken out his spectroscope and his mi- croscope and looked over our collater- al; also after he had examined our heart, tested our lungs, and ascertained our position in the social circle in which he is a shining light. The banker is an honorable man from three o'clock in the afternoon until nine the next morning. At all other times he is a banker. He keeps money in a steel safe, and the people who own the money have such confi- dence in him that they let him open the safe at such times as they or some- one else can be present. The banker pays out money to all who call and who have previously put it in his box; that is, he pays out money when times are prosperous and no- body wants it particularly. But when everybody wants it, then the banker does not pay it out with the same abandon that he did before, His man- ner is cold and chilly and strikes you to the bone. Sometimes the bank examiner calls and looks the banker over; if the banker is on friendly terms with the government and often helps it out, then the bank examiner does not look him over so carefully. , We are always glad, however, when the bank examiner comes—and goes, because For several days after that we feel easy in our minds. Not absolutely care free, you under- stand, but easier than usual. “VYJHAT happens when you are weighed in the balance and found wanting?” “T suppose you are exempted.” What Time is It? ‘OU can see the correct time in the dark—if you own an Ingersoll Radiolite.
