LET YOUR MONEY
HELP YOU WORK.
The \\ indham City Savings
Bank in Connecticut recently
had a bank book brought in
that they had not seen for nine
teen years and on which no
money had been drawn or de
posited since 1871. In that
year, SBOO was deposited. Com
pound interest had increased
the *BOO to $2,000 $1,5C0 clear
train to the depositor, money he
didn t have to turn his finger
over for. This illustrates the
wonderful power of compound
interest. Aft;.'r you work for
your money, your money works
for ycu, if you put it in a good
bank.
