That's why Chesterfields are like a
good cup of coffee they taste fine and,
in addition, they satisfy!
But, besides letting you know you've
been smoking, Chesterfields are MILD,
too!
Chesterfield is the one cigarette that
can give you this new delight (satisfy, yet
mild), because no cigarette maker can
copy the Chesterfield blend an entirely new
combination of tobaccos and the greatest
advance in cigarette blending in 20 years.,

TOY A BTOHNESS LOCAL NO
As It Used To Be
(Hugh McQueen. 1838)
Every unfledged nestling in politics
turns with an eye of solicitation to a
seat in the state legislature. Every
politician of mature age, whose char
acter is not in a positive degree insuf
ferable, is looking forward with tu
multuous eagerness to a place in the
hall of national representatives, to a
situation in one of the cabinet depart
ments, or in the diplomatic service of
the country.
Ever decent citizen is panting for
some post of public preferment and
profit. t?e who have not been suf
ficiently fortunate to obtain any oth
er post are Dosting their way with a
provident share of speed to the Re
public of Texas.
Politics, indeed, appear to swallow
every other interest and the whole
surface of the earth seems covered
with politicians as Egypt once swarm
ed with locusts. Extract from Uni
versity Address in 1838.
WEALTM THAT W0!
Money saved and deposited in a bank is
4 wealth that works. Wealth that works is
capital. Unlike brain and muscle, it does
not wear out or deteriorate. It grows and
improves.
The only gain from labor is what is saved.
Labor, therefore, makes wealth and when
wealth works it is capital.
Capital at work pays wages, which wben
saved, creates more capital. Labor is the
producer when labor saves.
Savings bring independence. A savings bank is
a publi servant.
