2 THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER FRIDAY, JUNE 7, 1912, TASTE, SMELL AND HEARING RESTORED A Simple, Harmless Remedy Quickly Relieves Catarrhal Deafness. The thonsands who suffer the mis- eries of catarrh, and claim they have mever found a cure, can get instant relief by simply anointing the nos- trils with Ely’s Cream Balm. Unlike internal medicines which upset the stomach or strong snuffs which only aggravate the trouble, this cleansing, healing, antiseptic balm instantly reaches the seat of| charge, clears the nose, head and throat, and brings back the sense of taste, smeil and hearing. More than this, it strengthens the weakened, diseased tissues, thus protecting you agalnst a return of the trouble. Nasal catarrh is an inflammation of the membrane lining the air pas- sages, and cannot be reached with mixtures taken into the stomach or with snuffs and powders which only cause additional irritation. Don’t waste time on them. Get a fifty cent bottle of Ely’s Cream Balm from your druggist, and after using it for 4 day you will wish you had tried it sooner. - I RAILROAD TIME CARDS 800 RAILROAD | _J (7] 162 East Bound Leaves . 9:54 am 163 West Bound Leaves . . 4:37 pm 186 East Bound Leaves ...... 2:45 pm 187 West Bound Leaves ...... 10:38 am GREAT NORTHERN PERFUMER’S DAY WILL COME WOULD STOP FRAUDS Then He Will Have Odors That Will Move Mankind Most Profoundly. A perfumer was talking shop. | “When will my trade,” he said, “de velop as it should? When will perfume sway men’'s minds as drink and fame do now? “I have a dog. Often in the country my dog will spy a dead, rotting, sun- dried bird or fish. The odor of that carcass fills my dog with ecstasy. He rolls upon it in a delirium, It is diffi- cult, even with a club, to make him stop. Well, there, just there, is the perfume that sways dogs, and a dog perfumer, patenting it, would become a billionaire. “The serpent arum is & plant of strong odor. ' The arum has, indeed, a stench. Well, this stench attracts to it from miles around all those insects that fed on carrion. If you look into the cup of the serpent arum you are sure to see a very inferno of insect; drunkards—hundreds of them, intoxi- cated by the arum’s odor, whirling and leaping and spinning in a mad dancce. For the serpent arum’s odor is the odor par excellence of insects, as the Totten, sun-baked fish odor is the odor par excellence 6f dogs. “Have I any perfume that sways mankind like that? No, none. Imag- ine my new-mown hay drawing a lady from her milliner’s or her pet pi- anist’s! Imagine my girofle drawing a man from his beer or hiy jackpot! “Yet the day will coris, T am yiticed, when we shall have perfumes that will move mankind as profoundly 2s the spoiled fish perfume moves a }| dog and ‘as the serpent arum perfuma ! 3 moves the Dermestes and Saprinidae. In that day my address will be River- side drive, Newport, Jekyl Island, Monte Carlo and Los Angeles.” 33 West Bound Leaves 8:30 pm 34 East Bound Leaves 2:08 pm 35 West Bound Leaves 8:42 am 36 East Bound Leaves 3:16 am 36 East Bound Leaves 2:30 am 106 South Bound Leaves 6:30 am Freight West Leaves at 9:00 am Freight East Leaves at 3:30 pm MINNESOTA & INTERNATIONAL 32 South Bound Leaves ...... 8:15 am 31 North bound Leaves 6:15 pm 34 South Bound Leaves . 33 North Bound Leaves ..

DOUBLE CHECK ON FORGERY Defalcation by Employees Might Be Prevented If Carbon Copies of Examining Committee’s Semi- Annual Reports Were Sent to Washington, By GEORGE CLINTON. Washington.—Comptroller of the Currency Lawrence O. Murray has made a study of some of the methods by which banks occasionally are de- frauded by their employes.. -‘He has had a number of -specific cases put before him and as a result of his in- vestigations he thinks 'that such un- fortunate occurrences as these and many that have preceded them may be avoided in the future if the national banks will co-operate with his office in the plan which he has just suggest- ed to them. This is nothing more nor less than the simple device of sending | to his office a carbon copy of the semi- annual report made by the examining committee of the board of directors of each bank—the report which states ‘in ]mct r%whlte what the dh‘ectoru aluwn hank, vien Mr Murray assumed omcc about 3,000, or between 30 and 40 per cent of the national banks, had no by ws and tharefore made no_provigion " T e‘x"fimlnlng cotimlttees, Théy now ‘ a1l have adopted by-laws suggested by the comptroller and are fitted -out with regularly appointed ~ examining commiittees. When “carbon coples of -the reports are sent to the comptroller & study will be made of them which will be supplementary to the -gtudy made in the bank. In this way it is be- lleved that the depositors and stock- holders will_have a double check against loss from defalcation and forgery. Some Specimen Cases. Here are some of the cases which moved the comptroller of the currency to act: George W. Coleman, bookkeeper of the National City bank of Cambridge, Mass., kept a small personal acc_ount on the individual ledger. He would “kite” his own checks through a Bos- ton curb broker and abstract them | from the mail as they came back from the clearing house, as the cashier never saw the contents of the clearing house letters and simply posted the totals of the letters on the cash book. The general ledger and the general | cash book were kept by the cashler.‘ In order to make the total amount of deposits in the tndividual ledger agree with the amount shown by thesgen- | eral ledger, Coleman resorted to false debit entries (plugs) and the redue-' tion of balances when carrying for- ward accounts. Within five years { Coleman looted the bank of more than i $200,000 and he is. now serving a long | The direc- | term in the state prison. tors noticed the -reduction of the de- posits in the bank, but attributed it to competition. The defalcation was not discovered until the books were ex- | amined by the auditors of the Harvard Trust company, te which concern the directors had agreed to sell out. Henry M. Dearing, cashier of the Al- i blon National bank of Albion, Mich., “Well, I'll show you ! is serving a term in prison. A search of the cashier’s desk. after the closing of the bank, disclosed leaves removed from the loose leaf individual and sav- | Ings depositors’ ledgers carrying cred- {1t balances aggregating $185,317.41, which of course represented a short- age In each of an equal amount. This method of “covering” had been in vogue since the bank began business. The cashler stated to the examiner that he found no difficulty at all in The bills re- | ceivable were added by him on an add- 1 ing machine; the list was checked with the notes of the directors, but at no time, the cashier stated, did the directors check the total of the add- ing machine list with the general ledger. The assistant cashier stated that practically all of the manufactur- ing customers’ notes owned by the bank were forgeries. Not Balanced for Three Years. Earl Stannard, bookkeeper of a na- tional bank at Pomona, Cal., is under arrest on the charge of abstracting more than $150,000 of the funds of the bank. One of his meéthods it is al- leged was that employed by Coleman —of extracting the clearing items from the morning mail before they were seen by the cashier or others and destroying all items in favor of an oil company in which he was interest. ed. Of the fifty-six pages of Inactive accounts, thirty-six, it is charged, were falsified for a total of more than $100,- 000. Not for over three years had the active and inactive ledgers been foot- ed and balanced on the same day. F. T. Arnold, cashier of the First National bank of New Berlin, N. Y., is awalting trfal because of an estle mated shortage of about $150,000 in the deposit acceunt. He s charged with issuing certificates of deposit which he failed to register, or if regis- tered the entrles were for a lower amount than the face of the certifi- cate called for. no one but Arnold was allowed to his handwriting and presents many evidences of erasures and changes in figures. It is sald he concealed his work in several other ways.
