For your summer outing allow us to
suggest Colorado and Utah, famous
the world over for their cool and in
vigorating climate, magnificent moun
tain scenery and picturesque summer
resorts, which are located along the
line of the Denver & Rio Grande,
“The Scenic Line of the World,” and
the Rio Grande Western, “The <_ .eat
Salt Lake Route.” Very low excur
sion rates and “Circle” tour tickets
are on sale during the summer months
via these lines to all the principal
points of interest. The Denver & Rio
Grande and the Rio Grande Western,
with their numerous branches pene
trating the great states of Colorado
and Utah have some forty different
“Circle” tours through the Rocky
mountains, one of which in particular
is the famous 1,000-n.ile tour for
§28.00, which comprises more noted
scenery than any' similar trip in the
world, passing the following points of
interest: La Veta Pass, Poncha Pass,
Toltec Gorge, Indian reservations,
Durango, Mancos Canon, Rico, Lizard
| Head Pass, Las Animas Canon, Silver
ton, Ouray, Cimarron Canon, Black
Canon of the Gunnison, Marshall Pass
and the Royal Gorge. This trip can
be comfortably made in live days, but
at least ten day's should be devoted to
it, so that one may view at leisure the
principal sights. Tickets at very low
| rates are also on sale to Salt Lake
City, Utah. If you contemplate a trip

This Bank has an authorized
CAPITAL of $100,000.00.
An authorized and subscribed Capital is a convenient thing—
good thing for advertising purposes, but to be perfectly honest,
and tell our patrons the truth, it really counts for little. We
could have had, just as easily, a Subscribed Capital of
$500,000. It would not have cost us one cent more.
What our patrons are really interested in knowing is, tins
Bank has invested in its business, of ITS OWN MONE1!
$58,000.00 OF CASH PAID IN CAPITAL and iundvided
protits. That is the reason this Bank is prepared to take good
care of your business. And we assure you that MORE CAPI
