You can best avoid this situation by keeping careful records of deposits ancf withdrawals; but We recently heard of an ingenious extra precaution used by one depositor. This man made out a check for $25 to himself and tore it up -- but entered the amount on the stub as a withdrawal ' Thus, the balance shown on his records is less than his actual balance; so the likelihood of his making an actual overdraft is snnall. • * * h HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF It was in the 1800's that the manuscript of a great work of history, representing years of work by Thomas Carlyje, was accidentally thrown into a fireplace and burned to ashes. It was just a few weeks ago that a bundle of important personal papers, representing years of (work by an American householder, was thrown out with the A trash . Carlyle simply set to work and rewrote his book; but how readily can the householder -- how readily could you -- replace the deed to a home, securities, a Will ?
