IT PAYS TO BE PLEASANT. It always pays to be pleasant and courteous, especially to women. The short, sharp answer of a clerk of the United Banking and Savings company of Cleveland, O., when asked by a woman depositor for her funds, caused a run that lasted two days and nearly broke up the institution. The woman had called out of hours and the clerk briefly told her she would have to wait. She went out and told a friend, the friend told another friend that depositors could not get their money. In shorttime an anxious crowd was besieging the bank for their cash. It took the bank two days working both day and night to satisfy the crazy mob and it will probably suffer from the ef fects of the run for some time. It is probable that the next woman depositor who asks that bank for money will get it instanter and with the utmost graciousness.
