Special advantages Of this Loan.
IT is A NATIONAL SAVINGS BANK, offering a
higher rate of interest than any other, and the
BEST sEoUhITY. Any savings bank which pays
its depostor1 in U. s. Notes, considers that it is
paying in the best circulating medium of the
country, and it cannot pay in anything better,
or its own assets are either in government Sc
curities or in notes or bonds payable in govern
ment paper.
1t is equally convenient as temporary or per-
manent investment. The notes can always be
sold for within fraction of their face and accu-
INFLATED interest, and are the best security with
banks as collaterals for discounts.
Convertible into n Six percent $40 Bond.
In addition to the very liberal interest on the
notes for three years this privilege of conversion
is now worth about three per cent per annum, for
the current rate for $40 Bonds is not less than
NINE percent PREMIUM and before the war the
premium on six percent U s. Stocks was over
twenty per cent. 1t will be seen that the actual
profit on this loan, at the present market rate is
not less than ten per cent per annum.
Its Exemption from state or Municipal Tax
alton.
But aside from all the advantages we have emu
merated a special Act Of Congress ExEMPTs ALL
BONDS AND TREASURY NOTES FROM LOCAL TAX-
ALTON. On the average, this exemption is worth
about two per cent per annum, according to the
rate of taxation in various parts of the country.
1t is believed that no securities offer so great
inducements to lenders as those issued by the
government. In all other forms of indebtedness,
the faith or ability of private parties, or stock
companies, or separate communities, only is
pledged for payment, while the whole property
of the country is held to secure the discharge of
all the obligations of the United Stares
While the government offers the most liberal
terms for its loans, it believes that the very
tstrongest appeal will be to the loyalty and pat
riotism of the people.
Duplicate certificates will be issued for all de.
posits The party depositing must endorse upon
the ORIGINAL certificate the demon inatioD OF
notes required, and whether they are to be issued
in blank or payable to order. When so endorsed
it must be left with the officer receiving the de-
post, to be forwarded to the Treasury Depart
mcnt.

err of the United States at Washington, the sew
eral Assistant Treasurcrs and designated Deposit

field, Vt, and the First National Bank of st. AL
