IrIsA NATIONAL SAVINGS BASK.-W bile thi-
loan presents great advantages to large capitals
ists, Is offers special inducements to those who
wish to make safe and profitable investment OF
small savings. IL is in every way the best saw
ings bank; for every institution Of this kind
must somehow invest its deposits proftably In
order 70 pay interest and expenses. They will
invest largely in this loan as the best investment.
But from the gross interest which they receive
they must deduct largely for the expenses OF the
bank. Their usual rate Of interest allowed 10 de-
postors Is per cent. upon sums over $500 The
person who invests directly with government will
reeve almost $50 per cent more. Thus the man
who deposits 81 900 in a private savings bank
receives so year interest; if he deposits the
same sum IN this National Savings Bank he re
ceives 10 dollars. For those who wish to find a
safe, convenient and profitable means of invest
ing the surplus earnings which they have reser
we'd for their old age for the benefit of their
children there i nothing which presents 80 many
advantages a. this national loan.
