How TO SECURE HoMEs.-This question is
being satisfactorily solved, we are glad to see,
by goodly number of clerks In the Depart.
ments and other Government employees. who,
having seen the importance OF securing home
steads for their families, and felt the unsatis-
factory results OF renting houses, are availing
themselves OF the many opportunities offered
through building and co.opsrauve societies of
securing lots and erecting houses. Paying
house rent is like paying gas bills, very IN
satisfactory, TO say the least of It. Most per-
sons can, by judicious and frugal conduct, pay
for q moderals tenement such as II suited TO
their wants, in few years: and the agencies
above referred TO. and the long time generally
given in the purchase OF lots, put II In the
power Of almost every man to obtain home
for his family. The Dement'S accruing 70 them-
selves bv this course can only b appreciated
by those who have tried the differences be.
tween owning and renting.
