Read This Carefully.

And then make up your mind that it would be good investment to become a stockholder in the
 MERCANTILE COOPERATIVE BANK, with branch office at Room 19, Platt's block. For the readers instruction I will give the following illustration
 All shareholders pay $1 per share in monthly dues. The borrower upon ob- taiping his loan pays an additional $1 per share on his pledged shares together with 33-5 per cent. interest, making 80 cents per month on each $100 borrowed, or $1.3O on each pledged share for the use of the loan. For example, an investing member pays $5 per month in monthly dues on five shares, or $500 in 100 months-the esti- mated time of maturity, and with the first payment or membership fee of $2 per share, he makes total payment of $500 during the 8B years and on the maturity of his shares they will yield him $1, ,OOO, making profit of $490 even on the long time in which the shares are estimated to- mature.
