 For instance, suppose that man holds shares, he is entitled to apply for loan of $1,000, as the maturity value of his shares is $1 ,000. If he owns lot worth say $40O, and wishes to build a home upon it for say, $1 ,O00, he can apply for loan of S1 ,000, and will get $500 as the first in stallment on his $400 lot. With that $500 he can commence building, and on the ex- penditure of that amount, his lot will be worth S700 and he can borrow another in- stallment on furnishing the bank a certi- ticate from the architect, builder or con- tractor of such expenditure, and so from time to time, as the building progresses he can draw his installments, as he needs them, so that on the completion of the building, he will have his full $1 ,000 loan, and the bank will have a first mort gage on the property, which will then be worth S1 400, and ample security for the money borrowed.

although the railroad men saw it start
they were unable to overtake it. Ten

engine was detached and the crew started
in pursuit of the stolen train. Seven miles
west of here the work train was found
standing on the track, but no trace of the
tramp was discovered. Steam was up in
the engine, but the thug was evidently
afraid to run by the next town and so de-

A st. Louis Man Who Seems to Have
Good Case.
ST. LOUIS Mo-, June 23.-In the circuit
court here Herman Keatz has filed petit
ton for divorce from his wife. In it he
says that he had been married "a year when
a stranger appeared at his house, and into
his arms his wife rushed, claiming him as
her brother. The stranger said he had
just returned from California, where he
been for eleven years. Keatz extended
him hearty welcome, and invited him to
make his house his home. This the brother
would not do unless Keatz allowed him to
pay his board.
He Wasn't Expected That Day.
A nominal sum was fixed, and
Keatz and the man became intimate
friends, while the wife and sister was
happy. One day the husband unexpected
ly came home and found suspicious state
of affairs. At the muzzle of revolver he
exacted the confession that the brothers
business had been arranged between the
wife and her former sweetheart, whose
name was Walter Taylor; that he was no
relative of Mrs. Keatz, and hence the di-
vorce proceedings of the wronged man.
