a Home Institution.

The Maury County Building and
Loan Association has been quietly,
but very successfully operated in
Columbia for more than nine years,
and is a well established, solid, tinan-
ciaI institution of the town. We give
the following reasons why the citi-
Zens of Columbia and Maury County
should patrOniZe and sustain this
Home Institution in preference TO
the so-called National Building and
Loan Associations.
list. The Home Association is
managed by well known business
men, who have grown up in your
midst, and who are directly under
the supervision and control OF the
stockholders.
End. The office and books of the
Institution are always at hand free TO
be inspected by any member, and
every dollar paid in by the members
stays at home, and is repaid or loan
ed out to persons residing in Maury
County.
Bird. Because it has proven byyears
of successful operation, that it is
safe, sound and very profitable to the
investors, very advantageous to bor-
rowing members, and is a public and
private benefactor.
4tl. because from more bnau Hlnc
wears experience it is found that more
than eight tenth of all the stock
taken is withdrawn before maturity,
and from tables to be found elsewhere
in this paper, it is shown that money
invested in this Association always

as he has paid in.
9Th. Because q member can with
draw his money from the Home As
sociation, upon 80 to go days notice,
when he needs il most, and always
gets back all the money paid in ex-
cept 20 cents on the share, and a
profit of from to IA cents per an
mum for the time his money has been
invested, while in the usual National
Building and Loan Association he
will not only fail to realize any profit,
but will loose at least 10 per cent oil
the money paid in.
9Th. Because the Home Assocla-
ton was originated by the stock foI
the mutual benefit OF the stock
holders, and all the profits are regu-
larly and equally twice year divid-
ed among all the stockholders, while
the National Associations are organ
lied by the officers, operated by the
officers, and run for the benefit OF the
officers.

Last Friday morning some one
passing along the MOoresville pike
discovered q blaze issuing from the
roof of the large eight room build
ing owned aud occupied by Mrs. M.
NJ. Fleming. The neighbors soon
gathered there and rendered every
assistance, but it was impossible to
check the flames, which soon COM
pletely destroyed the building. The
loss is particularly heavy, the estI-
mated loss being about $4,000, with
no insurance. Mrs. Fleming is the
mother of Mr.. s. II. Maxwell Of our
city. The family will probably stay
in Bigbyville until the arrangements
that are now being made for rebuild
ing :shall have been completed.
