Better Than . Savings Bank

Is an investment in Real Estate.
It cannot be stolen, neither can it
be destroyed by fire. 1t is a saw
ings bank which never breaks, and
it pays large interest to its deposit
tors. 1t has been truly said that
real estate is the basis of all
wealth, and he or she who possesses

owner of a home sometime, but
