Better Than q Savings Bank

LIS 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 it's deposit
tors. 1t has been truly said that
real estate is the basis of all
wealth, and he or she who possesses
it, be the quantity ever so small,
has something tangible on which
to rely in times of adversely, as it
always has a fixed value, which
cannot be said of perishable prop
erty.
The owner of a piece of real es-
tate is the owner of a
HOME,
or that out Of which he or she can
make a home at pleasure, and the
time is not far distant when the
owner of a home will be independ-
ent indeed, as we'll in this country
as it now is in foreign countries.
Every person expects to be the
owner Of a home sometime, but
the masses of the people let the
opportunity for securing a home
pass unheeded, and soon prices and
terms of payment are beyond their
reach, and the consequence is they
live and die without a home, as
poor when they leave the world as
when they entered it, never having
acquired a portion of the earth as
their own. when a little exercise of
good judgment at the opportune
time, and a small outlay, would
have secured to them a good home,
and the money which they spend
for rent during their lifetime
could be applied to the comforts
and enjoyment of life, or laid by
for a "rainy day"
They who arrive at the 'shady
side" of life
WITHOUT A HOME
are indeed to be pitied. Contrast
. the condition of the person who
owns his own home with the one
who rents. Which will you select:
!, You can have either condition; il
remains for you to decide. The
wisest and most prosperous people
. in this country are purchasing al
, the real estate their means viii
admit of, and are advising thei
friends to do likewise. A yer.
intelligent and wealthy old gen
tleman who resides in Illinois, AM
!. who has travelled extensively an
been very observing, wrote US
few days ago, and in his letter h
I said:
