Property is steadily advancing in price as it is more and more being apprecia- ted as a city of homes.

WAGES have been advanced 25c, - a ton at the Birmingham, Aia., rnl
 ling mills, wherefore Republicans say, this is an expression of conf dence in the wisdom of the next ad- ministration which they assume will be Republican. says the Tucso's Star. Confidence Is no doubt a great thing if it is not carried to ex. cess. We believe the business in terests of this, 0r any other coun-- try, have never made an extraordi-- nary use of it. therefore we must decline to believe that business men arc banking on what Republican administration not now in exist. ence, and not likely to be in exist ence, will do two years hence. The tins Is too distant, and the chances roo remote for such stretch of confidence. Business men are af- fected only by surrounding and i'm. mediate conditions-all provided by sa Democratic administration are highly favorable, and are grow. Ing day by day more favorable, There Is reasonable assurance that e change for the worse will not oc- cur within the next two years al least, and the business men and manufacturers of the country are making hay while the sun shines." !"

Of all the insidious Temptations invidious Contriyed by the devil for pdlling men down,
 There is none more delusive, Seductive, abusive, Than the snare to man with his wife out of town.
 He feels such delightfulness, Stay-out-all-nightfulness, Sure-to-get-tIghtfulne Town it with pain A bachelor rakiShness, What-will-you-takishness, None can explain. His wife may be beautiful, Tender and dutifuI, 'Tis not that her absence Would cause him delight; But the cursed opportunity Baleful immunity, Scatters his scruples as day scatters ght.

The Little Armchair.

Nobody sits in the little arm chair; It stands in corner dim; But 6 wliite-haired mother gazing there, And yearningly thinking of him. Sees through the dust of the long ago The bloom of her boys sweet face, As he rocks so merrily to and fro, With a laugh that cheers the place. Sometimes he holds book in his hand, Sometimes his little school slate; And the lesson is hard tn understand, And the figures hard 10 mate; But she sees the nod of his fathers head So proud of the little son, And she hears the words so often said, ''No fear for our little one." They were wonderful days. the dear,
 sweet days,
 When child with sunny hair Was hers to scold, to kiss and to praise, At her knee in the little chair. She lost him back in the busy years, When the great world caught the man, And he strode away past hopes and fears, To his place in the battles van. But now and then in wistful dream, Like picture ont of date, She sees head with golden gleam Bent over a pencil and slate: And she lives again the happy day. The day of her young life's spring, When the small ar4nchair stood just in
 the way, The centre of everything.

A SAFE IND SUaE Investment # Carried to Ma
 turity. Read the Following Statement of
 Facts

1 To d person desiring a safe and
 sure investment and one that will
 pay handsomely of carried to ma turity, nothing better than stock i'll the Columbia Building and Loan Association could be recommended The monthly payments beingsmall, the drain upon the purse IS hardly felt. and at the same time under its system his savings are placed Tn a common fund, where the poor mans dollar is made to earn proportions atelv as much as the rich mans lthousands. In order, however, to ireap the benefit of the profits earn ed by the Columbia, 1t is absolute lv essential that the stock be carried to maturity.
 This Is the key note tu make the investment a paying one, and unless absolutely compelled to withdraw by dire necessity, a member should strain every point to carry his stock to maturity. IL is a mistaken ld-a on the part of many to subscribe to stock with a view of remaining in the association six or twelve months and then withdrawing with the ex- pectation of desiring the benefit of the profits earned by the associa- ton on such withdrawn stock.
 A member, upon subscribing to stock, enters into contract with the association to mature his stock. or in other words, pays him almost two dollars for every one paid m about so many months, and as an evidence of said contract a certifi- cate of stock is issued |" him. Now. as the fulfilIment of such contract requires monthly pay ments cover ing period of so many months to be made by the member before tEe association Is able to mature his stock, it is not reasonable to ex- pect, when the contract Is broken and the member asks for the with drawal of his stock, that the asso- citation will pay him any portion oi the profits prorated to his shares while they remain in force.
 A person signing an application for stock should do sO with the full knowledge that he is entering into q business propositiOn- an greement on the part of the association to mature his stock in sO many months provided he meets all payments and dues to the association promptly until such time as his stock shall have matured.
 The plan offered by the Columbia Building and Loan Association eD Traces all the best know features in the world for savings and invest ments, and if you are looking for a safe and sure investment an unpre- judiced investigation will satisfy you.
 We will gladly furnish full infor nation as to plan and working of the Association on application. or will send same by mall to any ad- dress.
