who take contracted views of this
matter; who think that unless they
are getting SO many square inches of
reading matter in their home papers
as they do in the city papers, they are
not getting the worth of their money.
1t reminds us of the man who took
the largest boots in the box because
the price was the same rs the pair
that fitted him. Take city paper il
YOU want one, but don't let it crowd
the local paper out Of your home.
The bouutiful harvests will make it
possible for our people TO be- more lib
eral i'm their fall expenditures than
they have been for several seasons
past. a great many are doubtless
! looking forward TO buying the organ
| that the children have wanted so
! long, or To getting new set of dishes,
or To- replacing the faded carpets and
| the worn furniture, or to brig enlng
up the house with q coat of pHiut, or
to getting new Outiis of clothing for
the entire, family. 10 ell su-I We
commend careful watching each
week of the advertising columns o,
the REGISTER. lola merchants are
bringing in splendid stocks O! goods
and their announcements III this pa
per will tell you whore you may find
what YOU want. And the men who
advertise are the mcI 20 de&i with.
You can always get better bargains
and better goods from the merchant
who advertises literally than y0u can
from the man who is merely leeCh
on the community and who depend
on his enterprising neighbnTs to spend
the money that is necessary 10 Keep
the town alive. The men who want
YOUR trade and VINO deserve il viii
ask for it through the columns of the
REGISTER this fail, and yOu Will find
that it will pay you To patronize
them.
The season is approaching when Old
debts are to be paid and now ones
NAV be contracted. Thanks To the
bountiful crops the people of Allen
county will doubtless pay more debts
by many thousand dollars than they
contract. Still there may be some
who will have to borrow money, or
who may not be able to pay of all
the old loan, aud to all such we de-
sire to suggest the ACCESSIBILITY of Sc
curing their money through the lola
Building and Loan Association. This
Association has been in existence now
for more Than ten years. and during
that time it has helped scores of men
to paw debts on such easy terms that
they hardly missed the money. If
YOU borrow a thousand dollars in the
old way you pay 4 thousand dollars
interest on it in the course Of ten
years, and you still owe thousand
dollars. But if you borrow it through
the Building and Loan Association at
the end of ten years by paying just a
little mo re than the interest each year
YOU have discharged tbs entire debt.
1t would he a splendid thing all the
loans in this county cOdld be carried
by this Association, for the interest
that annually drains away to the east
would then remain here and the prof
its would be divided among the bor-
rowers instead of going into the cof-
fers of the mortgage companies. Our
farmers seem to have got the idea
that they cannot get into this AssO-
citation but they can. Mr.. II. l..
Henderson is the secretary and will
be glad to give them any Informal
ton they may ask for. This is not an
advertisement but is written at our
own motion because we believe that
il is the duty of newspaper TO call
the attention of its readers TO . good
thing when il sees one.
