There are sixty tribes in the Philip

Fidelity Savings

| The Fidelity Savings association keeps
moving. This association seeks bust
ness and has long ago abandoned the
old system of waiting for business tc
come to it. Very many people have
found out that this is the broad road t.
success and the Fidelity is among the
number which early learned the lesson
From its stock, owned and controlled
in all portions of this commonwealth
there is a monthly accumulation and in
stead OF boarding this big amount OF
money it seeks channels OF Investment;
it endeavors to find home builders and
in word this is the function of those
who are associated with the business in
terests of the Fidelity, finding home
builders.
Since the arrival of Mr. E. N. Carter,
the special agent Of the company, in this
city only few weeks ago, the agents of
the company Messrs. Delsplain & Cros-
by have placed very considerable sum
Of money.
This was not done through people
seeking the agents, because it is said
there are other savings and building
associations in the city, but because
these people had their lines out fgura-
lively speaking, to seek those who in
tended to build homes, and they found
them.
There are few if any bitches connected
with money loaning in the Fidelity asso-
siation. No long bearded, solemn faced
individuals, with deep sepulchral voices
listen to your proposition to borrow
or take stock and then with austerity
tell you That the application will be
weighed with solemn deliberation. But
sunny faced men of business, who do not
strain at gnat and swallow camel
await your applications for money and
pass thereon in business like way and
do not make you feel that they are con
ferring an everlasting favor upon you by
securing you money upon which to
build home, for which they expect to
receive their pay from you. With them
it is entirely business proposition and
the business is done according to the
best fo,ms of business.
If you are looking for loan or for an
investment, get the money from the FL
deity or purchase from them stock in
one of the best associations in this com

LWCOLN'S BIRTHDAY

1t is customary on each recur-
ring anniversary of the birthday of
a great man to pay tribute to his
memory by fitting ceremonies. The
month of February gave birth both
to the nations father and to its
savior, and it is significant of the
reverence in which their memories
are held that their birthdays are oc>
casions of only less celebrity than
the birthday of the republic itself.
Today the national colors will float
above every public building in the
land in honor of the great emanci
pator, and CEREMONIES will be held
in every hamlet from the Atlantic
to the Pacific.
