OF THE
TIMES.

Some people with money had
rather let 1t lie idle, or they loan 1t at
a low rate, than to PAY SO CENTS
ON THE DOLLAR for Property, which
is proved by the immense amount OF
idle money that the banks-both North
and South-claim to hold. Whereas If
they would pick up the bargains lying
idle throughout the country, it would
not only pay them dividends In rents,
but handsome profits as well, besides
put life and value in property. / no
tice when parties sell they usually re-
invest somewhere else, which starts
the ball to rolling and benefits all par
ties interested. I persuaded friend to
buy a house and lot through me about
four years ago at $500. He has received
good dividends in rents, and I resold
it recently for $1,000. The same day
he bought another house and lot from
me at s1500. which I expect to sell
at a handsome profit. This latter
property rents for $3.50 per month
then there Is plenty Of room on the lot
for more dwellings. I have similar
bargains, more or less, throughout the
land, both city and country property,
that I can sell you If you will only Sc
lect it and say something. Or I will
buy anything that you want bought
that Is for sale. In my opinion, in
vestments with good judgment are far
superior to idle money. Tell me what
you wish to buy and what you are
willing to pay. 1t Is to my interest to
protect your confidence. do business
with descriptions and propositions.
Don't care to see property or people
but have great respect for those who
are game enough to say something and
stand over it. Let buyers do the look
ing and I will do the listening. I can
show you good investments, II you
desire them pointed out, which you can
leave with me to be re-sold. If I fail
to sell them for handsome profit,
don't charge a cent for last services
within three years. People take all
sorts Of chances in speculation In
stocks, paper, cotton, etc. Why not
take safer chances with me on the
earth-the foundation Of all? A client
had me to sell some property at S1,1OO
that was renting for So per month, and
re-invested $1,000 Of 1t, which is now
bringing s13 per month and in better
locality. consider this was $500 made.
where land brings about SO per acre
and a country where 1t brings 500 to
$500 per acre. The former Is hard to
sell at any price, while the latter goes
as soon as offered at market value. If
you visit the former you will find moth
ing much to eat except a little fried
meat. bread and coffee, while in the
latter you will get the best in the land.
Trading folks are what the country
needs. Who wants to own property
that is not worth anything? I have
plenty Of property more or less
throughout the State. Can sell one
horse farm. or plant colony Of 5000
acres. Then I have Factory Sites,
Marble and Granite Quarries, Stocks
Of Merchandise, Cotton Mill and Bank
Stocks. Can make you big money If
YOU let me. Questions alone are be-
low par at this shop. Build up your
town and country by trading in DIRT.
IF you trade in 1t, others will follow
suit. People are like sheep to large
extent They follow a leader. there
fore get in the lead. pick up the bar
gains. and leave them with me to re-
sell to the followers. Trading folks
talk quick. Don't expect the quail to
cone to- you roasted. Step out and do
something to help yourself and fellow
man.
