FIFTY CENTS A WEEK BUYS LOT
A Beautiful Place for Building n
Home with No Outlay
Hardly.

Messrs. Grover & Layman announce to-
day the opening of their beautiful new
Belmont plat on FiftY-second street, a
short distance north of Krug's Park cor
ner. The location is one of the most de-
sirable in or about Omaha, being high and
slightly land, with a splendid outlook in
all directions. The nelghborhood is. one
of high class bones, occupied by a most
substantial class of citizens. The same
original terms which have enabled Grover
& Layman to sell six large plats in
Omaha the past few months entirely out
will be maintained at Belmont, payments
being only One Dollar down per lot, then 30
cents per week thereafter without interest,
taxes or extras, and with no payments
required in event of the buyers illness.
All the lots are 40x132 IT. each, fronting
broad so IT., graded streets, with Is IT.
alleys in the rear. The prices range from
$50 to $275, with a few lots slightly higher.
These lots are almost certain to increase
rapidly in value by reason OF the fact that
Ffty-second street is being paved directly
past Belmont with a 10 foot cement road
way without any expense whatever to the
lot purchasers. This will give an i'm
proved street all OF the way to the bust
ness center of Omaha. The lots in Bel
mont ADDITION are limited in number and
judging from the immense demand for
every plat placed on the market by Grover
& Layman, every lot in Belmont will be
sold in short order. The terms are so
easy and simple as to be within the reach
of everybody, and wage earners nave an
opportunity to get the start of a home by
buying on this plan, which is. most at
t%ractive. TO give all who are employed
during the week an opportunity to buy a
largely increased force of statesmen will
be on the addition all day today, Sunday,
and with pleasant weather a record break
ing crowd is anticipated. To reach Bel
mont take the Benson electric car line or
any car, line going west or north, and
transfer to Benson car line, get off at
Krug's Park corner. walk north on Fifty
second street six minutes and you are at
Belmont, which is plaiRly indicated by a
large sign which cannot be missed.
