secretary's Report.

J. D. Ecker, secretary of both or
CARNATIONS. in his report, said:
The association for almost forty
years has been helping the citizens of
keokuk to build and own their homes.
and today this city is recognized
throughout the state as having more
homes owned by the citizens than any
other city of its size.
Since the organization of the asso,
citation almost two million dollars have
been loaned to its members to enable
them to own their homes free from
debt.
The monthly repayment plan has
made this possible, for with this plan,
every month the debt is decreased and
In an easy gradual way the loan is
paid off. Another ADVANTAGE the asso-
citation offers, is, that payments Of
$500 and multiples thereof may be
made at any time on the principal
thereby reducing the interest paid per
month and shortening the time for
the loan to mature. Every advantage
possible is offered to pay off the loan
and free the home from debt.
The investment stock of the associa
ton has many attractive features and
one desiring per cent monthly saw
ings account should investigate this
stock.

Fels-Naptha will take grease out of
clothes in cool or lukewarm water
1t loosens all kinds of grease quick as
wink, and takes out every trace of the spot.
That's why butchers, and painters,
and machinists clothing can be washed
better with Fes- Naptha than any otherway
It's easier, too; in summer or winter,
requires no boiling, hot water nor hard
rubbing, and makes better job of it.
Because Fels-Naptha dissolves grease
almost instantly, women who have tried it
prefer -Naptha to any other soap for
washing dishes.
There is no necessity for putting the
hands in hot water.
Puts fine polish on glass and china
1t is likewise superior in cleaning coats,
or rugs, or curtains, or anything else that
has become spotted or soiled.
In fact, you will find that anything
cleanable can be cleaned quicker and better
and easier with Fels-Naptha.
And for laundry purposes, Fels-Naptha
is a revelation to women who have always
washed in the old-fashioned, washboiler-
Misunderstanding way.
Directions for all purposes are printed
on the back Of the red and green wrapper
