SLOT SAVING MACHINES.

Slot machines as repositories for
savings have been found by Buda-
pest banking concern to be an excel
lent means of increasing the amount
of money handled by its savings de-
partment. The slot machines are
placed in the street, and the persons
placing money in them are auto
matically given receipt, which may
be exchanged against a bank book,
or kept until such time as the re-
ceiver is DESTROYS of Withdrawing the
deposit from the bank. The idea is
that people will deposit small
amounts, if relieved of the necessity
of going to the bank to do SO, and
also that the sight of the machines
will cause them to deposit coins
within instead of spending them.
The deposits of the bank have shown
q remarkable increase since the idea
was instituted.
