the comparative values of Sc
curities will readily admit the
high standing of real estate
mortgages, especially when
these are placed by men exper-
fenced in this line of loans.

that truly secures, because there
is something tangible to show
for the money invested.
We place your savings in just
this form of security and we can
not repeat too often the need of
having for your savings the Alb
solute Security thus guaranteed.
You cannot afford to take
ANY risk in connection with
your savings.
You cannot very we'll put your
money directly into first NOR

other advantages that would be
absent if you tried to invest di-
rect.

In France, as the result OF the sudden
discovery that more than six hundred
lepers are living in that country, cir
culating among the Inhabitants. The
minister of the interior appealed to a
special commission Of the French
Academy of Medicine to advise tue
best means to prevent the spread OF
the disease, and among the various
measures recommended by the com
mission is one to make one of tue
islands off the coast of France into a
lepers' colony, thus isolating them
from the rest of the world. Not all OF
the 600 lepers now known to the al
thorities will be transferred to the
island, but a special commission will
sit on each case and decide whether
the leper shall go to the island or may
remain under treatment In the coun-
try.
