bonds, notes and certificates on the
lists of securities which they habitual-

Gates are to be issued continuously

be thoroughly acquainted with their
terms and advantages:''
Nature of Certificates.
The treasury savings certificates,
issued on the same basis as war saw
fngs stamps, whereby the purchaser
receives his interest in advance thru
an equivalent reduction in price, are
a short term security, maturing five
years from the first of January of the
year in which they are purchased.
They bear four per cent interest, COM
pounded quarterly, giving yield of
49, per cent to the man who holds
them during the entire period of their
life.
Perfectly secured by the entire re-
sources and the full taxing power of
the United States government the
certificates are 100 per cent safe. In
addition to this, the terms of issue are
such that the price increases monthly
and with it the value of certificates
previously sold. On January LIST of
the maturity year, the government
will redeem them at full face values.
1T is to the investors benefit to
recognize some of the unique and at
tractive features of the new treasury
