Furniture and home remodeled at the
same time!
Can you imagine taking the very
Oldest piece of furniture and convert
ing it into the most modern piece that
milady could wish for? OF course,
this seems absurd, but it is being done
day after day at Ruiz Brothers, ITO
Epson street.
Ordinarily while the old home is be-
ing repaired the furniture is piled up
in q heap in as few rooms as viii
possibly hold it, and switched about
while these last rooms are being work
ed over, or perhaps the whole lot is
sent to storage for the time being.
Then, when the repairs arc completed,
it is brought bac kand sits in shabby
embarrassment in the shiny new set
ting that the house affords. Possibly
it will be sold or traded off. a piece
at a time, until the whole lot shall
have been replaced with new furni-
ture, which is a costly process.
Ruiz Brothers, experts in furniture
finishing, refinishing, repairing and the
like, have solved the problem for many
families. At this time there is in
Ruiz Brothers shop the furniture from
three complete homes that are now in
process of complete remodeling. While
the houses are being made over into
modern structures. the old furniture is
being completely done over.
Everything from the grand piano TO
the kitchen cabinet, all the old scars
and bruises taken out, new finishes
replacing the cracked surfaces and new
upholstering smartly finishing the old
pieces where faded material offended

Even the styles Of individual pieces
are changed. The high head and foot

replaced by the lower lines Of present
day designs. The dressers and bureaus

INSURE TITLE.
Everyone is familiar with life in
surance and with fire insurance and
the like. We know that in case of
death or fire, the insurer pays some
money to someone. And title. insur-
ance is quite the same. Title insur-
ance is an agreement whereby the in
surer for a valuable consideru ton
agrees to indemnify the assured in a
specific amount against loss through
defects of title to real estate, wherein
the latter had an interest either as
purchaser or otherwise. e.
1T is general opinion that bad
titles should not be insured. On the
other hand, titles which are defective
of record but which defects in fact
constitute no. real source of danger OF
loss of title, should be insured.
LOCAL CONCERN. /" -,
''The public should learn the safety
and facility of the title insurance.
The abstracter and the bar should
learn that title insurance is but an ad-
ditional tool in the proper and pro-.

; Fire insurance, life insurance and
the like have been in existence for
many years, but few people are ia
miliar with insuring titles on property.
What is title insurance? Or better,
what is its commercial Importance?
This question or any others that
should arise pertaining to title insur
ance can be answered satisfactorily BY

ty Company.
In explaining title insurance and
its value Frost Woodruff of the Alamo

quotes the following from a recent ad-
dress delivered by Clarence Milheiser,
attorney of Houston, Texas.
SAFEGUARD WEALTH.
"As the basic wealth, stability and
security Of a nation rests primarily
upon 5 land and land values it is a
concomitant fact that transactions con-
nected with and affecting real estate
should be safeguarded properly.
Everyone is familiar with the abstract
and attorneys opinion system of hand
ling these transactions.
From an examination of these abb
stracts the attorneys give their opin-
ions as to the condition of titles. As
several eye-witnesses to the same acct
dent are very likely to give varying
versions of incidents pertaining there
to, so it is that several attorneys quite
frequently have varying opinions
based on the same abstract as to the
condition of the title to the same piece
of property. This is said without the
least intention to reflect upon any at

MARBLES

Metropolitan newspapers in their
usual avid search for the unusual,
have precipitated a veritable holo-
caust of marble playing upon an un-
prepared and unsuspecting public.
They have suddenly discovered that
marble playing has great virtues as a
pastime for boys and they are going
to encourage it. Trips to Milwaukee
to Atlantic City, New York, Wash

ward of champion marble players. AS
these papers express it, playing mar

STORE CREDIT COSTS 2e PER
CENT.

In a survey Of 800 farms made by
the North Carolina Experiment Sta
ton, it was found that over 40 per
cent Of the total credit needs for the
farmer is for short term loans, either
through the bank or through merchant
advances. Only one-sixth OF this
amount comes from banks and the
rest from stores or landlords. For
store credit farmers are paying over
rs per cent interest, and only little
better than half of the farmers real
lied this fact. The bank rate OF I'M
terest at the same time was only a
trife above per cent Practically
all merchants would be delighted 60
go over to cash basis. 4
The remedy lies in the production
Of more food and feed and in the dis
continuance Of shipping n hay and
grain with their attendant high freight
rates and dealers profits. This means
the establishment of better working
relations between bankers and farm
ers, for there is great opportunity for
educating the farmer along the line of
bank credit. Banker Farmer.

FORCING LOWER TAKES

Gerard B. Winston, Undsrsecretary
Of the Treasury in the American
Bankers Association Journal says
"The burden Of taxes must be light
ened. Per capita Federal taxes rose
from 432 In 1918 to s54 in 1890: then
commenced to drop, and have been
successfully 345. $50, &2s, $40 In the
last four fiscal years. 1t is estimated
that for the next fiscal year the fig.
ure will be about $27. With the
states and municipalities the opposite
tendency Is disclosed. In 1918 their
per capita tax was something over
$40. In the next four years it rose
to 92T. $50. $50. &3S, and later figures
will undoubtedly show further In.
creases."
He says of excessive death taxes
that examples have been cited Of
how the states and Federal govern
ment, under existing laws, can take
more than 100 per cent OF an estate.
II Federal aud state governments
take more than the particular 3ource
az taxation can stand, 1t will ulxi
nately destroy all revenue from that
source. After man has provided
for the reasonable requirements Of
living, the impetus to further produc-

The full significance OF this is real
lied only when we visualize savings
deposits as meaning much more than
merely dollars in the banks. They
really mean an increase in the accu-
INFLATED productive capital of the
country, since money deposited in the
banks as savings is promptly applied
by the bankers in the purchase of Sc.
curities by which plant, railroad and
other industrial development Is made
possible. These figures mean, there
fore, that the small savings of many
millions of people, instead of being
frtttered away in the purchase of
goods that are Immediately consumed,
which involves destruction of CAPT
tai, are gathered together and applied
in the better utilization of capital
through the upbuilding of industrial
equipment. This means the preserva-
tion and perpetuatfon of the country's
physical wealth and Its application to
the production of further wealth more
easily and in larger volume, resulting
in higher standard Of living for all
classes in the country.
These tremendous savings figures
indicate sound habits of thought and
practice on the part of millions Of
people in their personal economic az
fairs. This is an asset of no small
value In aDpraisfng our present bust
ness outlook. It Is, in fact. one of the
most promising elements in the stu
ation today. 1t means that we not
oBly have the resources for prosper.
ity. but also enough common sense to
make good use of them.

The 46 breeds and 120 varieties Of
