give a very pleasing effect.
Y
OU are probably figuring now on owning a home some day: most every renter does figure on the
proposition more or iess, because renting, besides being unsatisfactory and disagreeable, owing
to uncertainties and restrictions, is also very expensive, and the money paid out for rent is gone for
ever, so far as you are concerned. Make the start right now toward that home you have been fig-
ing on and planning, and dreaming about. Purchase a nice building lot in the beautiful residence addition

We will make you terms so easy that the payments can be handled out of an ordinary salary without any inconvenience to you.
