would invest my savings in a small piece of good real estate. When I had It paid
for I would put the detd away and forget I had It Then I would begin paying
on anotner. - f -
Doubtless every man lias felt at some time that he would like to be a land holder.
That he would like to have a little piece of this earth of this great country that
he could call his own. This is a worthy sentiment, but to select his pieos of land
in the heart of a piu!ous community where the mere pressure of population is
there to increase the value of his holding, perhaps many fold this is sentiment
combined with business. V.
It unquestionably strengthens a man's chatacter to own property Increases his
responsibility. If he can tie himself up, and is obliged to make regular payments
he is sure to save. - 'I he trouble is he allows the chanoe to pass. He is going 'to
begin next month. Rich men talk of the importance of a man's, first Thousand
Dollars. Why not his first Hundred or his first Tenf The saving of your first 910
