A Millionaire's Advice to Young Men.
A well known millionaire, with a national reputation lor conservatism, said in
conversation the other day : "If I were a young man anxious for Independence, I
would invest my savings in a small piece of good real estate. When I had It paid
for I would put the deed away and forget I had ft. Then i would begin paying
on anotner.
Doubtless every man h is felt at some time
That he wonld like to have a little pieoe of this earth of this great country that
he could call his own. This is a worthy sentiment, bat to select his piece of bind
in the heart of a -p ilous community where the mere pressure of population is
there to increase tti value of his holding, perhaps many fold this is sentiment
combined witn Dirtiness. i
It unquestionably strengthens a man's character to own property increases his
responsibility. If he can tie himself up, and is obliged to make regular-payments
be is sure to savo. 1 he trouble is he allows the chance to pass. He la 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
may be your nrsrstep to independence, rue imi w uu it v xhuyv. .
