AMERICA A SOUND INVESTMENT * Real Estate Insreases in Value When one buys real estate In this country, they are establishing the foundation of a fortune. It is contended Eighty-Three percent of American fortunes have been made from real property. With a nation growing as rapidly as this one, and enjoying the great advantages we possess, time takes care of the profit in a real estate investment. The following is Illustrative of what had been done in the past and will be done again in the future in real estate. Cost $5,000.. Now Worth Millions A house at Thirty-ninth Street and Fifth Avenue, New York city, posting, $5,000, to build, now is worth $3,000,000, by reason of the great increase in real estate values in that part of the city. But the property cannot be bought at any price so long as the three aged sisters, Ella, Georgia and Rebecca Wendel, who live in it, remain alive. Financiers, real estate agents And promoters have pleaded with them to sellout the sisters can't be budged.
