CASH SYSTEM
Saturday was one of the busiest
days I have experienced since I start
ed in business in Loup City, nearly
five yrears ago. I have changed my
method of doing business, having gone
on the cash basis. We were surprised
how many new people took advan
tage of the low prices and several
made the remark that they could not
see how I could sell merchandise at
such reduced prices. Remember, I am
here to serve the people, to lower the
prices and get the business. I will
defy any store doing a credit business
to sell goods at anywhere near the
prices I am selling them for. Instead
of having several thousand dollars on
my books from year to year, I can
use this money and buy merchandise
at rock bottom prices. I have no in
terest to pay on borrowed money, dis
count all my bills, pay cash, lose no
accounts. Why can I not sell you mer
chandise for a small per cent?
Come to us with your cash and we
will show you how you can save
money.

The Omaha Bee has discovered the
meanest man on earth. His wife
needed a set of teeth and had no
money to buy them. An Omaha
dentist -was going to give her a set
for a Christmas present but her hus
band arose in his might and refused
to alow her to accept them. Says
Ole Buck: Some one ought to pull
all of that fellow’s teeth and then
make him live on rubber boot heels
for the balance of his life.”
J. A. Mawhinney, who for many

October of last year, and has since
had them on feed and they are doing
nicely. He has lost but three head,
so far, and he believes that he will
clean up a tidy profit on the opera
tion. He expects to ship out the
tops the latter part of this month,
and the balance will go in February
or the first of March.—Ravenna News.
In “Hearts Adrift” Mary Pickford is
seen in a distinctly new role.that of a
little Spanish girl, a castaway, who
leads a primitive life on a desolate
island, where fate later sends another
castaway, for whose happiness the
little half savage creature sacrifices
her life. The pathos of this drama of
the shifting sands of time and the
surging, changing tides of life is
tenderly softened by Miss Pickford’s
charming and delicate portrayal. Miss
Pickford attains a high dramatic
power in this production, and strikes
a strong note of uplift in the supreme
sacrifice which is the climax of Nina’s
devotion to her lover. In four reels,
at the opera house, Saturday, January
15, Price 10 and 15 cents.

We Can Make You a Farm
Loan on the Amortization
or Rural Credit Plan
On this loan the total payment will be $9.07 for each
$100 borrowed, payable annually. If these payments
are made for 20 years the loan will be fully paid off and
released. Payments can be made in advance of matur
ity or the entire loan paid off any time the borrower de
sires to do so. Twenty-year loans relieve you of com
missions and expense incident to renewals of five-year
loans.
In 1893 the company offering this loan
made a $300 loan for 10 years at 6 per cent and
this loan was renewed for another 10-years
period at the same rate. A statement of this
loan is as follows:
Principal loaned .$300.00
6 per cent interest for 20 years. 300.00
$660.00
Under the amortization or rural credit
plan annual payments on $300.00
loan would be $27.50, or a total for 20
years of.$554.00
Difference saved by borrower.$116.00
If you contemplate making a farm loan, come in
and let us explain this plan to you.
