waya and means of accomplishing tha
object. Those attending" the meeting)

- Is a very good way to save money, but yon will never grow-rc
on what your money will earn for you at 3 or 4 per annum. "
The same money invested in good residence lots in Omaha, would
in a very few years yield you several times the above rate.
Good lots can be purchased in almost any part of the city, with a
small cash payment down and the balance in small monthly amount3.n.
In a short time, you will have your lot paid for, together with the-; -increase
in value, which is sure to come on all well located property
in Omaha.
Omaha is today one of the most prosperous cities in the country;
bank clearings are climbing higher each week ; .wholesale and retail
business is growing faster than ever before in the history of the city.
The live stock and grain market is the envy of our competitors. New
skyscrapers are going up all around us. . ; -:tj ,
Can you watch these developments going on each day and que$e-V
