Any man, woman or child who can live in this end of Florida with its tranquil beau- ty and wonderful opportunities and yearns for a sure place to invest his money, would not buy corner lots along the gold-paved streets of Jerusalem at ten cents a dozen without a written guarantee that he would make a profit. If you hold on to that dollar until the cagle screams from sheer squeezing, you will never get very far ahead in the game for first place. You have to take some chafice if anyone promises you a bargoin so good that there is no element of chance about it. Just call the police, he is trying to hand you some new form of the gxlded brick. { Of course you take a chance. You do it when you put your money in the bank, or in stocks or bonds, or under the mattress. Even life is a chance. But you take a thousald times less chance when you put your money into reasonable, well-located THE EVENING TELLEGRAM. LAK ELAND, FLA., JAN. DoYouWantaSURE THING?

The big advantage to the ordinary man is that lie can buy lots on easy payments, tunmng over two or three years time, and that while he is paying for them they are increasing in value all the time. Your profit is arising from your whole investment, although you have only made a small, cumulative investment. Get away from the old excuse.

CONLEY, Sales Manager Subtlety of Shou The question of footwear is ever a fascinating one; no one ever thinks of ordering a new pair of shoes with- out seriously considering the toilette they are to complete, and so engaging | is the appearance of the latest models that it is easy to conceive the possl bility of ordering a gown to match the shoes if necessary. The newest are the “cothurne” slip- pers. They in no way differ from the open shoes, except for two little 3 slides in each side, through which run soft silk ribbons that cross over 3 the instep and lace up to about the 6 & height of an ordinary boot. The co- thurne is delightfully comfortable, for it holds the slipper firmly, and, in ad- ; dition,- gives to any foot a graceful appearance.
