Harris, THE sa Ain STAR—TUBBDAY, pel 18, 1018, UST as the Scotchman said to the girl, “The Lord keep you, I canna afford to!""—so, this advertisement is going to show you how you can bid the landlord a fond farewell. And let somebody else keep him! Not that the landlords are so bad— they’re only human—and they've had a hard row to hoe for the past ten years. Very few have made more than two per cent net on their investments. And now they see a chance to break even— and maybe a little better—and they're try- ing to make hay while the sun shines. Don’t knock. They're Let ‘em alone. like Mark Twain's hotel keeper, who charged a dollar for a sandwich. “I know it ain’t worth it,” he admitted, “but, brother, I need the money!” HIS advertisement is intended to help those people who have some ambition, a lot of good taste, and whose souls have not been tarnished by contact with too much money! This is not theory—not merely “on paper’’—it works. I found out from folks who are actually doing it—twenty-four hours a day and three hundred and sixty- five days in the year. The Lord DOES help those who help themselves! Hear the people I talked to a week ago. A doctor’s wife told me this: “We had a fine home on acon hill, but ét scemed advantageous to sell it, and we did. We moved out here preference, not from necessity. It's quiet here and beautiful. We found that we couldn't afford to build, for the cost of building the house we planned was pro- hibitive. So we bought two garages and put them together. They cost one hundred and ten dollars set up. Really, they're very comfort- able. We have fine water and all the firewood can use for years. The Doctor saws it himself and he says he expects to add ten years to his life with the bucksaw! “We keeping is tares, assessments or from we it very much; it ia restful; house- simple and we're not worried about the price of coal. We found we were saving money without trying to save it. No, we woudn’t go back to Beacon hill, it's too fine out here.” I INTERVIEWED another citizen nearby, who was putting up a “camp.” It was noon time. His wife had driven out with the “flivver,” and the pair were picnicking under the shade of a big tree. “How do you like it as far as you've gone?” I asked. And he said: I'm putting up the camp myself and by the this month, “Fine! we will move in end of Troops on Hun Soil Avertiair ed te eattle property owners the urs shipworkers and been ast year wsized in homes emph that the me permanent di ot end with the term named as a Morgan MeL, lowing were ard, Frank ere who have toat in the right plac a, W.t org A. £ emmer, 1, M J Von Herberg, James A, Wood um T.

Well, I should say it was! “Why, our rent was raised from twenty-five to forty dollars a month, This beats paying forty a month, any way you figure it! I AM not going to suggest that you live in either a garage or a tent, though either is preferable to paying rent. This advertisement will show you just what you can do, and what we can do, to solve the rent problem. OVERLOOKING Puget Sound, with a superb view of the Olympic moun- tains, a good friend of mine has a hun- dred and forty big tracts for sale—not stuffy “forty-foot lots,” but wide acres— “room to breathe and grow.” All the firewood you want for years to come, without cost. i Electric lights, telephone, school, stores, and pure water. And the car line, which brings you to the h of Seattle’s industrial enterprises in less thirty minutes. Homesites with such views as these command from two tb five thousand dol- lars apiece in many parts of Seattle. Yet these tracts are to be sold at prices ranging from $175.00 to $650.00 apiece. And on terms so low that the family pocketbook will never miss the money. A few dollars—whatever may be con- venient. We'll give you a start.
