We have at this time ten to fifteen thousand dollars worth of Frist Mortgage Real Estate Bonds in denominations of $100, $150, $250, $300, $400, $500, and $1,000. These bonds are amply secured by Real Estate and fully guaranteed by our Company, and will net you six per cent interest which we pay semi-annually. The investor who is content with less than six per cent interest is depriving himself of what is rightfully his own. C e n tr a l W. W. BROWN.
