Six and one.-half Percent First Mortgage Gold Bonds Bonds on Evanston income property are becoming more and more the preference of experienced investors. And this company, too, is constantly gaining favor as the logical place to buy them. This statement is founded on a steadily increasing volume of sales. And there are definite reasons for the increase. First, the bonds we offer embody every desirable quality of a good investment. The interest rate is satisfactorily generous. Six and one-half per cent se_curities, with returns reinvested, serve to build a stable estate in a surprising} y short time. Then too, there is no element of speculation in the values of the property securing our issues. The buildings are erected where they fill a definite need. Where maximum tenancy is assured by good environment, transportation and convenient facilities of every nature. And finally, the issues are made by a house 30 years old in Real Estate experience on the North Shore.
