are no charges to be paid In advance,
and hopes that no one who needs a

take advantage of tho company's offer
because of any fear that the rates
might be too high. They have been
made so low that even the poorest
can easily afford to get a loan.

that is Just wiiat the public are most
anxious to avoid.
As for tho payments, each borrower
is permitted to say just when it would
be most convenient to pay. Most of
those who have taken out loans so far
have preferred to pay In small month
ly Instalments. Some pay by the week,
but In no case Is the borrower com
pelled to pay all nt once.
It will be noticed at once how much
better it Is to get a loan this way than
by pawning things. "With this plan
