When tempted to put the results o f your savings,
which represents days, weeks, or even years o f
labor, into some questionable enterprise, remem
ber this:
It is better to get four per cent, regularly with
the principal always yours, than to get perhaps
seven per cent, this year and probably no princi
ple for the rest o f the time.
Four per cent, and Safe is the Safe Course to fol-
Uow—unless you prefer speculation and the
chances involved.
