The New Rulers
To-day, while the German or Ita- lian Government consists of ten or dozen vigorous and alert men in the prime of life, a meeting of the British Cabinet brings together twenty grey-haired old gentlemen whose avarage age is 63..

CO-OPERATIVE DEVELOPMENT.
MALAGUNA MANSIONS,
LIMITED.
Think of the thousands of dollars you have paid away in rent over the last twelve years-and what have you to show for it?-NOTHING.-

If you have $3,000.00, in the bank, and are paying rent to a landlord, can you advance any reason why you should not become a joint owner in this great co-operative building scheme? The sound- est and safest investment for the small investor ever offered in the Colony.
If you are not in need of a flat yourself-sub- let at a profit and let your tenant pay off the instal ments for you.
MODERN IN EVERY DETAIL. Seven stories, eight, electric lifts, four to six rooms, two bathrooms, hot and cold running water-only $130,00 per month inclusive of all taxes and upkeep -and the position.
