THE BUILDING OF THE PYRAMID
All of the toil and effort that went into the building of those mammoth Pyramids which have weathered the storms of cen- turies and the hot Egyptian sun-all of this would not compare with the toil and effort used to build this pyramid of assets.
But there is a difference. The Egyptian Pyramids were builded by slaves as monuments to kings, builded by the driving toil of unwilling hands. The National Pyramid is builded by free men in the pursuit of health and happiness for their loved ones, builded by willing hands and unselfish hearts.

H
TRADE! You like
to patronize those concerns who are in business to stay.
It's human to expect that such busi- ness establishments always stand back of the wares they sell.
The advertising in this Directory is suggestive of the stability and per- manency of the advertisers.
Frauds, fakes, get-rich-quicks and other schemers have little use for directory advertising. It lives too long.
The modern City Directory is a business institution. It occupies a place peculiarly its own. It is ag necessary to the progress and de- velopment of a city generally as anything naturally would be which deals with such a fundamental as the citizens themselves ..
If you are not advertising your busi- ness in the Directory, may we ex- plain how and why it will pay you?
