How many people realize what accumulating five cents a day for twenty years means at 3 per cent, compounded twice a year.. .It will amount to $400.. Suppose a child’s father foregoes one cheap c gar a day; his grown-up son or daughter has a competence to start in life...A dollar put by a day—s7. a week—is a fortune in twenty years—s7,3oo.oo and the interest we pay you besides. Nobody accumulates in large amounts.. . Everybody can in small amounts. Com-., pound interest has made more millions than speculation.. Start your Baby today!.
