A New System of Banking by Mail 



A unique system of Banking by mail has been in- 

 stituted by The Putnam Trust Co. of Greenwich. 

 Conn., intended to afford a simple and safe method 

 by which people living at a distarce can carry on 

 interest accounts through the mails. The first and 

 subsequent deposits can be sent by check or a 

 money order with the depositor's signature and ad- 

 dress. The company sends a certificate which looks 

 a good deal like a coupon bond. A number of small 

 coupons are attached, and when the depositor wish- 

 es to withdraw, he can do so by simply filling out a 

 coupon, and mail certificate, with the coupon at- 

 tached, to the company. These certificates are non- 

 negotiable and cannot be used except by the person 

 who has the account. In return, a check is sent by 

 The Putnam Trust drawn on the Guaranty Trust 

 Company of New York, which can be cashed in any 

 place where there is a bank. Deposits and with- 

 drawals are noted on the certificates, showing the 

 exact balance. For depositors in foreign countries 

 a bill of exchange is sent payable in the currency 

 of the country. The company pays the usual four 

 per cent, interest and its operations are safeguarded 

 by the laws of the State of Connecticut.

An Efficient Florist. 



Nature lovers in Stamford are con- 

 gratulating themselves upon the estab- 

 lishment of an ideal floral establish- 

 ment in the Davenport hotel building: 

 under the management of Mr. Charles 

 Isselee. 



It requires skill and art to conduct 

 a store selling plants, shrubs, seeds and 

 flowers, but it appears that Mr. Isselee 

 possesses this skill and art and also is 

 personally very agreeable. The happy 

 combination of good location, cordial 

 personality and well equipped store has 

 at once put him in the forefront of the 

 floral ranks in this vicinity. It has not 

 been necessary to begin low down and 

 to ascend slowly. His merit has been 

 immediately appreciated and he is 

 probably doing the largest business 

 ever done by a florist in Stamford. 

 Among his customers he has many 

 representatives of different interests 

 and occupations, including the man- 

 agers of the largest estates in this vicin- 

 ity. The public needs only a short time 

 in which to recognize merit. Mr. Isse- 

 lee has not only taken the lead but he 

 is going to hold it. His advent was 

 timely.
