THE Plan OF the Washington Library
Company of PbilzdeIphia, for the en-
dowment OF the Riverside Institute for
soldiers and Sailors Orphans, is one
that has been laid out in strict accord
ance with the terms Of the charter rs
granted for this purpose by the Legs
lature OF Pennsylvania. This. charter
Of the Washington Library Company
legalizes the very acts that It's mem
bers are now performing for this noble
obiec, The plan, as most OF our read
ers are aware, consists In selling stock
at Al per share. each share or shares
being accompanied by handsome fine
s,eel-pIate engraving worth fifty per
/ cent more than is actually paid for the
stock. Besides this, every share of
stock secures one present in the great
distribution of presents to shareholders.
or these presents the aggregate value 10
$500, 600, one of them being worth the
enormous sum OF $4,000, another $50, :
900, another 81, 600, and one more worth
IS 900, and two worth s., 500 each, sew
eral worth 81 900 each, and so on. This
is simply the plan in brief as adopted
md presented TO the public. Every
shareholder will obtain some present
in the great distribution, besides the
beautiful engraving at the time OF puE-
chase, and each one has an equal chance
of getting small fortune.
