 Parties who desire an investment which is certainly safe, and which they can buy now at price far below its intrinsic value, should take notice that an advance of one per cent. in both classes of Bear Valley IT. rigation company stock took effect August 15, making the price for the 8 per cent. preferred stock Ia perpetual sper cent se- curity) $104 per share, and for the com mon stock, paying 10 per cent. s106. Had you bought before that date you would have saved dollar share. If you do not buy before the next advance on September 15 you will lose the benefit of the advance, as well as of the high rate of dividend.

The common stock will be advanced to s110-there is no equally good eastern stock that can be bought for less than $20O.
 Buying now, you will realize the rapid advance in value, in addition to the high rate of dividends. The most careful and exhaustive examination of this investment is invited. If you want large return for your money, where the principal is abso- lutely safe and the dividends certain, you will inquire for full particulars of KIEBERLY, RooT 6 DAY.
