that at such an offer the Cosmopolitan $

have been willing to pay $7 for Grants

According to advance sheets OF Poor 8
Railway Manual, the capital nominally
or actually invested in railroads in the
United States, measured by the amount
Of share capital and funded and un'
funded debts, is $40, 2,G59,00O. This
Is nearly twice as much as was reported
1880. The mileage Of roads has reach :
ed l66,Sl7 miles, an increase Of 5,49S
tor the calendar year. The cost OF
roads is increasing. twas S5S, ,274 per
mile in 1889 and $59,696 in 1890. The
gross earnings amount to nearly ii per
cent. on the money INVESTED, but the
net earnings amounted to less than 81
per cent. The number of passengers
during the year was $50 ,439, ,0S2, and
they paid the companies 1913 GG4 ,43o,
or a little more than 81 cents each.
The larger earnings came from freight.
70l ,344, ,437 tons Of freight were moved
the rate being little more than dol
lar ton or $142,37l, ,S44. A Study of
the figures shows that very few business
es are carried on with smaller margin
between profit and loss than the rail
road business, and that, though large
profits NAV be earned on some roads,
the average net profit is less than the
lowest interest rate paid on bonds.

A loop of corset lace is so
much more natural and pleas
ant than a metal eyelet, it's
odd that the loop wasn't
thought Of first.
But that's the way with in
ventions; the awkward ones
come first.
1t was so with corset bones,
and with corsets themselves.
The best "bone" is Kabo
that never breaks or kinks.
Nobody uses "bones any
more.
And the corset for ease is
the Ball, with its coils OF fine
wire spring.
You can get the Ball corset
at almost any store in the
country, wear it two or three
weeks, and return it if not
satisfactory.
