SERIES STOCK IN THE
COOPERATIVE TOWN COMPANY.
This series closes JULY without fail. Until then
you buy shares for s. down and sI25 in twenty
monthly installments.
NINE CONVINCING REASONS
Why Cooperative Town Company Stock is the best
investment on the Washington market today:
Because it promises large and its value is
based real estate actually owned by the company
Because every dollar invested previous to July will
be doubled in value by the completion of the Bristol
and Elza5ethton railroad
Because three hundred men now engaged build
ing bridges and laying rails complete this by
August 1.
Because the enterprise Is longer an experiment.
but a well-established and prosperous business.
Because careful and intelligent managernents guar
anteed by the Board of Directors.
because the properly OF the company Is located
the richest mineral timber and agricultural region Of
the south.
Because the company practically owns the entire
Wataues Valley and the available surrounding land
Because the company is today making money.
Because every lot sale. every rental contract and
deal of description is made in the interest
the stock. No outside issues. Stockholders stand
upon the ground floor. Stock is the point to which
every profit conyerges and upon which every dividend
turns.

SENTIMENT.

For sometime past all sentiment
has been disregarded. 1t has not
been the style to be sentimental, and
1t was quite the rage to pose as a
cold, calm beauty.
If young persons ever INDUCED In
little love thoughts, they buried them
down deep in their hearts, and de-
MED their presence. Well, its all
the rage to be sentimental once more,
and / am glad of it. I hate hypoc-
risy.
love to listen to the old fashioned
love stories, and to read the old
style love books, and you do, too,
and now since its the rage, Tess up,
is this not truep
l love to rake up the ashes of the
past; in fact, to hunt among the lives
of those that are gone, and to sift
out their love stories. admit that
love to hear all about them; to
search out these things from every
life-and we always find them.
never see a real confirmed bach
elor but know that down deep in
his heart there are some idle, silly
words, of rosy lips, that are treasured
there; or some little act, that has
been cruelty unkind, or some ruthless
hand of fate-and that's the reason
he is a bachelor.
If could hunt about for awhile
| am sure l could find a small pack
age of letters, tied with blue ribbon
and few faded flowers, or a soiled
glove, and l know there's a ruined
life, all on account of love. There
is not one of us but feels that life
has indeed grown burdensome, when
there's no love left
| love to know that there's heart
beating for me somewhere, and that
eyes sparkle when come, and you
know you feel this, too.
Now, since fashion has changed |
this, we will return once more to
good old-fashioned literature; we will |
sing songs of love and devotion like
"Barbary Allen" "My Love is Like
a Red, Red. Rose," and "Sweet Mar
jorie Vane," etc. We will sing
SCOTS verses and try to forget that
we ever were so silly as to say that
we did not believe in love, and that
we were so wicked as to forget the
many little tender scenes that we
have hid down in our hearts all
these years. We have been prob
ably a race of humbugs, but the
fashion now has declared we shall
be unmasked, and l am sure the
world will improve when we throw
aside all our hypocrisy and cast
about to find more pure, honest love.
