The Science
Of Making Money.

A man who can make money in legitimate bus
mess enterprises in times like these. surely has
his methods reduced to a science, and yet strange
t. say millions of dollars lying IDLE at the
present moment awaiting Investments, and
soon as the feeling of confidence becomes more
manifest the wheels of our factories, the looms of
our mills aud the furnaces Of our foundries will
once more start in active operation. our country
the present time is not suffering from over pro
duction IN fact we are running as close 20 the
wind so to speak, as is possible, the clouds are
gradually lifting from our troubles and we are
beginning to see clear sailing ahead. We believe
are on the eve of a general revival of business
enterprises. which is always rehecte in the stock
market. the securities dealt in the ex-
changes are bound to reap the benefits of re-
vival of business which has for a long period re-
manned stagnalt.
Investments made in certain stocks at proper
times show large and sometimes enormous profits
from comparatively small beginning, provided
the purchase of the same is made understand
ingly and based on actual facts regards their
true worth. IL does not follow because stock is
low that II is cheap 1t may be dear at any
price, but II you can get the actual facts an
opinion can be formed and an investment made
that will prove very profitable in the end This
corporation presents to its patrons and cores
pondents plan OF cooperative investment in
stocks, getting before them from time to time in
a weekly market report the actual conditions of
various railroads we find existing and giving
our opinions as TO thevalue Of this or that stock,
whether selling too high too low, and if an in
vestment is made through us and by our advice,
CHARGING NOTHING IN THE WAY OF COM
MISSION FOR OUR SERVICES UNLESS THE
INVESTMENT PROVES A PROFITABLE ONE.
The officials of this corporation have had years
of experience in the stock business and believe
that a cooperative system of investment in
STOCKS, GRAIN AND COTTON EITHER FOR
CASH OR MARGIN is the only fair way that a
business of this kind be conducted, pinning
the success of our business TO the successful in
vestments of our patrons and correspondents.

The Republicans of Rutland nominated
p. w. Clement for mayor Saturday night
at a largely attended caucus. Mr.. Glenn
ent is president of the Rutland railroad
and the largest stakeholder of the Rutland
Herald. Earlier in the canvass Alderman
IL. f. Noyes was the only candidate, but
during the past week prominent citizens of
Rutland started a movement to take the
city government out of the hands of an al
legged ring, which was said to be running
the city in debt. Several days ago there
was good prospect of lively Republican
caucus, but the reform movement rapidly
took on large proportions, and Saturday S
meeting was the most harmonious political
gathering held here for years.

Money for StOckbridGe and Bethel
schools.

BY the terms of the will Of the late AL
bert Whitcomb, his estate, valued at some
100000, was left, after requests of about
$4,000 to friends and relatives, to public
purposes in the towns of Bethel and Stock
bridge. The first $4,000 was to be paid
to the town of Stockbridge to be held as a
school fund; the next $4,000 was to go to
the Whitcomb High school at Bethel, the
income only to be used for current ex-
penses, but the whole estate was to be held
intact during the life of his sister for her
support. Her death the present year has
made these requests now available.

Mrs Anna c. STOW ell OF South Weymouth
Mass, in acknowledging receipt of $1,000, for
value of policy on the life Of her husband, re-
Gently deceased, writes State Agent James T.
Phelps as follows: II wish TO acknowledge the
prompt settlement of the insurance under my
husbands policy Il,0Ol. and also to take this Op-
portunity Of expressing to the company my sin
cere appreciation Of the way in which have been
treated. That any of my friends may understand
why write IN this way / will outline the con.
dltion Of affairs. premium due on Mr.
Stowell's policy April 3d. 1896 This was not paid
and since his death we find that the company
sent second notice on May T. and third notice
stating that the insurance had apsed, but would
BE- reinstated If premium paid and health
certificate given. Later still a letter conveying
the same information was sent all these papers
having been in Mr.. Stowells possession. In a
pocket Of an office coat found check made
10y Mr.. Stowell for this premium and dated May
s. Mr.. Stowrll's accident occurred June 25. and
he died June -. By the terms of the policy |
should have been entitled to 5000 but am CRATE
full that the company, while recognizing that
there Is no legal claim for more than this amount
have still seen fit to pay the face Of the policy
5000 The generosity OF the National Life in
paying the acevalue of the policy under the
above circumstances is but in keeping with its
general policy. Women should be sufficiently
alive TO their own interests To that their hus-
bands pay the premiums their policies when
they fall due, as companies are not obliged to pay
the face value of policies unless all arrears have
been paid. Mrs. Stowes words of appreciation
are non too strong for the kind and generous
treat ment accorded her by the National Life.
