Facts About the w. L.
DOUGLAS Shoe Business.

An addition to the factory is now
being built, which will increase the
output from 7sOO pairs TO 10000 pairs
daily. and increase the volume Of
business to $1,000, 900 for the year 1908.
The manufacturing plant is right
up to date, equipped with every
modern device. About one-haf Of
the present factory has been built
and equipped with machinery the
past four years. A new power plant,
sufficiently large TO meet all demands
that may be made upon it for several
years. was installed two years ago.
The manufacturing plant. machinery,
and all the GA retail stores throughout
the country ore free from incur 3rance
Of any sort. and the company has
sufficient cash on hand to conduct a
business of s7,oCO,OOO annually with.
out borrowing money.
Practically all the stock Of the
w. L. Douglas Shoe Co. is owned by
me. am the president of the cor.
poration. The business has always
paid good profit, and is now paying
better than ever.
l believe that the best way TO per.
petuate the business Is TO let the
people own 1t and control it. have,
therefore, capitalized the business for
two million dollars, one million dol
lars of which is preferred stock and
one million dollars common stock.
The preferred stock which is offered
to the public At par, is non-cumulative
and preferred both as to dividends
and assets. Every dollars worth Of
stock offered the public in this sue.
ccseful business has more than dol
lar worth Of actual, tangible assets
behind 1t.
Dividends will be declared semi.
annually, payable on January and
July 1, and will be payable in funds
current in New York or Boston.
There is nothing whatever Of a
speculative nature about the purchase
Of this stock. 1t is an old esta blished
business. manufacturing staple
article of merchandise. The business
has been continuously successful for
more than quarter of n century, and
is more prosperous to-day than at my
period of its history. / retain half
interest in the business. Ny interest
in the business is represented by the
common stock, and ] cannot receive
one cent of dividend on my stock
until the full 70 dividend has been
paid on all the preferred stock.
The Douglas business is not subject
to fierce competition or affected by
panics. therefore this is better invest
ment than any other industrial stock.
This is the best opportunity ever
offered for the permanent investment
of large or small sums of money. The
is secure, and the 70 annual
dividend certain. have never known
Of anything better.
To my friends and patrons Of many
years l unhesitatingly recommend |
the purchase of this stock as q safe,
sound, conservative investment.
