THAT BOND
MARKET IS GOOD
Public Service Corporations
Survived the Panic Very
Nicely.
POPULATION is INCREASING

Chicago, July 4-Public service cor
porations the country over have come
through the period of financial de
preston with excellent increases in
earnings in the larger cities under
good management, a fact that is es-
pecially interesting in view of the eff
feet of the depre ssion upon steam
railroad and industrial earnings. \
study of the condition of such corpor-
atoms has Just been completed by
the Harris Trust & Savings bank of
Chicago, and the conclusions arrived
at have been completed in pamphlet
form for general distribution. The
bank points out that certain classes

may not be able to stand the hard
trials of more unfortunate times"
On the other hand. no severer test of
the strength of public service corpor-
alton bonds than that to which they
have been subjected need be demand
ed. Following an estimate that, at the
average rate of population increase
for the last century, so per cent each
decade, the population of the United
States will be doubled before 1915.
and that this increase is distinctly ur-
ban, the conclusions are stated thus
The nature of the business of these
companies is such as to make their
earnings largely independent of fluc-
tuations in general business and in
dustrial conditions. From the stand
point of the conservative investor
looking for an investment of unuues-
toned safety, this is one of the strong
est features of the bonds of the quasi
public corporations. We know of no
other corporations which have stood
SO well the test of stability and endur-
ance." The comparisons of earnings

CHICAGO HAS Bic
COLONY OF GERMANS
Many Natives of the Father
land Reside in the Dis
triCt.
FOLLOW OLD CUSTOMS.

Chicago, July "A German colony
in size all but the three largest cities
in the Vaterland," now forms part of
Chicago. According to figures re-
Gently compiled this community has
been growing SO rapidly during the
past few years that there are now
more persons of German birth or par
entage in Chicago than in any city in
Germany ithself, with the exception
of Berlin, Hamburg, and Munich. The
only other city which approaches
these figures is Leipsig, with a popula-
ton of nearly half a million. The Ger
man-Amercans in Chicago are OF
course scattered throughout the city.
but the center of the community has
been found in a special district on the
North Side. This German speaking
province lies in the region bounded by
Division and Clark streets and the
river, and here the curious visitor may
any day hear the language and see the
customs of old ''Deutschland,' not to
mention smelling the doors of every
i favorite German dish from sauer kraut
to wienerwurst. AS if the busting,
roaring city were a thousand miles
away instead of all about them, the
citizens of this community live their
lives of peace and content, and seldom
if ever, do they venture far from their
place of satisfaction. One old white
capped man, with his typical mustache
has not left the sanctitude of the col
ony but once. and that was when the
lure of the Worlds Columbian Expo
sition drew him across the city to
the fair grounds in 1893. The houses
in this American German Utopia are
picturesque and above all comfortable.
homelike and foreign. The houses
are frame, set in narrow lots with tiny
gardens, containing old fashioned
flowers and big easy schairs with an
occasional hassock to assure of more

ingly, it is not claimed that Syrup of Figs

known value, but one OF many reasons
why it is the best of personal and family
laxatives is the fact that it cleanses,
sweetens and relieves the internal organs
on which it acts without any facilitating
after effects and without having to increase
the quantity from time to time.
