OPPORTUNITY
A Stock That will Pay a Divi-
dend on Its Capital the First

An Invetment SAFER and More
Profitable Than Bank or X. x.
Stock.

We know of a stock that guarantees
TO pay a dividend on its capital the
first year Of doing business.
II is an opportunity well worth the
attention of every man and woman hav-
ing $40 or more to invest. This is not
a talisman to create a fortune over
night, nor is IL a financial scheme des-
tined to end in air IL is a sound bust
ness proposition endorsed by bankers
The stock offered for sale is in a
financial organization founded upon the
safest business principles. The organ
izers of the Company have been in
business for so years and are endorsed
by bankers and others as men of hon
esty, reliability and experience in their
line.
To those desiring further informa-
ton in regard to this Company book
has been published, giving a history
of its organization and showing the
great and profitable field 1t will oc-
cupy
that has and is paying enormous divi-
dends. 1t contains most complete facts
and figures relating to this particular
business and the astonishing dividends
paid stockholders. 1t shows how you
may become a stakeholder and receive
your share of the profits of this great
business. The stock of old-established
companies in this line is worth three
to eight times par value, and original
investors are receiving from 10 to 100
per cent. dividends.
This is the opportunity of lifetime
to make a safe and profitable invest
ment, and worth the attention and in
vestigation of every conservative in
weston.

BIC FARM
Unusual Case in Circuit Court as
Result Of Uncertainties Years
Ago. Adverse Possession.

Judgment of adverse possession for
over twenty years was the decision in
the case of Bert Hyland and others VS..
Elmer Thurston and others. In 1871
Samuel Thurston came from New York
to Loganville, purchased 120 acres from
DIR. Hulburt's mother and had the deed
placed in his fathers name, then resi-
dent of New York. Later the son was
in sore need of help and his father
came from New York and placed a
mortgage on the place. The father af-
forwards died and although the admin
istrator came from the east and looked
over the property the farm was not
considered as part of the estate.
There was no question but that Samuel
Thurston had paid the taxes fer over
twenty years and there was no dispute
but that he had purchased the place
with his own money, yet it was in his
fathers name for which reason he
could not give clear title when sold.
The action was to clear the title to the
land and this was the outcome of the
suit. 1t is said that the original owner
is now public charge in one of the
counties Of Wisconsin.
The farm was sold by Mr.. Thurston
to his daughter, Mrs. Myra Peterson,
who in turn disposed of the place to w.
f. Schroeder.
The witnesses were Myra Peterson,
John Williams, A. S. Brooks and Adam
Leischer. The property is located at
LoganYiile.

Aftermath of a Farm Sale
in the Western Part of
the County.
AN UNUSUAL INCIDENT
Case Has Attracted Much
Attention From Events
Around it.

J.P. Lewis, who formerly lived in the
western part of the county near Lime
Ridge, has paid fine of $3.50, and costs
ofabout $1O0, on the charge Of being a
false witness. The case was heard in
circuit court on Wednesday.
In the March term Of circuit court,
1912, there was a case entitled Frank
Sosinsky vs.. j. P. Lewis and others.
Mr.. Sosinsky az a real estate dealer at
Reedsburg had listed for sale a farm
owned by Mr.. Lewis The farm was
sold and Sosinsky demanded his com
mission but this Lewis refused to pay,
claiming the farm had not been sold by
the agent but by himself. Lewis pro
duced a letter in court which purported
to come from Sosinsky releasing the
sale of the farm.
When an action is begun in court
the plaintiff signs the original COM
plant which is filed and the copies for
the defendant and for other uses are
signed by the attorney or attorneys.
When MIR. Lewis received q copy he
supposed the signature at the bottom
was that of Mr.. Scsinsky when in re-
ality it was that of James H. Hill, one
of the attorneys for the real estate
agent. When the letter was pro-
duced in court the signature was called
to the attention of Mr.. Hill and he was
