LIE Creusot owes its Importance in

of this region were discovered in the
thirteenth century, but it was not I'M
til five hundred years later, in IVA,
that the first iron works were estab-
lished. Sixty years later the Schnei-
ders, Adolphe and Eugene, established
their first workshops here, and the lit

was a town of 1000 people; just before

nearly half of whom were employed in
the armorplate factories, the gun
shops, the locomotive works and the
ordnance plants. 1t was one of the
Schneiders, incidentally, who revolu-

over the promised rate of income on
the securities which he selects. This,
of course, does not apply to the flnan-
cial and investment institutions which
make a thorough and scientific inves-
tigation of all securities in which the
working funds of such institutions are
placed An examination of the sales
lists of the cheaper grade of high divi-
dend securities shows that in proper
ton to the number of such securities
which ultimately and permanently
make good" a far greater percentage
prove disappointing and are utterly
worthless as income producers. Yet
the fact remains that there is still a
surprising amount of guilibility in the
makeup of the average American. and
securities which offer an annual in
come of from 80 to 90 per cent of their
people who ought to know better.
The United States government. in its
campaign against mail frauds. has
given wide publicity to the many va
annual toll from the frugal savings of
the unfortunate class who are only too
willing to part with their money In
return for beautifully engraved GER
tificate which is not worth the price Of
the gilt around its border. 1t is safe
to say. however. that the shadow of
this class of speculation is growing
less. and that greater degree of in
telligence IN the selection of invest
ments is being displayed by many peo-
pie who heretofore have been guided by
no particular principle in this impor-
tant matter.
Emphasizes Value.
1t is noteworthy that notwithstand-
ing the prevailing low rates for money
during the past two years, the earn
ings of the banking institutions have
been such as to permit the payment
of many special dividends, and in many
Instances of a permanent increase of
the regular disbursements to stock
holders. This fact has emphasized the
value Of bank stocks as popular in
vestments. and investment bankers
predict that during the coming months
the demand for bank stocks will be
greater than at any previous period.
Should the indicated hardening of
the money market and the raising of
loaning rates prove to be an actual
and permanent feature, the earnings
of the banks would be proportionately
larger, and the desirability of bank
stocks as investments greatly en-
