BUY HIGH CLASS BONDS.
The Safety First Idea In the Invest
ment of Money.

The bond buyer never fails. The
speculator often does. The reason is
that the bond buyer is an investor
and the speculator a gambler. This IS
not to say that money is not made III
speculation, for the records prove to
the contrary.
No country in the world offers bet
ter or safer opportunities for invest
ment in we'll secured, first class negoti-
able bonds always commanding
ready market-than the United States.
Bond sales aggregating vast amounts
occur daily on the Stock Exchange i'll
railway, industrial and public utility
obligations of the highest class. Lead
in. bankers and financial institutions
are daily dealing in bonds equally
high class and gilt edged that are not
listed on the exchange. These include
farm mort cages, public utilities, III
! dustrial and railroad obligations.
The great life insurance companies
and savings banks and trustees OF
estates are all heavy purchasers of
securities of this character, for they
are not permitted TO engage Ill speeu
lation and are in most instances limit
ed very strictly to investments of the
safest type.
The enormous transactions in these
securities have given to bankers ant
brokers of the highest rank an estao
lished business and large clientele
and it is to the interest of dealers II
such securities to sell no other bona
than those which are dependable.
Bonds of this character in most III
stances give better yield than can b
had from the savings banks witt
equal stability. And when these Sc
curities ere recommended to the ii
: yestor by banks and bankers OF III
questioned integrity nothing better ca
be found for the person who seek
safety first.-Leslie's Weekly.
