Profits of Stockholders in Mail
Order Houses Stagger the
Imagination.
CUSTOMERS SUPPLY CAPITAL
One Man Makes More Than S25o,oo
on $4,000 Investment in Nine
Years-Hundreds Linz
Him,
(Copyright.)

There is one way to make money by
dealing with the mail-order houses but
it isn't by buying goods from them.
The man who thinks he is making
money by buying his goods from mail
order houses has only to read of the
amazing profits made by some of these
big corporations to realize that all the
money is being made by the man on
the other end of the deal.
The stakeholder in a big mail-order
concern tolls not and neither does he
spin, but he piles up his money so fast
that it makes the ordinary mans head
swim to read about it. Here is the
experience of the stakeholder in one
of the large mail-order concerns, as
told by a reliable financial journal. 1t
gives a glimpse into the inside work
ings of the mail-order business that
should be of interest to those who
have made such things possible.
How the Game Works.
In 1908 this man bought 600 shares
OF stock in the mail-order corporation
around $40 a share, the 600 shares
costing him a little less than $4,000.
In 1911 the company declared a stock
dividend of SO 1-3 per cent. In other
words the company after paying cash
dividends regularly, had accumulated
surplus profit of one-third of the
amount of capital invested in the
business; but instead of distributing
this profit among the stockholders the
company kept the money in the bust !
ness and issued stock for that amount |
TO the stockholders. BY this action |
200 more shares of stock were issued
to the man who had originally bought |
600, increasing his holdings to 500 /
shares, without his having put any
more money into the business.
Another stock dividend of so per
cent was declared in 1915 and this
added 400 shares more to his holdings,
giving him 1900 shares in all. A third
stock dividend of % per cent was paid
early in 1917, bringing this mans
stock holdings up to 1,500 shares, still
Without his having paid in any more

money. On this 1900 shares of stock,
cash dividends of IS a share are now
, being paid. This investor therefore
is now receiving $4,000 a year from
his original investment of about $685.
100, and as the stock is now worth
around S16O a share, the present mar
ket value of his stock is $4,000, Civ
ing him a profit of $4,000. in addi-
ton to cash dividends which he re-
ceived during nine years, amounting
to many more thousands of dollars.
Only One of Hundreds.
This is the story of just one small
stakeholder in one maiI-Order concern.
A profit of more than $4,000 made
by one small stakeholder in nine years
on an investment of less than $4,000!
1t reads like fiction but it is financial
history. There are hundreds of other
stockholders in this and other mail
order corporations, some of whom
have made millions while this man
made thousands. Add the profits of
all these stockholders together and the
result is q sum that staggers the imag.
ination.
Small wonder that the men who OwD

can live in palaces, ride in the highest.

vate yachts and buy 100000 paint,
ings. But who has furnished the
money to pay for the palaces and the
automobiles and the yachts and the
100000 paintings? The people in the
country and the small towns who have
kept an endless stream of money flow.
ing into the Golfers of the mail-order
houses have made all this possible.
Their millions of dollars have gone to
the big cities to build up these great
concerns. Their millions of dollars
have provided the automobiles and
yachts and other luXuries for the
stockholders in these corporations

These men who have piled up such

ness have not even had to pay for
much of the stock from which they are
now drawing princely dividends. Tbs
people in the country and the small
towns, generous souls, have bought il
for them. This is shown in the case
of the stakeholder just mentioned, who
originally invested. The generous
mail-order buyers have made him
present of $4,000 worth of stock and
he has not had to turn his hand over
to get it. He has never even had to
so much as write a letter to get it.
The generous mail-order buyers have
handed it to him on a golden platter
There's money in the mail-order
business without doubt, but its on
the side of the man who does the sell.
ing and not the one who does the
buying. If you must do business with
the mail-order house, buy some of its
stock and let the fellow in the next
town buy you automobiles and private
yachts while he struggles with the
hard times that come from draining
his town of the cash that goes to keep
you in luxury.

TO PUT LOAN ACROSS.

Bridgeport's quota of the Great CT Italy Dollar Loan'' is $50.0O0 and the Italian bankers of the city met last night at the rooms of the Savoy A. A. and decided to do what they could to put the loan across in this city.
 ''For the reconstruction of het financial and economic life, Italy needs raw materials such as cotton, steel brass and above all, coal. These articles must be bought in the United States and paid for with American dollars in order to allow the Italian workingman a living" So declared Italian Consular Agent M. De Cicco of New Haven, who was here last night to preside at the meeting.
 The certificates are known as royal treasury five year, 1-2 per cent gold bonds and are payable, princi- pal and interest, in the United States in gold coin, or in Italy at the fixed rate of seven lire per dollar.
