I in- vested s15.O00 of my own money in the securities of this Corporation and caused some of my closest relatives to also invest and having done so, do not have the slightest hestancy in recommending the stock of this Corporation to anyone.

The reports have varied respecting Enelands purpose although her send Ing of gold to the United States re- gently has tended to confirm the view that she intends to settle in full in october. Now Parliament is informed by the financial minister of Great Britain that the $500, 100000 repre- senting notes which France and Eng land owe to the United States will be liquidated in October and that. too without borrowing any money in the United States, The fact of itself is sufficient to justify cur own bankers in believing that notwithstanding some gloomy reports.

WHITE HOUSE LACKS
OFFICIAL ATMOSPHERE.
Things were rather quiet with
our President last week. There
were no luncheons or tea parties of
any special Importance at the White
House, the greatest excitement be-
ing another drive for President and
Mrs. Wilson in a victoria instead Of
the big limousine. Prof. Axson re-
mains the guest OF his distinguished
brother-in-law and his wife. I sup
pose, though the President has
largely recovered from his illness, 1t
is not thought that he will see ft
to reopen partially the White House
during the remainder OF his term
but'it is generally supposed that the
next President, whoever he may
be. will return to the practices of
other days
The enforced seclusion OF Presi-
dent Wilson because of his illness,
coming on the heels of the restric-
tions so necessary during the war,
has made the White House rather a
deserted place instead of the cen

ly was; one OF the show places Of
