tition. Then again it's something
near at hand. We all know the ST.

have paid dividends on their First
Preferred stock for several years,

is in a strong financial position.
What will it pay you?

now.
But how can I, jim? I just told
you how Pm fixed.
You don't need to pay the whole
amount at once. Why don't you buy
two shares, it will cost you $4,000
and you can pay for it at the rate of
$4,000 per month. You will get 10
on all of your payments, and when
you get your stock certificates, div
idend check will be sent you on the
next dividend date. These dates are
April, July, October and January LIST.
The stock is First Preferred Stock,
isn't it?
Yes.
Just what does this mean? How
is it different from Common Stock?
Preferred Stock is ahead of Com
mon Stock. Dividends on Preferred
Stock must be paid before dividends
on Common Stock. In event the
Company dissolves, the Preferred
stockholders are paid before the
Common stockholders. In fact, Bill,
this is the best sort of stock for US to
buy,-while it never pays more than
10, on the other hand it never pays
less.
Suppose / need the money and
want to sell the stock?
The company has opened Secur-
tiles Department and by notifying
them of your intention they will sell
the stock for you.
Do you know of anybody who has
bought the stock?
Certainly, I saw list, on it were
people we both know, there were all
sorts of investors, Bankers, Laborers,
Clerks, Doctors, Merchants, Widows,
Farmers, Administrators, ETC., etc.

Be Careful What You
Wash Your Hair With

Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali, which is very
injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes
the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is Mulsified CO.
coanut oil shampoo, for this is pure and
entirely greaseless. It's very cheap and
beats anything else all to pieces. You
can get this at any drug store, and a
few ounces will last the whole family
for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in, about teaspoonful is all
that is required. 1t makes an abundance
of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thor
oughly, and rnses out easily. The hair
dries quickly and evenly. and is soft,
fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy, and
easy to handle. Besides, it loosens and
takes out every particle Of dust, dirt and
dandruH.
