Will Take $4,000 from Banks

ouestion--I have $4,000 in savings
banks and would like to invest same in
listed ted pref, preferred stocks or bo;sis TO yield
am man 90 years old and expect to be
competicu to retire In about three years.
ana this is all have to depend on for In
come ! have some Liberty bonds-T. II.
Answer-Long term bonds are now
selling at prices to yield less than
short term bonds, but have this ad-
vantage, that they do not require a
rrelnvcstment of the money within a
few years. 1t would seem to us safer
to put your money into three or
four high grade investment bonds
rather than into one issue. For
instance, one good railroad bond.
Union Pacifc-Central Pacific 4s, due
19a9, selling at 70; one good industrial
bond; say the United States Steel sink
ing fund per cent bonds, due 1861; !;
one good public utility bond, such as
the Bell Telephone Of Pennsylvania rs,
due 1916. and one good foreign gov
ernment bond, such as the Dominion
OF Canada 5s, make a good we'll d.
versihed investment.

The Days Bond Mark e
The Tribune prints each day the ma

The Tribune prints each day the mo
turity dates of all aetive bonds quoted
on the New York Stock Exchange. The
return on bond to the tnvestor depends
upon three factors: the rate Of interest
the security bears, the market price
and the distance of the maturity date.
To figure the precise yield on bond it
is necessary to use yield tables, but the
approximate yield CON roughly be figured
out By the jolloauiasg formula: Divide
the closing quotation on bond anto
the rate of interest it pays, and the re-
suit will be the annual return. II the
bond is selling belo0 par you must
aI,osv clso for the appreciation Of the
principal TO do this subtract the mar
ket quotation from par, or 100, and di-
vide the remainder BY the number of
gears the bond has to rum before ma
turity. For erample, If q s per cent
bond is setting at 80 and has ten gears
to run, the annual return wiu be 6.G6
per cent. The difference betweem par
amd the market price aciII be 10 points,
s1sbtructin0 90 from 100. Dividing ten
points By ten gears. the quotiemt a0iu be
l.. This figure is to be added to 6.66,
shich is the annual return, and the re-
sult 7.66 per cent. Dilt give you the ap-
prorimute yield.

Railroads Have
Touched Bottom
Cuyler Asserts
Recent Improvement Indi-
Gates Worst Has Been
Seen, at Least for the
Present, Executive Says

Declaring that within the last two
weeks there has been substantial
Improvement in traffic conditions, T.
De Witt Cuyler, chairman of the As
sociation Of Railway Executives, gave
1T as his opinion yesterday that the
railroads had seen the worst of their
troubles, ut least for the time being.
Mr.. Cuyler, who had just returned
from Chicago, where he had testified
before the Railroad Labor Board on
the question of continuing national
agreements, said the Labor Board
showed every disposition to give an
early decision.
Personally, feel that the railroads
have touched bottom" said the head
OF the association that represents more
than 30 per cent of the railroad mile
age of the country. "There has been
an Improvement within the last two
weeks in the movement of general
commodities, which indictes a better
ment in general business. I look for
this improvement to continue, but do
not anticipate any boom.
II have not been as pessimistic as
some of my associates who are closer
to the operating end Of the railroads,
and although | expect continued inn
provement | do not think it will be
great enough to wipe out the deficits
that were piled up in the first part
of the year,
Mr.. Cuyler stressed the point that
the railroads will be able to put into
effect many needed economies if they
are permitted to prescribe for their
workmen the same conditions that ap-
ply in other industries, where the
arrangements are not tied down by nasa
tional agreements.
The standing committee of the AS
sociation of Railway Executives will
meet at 81 Broadway tomorrow to hear
the report of the meeting held re-
Gently in Philadelphia with the heads
of the four railroad brotherho6ds. AL
though no official statement was made
public regarding the nature of that
discussion, it was assumed that it had
to do with wages and national boards
Of adjustment. Mr.. Cuyler announced
at the conclusion of that conference
that "progress had been made.n

a year as a public school teacher. A Brit
ish friend suggested Dunlap Rubber Com
pany (English} shares. What do you sug-
gest?

Woman Fears for Ship Stock

Question: have had some shares in the
united States Steamship Company for the
last two years. l have not received any
olvldenos. AS you can fro rnthe en-
closed letter, they are making an offer to
the stockholders. I would sike very much
II you would advise me what to do. also
II you think the stock will ever come to
anything. At least, might be able to get
half my money out Of it.-(Miss) S. A X.
Answer-We do not see why you
should exchange your United States
Steamship stock for United States Ship
stock at the ratio of five for four when
by selling the Steamship and buying
the Ship In the open market you can
get five for hve,- or close to it. Neither
company makes public financial state
ment, and we cannot tell YOU, there
fore, what hope you have of getting
your money back.
Trustees Bonds Yielding Over s
Question-Having $4,000 to invest tsl,6oo
bonds to purchase paying "a per cent or or
over ?-J. II. C.
Answer--As a trustee in New York
State you are limited to bonds that are
legal for savings banks, and 6h per
cent is rather difficult to get. The Della
ware River Railroad & Bridge first 4s,
due 1886, selling around 83, yield, if
held to maturity, $50 per cent. The
Louisville & Nashville, Cincinnati &
Lexington ~ per cent bonds are sell
ing around SO and yield between 6 and
sh per cent The Milwaukee, Lake
Shore G. Western, Michigan division,
first IS, due 1924, selling around 90,
yield about SIS per cent, and the
Minneapolis, Sault Ste. Marie g. At
lantic first 4s, due 1926, selling around
SS, yield little over 61a per cent.

Fears Loss in Safety Vault

Question-Wil you kindly tell me the
safest way of keeping Libety bonds
Would you suggest registering them
In the latter case. is the bank responsible
in case Of IRE or bur urglary? Will you ALSO
suggest some good savings bank with a
fair percentage of interest?-Mss d. X.
Answer - Registering a bond pre-
prime prineipal sS akd INIT interest, re- ' accordip@ to-
how it is registered, to any person ex-
cept the owner, but, it affects the sala-
bility of the bond adversely; that is,
they do not bring as much as coupon
bonds as a rule. In case of loss of
registered bond it requires a great deal
of. trouble and some expense to have

Held Pennsylvania Twelve Years

Question: own 100 shares of Pennsyl-
vania, which were bought over twelve
years ago and of course l have a severe
loss. but have been thinking 1t might be
we'll to switch into other stocks. I had in
mind Southern Pacific. Texas Company and
Westing house.-H. A. r.
Answer-Southern Pacific and West
inghouse, in our opinion, are both in
stronger position than Pennsylvania.
Texas Company stock is speculative,
aad we do not undertake to advise
about it. Your experience with Penn
sylvania shows that common stocks,
even the best of them, are too specula-
tive for permanent investment. We
suggest, if you switch, that you select
q good bond rather than a stock Then
twelve years from now you will not
find yourself in the same predicamcnt
as you are now in.

Is now selling for and what the par value
IL and what the dividends have been They
ace making a drive on what they term

Answer-Pretty booklets will not
earn dividends for you The things to
scrutinize about stock offering are
the balance sheet, statement Of earn
ings and capitalization and the pros
poets for market for the shares. II
the salesman cannot satisfy you on all
these points let him sell the stuff to
some one else. If you do not feel con-
fident of your ability to gauge the data

AND FEEL FRESH AS
A DAlSY-TRY THIS!
Saysy Glass of hot water with
phosphate before breakfast
washes out poisons.

To see the tinge OF healthy bloom
in your face, to see your skin get
clearer and clearer, to wake up with
out a headache, backache, coated
tongue or q nasty breath, in fact to
feel your best, day In and day out, just
try inside-bathing every morning for
one week.
Before breakfast each day, drink a
glass Of real hot water with teaspoon
full of limestone phosphate in it, as
harmless means of washing from the
stomach. liver, kidneys and bowels the
previous days indigestible waste,
sour bile and toxins; thus cleansing,
sweetening and purifying the entire
aIimentary canal before putting more
food into the stomach. The action OF
hot water and limestone phosphate on
an empty stomach Is wonderfully In
vigorating. It cleans out all the sour
lamentations, gases and acid1ty and
gives one splendid appetite for break
fast
A quarter pound of limestone phos-
phate will cost very little at the drug
store but is sufficient to demonstrate
that Just as soap and hot water
'cleanses, sweetens and freshens the
skin, so hot water and limestone phos-
'phate act on the blood and internal or
