Baby Bonds.

TIE NEW YORK HERALD has received
several inquiries from readers Of limited
means who wish to take advantage of
the present investment opportunities for
q list of sound bonds obtainable In 500
denomination. Realizing the needs of
the small investor, many large corpora
tions have issued 500 bonds which arc
listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
OF course one objection advanced
against purchasing 500 bonds is that
they are not marketable as easily as
are bonds of larger denominations and,
when bought or sold, their prices are
not as advantageous. but as the small
investor usually buys his bonds to keep
that factor Is not of great Importance
