Fos TWENTY YkARs bond values
have been declining. In 1901.
Lake Shore 3lzs sold Mt ITO and
above. In 1920 these same bonds
sold below Co.. decline of al
most 50 per cent
AND YET there was more pryy-
erty value and moro earning
power back Of Lake Shore size
in 1920 than there was in 1900.
The change in the worlds price
for money during the twenty
year period was the entire cause
for this great change in tho
price of the bonds.
WHAT WILL BE the position Of
these bonds during the next
twenty years? Will they recover
to the early high figures, will they
decline still lower. or will they
hold the present value?
QUESTIONS OF THIS TIPE arc clearly
answered by our organization OF
investment experts. For twelve
years up to the year 1920 we fore
cast declining tendency in high
grade bonds of all types. We arc
now as confidently forecastins
their trend for the future years
EVERY INVESTOR who owns long
term bonds should be kept closely
in touch with tho trend Of tho
worlds money market. No in

One Dollar Saved Represents Ten
Dollars Earned

The average man does not save to
exceed ten per cent Of his earnings.
He must spend nine dollars in livinS
expenses for every dollar saved. That
being the case he can not be too care
full about unnecessary expenses. Very
often a few cents properly invested,
like buying seeds for his garden, will
save several dollars outlay later on.
1t is the same in buying Chamber

Reservoir Dams in Tunis.

Already the French are looking for ward to the rapid development of the province of Tuns in Africa. Accord Ing to civil engineer who has been Investigating the matter there are about 35 localities in that country where dams could be constructed, with reservoir capacities ranging from B. GOO, 900 to 4OO.OO0,OO0 cubic meters. and water power ranging from 30 to 5000 horse power of continuous energy. The engineering difficulties are stated to be small in comparison with those of dams already built in Europe and the United States, and the utilization of the water for irrigation. electrical power, and in one case canal nayiga- ton is estimated to furnish a good margin of profit. The numerous ruins of Roman dams found in TuniS show by what methods the country became "the granary of Rome" under the em- pine and the ruins of large cities, with coIlseums, bath and temples of great size standing in what are now barred plains, are evidence of the success of the organized methods of irrigation of those ancient times.

IRON FOUNDRY IN WAR AREA
How Women of France Are Doing Their Bit" to Keep the Wheels
 of Industry Moving.

An interesting narration of opera ton under unique and difficult condi- tions of an iron foundry In the war area Is given by the correspondent Of British paper writing from the firing line in France. He relates: One does not see much foundry work out here. but few weeks ago I was billeted in town near by. and actually saw cupola In full blast at once got per mission to have a look around, and was greatly surprised at what l saw. The foundry was a very primitive af- fair-just little jobbing shop-and was mostly run by French women and girls, superintended by few men. These women were making work up to three or four hundred pounds in weight. and in little side shop some half dozen women were making com ponent parts of machinery by the simple method of bedding-in. I after ward saw some of the finished work, and 1t would put to shame the work done by many of our so-called holders at home. The women work in ordi- nary dress, and work very clean and exact in both iron and brass, and also under shell fire and air raids. In the shop was a great hole where a Ger man had dropped bomb the night be fore, but the women still worked on.- Scientific American.

foungste- Was Trying to Escape Dog He Thought Was Mad, So There
 Was Abundant Reason.

Commander c. B. Fry, who has tenn norarily relinquished athleticism In or der to train boys for the navy de scribed to me the other day how he first came to discover his ability as a jumper.
 "When quite youngster," he said, T was one day strolling along close to our house, when there came bounding along the road in my direction an ex- ceedingly wicked-looking terrier l had recently become possessed of.
 "The animal was foaming at the mouth and showed other unmistakable signs of excitement and distress. Fly drophobia was rife in the district at the time. A horrid fear gripped me. Turning swiftly aside, I took the di1ch and hedge bordering the road in one wild leap landed safely in an or chard on the other side, and was up plum tree a few seconds later.
 "The dog, however, followed through a gap in the hedge and sat at the bot tom of the tree, but he brought toad in his mouth, and I perceived he was not mad beyond the degree of trying to eat the toad. So I came down, and went to have a look at the hedge had jumped over.
 Tt was much higher than my head, not to mention the ditch. It was many years before jumped as high again" -PearSOn's Weekly.
