INVESTMENTS

1t is often as hard to keep money
safely as it is to get it in the first
place.
The best rule for an investor is
to consult those responsible people
who make a business of studying
the matter.
Go to your bank or to some es-
tablished bond house and follow
their advice. Don't listen to inter-
ested friends. Beware of people
that have sure thing.
The old rule is a good one, and
that is that the larger the returns
the more risky the investment. Do
not imperil the safety of your cap
ital just for the sake of one or two
per cent interest.
Americans are said TO sink one
billion dollars a year in bad in
vestments. This is simply because
they act on the advice of friends
instead of financial specialists.
In the words of a recent maya
zine, Americans who pride them
selves on being the most thorough
ly money-wise people on earth, are
annually putting a round billion
dollars into dubious financial
schemes practically all of which is
lost eventually"
We know how to make money
and probably are the best moneS
makers in the world but we DOM
know how to invest it and take
care of it.

MARRIAGS GAIN ON
DIVORCES In STATE
Per Cent Is Greater Than DivOr-
ces in 1928, Federal Report
Shows.

Washington.-A preliminary re-
port on marriages and divorces in
Montana in 1928 shows a greater
per cent increase in marriages than
in divorces. Cascade county has
more marriages and fewer divorces
in 1928 than in 1927.
Through the census bureau the
department of commerce announc-
es that there were 1874 marriages
in Montana during 1923, as COM
pared with 1856 in 1927, represent
ing an increase of 438 or S.296. In
1916 there were 8,10S marriages.
During 1928 there were 1876 d.
vorces as compared with 1916 in
1927, representing an increase of
go or 4.69o. In 1916 there were
1,484 divorces granted. There were
% marriages annulled in 1928 as
compared with 80 in 1927.
On the basis of the 1920 census
figures for population, the number
of marriages in Montana per 1000
of population was 1916 in 1923 as
against 9.8 per cent in 1927 and
the number of divorces per 1000
was 2.51 in 1923 as against 2.40 in
1927.
The number of marriages per-
formed and the number of divorces
and annullments granted were re-
ported by the clerk of the district
court of each county. The figures
for the counties in northeastern
Montana are:
