The company is tniilding a railroad line 80 miles long. About $5,000,000 has al ready been spent. To com plete the line, it was found necessary to issue bonds to the amount of $5,000,000. All of the assets of the com pany, therefore, were mort gaged. This mortgage was placed in the custody of the Mercantile Trust Company, of San Francisco. The bond3 were then issued in denomi nations of $100 and $1000, bearing 5 per cent interest. This interest is payable, by law, on the first days of May and November. The mortgage on the assets -of the company guarantees the payment of the interest by the Mercantile Trust Com pany. Stockholders cannot receive dividends on their stock until the interest on the bonds has been paid. In order to make the interest good, the stockholders are liable to the full amount of the stock they own. Hence, the investor in OCEAN SHORE BONDS not only has the assets of the com pany for backing, but the men of millions in San Fran cisco who have already sub scribed for the capital stock of the company. It is sel dom that the small investor has the opportunity of buy ing railroad bonds. In this instance, he has that privi lege in the denomination of $100. If you buy at cash, you can secure them at $92. If you invest $92 in one of these bonds, you receive in terest on $100. This makes 514 per cent on the amount you really invest. Many people cannot buy for cash, and to them the opportunity in afforded to buy on terms. The price in this case is $96, payable $16 in cash and $10 per month. Upon the basis of this investment, you will receive 5 per cent on the par value, netting you 5.21 per cent on what you actually invest. These bonds run for 30 years, thus netting you, in the end, over 150 per cent and the ultimate return of all your money. The most conservative investor in San Francisco is the Fireman's Fund Insurance Company. If that company is satisfied with the safety of the in vestmentand it is no liv ing man or woman, with a few hundred dollars to in vest safely, can overlook this magnificent opportu nity.
