CAN YOU INVEST $10.00 A MONTH? DO YOU KNOW WHERE TO INVEST IT? WOULD YOU INVEST IP YOU KNEW? That's the Whole Situation in a Nutshell If you answer the first two questions in the affirmative, the second in the negative and the last one encourag ingly, it is pretty near a certainty that you are willing tolnvest in a first-class bond proposition on easy terms. It is seldom that the small buyer has an opportunity to buy railroad bonds on small payments. This is one of the .few. The principal difference between buying railroad bonds and railroad stock is that you have all the assets of the corporation behind the promise to pay 5 per cent per annum on the bonds, while the dividends from stock are uncertain. It is the difference between a long chance and a first-mortgage lien. That's some difference, isn't it? In other words, you get your money back when you buy good bonds, while stock, no matter how good the company may be, promises you nothing. Buying bonds is loaning money on good security, at a good rate of interest. The company takes all the chances you none. MORRIS BRQ.TtiERS, AN 181 RAILWAY S BOND The bonds of the OCEAN SHORE RAILWAY OM- , ; PANY are secured by assets valued at over $4,500,000. These assets consist of over $2,000,000 in terminal prop erty in the hearts of San Francisco and Santa Cruz; 80 - miles of the best right of way in the United States 34 1 miles of completed railroad, now in operation and; al- ' ready paying dividends; rolling equipment of every sort,. ; and franchises that are very valuable. Besides all this; your investment" will be in the bonds of a company that -; has the opportunity of becoming one of the wealthiest short-line railway companies in the United States. This is due to the wonderfully rich country through: which the line passes. It has never been tapped, by a trans ; , portation line. The bonds are $100, par value. You may purchase one or more at $92 cash or $96, payable $16 down for each bond and; $10 per month. These bonds bear 5 per cent interest, payable semi-annually. If purchased at $92, they net 5)4 per cent, and if bought at $96, they net 5.21 per cent-There is scarcely another ,. . ,tm. rtmin 4 Vint rlftpa'flS Well. f ' BA1C wuuvii. vri , . ,, ROOM 6 f,G0MMERO
