GOLCONDA STOCK AND THE CONSERVATIVE INVESTOR (IOLCONDA Stock has been and is the stock of tho conservative investor. Its tremendous improvements, its original known value and the fact that it will declare a dividend iu April, are proofs enough of its intrinsic value. Nowhere in the world of investments is stock backed by more tangible worth than it Is in the (iolcouda mine. Tills stock Is COLLATERAL; it is secured by enough gold ore to pay dividends for a genoratlou, and a milling and hoisting plant well able to turn the latent wealth Into motalio gold. As tlscal agent I have never hesitated iu publicly expressing my utmost confidence iu tho future of this great mine. I have always considered that tho work accomp lished by Messrs. English and Son was merely preliminary. I consider their de velopments mere scratchiugs that proved the value of this property. Their work made a fortune for thorn, hut the real values are now being uncovered and tho enlarged plant will iucrcaso tho production of this initio where it will pay dividends com mousurato with Its mineral wealth. Stockholders buying stock prior to the declaration of dividends will receive their proportionate share of tho earnings. THIS IS STOCK IN A PRODUCING MINE THAT IS READY TO PAY DIVIDENDS Investors who recognize a valuable security should procuro stock NOW. Tho Golcouda has been brought up to an industrial period and is in tho same ranks an are the larger and more prosperous manufacturing enterprises of tho country.
