Of ,a Neglected Coid

SEVERE BRONCHIAL TROUBLE.
Mr. W. T. Allen, Halifax, Na, writes:
"I feel that I would be doing you and
your ,great remedy,. Dr, Wood's Norway
Pine 'Syrup, a gross injustice if T did not
write and let you know the wonderful
results that I have obtained from its
use.
"Last spring I happened to contract a
cold. Of course, this is a common oc-
eurence, and I did not take any particu-
lar notice of it at the time. However, it
did not break up as quickly as colds
generally did with. me, so after two weeks,
and no sign of improvement, I began
to get alarmed, and went to my local
physician wino informed me that I had
contracted severe bronchial trouble as a.
result 'of neglecting my cold. He pre-
scribed some medicine for me, which I
took for about two weeks withoutany
sign of improvement- I was getting
pretty much discouraged by then, but
one day a friend happened to be in to
whom I was relating my trouble, and he
advised me to try Dr. Wood's Norway
Pine Syrup, saying that he had obtained
very beneficial results from its use in
a similar ease, I took his advice and
procured several bottles from my drug-
gist. After taking it, according to direc-
tions, for about two days, I noticed a
decided improvement, and. from that
day on I began to get better, and in ten
days I was in my usual health. I con-
sider this an excellent showing for your
remedy, and can highly recommend it to
anyone afflicted as I was. 1 shall always
put in a good word for it whenever the
opportunity offers itself."
You can procure Dr. Wood's Norway
Pine Syrup from any druggist or dealer.

On the 14th it was announced
that the German submarine U-29
had established a. record of eight

days later the Germans confiscated
a cargo of American oil on board
the Dutch ship Bryssel, in Swin-

U-28 took two Dutch grain ships
into Zeebrugge. The next day, the
23rd, German aeroplanes began at-

Bonds and Their Yell
Offer Splendid Opportunities to Both Investor and Speculator-.
Yield is High,
The outstanding feature of indus-
trial bonds is the high rate of in-
terest which they usually yield.
Taking all • classes of bonds . into
consideration, it is safe to say that.
no other form of bonded debt pays
to the money lender' se much in-
terest on the capital required. The
interest yield is usually muoli
higher than on ordinary real es-
tate mortgages, though often the
underlying bonds of a private cor-
poration are a lien on very valua-
ble regal estate. Industrials stand
at the • top of all other bonds in
point of high yield.
'They Are a Large Class.
Uncier the category "Industrial
bonds" is included the obligations
of all manufacturing and mercan-
tile companies of aprivate' c'harac-
'ter. These companies while nianu-
factuning or supplying articles of.
use to different members of the
community they serve, do not
usually supply necessaries like
these supplied by public service
corporations. Operations are ear-
ried on by virtue of a, government
chaater 'granted under ,soiree one of
the existing Joint Stock Company
Acts.
By reason of the fact that indus-
trial bonds are obligations of pri-
vate companies not supplying pub-
lic servicers, they cannot be re-
garded as having the same element
of permanence about them as the
more gilt-edged bonds dealt with in
previous articles. While many mer-
cantile pursuits, such as the mill-
ing and shipping industries, are
necessary to the life of the
nation, it cannot be inferred that
the debts of all private companies
engaged in such ,pursuits are al-
ways amply secured. For this rea-
son it is advisable for the prospec-
tine investor in industrials to in-
vestigate for himself the security
behind the bonds he contemplates
purchasing.
How They Are Secured.
The first consideration is the
value of the real estate, to be de-
termined not from the book cost of
the .property, but based upon an
independent appraisal is usually
given in the prospectus issued by
bond houses issuing the securities.
If the realty valuation exceeds the
value e the hoed issue, then the
safety of the principal can scarcely
be questioned. If not, then other
factors must be carefully consid-
ered.
The relation of current or liquid
assets to current liabilities is im-
portant. The former should great-
ly exceed the 'Matter, and leave
substantial net quick assets. In
factl where a careful investment is
being made, the net quick assets
alone should be sufficient to cover
the bonds,
The earnings of a company bulk
large in considering the safety of
an industrial bond. Whether the
gross is increasing or, decreasing
should be carefully noted. The net
earnings of a company should'be
sufficient to guarantee payment of
interest and all fixed charges as
well as providing a sinking fund. A
safe rule is for net earnings to be
about three times the bond inter-
est.
Management a Real Factor.
The management and control of
an industrial concern is also most
important^ The success of a pri-
vate enterprise is largely depen-
dent upon the men behind it; and
given sound and experienced man-
agement, the margin. of security be-
hind the bonds may be much less
than in a ease where there are less
capable managers and ample fixed
and liquid assets,
The big attraction of industrial
bonds is, of course, their high yield.
Six per cent. and more is to be had
on' a first-class security; and in the
case of reoemtily organized com-
panies an even higher yield oan be
obtained.
There Is a Good Market.
A big advantage, too, is the
comparative ease with which they
are cionvented into cash. Cana-
dian industrial bond listings are
numerous, and. there is an active
trading bond market at all the big
financial centre's of the 'world.
Bonds are purchased when a com-
pany is first organized, when they
can often. be picked up cheap
Stock bonuses have bean amongst
rile inducements offered investors
during the past few years. Some
industrial bonds are quite cheap
now, and will doubtless advance in
price within a, reasonable time. On
the other hand, there are many
standard issued which vary very
little in price from month to month,
and have all the advantages of
price stability together with a
moderately high yield. •
Speculative Features.
All industrial bonds are in a
sense speculative, inasmuch as they
depend largely on the success of
private enterprise for their own in-
crease in value or even their per-
manence of value. Because of this
they offer a better than usual op-
portunity to the astute buyer to
make a substantial profit on the
to rn.
There are many industrial bonds
of sterling quality; and others
which are intensely speculative in
character. This makes it impera-
tive that the services of a thorough-
ly reliable bond house be secured
when purchasing for investment
