tj Before the day of Bonds—an undertaking requiring a large mortgage was
financed entirely by a Bank, an Insurance Company, or an institution, having
command of great sums of money. These institutions used the money paid them
in deposits, policies, etc., to finance the undertaking.
4JI Nowadays the mortgage is split into small denominations, called Bonds.
41 This gives the public—you—the opportunity to participate in an investment
backed by the greatest pbssihle security and paying excellent interest, often as
high as 6%.

For the permanent investor stability of
market price is a relatively unimport
ant item. It is, however, always discon-
certing to see one's investment selling at
a price below that paid for it, and so
stability is always a feature to bo de-
sired—if it can be got without sacrific-
ing some more important quality. As
a rule, public utility bonds are stable
for the simple reason that their earn-
ings are stable. Depressions in trade do
not cut into their profits as they do into
the profits of railways, or often indus-
trials. The narrow market for the public
utility securities, as a rule, tends to keep
the price steady, too.
To summarize, we have found that the
bonds as a class are safe, but they re-
quire to be carefully examined individu-
ally for several possible weaknesses.
Their yieldis better than municipals,
but lese than. iedustrisis. They are, gen-
