MAKING INVESTMENTS.
Safety of Principal Is We.* Essential
Than Big Returns.
First, bere is a quotation from a
thrift preacher:
"Many fortunes have been made and
many more will be made through ;wise
investments. Many fortunes are lost,
too, through unwise investzaents. But
thrifty habits and consulting with ex-
perienced persons like conservatava
blinkers will give one the wisdom nee,.
essary to handle money wisely."
Second, I set down a quohtion from
the advertisement of a wise and con-
servative investment banker:
"In lending or Investing money all
possible care should be taken to guard
against hasty or impulsive decision.
Every endeavor should be made to ase
semble such reliable information as
will permit of the exercise of Intelli-
gent judgment. The man who assumes
this attitude toward all investraen1
propositions comes to have an increas-
ing regard for the element of conserva-
tism, and is ordinarily the first man to
seek the co-operation of investment ex-
perts."
Conservatism In Investment means,
first of all, keeping the principal sum
safe. What profits it to get 7 or 8
per cent a year on your money for
three or four years if at the end of
that time misfortune of any sort over.
takes the company you invested in to
Ouch an extent that you would find
what you have paid $100 for is worth
only $752 And when you leave the
road of conservatism in putting your
money out to work this is exactly the
experience you are likely to have.
Better keep your money in the say*
Ings bank, where it will earn about 4
per cent and where, if you wish, inter*
est will be compounded, until you are
positively certain of the soundness of
the investment advice you receive.
:,6.ddIng to the saved sum in a savings
b It, too, is a mighty good way to
sten the thrift habit upon yourself.
'Moose as your first adviser in invest-
ment some one who has selected in-
vestments for the savings bank. From
him learn what the elements of sound
investment are. Go nlowl--Jobn

COLD FEET
1 —A- NE of the most miserable things that iii.e Can -
V adians are troubled with.is Cold Feet and at
the same time one of the easiest things to avoid
r.1
We have heard Some of the most peculiar
arguments regarding the wearing of Felt Shoes—niake
the feet tender some people say and if you wear them
once Or rather for one season you have to wear them
always in cold weather etc., etc.
The very same argument hold S good with every
kind of winter or cold weather clothing. For instance
you should not wear an overcoat in 'winter, or warm
underwear or any other kind of cold weather clothing,
it is best to stand and shiver around the fire all day
for if you get in the habit you will always have to
wear warm clothing, .
The fact of the matter is that we Canadians are
compelled to wear warmer clothing in Winter than in
Summer and it is just as necessary as is cool clothing
in Summer, andwarm Footwear is just as necessary as
warm underwear or a fur overcoat,
The theory that warm or Felt Footwear make the
feet tender is not true and can be proved by the writer
of this ad. who has worn warm footwear (felt) every
winter for 20 years or even more and who has neither
a corn or a bunion or tender feet.
We are showing in our south window an entirely
new, nice and comfortable range of
COLD WEATHER FOOTWEAR
for men, women and children and right now a the be-
ginning of the season of cold weather is the right time
to buy them.
Do not Put Off till To -morrow What You Can Do To -day
Have the full benefit of Warm Footwear and you
will enjoy life better even when the War news is bad or
no more than favorable.
Take a look in our south window at the warm
Cold Weather Footwear. •
