It seems have made quite a hit with the investing pubh¥ who realize that practically all of the better clas:% Wyoming issues are enjoying a material increase in value. It enables our clients on our plan to ca three times the amount of stock that they would} be able to hold under ordinary conditions and therefore make three times the profit with the same amount of capital. OUR PLAN On amounts of $1,000 or over we will buy stock and sell it to you on payment of one-third of the total value of the stock. We hold the stock in escrow as security and charge you 8 per cent interest on the two-thirds loaned by«us. You have the privilege of selling this st at any time you choose and by paying your addi- tional two-thirds the stock may be delivered to you or your order on a moment’s notice. Should the stock decrease in value 10 per cent we call on you put up this additional 10 per cent margin, keeping one-third of the market value of the stock on deposit with us as security at all times. Should the stock again go up to its original purchase price you may withdraw the additional margin you have put up, leaving only the original one- third deposit. For out-of-town clients we require ban reference as to their standing and transaction will be handled through their local banker, wh will guarantee same to us. We are advising the purchase of KINNEY ELKHORN, WESTERN EXPLORATION UNIVERSAL EXPLORATION, E. T. WIL- LIAMS, PATHFINDER and others.
