Now investments ¢ greatly in this respect. Roughly v may be divided into three general s, those that may be turned into cash on demund, those that by terms of the ement will be paid off at a_certain fixed date and final those which can be turned into mone only by selling the security to some other investor. The savings bank depositor stands Practically alone as far as the average small investor ncerned in being payable on demand. Money in the aavings bank may be drawn out at the phasure of the depositor, althoush at sole sacrifice of interest. In the secynd group come most real estate ages. Here the money is loaned definite term of years at the termination of which the lender is entitle§ to the return of his money. Bonds full into this classitication in so far as they have d maturity date but mahy of them run for <o long a.| time that the investor who wants his principal returned is often obliged to sell at_the market price. Finally all stocis, both preferred and common, are investments which to realize Upon it is necessar: pose of to some other i i3 a point which mu weighed before putting money stocks. Thy value back of the shares may be conatantly increasing, but it does not follow that the market price will advence correspondinsly; in fact very often just the opposite takes place. The consequence is that the investor who \wishes to turn his hold- ings into cash unexpectedly often has te take a loss on his principal. The same thing happens with bonds, but not quite so frequently. It can be stated as a general rule that other things being equal the more readily a security is salable no | zht ad-| | ware A Heavyweight Lines Expected | to Be Lower—Rayon Already Cheaper. | | BY J.
