London Prime Minister MacDon
ald's government Taeeday received
from the liberal party a virtual guar
antee of its continuance in office dur
ing the period of the national con
ference. At the suggestion of David
Lloyd George, liberal leader and for
mer premier, the liberal parliamen
tary party unanimously decided to ab
stain from voting on controversial
amendments to the government's coal
mines bill, on which the laborites al
ready have sustained cne defeat at
the hands of the combined liberals
and conservatives. This assured safety
for Mr . MacDonald during debate
over the amendments Thursday night,
for which several conservatives al
ready had proposed amendments like
ly to draw liberal support. The terms
of Mr. Lloyd George's speech em
bodied a further guarantee of safety
until the end of the conference. The
liberals, however, made plain that
the decision did not affect their lib
erty of action during later stages of
the bill.

Had Lain Helpless in Hay Four Days
and Five Nights; Found
by Chance.
Soaked to the skin with rain and
snow, suffering for lack of food and
water, Eli Collins, 65, farm-hand of
GGlenwood, la., was dug out of a
Glenwood, la., was dug out of a
of the Bluffs where he had lain for
four days and five nights and was
taken to Council Bluffs.
Collins, for all the lack or food and
exposure to freezing temperature,
took a little nourishment and was
in cheerful spirits soon after he was
rescued.
Until two weeks ago he had been
making his home with Ralph McFer
Ten of Glenwood. Without saying
much about it. he suddenly started
out on foot tb hunt work. Last Thurs
day night he had got as far as the
Harry Robertson farm, five miles
south of Treynor on the Silver creek
road.
By then a bruise on his left shin
had begun to bother him, and he was
all but exhausted, so he sought the
shelter of the haystack. The next
morning he was too weak to move or
to attract attention to his plight.
So he lay in the stack, a thin suit
and the hay his only protection
against the cold and dampness. He
gradually passed into a stupor, and
when found Tuesday he was scarcely
able to speak his name. - '
Had it not been1 that the owner
of the stack had found a purchaser
for the hay, Collins might have lain
there until he died. But Robertson
went out to show the hay to a buy
er, and discovered the man.
Dr. R. II. Stephens took Collins to
the hotel at Theynor, where he was
warmed and fed. He soon felt able
to travel and was taken to the coun
ty home near Glenwood.

There isn't a man or woman anywhere wh.se money is bringing in from 4 f to
5' hut who lias the ilesire to have it earn 6'J or y'A . provided it could he placed at this
higher rate where it would be equally as safe as on the lower earning basis.
There isn't anything mysterious about business. Many people think it mysterious
they think of it as complicated and difficult to understand: but the fact i:j. business, wheth
er it is big or little, is simply putting money to mork. and successful business is the art of
making this money earn an income greater than the cost of operation and the interest the
business man pays for the money. An interesting phase of business operation is that an in
creased volume of business of. say, 25, 50 ' or 100' over the usual volume will earn a
much larger percentage of income than can be clone on the regular volume. Take our
own case as an example:
Woods Brothers. Corporation can take on additional construction work from year to
-car lo the amount of several million dollars. To do this involves additional equipment
and working capital, which means cash outliy. but we make a much larger crcen?agc of
profit on this additional work. That is. the last million which we take on returns a much
greater proportionate profit than the first, second, third or fourth million. "We have to
provide more equipment, but it does not involve any more oil ice buildings or executives:
it doesn't materially increase the overhead.
That's why we offer to the public our preferred slock which pays j'r annual divid
ends. Its security as an investment rests in the earnings of the corporation and the accumu
lated assets. Qur assets now- exceed $11,000,000. During the past 19 years since our busi
ness was incorporated we have paid to our stockholders regular quarterly dividends. Four
years out of five wc have increased : our undivided profits; that is. earnings that we have
made above operating costs and interest charges. Today oXir undivided profits exceed a
million dollars. Occasionally in any business a year comes along that, through some tmfor
seen conditions, profits cannot be made. We have been in business 40 years and we know,
as every business man of long experience knows, that every year cannot le a profitable
year. Consequently we accumulate and leave in our treasury this surplus to tide us over
an occasional bad year. Our present surplus would tide us over a number of such years
and still allow us to pay dividends regularly to our stockholders.
With the cxpanion of our business we have an unuual opportunity to increase our
earnings. Vc,proviue the money lor the necessary outlay to liandic tins business tnrougu
the sale of our preferred stock. This will make
income than you can ordinarily get elsewhere,
write us.
a safe investment for you and a larger
