1 Safe Investments for Women.
Among the safe forms of invest
i ment that are operi to women, vari
■ ous insurance companies are offering
j attractive investments in the form of
paid-up or 20 and 30-year endowment
policies. In these cases the face
amount of the policies is paid at the
date of maturity. The money may
then be banked or Invested safely to
provide for old age. I especially rec
ommend Insurance for the woman w ho
must, earn her own living and who
lias littie time for the study of the
investment market. Most endowment
policies, after the 'first three years,
have a loan or cash-surrender value,
in case the holder is uhable to con
tinue the payments or needs cash im
mediately.
It might be expedient for a woman
who has a limited capital and no
family to whom she wishes to be- 1
queath it to Invest a part or the whole
of it in an annuity. In this event, ;
at her dentil the principal reverts
to the annuity company, hut she has
secured during her lifetime a larger
return than she could in any other
way. For instance, a woman of about |
60 years of age could buy an annu
ity of $10,000 and enjoy the income
of approximately $1,000 against the ;
probable Income of $500 from on ordi- .
nary Investment.
For the woman who lias no earning
power and who depends upon the re
turn from her holdings to live, good
bonds are a safe Investment. Those
lacked by a city, state or government
are the safest. The lower the Inter
est rate on the bonds the safer the
Investment is the general rule. Bonds
are redeemable at definite dates, but
are negotiable at any time If listed
on the various stock exchanges of the -
country'. Bonds so listed are there*;
fore a wiser investment than those j
which are not listed, though these
are often just as sound and salable.
We must remember that bonds, if ;
they are underlying bonds, constitute j
a first mortgage on the physical prop- |
erty itself. In case of financial fail
ure. the tangible property—the real
estate, buildings or railroad equip
ment, as the case may be—become
the property of the bondholders and
can usually be sold to make tbe bonds
good—From the February Delineator. .

SPEND just a few minutes in our store any day this
week and you will get an entirely new idea about
shoes — an entirely new idea about foot comfort and
how it may be combined with style. We are holding
special demonstrations to show why the concealed,
built-in arch bridge holds up the foot exactly as Nature
planned; how it prevents the arch from sagging; how
it makes possible the raised heel without foot annoy
ance. These demonstrations will convince you that the

not get in ordinary shoes.

of Rare Distinction and Refinement
during our
OPENING
Monday and Tuesday,
March Twelfth and Thirteenth
PARIS has been virtually
brought to your door. She has
said her last say in regards to
what we shall wear this season.
Definitely now the mode stands re
vealed. New ideas in sleeves, hem
lines, drapes, silhouettes and trim
mings as decreed by Paris are to be
viewed in our extensive and exclu
sive assemblage of new apparel.
And its distinction is more than
skin deep. Any garment, how
ever inexpensive, can have
style, but only those of select
quality, of perfect workman
ship and finesse of finish can
retain it.
fFhe style leadership
of Herzbergs is
acknowledged by all
followers of fashion
It is characteristic
of Herzberjr apparel
that its distinction
be permanent. To '
its exterior smart
ness of appearance
is added interior
soundness of con
struction that makes
it the most economi
i al npparel Milady
can own.
We invite vour
inspection of these
beautiful spring

VV INTER'S freedom has .
f " flown—but in its'place is
newness and charm, refinement
and restraint. New wardrobes
are the order of the day. Winter
clothes must be discarded—but
who minds when such smart and
lovely new things are waiting to
reveal you to yourself — in a
revival of feminine grace and
beauty which has almost been
forgotten.

* a new set of rules that every
woman must follow—and this
