WEARE COMMISSION COMPAY, earnings of ihe Pennsylvania railroad. The rate at wnicti the rise in operating ex penses In this railroad system was seen to outstrip the gnlna In gross earnings served to enforce doubts caused by a similar tend ency which has become general throughout the railroad world. The Pennsylvania lines directly operated showed an Increase In gross earnings for November of 8691,5oo,.but expenses ln reaseil $l,3v(.M0, eo that net earnings decreased 8T71. On the lines west of Pittsburg and Erie there was re ported an Increare In gross earnings of $93. t, with a growth of $.VS.2) In operating expenses, resulting In a decrease In net earnings of $414.(S"i0. The whole railroad lit weakened sharply under the Influence of this showing. Prices In some Important storks. Including Pennsylvania, receded to a point or more below last night. There was an animated recovery upon the ap pearance of the bank statement, with Its unexpected recuperation of H. 644, 600 In the surplus reserves of the banks. Such a showing Is almost unpret edented for the first week In January. That the banks should have been able to set through the January settlement, which required re sources In excess of all previous records, with a merely nominal Increase In loans, was In Itself a pleasant surprise to those who had felt nervous about the money sit uation. In addition, the gain In cash for the week reached $5.4.Oi), which Is almost $a.i'io.l In excels of the largest preliminary estimates. The redeposlt of cash by the re tall shops, making up the proceeds of Christmas trade, is attributed as the cause of this showing. The recovery In prices met renewed hesvy eelllng, snd the market cloned easy and with net changes mixed. Amalgamated Copper and United States Steel were notably flrrn throughout. Man hattan was weakened by the requirements made upon the company by the state rail road commission for Increased equipment.

One of the noteworthy moves In th financial world that Is attracting a great deal of attention Is the pooling of Inter ests by small investors. A St. Louis llrm, the National Securities Company, Is the prime mover In the plm. Thin company receives the money of thousands of small Investors, and. combining them, form gigantic sums which enable them to suc cessfully transact enormous deals that pay handsome profits to the Individual mem of the pool. This is another phase of the Community of Interest Idea made so popular by J. Plerpont Morgan, tho only difference being that this company Is com posed of un unlimited number of small In vestors, while Mr. Morgan a companies are composed of u limited number of rich men. The Natlonul Is the tirst company organ ized on this new plan, but because of Ita wonderful success It Is but a question of a short time until many more will enter the field. It la a well known fact that tho man of money has thousands of opportuni ties to make profitable investments that never come to the man of email means. In populnr liinguaRe. "It takes money t make money." By this successful plan of combination the small Investor with from fifty to a few hundred dollars secures the same opportunities that come to the man of millions, and as a consequence realises the same enormous per cent of profit on his Investment, however email It may be. It can be safely raid that a more marked departure than tills plan was never made lu the world of money and those who take advantage of the opportunities offered by this company will realize more on their money In a week than they would under ordinary conditions in a year. Thu general plan upon which the company Is operated does not materially differ Irom that em ployed by tho National Bunks. The In vestors of the company occupy the same position us the stockholders ot the I. link. Each and every thirty il.iys a dividend la declared and each investor receives a draft ployed by the National Banks. The Invest ors of the compuny occupying 'he sama run no risks wuhtever. The entire capital of the company, One Hundred Thousand Dollars t$lm,0WJ). stands between the In vestors and low. The majority of the mammoth fortunes of this country were made by almost exactly the same methods as those employed by the National Securi ties Company. Combination is the keynote of present day success. The small investor, by placing his money with that of hundreds and even thousands of other small in vestors, obtains all the advantages of enormous capital unil his money earns as much, dollar for dollar, as that of the millionaire "Captains of Industry," while small sums, if invested alone, earn but 3 or 4 per cent and are usually tied up for long periods of time. Investments In the National Securities Company pay more than tills each month and are subject to withdrawal at any time. Upon investing the Investor receives a Certificate of De posit, stating on Its face that a sum equal to 6 per cent a month Is guaranteed, pay able monthly, and giving the holder ot tho certificate the right to return the certificate at any time he may choose and withdraw his investment In whole or In part in stantaneously. This Is without question one of the greatest opportunities for safe and highly profitable investment in the entire iinanclal world. It is worthy the careful consideration of any man who de sires to rapidly accumulate u snug bank balance and yet have his money invested where It is at all times subject to In stantaneous withdrawal and protected from loss by a company whose Iinanclal stand ing and reliability is beyond question. The National Securities Company Ih rap Idly extending Its Held of nitrations, and, to arouse adilltionnl Interest, has issued a booklet explaining fully Its plan of operat ing and giving full Information in regard to everytldng an investor would want to know. This booklet is sent free to all who write for It. Address at once. National Securities Company. Dept. 41. St. Louis, Mo. Aaama Coo Alloa Brcaca Prunawlck in Comatork Tannal. Con. (al. ak Va..
