How Erie, Pa., Kept Out Wildcat Stocks That city had more than its share of the trials .and tribulations with the floating of wild

cat stocks in its confines. Salesmen of promo

tion schemes had no trouble separating thou sands of dollars from investors.

its citizens realized that there could be no

municipal supervision, so it studied blue sky laws of many states and finally evolved a plan

whereby stock offerings of every nature were examined and citizens were told not to invest

until a report had been made on the offering.

The details of the plan are set forth in The

Nation's Business:

"The rules adopted were that complete selling literature should be supplied, that a state

ment of the financial condition of the house be

delivered, and that the board have sufficient time to conduct its investigation as to financial standing, - prof it-making ability, personnel and such other "requirements as any partner would

have a'' right to know. It-was explained to the

salesman that no statement would be made for

publication, that no opinion would be expressed

unless the proposition wasshown to be fraudu

lent or undesirable, and that before any report would be made to a prospective buyer, the sell- , ing representative would be called into conference and allowed to see the findings.- It was also explained that the board had no authority to pre

vent or restrict-activities, but that, should it be asked for an examination, it would suggest that no investment be made until its report .was prepared. It was agreed that the report should be open for inspection by anyone, the only facts not

being available being those given to the board

in confidence.

"After the selling literature is received, im

mediate action is taken to procure the financial

report, and, if possible, to obtain a statement of several years' business, in order that the profits or earning power may be ascertained. The personnel of the enterprise is carefully examined and a close study made of the proposition, particularly of its financial condition, in which the majority show their weakness.

"Upon the conclusion of the research the

salesman is invited to the office and is informed of the facts learned. He is then told that that is the report which will be made by the board and that he is at liberty to refer to it anyone asking

for information. It has been the policy of the board to make no report over the telephone and to make no statement in writing other than those shown as facts through its examination. When inquiry is made at its own office, it is the cusr torn to submit the facts with such explanation as will indicate whether a proposition has qualified as one of an established earning power, or whether it is still in the promotional or speculative stage, the inquirer being told that the purpose of the investigation is only to ascertain the facts and to give no advice or opinion. "Great care is taken by the board that its report contains nothing but facts. P"or every statement made, proof is in hand, and it is expressly

stated to both the representative of the proposition and the proposed investor that the board will not recommend and will not advise, its purpose being to show that a proposition is speculative and promotional, if such be the case, or is upon an investment basis if a showing of earnings demonstrates that to be the fact."

PLAY THE GAME. No one wins all the time. Nor. do all the prizes go to the same man. But if you will look into the matter, you will learn that the winner is always the worker. You have to keep fit to win any game. ,w... " And you , have to play the game, largely for the game's sake itself. Or else it Isn't a game at all Just some endurance contest of wit or brawn.

I used to watch the ants work when I was a boy and I watch them now, too, -when I am in the country and run across them. They are the most interesting workers in the world of nature, except possibly the bees. Any

man can learn from these creatures so tiny that they could stand on their

hind legs on top of a pin head! But you never saw an ant shirk his

duty or his work. He plays the game from morning to night. He is efficient. And if you knock down his house, he v.ill start immediately to re-build it. The ants are great team players. Many times you strike big snags in playing the game. But that is a part of the game so stick to it and play it out. Meet every move or change in the Fame of your life with as little irritation as possible. Try to will and steel yourself to emergency not letting the world know the emotions that may stir you as you face the task. The important thing is to be ready and able. Play the game according to the rules already made. During the actual playing of the game is no time to change the rules. Never foret that as you learn, you always earn and the more you learn, the more you earn. Lawrence had as his battle motto: "Don't give up the ship!" You make it your motto in the game that you play each (lav. Never think of giving up. Somebody else may win today but YOU may win tomorrow. I think you will!

"FREEZONE"

A day s motoring, an afternoon on

the tennis court or golf links, a sun

bath on the beach or exposure on a water trip, often brings on a deep tan or vivid crimson or, more perplexing

sun, a vigorous crop of freckles. A

very necessary thing then is raercol

or freckles quite easily. It literally peels off. tho affected skin just a little at a time, so there's no hurt or inconvenience. As the skin comes off In almost Invisible flaky particles, no trace of the treatment is shown. Get an ounce of mercolized wax at your druggists, and use this nightly as you

Wrinkles, so apt to form at this seasen,, may be easily and quickly removed by bathing the face in a solution of powdered saxollte, one ounce, dissolved in witch hazel, one-half pint. This is not only a valuable astringent, but has a beneficial tonic effect also. Advertisement.

HOPES EVERY ONE

WILL TAKE ADVICE AND TRY TRUTONA Evansville Woman Says Others Should Use Perfect Tonic As It Will Help Them EVANSVILLE. Ind., Aug. 26 "I hope every one who is in need of a

good tonio will hear about Trutona, and try it, "Mrs. Paul Vittelow, a wellknown Evansville woman, who lives at 620 Walnut Street, told a Trutona Representative recently. ' "Trutona has made me feel like a new woman, "Mrs, Vittelow continued, "after I'd been in a nervous and rundown condition for the past several months. I've been so nervous, and felt so draggy, and tired out, that I've not felt like attending to my household duties. I was very restless at night." "But 1 feel 100 per cent better in every way, since I've taken Trutona. This wonderful medicine has improved me remarkably, in the past ten days. I did my own washing, and a big one, too, last week, and yet I didn't feel 'all in', as I would have before I took Trutona. My former nervousness has vanished entirely, and I'm able to rest well at night, now. Trutona surely proved its worth In my case, and I'm glad to recommend it to others." Trutona is sold in Richmond at Quigley's Drug Stores. Advertisement.

The "Reds" Are On The R11112 The gallant struggle of the Poles to save their capital from capture has at last been crowned with success, and the Bolshevist reverse bids fair to become a rout, according to an arresting article in this week's number of THE LITERARY DIGEST, dated August 28th, on this spectacular turning of the tide of war. The Minneapolis Journal is quoted as saying that "the Bolshevik menace to Western civilization, if any, is now political," while an Eastern paper is sure that "Bolshevism has shot its bolt." The Newark Evening News asserts that the "lowering of Bolshevism's prestige will naturally be followed by reactions within Russia," and the New York World declares that "it was not merely a battle that Poland won in front of Warsaw, but the right to assume a position of equality at the peace table." Other articles of more than usual interest in this number of THE DIGEST are: The American Woman Voter Arrives A Summary of Opinions From Friends and Foes of the Suffrage Amendment Called Forth by the Recent Decisive Action of the Tennessee Legislature
