Business is Disastrous.
Legitimate Mining is commanding attention and money as never before.
Its profits are enormous. No other business offers such opportunities. Actual profits on investments of-
ten reach from 100% to 3,000 % in less than one year.

makes a specialty of reliable mining investments. In November 1905, he- recom- mended a stock at 18c which sold in November, 1906, at $15.00. Another rose from 70c to $7.75 and another from 40c to $10.00 in less than one year. Many similiar records have been made in the last year.
Right Now there are many chances to buy good stocks which have every pros- pect of an enormous increase in value. Let Harrison help you select them. He is In daily communication with best markets. Whether you want to buy or sell, see or write him at

The Reed School FOR NERVOUS AND BACKWARD CHILDREN
AND FOR THE CORRECTION OF DEFECTIVE SPEECH. The School makes a favorable impression on both Physician and Parent,
Because :-
The "family physician" notes the skillful. careful use of the latest means of bringing about the greatest possible mental and phy- Bicul development of children whe require far more individual care and discriminating guid- ance than ean possibly be given in the ordinary publie or private school
Because :-
The parent notes the truly "homelike" atmos- phere which is present, as iridicated by -the entire absence of anything "institutional.
The parent notes the evident pleasure which the Road School-pupils take in their work.
The parent notes the many unmistakable to- kens of the exercise of the tenderest care in the proper development, mentally and physi -. cally, of every pupit.
The parent notes the school's proud record, showing the Arousing of dormant faculties, the correction of misdirected energies. and in not a few cases the fitting of children to attend/ regular schools who had formerly been re- jected by such schools, on the ground that it was impossible for such children to be taught.
A leading lecture of the work is the cure of stammering and other forms of defective speech. This work is by no means confined to the nervous and backward. a's the Reed method for the cure of stammering is favorably known throughout the country and attracts pupils of all ages including professional and business men. The premises utilized and the teachers employed are entirely separate from those connected with the school for nervous and backward children. · Refer by permission to :- DR. DAVID INGLIS.
