DANGER TO. INVESTORS,
While the public interest in rubber is as great eg over the erano is not quite so wild as if was a few weeks ago. This is so much to the goed, for the danger to which we previously referred is still present, and the food of now companies shows no sign of abating.
com
to
A public that enters recklessly on a particular gamble can always find its demand supplied by company promoter, who makes a ring by baying a property at a certain price And aditing as much to it in the shape of preft betweens and himself as the public will stand. gro- In recent rubber promotions those profts have be come onormers, and estates are being ospitalized at figures which are ridiculous even if they were able to live up to their estimates, which & great majority of them will never do
The sound and well-established concerns will unquestionably beast from the high price of rubber,
bat oven in these cases the dividends will have to be phenomousl before they give a good yield at the present level of the shares, The untried and unknown properties, which are doated on estimates and will live on estimates for a long time to come, have in many cases & bad time before them, and a tremendous wreckage will have to be cleared up in duocare,
PROMOTER'S MANEUTRES.
Tho share gambling instinct of the public has been dormant for many years, and speculative company promoters begun to feel that the public had been bitten so often that it would never rise to the bait again. The rubber boom has proved this theory to be wrong, and no matter what the price. whether the bad, whether it is enormously over-capitalise! property is good or or grossly over-valued, the pattie rush in to take the shures. The object is, of course, to sell there again as soon as a profit is show, and tho object of the next buyer is to do the same.
But thousands of moderate investors will get belly left in the end if they continue to support the craze which practically has developed juto pitch and toss..
A now company is brought ont, the simre lists are closed a few hours after they have opened, the shares are started at a premium on the Stock Exchange, furious dealing is in progress, and people interested resort to special measures to make the rowspapers acquaiutod with the fact that the sharea have hoon dealt in at this premium.
In the majority of cases the new companies are not worth a premium at all The profits aro more estimates and do not become approof- ablo for several years, and who is going to say what will be the positions of the rubber market
few years hence?
The ball of rabber shares asserts that the demand for rubber will increase equally with the supply, and if you point to the fact that hundreds of companies have been foated recently, which will ad prodigiously to the supply, he counters this by observing that many of the new promotions will never produes rubber at all, or, if they do, it will be so bad that it need not be taken into accourt.

SECRET OF THE WORLD.
A STUDY IN THE FINE ART OF SYMPATHY.
Nothing in the world is single;
All things, by law livino,

Why not I with thing?
-"Love's Philosophy."
I picked up a new book, and there words caught my eye.:-
I shall try to show that if the world has a sesret it is to be found in sympathy with all things
Sympathy is feeling with other people--not only duplicating their feelings, but understand ing their immost thought, appreciating their highest pleasure, weeping with them not only because they weap, but for the cause of their wooping, Sympathy rushes ont to all the pleasures and pains of this our mortal life.

nideration. Tako, by way of illustration, the estimated production of one recent promotion. The Gan Kee Rubber Estato esta forth in its Prospectus that next year the estimated yield will be over 7,500lb., and it works out its profit on a basis of 6s. 6d. a pound. This is low, but not too low, for raw rubber may drop in price just as steadily as it has risen. Bat it is esti mated that three years later, in 1914, the ontpat will have roached 135,0001b, and two years after 255,0001b, while this will be further in

There is the story of the three stage in a young plantation: how two leapt the wire fence, but a young one, frightened, refused to follow; how the two waited while for him, and then how ons, a good nyal, came back to the fonce. The little one ran towards him; the royal trotted Away, but the little one stayed at the jump.

of his head, as much as to say,
As there are now a few hundred rubben com panies we should like to know what the price of raw rubber in the market will be when the whole output is thirty-four times larger than it will be next year..
The directors of the Gaa Kee estimate that it will be 48. 61. a pound in 1913 and 59, 6. in 1916, and that, after allowing 18. 6d. a pound for cost of collecting and rkoting, profits will be £12,375 and £25,500 in the respective years. From these profita London expensasaad directors foes would have to be deducted, but the point is on the estimated price. On this experts differ with a vengeance, An interesting book has just boon pablished dealing with rubber plant ing in Malaya, for which Mr. M 8. Parry, a

Lespinasie, who, in her salon, queaned it over French society for many a year. No beauty, she, but one who by rand sympathy brought out all the wittiest thoughts of her coartiers, their most sparkling utterances. Sympathy always is the secret of social success.
ALL IS NATURAL,
The French better understand this tha ourselves. They hire a saying, “To ÜLEIM derstand all in to forgive all-au echo of Pope's phrase, "Whatever is, is right," It does not justify all evil. It means only that te approach any problem with sympathy is t find a surprising naturalness about it. It ig possible to enter into all phases of life synt pathetically. Even the most unwelcome aspects, rented a sympathy, become, if not beautiful, at least not repulsive. Nothing human should come amiss to a truly human nature, "We should live with those who are alive."
And the conclusion of the whole matter is that the search for the Right is, alas too often a fruitless quest, and Truth for ever lies at the bottom of a well. But what if an enlightened sympathy with all things shall discover that Truth is everywhere, and all that is is Right? Then-why, then, we should hold in our hands the secret of secrets. -M.
