'Fashionable people watch its fluctuations feverishly, All day long they are ringing up their city-agents inquiring the latest price, and whether the market rales firm.
I have never knowa society so interested in the share, market before, sida Mincing-lane broker of wide experience to a Daily Despatch reprefentative. The position of rubber in this respect is totally different from altnost anything| that has ever occurred before, because many society people, having travelled abroad, have visited the rubber plantations. They have come bome and reported favourably upon shem in the courie of conversation, and in this way, the news has spread through all grades of aristocracy to the Royal Family, due member of which has dealt directly in the operations:
This is decidedly, unusual ai the Royal Family appoint agents to conduct its invest- ments as a rule, and the departure is the more remarkabla in this instance, because the mom- bar happened to be a Princess.
The market has passed its speculative stage, ́aud is a sound-investment, with no cuspicion of gamble attached to it, and, having pur chased their shares, society is conteal to keep them as an investment. The product is selling at an average of 7. per 1b, and, as its cost is only is, 6d,, there is a profit of 430 per cent. No other product in the world is yielding a similar surplus, and the demand is likely ́to continue for two years with these enormous profits. Consequently, at the price at which the shares are selling, a steady dividend cf to per cent, is assured.
