One matter, however, may be added and emphasized—the greater part of this stock has been sold. Immediate action is necessary if you are interested. , Silver Lake Estates must strongly appeal to the careful and conserva tive investor, and to the young man to whom safety as well as substantial return is an important factor. Let us take, for the sake of Illus tration, tlie purchase of ten shares of stock—though, of course, you are at liberty to purchase as much more than ten shares as you wish. For ten shares, amounting to 11,000, which we take as the unit basis, you pay $200 cash and $200 each year thereafter for four years, in monthly, quarterly or semi-annual payments. Conservatively estimated, the re turns from your $1,000 investment will be (1) a land dividend, consisting of a lot of your selection in Silver Lake Estates worth $1,000: (2) $3,000 in cash profits from the sale of the re mainder of the property, and (3) the return of your original investment, making a total of $5,000 for your $1,000 interest.
