For those who are outside the sphere of finan cial activity, it is often very cllilicult to discriminate between Rood and bad se curities. It H the purpo:-e of a booklet called Principles of Investment' to point out a few grucral principles which may bo ot assiMnncc U, the Invisible public In dis ci iniinatinK between the Rood and the bad. No attempt is made to lay down rubs nhich will lead Investors to suro success; luther it Is attempted to point out certain pitfalls which every investor should mold if his course Is to he pass ably flee I nun mistakes, and alo to es tablish ci rtain principles that should prow helpful in determining the actual value of sicuntles. Probably no absolute rub's can be made in regard to choosing Inwslmeiils wisely, for It often happens Hint an appaiently Rood Investment will prow implantable owing to special cir cumstances.

He was on tho plat form, at the edge of the clock, whore tho coal Is hoisted fiom Uk boats to bo transferred fuither hick to the coal sheds, lie was lyint; on his back, with his head placed across the rails of the car track. A Herman, who lives on North avenue, i - tired the body at nin o'clock, ni h" wa. i passing on his way to the bay. Iteturnlng from his fishing trip at noon, he noticed the body lyliif,' In the same curious posi tion, and at once notified the men who were employ ed in the coal yard. Drs. Courtney and Haylies were summoned titid found that the skaU had been i ma tured al the base of the brain, no doubt caused by a fall. Mr. Daley gave Waldo the key? of the store yesterday morning at 7:15 and the latter opened the store as usual. When Mr. Daley leturned from mass at about !l;30 lc found tho stote locked and com menced looking for his clerk. Why Waldo should climb So feet up the elevator shaft Is a mystfry to everybody. The elevator Is never used in tho winter, and if lie had not been lying on the edge of the platform ho would have remained there unseen until spring. Waldo, who was .19 years of age. Is sur vived bv an uncle, Homer Waldo of Wat llngford, and two nephews of the same place. 1 turner Waldo arrived in tho city last evening and will accompany the body to Walllngford. J. ft.
