Cheaper in price but too expensive to use. Horse-Shoe Tires are not cheap tires., They are made to give the lowest running cost per mile. Only the best of materials and skilled workmen are used in their construction. The result is a tire that many of the world's largest corporations use exclusively. That's the kind of a tire you want.

McHenry, Illinois The Wages of Capital After being in business for about thirty-two years, die Chicago Telephone Company, on January 1,1910,had a property the book value of which wasS30,659,59fL and 262,359 telephones in service. In the ten years since then the book value has increased $51,180,000, or 167%, and the number of telephones has increased 394,733, or 150%. Vastly more was accomplished in the past ten years la the development of the telephone service in the territory of the Chicago Telephone Company tluaii the thirty-two years preceding. The development of the telephone business must not ht allowed to stop; it must keep step with til industrial growth of the country. The next ten years will require for new buildings, switchboards, poles, wires, cables, instruments, etc., at least twice the amount of the new capital expended during the last ten years, and this large sum of idom^ can be secured from the people who buy bonds,stocks and notes only after they have been convinced that - they can safely invest in the Company's securities. We must pay the wages of labor, and W6 must P4J the wages of capital. If we pay the wages of labor and fail to pay the wages of capital, we can go on for a time with what we have, but we cannot grow, and the industry will come to a standstill. Telephone Rates is the answer! They must be sufficient to pay the wages of competent people to do the work; provide materials for repairs and maintenance ; replace worn-out property; pay taxes and other expenses and pay the wages of capital--the interest and dividends on the bonds, stocks and notes of the Company issued for money to pay for plant employed in the service of the public.
