OUTSIDE STOCKHOLDERS
MiSM JUNEHU CLOUT
Progress being made by the Al
aska Juneau Gold Mining Com
pany in reducing its debt is being
closely watched by many interested
persons in Seattle and Alaska who
are stockholders in the company,
says the Seattle Times.
It now appears as though aboli
tion of the funded debt will be ac •
complished by the end of 1930, af
ter which the company will be free
of all indebtedness and any future
earnings will accrue to t he 1.446.000
shares of $10 par common stock.
December 31, 1926, the funded
debt totalled $2,513,894. This has
grown because of the unpresented
bond coupons on which interest
has been credited after the due
dates to $2,783,856 on December 31,
1927. Therefore, if this is accomp
lished by the end of 1930 the en
tire $2,783,856 will have been retired
in three years, which does not in
clude the many thousands of dol
lars that have been paid out in
interest.
It is practically assured that the
stock will be put on a dividend
paying basis after the first of the
year.

You can’t help admiring the charm of natural beauty, any more than
you can help enjoying the natural mildness of a Camel Cigarette.
Camel’s mildness starts in the sun-drenched fields where the tobaccos
grow. Only the choicest of the golden Turkish and mellow Domestic
leaves are selected for Camels. Through every step of their cure and
manufacture the delicate, sun-ripe fragrance of these tobaccos is scien
tifically preserved. And so Camels come to you mild and delightful—
not flat and flavorless.
Swing with the crowd to Camels. Learn the happy difference
between true mildness and insipid flatness. Smoke without fear of
throat-discomfort or after-taste—just for pleasure!
