THE SYNDICATE 345 
Oaks are now content to hold shares in one of 
the great trusts, which they bought several points 
below par, and which pay 1} per cent every 
three months. Even Lena, who held only one 
share of the C., R. L, & P. five years ago, has 
so increased her income-bearing property that 
she is now looked upon as a “catch” by her 
acquaintances. If I am correctly informed, she 
has an annual income of $105, independent of 
her wages.
