Y, ,/ The Company of Pruwse Bros. Limited, is being formed for the purpose \ `\ of carrying on a General Merchandise Business in. .Charlottetown and Sydney, " also a Lumber and Milling Business in Souris, P. E. I. ” ' _ y' For this purpose the Company purpose taking over the splendid business, ` '\ \ " The Goodwill, and the Prop_rty of the well known Firms of Pnowsa Baos., and PRo.wsE BROS. & Co., at their fair market value, and to continue the business in i ' 1 "- 15' the most approved manner. . ' - "\, Q ` It is also purposed to enlarge the present business, taking in other lines 5° " such as Boots and Shoes, Etc. To do this it is necessary to secure more capital, ,' and it has been decided to do so in the only manner thoroughly approved by the \~ \ ` busipless world-namely, forming a ]oiut Stock Company, with Limited 5" Lia i ity. 1 ' ' _ y' ' This has been done, and, in order to have as many as possible of our '\ l' customers interested in the Company, we purpose to sell Two Hundred and Fifty 33- ` Shares ol"Stock in small lots at $rco per share, to Farmers and others through- ' Q/ out the Island, believing that all such shareholders will be standing advertise - ‘- .` "` ments for the Company, and do all in their power to help the business in every - V way. r' , ¢ , ~ , As soon as these shares have been sold, 2 meeting of all the share' \ " holders will be called and Directors elected, Bye Laws enacted and the Company- ` , Organization completed. ` ' j It is also purposed to pav 6 Per Cent Interest per annum on all shares, so .. " sold in P. E. Island, and that the Provisional Directors will buy these shares " back at the end of five years from date of issue at $105 per share;this is intended ',/ to equal an annual interest on the investment at the rate of 7 per cent. per ' `\- , ii annum for 5 yea"s. p - i . . The Business which the Company is taking over is one of the best, if not ' ' 'if' the very best, paying businesses in P. E. Island tc-day, and is increasing every i `\ " Zeta' by large amounts. This is no doubt a gilt edged investment for the share- ,i` ` ° 0 ers. i - ' " The management of the business will be in the handsrof the present l managers who have built up. the business to its present magniiicent proportions. ' . It is also proposed that after the payment of 6 per cent. per annum on all ,f shares of' the Company, the balance of the net Earnings shall be transferred to \ , ‘r a reserve or rest account. , ` The Dividends for live years at the rate of 6 per cent. are guaranteed by ' ;" the Provisional Directors, L.
