    HOUSEHOLDERS' MORTGAGE AND INVESTMENT COMPANY ( Limited ) . Preliminary Capital , 50 , 0002 ., in 10 , 000 Shares of 51 . each . rg ~\ KE objects of the Company are the Purchase JL of Reversions and the Granting of Loans , for long or short periods , on the mortgage of real or household property , bank , railway , and other shares , to be repaid by periodical instalments . Its operations will be restricted to advances on positive security only , by which all risk of loss will be avoided . , ¦ The advantage to the public of borrowing on gradually redeeming mortgages has been proved to be extremely acceptable , in preference to borrowing on mortgage returnable in one 9 um , because the borrower , who can easily pay interest , and a-portion of the principal , if allowed , is seldom or never able to accumulate the full amount borrowed . A system , therefore , which admits of the gradual liquidation of a mortgage is obviously desirable . The investments of the Company are calculated to pay a dividend of at least 8 pur cent . The liability of shareholders is limited to the amount of their shares , and all the advantages of the recent changes in the law of partnership are made available . The Company offers , as a guarantee , the investment of its funds upon securities of the first order only , and that no Director or Officer of the Company shall become a borro \ V 6 i *» A half-yearly statement will be issued of money received ( specifying sources )—money invested ( specifying securities ) —general summary of business to date , and pront ana loss to date of statement .
