F"t~t-L Location, =" Spruanre City" is be-
tween SmyIna--a fiourishing town Of 5000 in
habitants-and Clayton, growing village on
the Delaware Railroad, and the northern ter
,njnus of the Nd. 4 Del Railroad. Land is
high and dry; climate excellent, and water
good a ravigable stream and two depOts
within mile of any part of it.
SeccRd--dS an Investment. None of the
lots being less than 40 by 100 ft,-the larger
ranging to 30 by DO teet-the subscriber bas-
ing his figures on prices being constantly real
lied for building lots, in both above-named
towns, feels safe In assuring the public, that
the least market value Of any lot he offers is
fully equal to the cost; while the more valua-
ble--even without buildings-are worth 800
OF more.
Thtrd-Prospective Proft-The improve
ments on the ground here offered consist of
fine brick dwelling, valued with the lot on
which it stands at $4,000; two dwellings worth
$500 each; four dwellings worth $500 each
one house occupying two fronts and easily
convertible into two dwellings; and two out
buildings, back of two lots worth $500 each
aggregate, eleven Houses to go with eleven OF
the 400 lots now being rapidly sold at the uni
form price OF 800 per lot.
FO,uth-The Lots all front on avenues sixty
feet wide, and cross streets forty feet WIDE
There is back entrance to nearly every Lot,
making tnem more uesiIaOio ioi n0o00 Va A"O
tory sites.
Fiffh,-The bona fide nature of the plan
of sale This is no lottery scheme. Every
person gets what he buys-a building lot
some with buildings, some without, while all
must enhance in value with the improvement
of any, and improvement, because of natural
advantages, there must and will be. So easy
is the whole property of access, both by rail
and water, that, situated as it is, adjoining one
of the most enterprising towDs in the most de-
slrable portion OF the State of Delaware, with.
in sixty miles of Philadelphia and thirty of
Wilmington, manufacturers and others can
but perceive an unusually good opportunity OF
investing small sum safely and prOftably,
and their earnest attention is hereby solicited.
