How Main street Land is Given
Away.

Fourteen year.old Seeding orange
trees have an auction value. SIS each
is an extremely low figure. No farmer
would contract to grow them for that
sum. 1t would not begin to pay him for
his labor. In fact he would ridicule
such an offer. Twelve trees to a 5Oxll9
foot lot at that price would equal $50.
The city improvements, such as ten
beautiful dwellings, heavy plank walks,
electric lights, etc., nearly exhaust the
diff renee between $3.50 and $3.50, the
price of each lot ON the Cooperative
Nursery tract. The owner therefore
asks less than cost of improvements; the
land is thrown in free. This is why the
offer OF the Cooperative tract is the
lowest ever made in this city. There is
not capitalist in Los Angeles who
would agree to furnish like improve.
ments for $250-that is, contract to take
new land and contract to put on it what
we offer, waiting fourteen years for his
money.
So practically fine and slightly piece
of land is given away without charge.
Examine this offer every way you choose,
realize the tracts location, in q direct
est priced street we have, you may then
understand that small investment at
our figures will return you many fold
increase within very few years.
There is not flaw of any kind in the
property; every detail is perfect, includ-
ing the title.
This is forced sale, otherwise no such
price would be made. The reason is
explained by the managers. Many sub.
scribers have already realized what we
say. A large proportion of these lots
are already sold. The remainder are
already taken, il we can rely on the
promises of apparently sincere people.
Five years hence this tract will be as
near the city proper as Fourth and
Main are now. What surer investment
cBn one make? No other securities can be
gin to give like returns. Look around
the cities in the United States. How
many of their wealthy inhabitants be-
came wealthy by real estate investments?
Nearly all of them. Where one man
makes money in business, so make
wealth by city real estate investments.
Look at U. s. statistics. What is the
growing wealth of our country? Nine.
tenths and more composed of real estate.
Then do you know anybody who has
not largely profted themselves by in.
vestments in real estate in Los Angeles ?
We do not. Many have become rich
thereby. Don't hesitate, but invest a
little. Our installments permit you to
advantage yourself with slight or no in
convenience.

Zaniloch.

This coniuror opens at the Grand
Opera House tomorrow evening for one
week and Saturday matinee. Zamlooh
does things very cleverly, does things that
will astonish those who have heretofore
believed in spiritualism. Having seen
Zamloch expose it they will be liable to
lose faith in their pet mediums. Zam-
loch gives away numerous presents each
evening--how does he do it? Zsmloch
says: "lf carried twenty or thirty
people in my company could give no
presents, but carry only four. 1t re.
quires no more to give first.class en-.
tertainment in my line, and we fill our
houses just as full as the best company
on the road, so instead of paying sala-
ries, fare and hotel bills for thirty
people, we simply take that money and
put it into prizes which we give away
and thus divide our profits with the
audience" Zamloch ought to know his
business as he has been at it about
twenty years.
