REAL ESTATE.
Fair Market and Brighter Pros.
pects-A Big Sale in January.

The real estate market the past week was
not a very active one, but fully ND to the eX-
pectations of about all the agents. At the
opening of the week it was thought hardly
probable that any sales would be made until
after Christmas, still several transactions
of considerable Importance are reported,
and right in the midst Of the holiday festiv-
tiles at that.
The near future is full of promise TOR an
active market and some very large sales.
Speaking of the present situation yester-
day, Mr.. Won Rhein of o. F. Won Rhein q
Co., real-estate agents, said: when found

ceeded in recovering lost ground. Monthly
dividends look more like what they were

to, to enlven the monotony OF every day
