Your Money.
Recently New York syndicate pur-
chased $4,000 worth of land in this
Northwest. The syndicate was formed by
one of Boston's most conservative capital
lists. 1t is only a few weeks ago that we

property on Second street to the amount
Of $l27.5o0. We have inquiries from other
investors for much larger amounts. This
shows the way the wind is blowing. The
Puget Sound Country, especially Seattle,
is good place to invest money, and East
ern people are taking advantage of it. The
completion of the Great Northern railway
will bring moneyed men here. They want
good property that pays an income, and il
you can buy today We can sell in the
future at good profit for you. Some
holders must sell. We have income prop
erty to suit any amount You have-$2, 600
to $4,000. This is business property.
Choice residences, $1,000 to $4,000. Lots
for building at prices that are genuine
bargains. No trouble to show the prop
erty. If you don't want to build now, it
will be a good investment to purchase
while bargains can be had. Come and
talk with u.s.
