SQUIRE
PARK

Lots are 20 by l28 feet in size.
Remington avenue is IS feet wide and
all other streets are 66 feet wide.
The distance from the business center is
so short that many persons will prefer to
walk down town mornings. For those
who wish to ride the Lake Washington
(Madrona Park) branch Of the Union
Trunk line passes through the center of
the tract and affords excellent service.
The Yesler avenue cable road Is only 2ls
blocks south of Squire Park and the
Madison street cable road is only few
minutes walk north, so that the trans
portation facilities are all that could pos
sibly be desired.
The location everyone is familiar with
and the lay of the land is beyond criti-
cism. Every lot is a good one and the
view includes Elliott bay, the Olympics,
Lake Washington. the Cascades and q
superb view Of Mount Rainier.

RENTON -
ADDITION

Is about the cheapest property in town.
Already many people have concluded that
they would rather live in Renton Addi-
ton than on the first hill, along by Tenth,
Eleventh, Twelfth. Thirteenth and Four
teenth streets, and the price Of the prop
erty is about one-third OF what property
is held at on the first hill. Nearly every
one takes car to 60 to Twelfth street and
it is only four or five minutes longer
to Renton Addition and the location is
unquestionably better. From there one
can see clear over the first hill and also
have the view the other way.
Renton Addition was plated on a eener-
Gus plan. Ordinary lots are 60 by 10 feet
in size, although some are smaller and
some larger. There is . l6-foot alley in
every lot.
Division street is 90 feet wide. All other
streets are 6 feet wide.
Nearly all Of the streets are graded and
the grade tax paid.
Renton Addition has city water, gas.
electric lights. telephones and practically
all of the convenience any other section Of
the city possesses.

Ever since We first put this property
on the market there have been many
disappointed people. They delayed se.

else picked it up and then they regretted
their procrastination. It was 30 at the
first and second sales, and there will be a

The lots so far sold in Renton addition
have been purchased by welI-known bust

During a recent stormy day "A gentle

thus addressed looked round and dis
closed a perfect stranger, but before the

The Right and Left.

The buttons on coats, etc. are placed
on the right side and the shed Of the
hair in boys to the left, evidently to suit
manipulation by the right hand. The
great philosopher Newton records that
at first he confined his astronomical OBJ
servations to his right eye. but after
ward he managed to train his left. But
there are persons who could not do this,
owing II the unequal strength OF their
eyes. Strange to say, the Chinese assign
the place of honor to the left.
AT Kunyenye. in Africa, Cameron re-
lates being introduced to the heir pre-
sumptive to the throne, the nails OF
whose left hand had been allowed to
grow to an enormous length as a sign OF
high rank, proving that he was never re-
CURED to perform manual labor, and
also providing him with the means OF
tearing the meat which formed his usual

It is a matter of Inmo observation
that the loudest sounds are not always
made by the largest animals. The roar
of the lion exceeds in s~onoronsness the
cry of the elephant. ANY II who had
only heard without seeing a bullfrog
might we'll suppose that its fearful voice
breaking the silence of the night must
certainly come from the throat OF an an
imal of Formidable dimensions.
But perhaps the most remarkable case

natives that they had heard a tiger roar

that the alarming roars had beer emitted

Filibuster. freebooter and buccaneer
are words c~urionsly interrelated. The
French and the English sea adventures
once made common cause against Span
ish settlements in the new world. and all
three of these words came in time to de-
scribe the rude sea soldiers who de-
spoiled the Spanish main and the towns
upon the coasts Of the Spanish possess
sions. Filibuster is said TO be the result
of an attempt to make a French word OF
freebooter, and the English borrowed il
back from the French because it sounded
less frankly brutal than the English
word.
Buccaneer was originally French in
form, and it meant at first Il who
hunted the boncan or wild cattle ant

Be patient when the weary brain
i racked with thought and anxious care,
And troubles in an endless train
Seem almost mere than it can bear.

The agony of hone deferred,
To labor still from day to day,
The prize unwon, the prayer unheard.
And still To hone and strive and wait
The due reward OF fortunes kiss,
This il to almost conquer fate.
