BETWEEN CALIFORNIA AND SAC
RAMENTO STREETS.
San Francisco, California.

Twenty years OF successful exper-
fence as a Real Estate Agent enables
me to state that l have done well for
investors, when they followed my adj
vice.
The attention of those having money
to invest is called to the fact that there
are great opportunities to make splen-
did investments in San Francisco Real
Estate at the present time. The con-
dition Of realty at present favors the
buyer. This is the time to invest when
properties can be purchased at low
prices.
San Francisco has great future; all
unite on this point. 1t is to be the
great city of the Pacific Coast and the
man who buys now will make himself
rich.
I offer my experience and knowledge
or values OF property to those who de-
sire to purchase business properties
for income, or improved lots or blocks
for investment. Information cheer
fully given in -sference to all matters
pertaining to Real Estate in San Fran
cisco. I will be happy to correspond
in relation thereto.
Sometimes estates are divided, and
the property has to be sold: in this
way fine purchases can be made. The
undersigned possesses information Of
all such sales and can advise buyers
as to values.
Money invested on Real Estate Sc
curity for those who desire to loan
their money.
Full charge taken Of properties and
taxes paid for absent owners.

Arise aud shine!
Don't le a. clam,
But spread yourself On Uncle Sam
And turn your gljm
On him.
Look at him, will you? See
His glory and his majesty.
One foot is in Alaska's cold,
And with q bootleg full Of gold.
Another down
In Florida, whose crown
Is fair Pomona's, Summer Queen.
ROBBED in her everlasting green;
Whose fruits and flowers.

| Pour caaSeieSS harveStS: there
! Is a world OF sunshine, and the air
! Is full Of healing balm, and health
Adds to his wealth
| Its pension. He spreads his hands
| Ger other lands.
He smiles
| Upon the Sandwich Isles.
! Aud. with grin,
! He sticks them in
| The poCket Of his ample vest
| At their request.
| Snug little Porto Rico he
| Wears as his finger ring; she
| IS a diamond set
In a sapphire ring of wet.
| He spreads his flying coattails Ger
The Cuban shore
And hills;
And suffering Cuba's Ills
| Are neVeTmOre.
And Eastward, where the Orient leans
lon the sunrise, he takes the Philippines
In clustering beauty, as his toll,
| And pins them in his buttOnhOle.
About him everywhere, prosperity,
In field and shop and mill and argosy
Lies plenty, and
His is a happy land.
tSay, so, amt he q lOClCO? Amt
He a symphony in red paint?
Just watch him as he stands,
THE guardian of one from many lands
And see that handkerchief of his!
Gee whiz!
Get on to what it is!
The Stars and Stripes! Hooray!
And see him wave it. Say,
Hts good for sore eyes, amt it? Whoop'
He'll scoop
The universe before he's through
With that same old Red, White ant
Blue!
Flag OF our Union, wide as earth;
Flag that in freedom found it's birth;
Flag that shell nevermore be furled;
Flag that shall wave for all the world
The red in its stripes a light to shine
For the rights of man as the right di

The white for the peace that blesset1

Whose lot meath its loving folds ma!

The stars of the sky for its diadem;

Say, '99,
Arise and shine.
No year since the great year I has beer

And watch the Greater America boom
