Is it strange that lot 80 by 80,
containing 800 square feet, sells
without agents when compared with
one 100 by 40, containing only 1000
square feet, or less than one,hali as
much?
Our streets are 40ft. and alleys 16

Travels of a Bottle.

A bottle containing the follow
ing note has been picked up on
the shore at San Pedro, Southern
California:
''Jan. 26, 1876:-My name is
Henrietta Ford. Our ship was
wrecked off the coast of Labrador.
There were fifty persons on the
boat. Only three are on this
boat with me. All the rest we're
drowned. Don't expect to live
more than an hour longer. If
possible send word to my parents,
East Forty ninth street, New
York"
Whether the name of the ship
was written on the paper cannot
be determined, for the bottom of
the page is largely worn away.
