rHE REAL ESTATE MANS DREAM.
Has e vision OF the Most Crowded spot on
Earth and Buys Its Only Vacant Lot.

Has e Vision or the MOSt CfoN0od Bpot On
Earth and Buys Its Only vacant Lot.
speaking about the phenomenal value
OF real estate in the crowded parts Of Man
haitian Island said the real estate man,
Il had q dream last night Of o place whore
land wal 30 valuable that il made land
here seem like acreage property.
This place was on an isthmus between
the two n~emispheres, a narrow strip OF
land that was the most crowded spot on
earth. There was Just street along
through this isthmus. and all creation that
passed from one hemisphere to the other
had to pass along this t~horoughfere.
Sure, this was q place TO do business.
II there ever was one and by graoiousi
there was q vacant lot on the great isthmus
thoroughfare, just one vacant lot, with
q sign stuck up: For Sale. 70 Close or Es-
tate. Inquire Of So-and-So.'
And Of course, / sort Of saunters into
the ONCE indicated on the sign right away,
and | says to the man there:
What you asking for that lot down
there at Ear And he says:
"a million dollars q front foot
How much is there Of itf' ! asked
him, and he says:
s'Seventy feet; and / says:
s'Wel, III take IT, just like that, because
knew il was q bargain; never'd been Of
at that price in the world, / knew. except
TO close an estate, and the only wonder to
me was that somebody hadn't snapped
IL up before ! came along.
so | bought the only vacant lot
on the great isthmus throroughfare, and
the man said he'd have, the papers made
out right away and | could drop in at 0
O'Clock the next morning and pay the
money and he'd hand over the deed; and
then ] went out and stood on the sidewalk
and saw those wonderful multitudes Of all
the peoples Of the earth passing in those
amazing professions, crowds that made
avenue, New York, seem like the lines Of
stragglers working their way out along
TO some county fair; and then I goes down
| to tina vacant lot at %, my lot, and stands
there and sees EN- 60 by from there, and
pats myself on the back and says TO my
self:
well, son. thank goodness. you've finally
hit up on something that you're going TO
make something on; large money
And ] was oongratulating myself like
that. watching the people 20 by, when all
OF a sudden IL struck me that t~wenty-four
hours was a pretty short time for me TO raise
$50, 000, 600 in. with mi q good ways from
home; for this was a cash sale, you under
stand, cash on delivery Of the deed, and !
knew perfectly well that I'd find q string
OF men waiting in the Office In the morning,
any one OF them ready to snap this bargain
II ] wasn't there with the money, and I
suppose II must have been worrying over
how ! was going 70 get the t7o,0 600 900 to-
gether In that time that woke me up

 The firm of Hemingway & Chamber lain with insurance and real estate of fees at 157 Church street, have leased for 8 term of years to J. 0. Clogston & Son, fancy box makers of this city, the Long Brick Store" property in East Grand avenue. The latter firm will occupy the buildings about July 1, after needed repairs, alterations and improvements have been made to them. This structure is one of the interesting landmarks in this section of the state, having been continuously the scene of active business operations since 1920 with the exception of the last nine or ten years, when it has been vacant and neglected. As late as 1870, this store was known throughout all eastern Con- necticut, having been at one time the largest grocery and dry goods empori- um outside of Boston. Those who can recall the active scenes connected with it during those years will doubtless be glad to learn that a new sphere of use fitness has been opened up for this fa- miliair structure. Messrs Clogston & Son will materially enlarge their plant to meet the demands of rapidly growing business, which is now made possible by the added facilities of their new home

WASTED SYMPATHY.

r. Augustus Heinze, at q dinner in Butte, praised Western orator
 "At the start" said MT. Heinze. "this man secures the sympathy of his audi ence The secure sympathy at the start is often the secret of success.
 There was, for instance, a distracted fellow who entered a tgrocer's shop and said
 I belive I am an injured husband, sir, and l desire to verify my suspicious by watching house in the next street. But l can only do this safely from the rear of your shop. Will you be good enough to let me sit by the open win dow there for half an hour?"
 ''The grocer, batting the mans shoul- der in kindly fashion, said:
 " TO be sure, my friend. Make your self at home. And good luck to you
 Some time passed. Then the jealous husband rushed through the shop. roll ing his eyes and muttering:
 <" I'll kill her! I'll go home and get the gun and kill her nowl'
 " Your wtfe?" said the grocer.
 " Yes, groaned the man. My false wife, my adored May. I cannot doubt her guilt and before sundown I shall be g murderer
 ''The grocer tried to detain him, but he got away. Nothing happened in the way of murder for an hour or more and then, little disappointed and sus- picious, the grocer made an investiga- tion in the back of his shop, to find that there had been passed out through the open window three tubs of butter crate of eggs, two bags of flour and dozen hams"

GOATS IN THE UNITED STATES.
Two Million of the Animals. and Two
 flfths Are Angoras.

Two Million of the Animals. and Two
 fifths Are Angoras.
 In the United States there are at present about two million goats, says Richard Arthur, in the Circle Maga- zine. Nearly two-fifths of these are Angoras The rest are of various i'm ported breeds, crossbreeds and mon grel mixtures Many American farmers keep a few goats with their sheep, 1t being a we'll known fact that dogs which are given to worrying sheep will not so readily molest flock containing a goat or two The climate and soil of most of the states of the Union are well fitted for the raising of goats, and as a goat costs for proper main tenance only about one-eighth as much as COW and yields a surprising number and amount of products, there Is little doubt that competent goat raising in this country, especially in the vicinity of large cities would prove exceedingly remunerative. The chief things to be remebered in this connec- tion are that good breeds are essential to success and taat although the goat will thrive almost anywhere. and any amount of cold, 1t does best on dry land and when kept reasonably warm.
 Most people have the idea that the goat, to do well. must be allowed to run more or less wild and be always kept in the open air. As matter of fact, it adapts itself admirably to farm life, and gives its best results when properly fed and stabled. It soon becomes much attached to those who look after it, and will follow it's keeper about simply for the pleasure of being with him.
