There Is every indication that the
next few weeks will witness brisk
demand for all kinds of property in the
city proper. especially the Back Bay
section. Notwithstanding the state
ment that the Boston & Albany will
not have the cid Park-sq. station of

ident Mellen. the report has had ten
dency to enliven values and demand
for holding in that immediate sec
tion. The putting Of this valuable pro-
perty To use once more would prove
one of the greatest benefits 10 the city.
Property worth millions of dollars has
been lying idle in that vicinity for
many years, and the Improvement OF II
at this time would see one Of the
greatest booms that Boston has eXpe-
rienced for over 20 years. The taking
OF the old Park square station now for
a new CITY Hall would undoubtedly
have the backing Of many business
men. as we'll as large property owners

price that would prove advantageous
for the city, as II is considered that the
present City Hall could be sold, with
other property owned by the city that

building was completed. and this
would make the purchase In actual
money by the city considerably less.

Persons who intend TO buy clocks

price lists now being sent out by the
manufacturers show a substantial ad-
vance. At the office Of the clock COM

was said that the advances are general
and average about 10 percent. Many
retail dealers who have been selling
at cut-rate margins are likely to mark
up the figures to greater extent than
have the manufacturers. Increased
cost OF materials and labor are said TO
have made the increase necessary.

Another Shipment.

We will receive this week the second shipment of the Herrick Refrigerators The facts that these refrigerators are built upon scientific principles and cost no more than the old style boxes account for their popularity.
 They are made of solid oak, insulated with mineral wool, trimmed with the best of hardware. The cooling space for the amount of ice used is one-third more than the ordi- nary refrigerator. They have a perfect cir culation of dry air, which keeps the food bet ter and the ice longer. You can put most any kind of vegetable or fruit in them and the other food will not have any foreign taste or smell Your ice bill will be less and your food better if you buy the Herrick.
