But the chief Of all Japanese supersti-
tions, and probably the most universal, IS the
belief in the power Of the fox to do harm, and
many are the mysterious happenings and
mischievOus prankS attributed to Br er
Fox" He bewitCheS men and things, and
when anything goes wrong the blame IS la1d
to the power of the fox. But IN spite OF his
bad reputation the fox is considered the
trustv servant of Inari, hero and deity OF
old Iapan. and even now the ShrlneS OF Inar1
are graced by images of the fOx-thOugh 1t
may be that the people worship HIM through
a sense of fear and as a sort OF prOpItiatOTy
precaution against his pranks.
The designing fox often takes the form OF
a fair maiden in order to play tricks upon the
unsuspecting wayfarer, and beckonS hlm on
until he falls into some ditch or IS lost on the
mountains. 1t IS usually at night that the
fox goes out TO deceive, and those who have
met with such adventures say that the only
way one NAV know the difference between
real maiden and a fox lady is that the latter
IS clearly diStinguishable even on the dark
est night, even to the stripes or patterns on
her robe.

PUBLIC L|KESLOTS
IN NEW ADDITION
Good Demand for Residence
Sites in Tracts Recently
Annexed to City.

General realty business for the past
week has been quiet There has been q
strong undercurrent Of inquiry and an
excellent sale OF home and building
lots. There has been, however a
marked absence OF large deals and
nothing to distinguish the market be-
yond the usual routine business. In the
new additions the demand for lots has
been fairly strong and a number of
purchases have been made for invest
ment purposes
This has been especially true of the
east bench additions. University
Heights, Park Crescent, Liberty
Heights and the property farther south
In Highland Park 1t is noticeable that
activity has been greatest in those sec
lions where building is going on. Con-
tects are driven to death getting out
plans for new homes. About fifty
homes will be erected In the near flu
ture IN Highland Park and it is pro-
posed to begin the construction of
large number of new residences In
Liberty addition
The north bench has shown consld-
cradle activity in home building also,
and fully twenty new houses will be
under way soon in that locality In
other sections Of the city building is
going on rapidly in scattered districts
Apparently, there is an excellent influx
u uSNCOulCIS " CITY ana IuoS6 all
require homes. A significant feature
OF this building and of the purchasing
being done for homes IS the prices
which purchasers are willing to pay.
New homes sell for different prices,
OF course, all the way from 81 900 to
$4,000, but most OF the homes Sc
cured are within the $4,000 mark and
the general run Of new homes will cost
about $500. It has been estimated
that the number of new houses now
under course of construction will ag-
gregate in value close TO half million
dollars, and that plans now under way
will almost double that amount.
Under these circumstances the quiet
market at the present time can be re-
garded only as a lull. and there should
be q strong move in the near future in
real property of all kinds. Many deal
ers report several large deals now I'M
der way and II is known that several
large investors are looking about for
opportunities to place their money. The
influx of new people indicated by the
