Bugs" Raymond Signs
\ With Manager McGraW

NEW YORK, Jan. 27.-Thoroughly
dried out and with the taste for Demon
Rum eradicated from his system-as he
says-"Bugs" Raymond has sent his
signed contract to Manager McGraw,
of the Giants.
From his sojourn at the Institute at
Dwight, H., Raymond now says that
even the sight of the accursed cup is a
shock to him. With all the solennity of
a deathbed confession, the erratic twirl-
er confdes to McGraw that his face is
toward the rising sun and away from
the sweeping latticed door. McGraw is
confident that Bugs really has cut
it out, but the New York fans oft re-
galed with similar yarns, will have to
be shown.

Land of PuupueO
ManOa Valley

Since we began selling lots in this.
land We have learned a thing or two:
First: That the real demand is for
moderate size house lots-and in &C
cordance with our suggestion the own
er has sub divided; the two large lots
into twelve smaller ones containing
from $4,000 to 10000 square feet; Still
good sized lots!
Second that the lots in this land
come pretty near selling themselves:
The reason? Because the lots are
not remnants nor undesirables left
over after the pick, but are the real
choice locations. This is easily prov
ed by visit to the land. Let us show
you
