FEAR
Suggested also to those who fear dire results in the
Coming Campaign

Of the bugbear business is 10 march

bear or an incubus tagged is tanned.
Often IT is destroyed utterly.
The doctors say now that a large
share OF our physical Ills are due 10
fear-that fear actually engenders
poisons in our bodies. and that these
poisons are as real and as effective
as though they came from bottles with
skull and crossbone labels on them.
So much the more reason why We
shouldn't be afraid, for We poison
ourselves when we do.
When you feel fear taking posses
sion OF you, meet II squarely: show ::
up for what it really is. II 1t is well
grounded, its terrors will be lessened.
II 1t is unfounded 1t will be laughed

GOSSIP ABOUT
REAL ESTATE
Few Houses In Market al
Present Dealers Say.

Chief among the real estate hap
penings of interest is the announce
ment Of the sale at Raritan Manor,
situated at Fords, placed on the mar
ket by Charles Safran, of South AM
boy, and Max Kreielsheimer, of 1873
Smith street, this city. The tract
is directly opposite the Bloomfield
mansion and considered one of the
most desirable home building sites In
this vicinity. The promoters and
agents state that the sales have
been heavy, to date, and with clear
weather promised, expect to clean
up" considerable of the property by
quick sales over thee week end. The
lots sell for $500 up and are re-
stricted.
Despite the big jump in tax rate,
local dealers are swamped with ap-
peals from outside sources for resi-
Dental sites in Perth Amboy. The
spectators and home seekers are
very DESTROYS Of placing money out
on local property, or become resi-
dents of this city. 1t is said that
there is not a single improved prop
erty on the market at the present
time, save a few which are held at a
high figure by the selling agents.
Much speculation can be heard or
