t
has become so great, that it has been decided to advance the price on lots in that
addition.
By comparing the prices at which lots in Rlvirslde Addition have been sell-,
ing, with the prices of similar property in other sections of the city, it will be found
that lots in Riverside Addition have been selling at too low a figure.
Before advancing the price, however, it has been deemed only fair to give due
warning to those who have been contemplating buying, but who have been- delaying
from time to time,-therefore
TAKE NOTICE
; that during the remsi :der ofttis month; (April); prices will remain the same as here
tofore but on the first day of May. there will be a general advance of 10 per cent in
4 ; : pices, there.ora all those who wish to take advantage of this advance must huv this.
