CAKI'V WILL BE FILLED, People Flock To The Best Blocks In Every City. Just ns soon ns the Holbrook brick is ready for occupancy there will be a rush for the rooms. Some of these have been leased since the foundations of the build ing were in and there is a strong yearning for the completion of the building. The upper floor will be devoted to offices entirely. Dr. Hartel, Dr. Holland, Dr. MacLnchlan, and Attorney Parker will be the occu pants and it is more than likely Dr. Rossiter will arrange to rent the only remaining suite in order to be with the other professionals. The ground floor will be occu pied by G. W. Overstrcet, plum ber, St. Johns Grocery Compatiyin the comer store while the remain ing store-room has been leased by a Portland party who asserts that he will add another barbershop to the two already here. The St. Johns Grocery Company has a lease upon its present store that will not expire for about a year but several offers have al ready been received by those wish ing to lease it. But the removal would be made even if the building wns to remain vacant. Occupants of a brick building possess a feeling of safety which is worth much. The Holbrook brick is a safe building and there is a great advantage in feeling that one's possessions are not in a fire trap which could be destroyed in the twinkling of an eye by a dropjed match or u discarded cigar. hvcry business man in the city E -A FEW- 3 rOrOrotvrtvyi'-vjj TMTVTvfO) (I t u n u , i THORNS The Mam.
