PRICES OF LOTS IN
!
CITY PARK
ABOUT TO BE RAISED
All inside lots in blocks 131 to 137 in ROSE CITY PARK, being that
section which lies on the upper plateau, just north of The Alameda,
between Hillis and Orwita avenues, will be raised in price from $410
and up, to $450 on April 1, 1908. These lots are located in the most
desirable part of ROSE CITY PARK, being near The Alameda, not
far from the carline, to be fully improved and easily worth a great
deal more than the figures at which they are now held. This is the
first announcement of raised prices that we have ever made, and is
significant to those who have contemplated purchase of property in
this excellent residence'section. The time to buy, therefore, is right
now. "

AN INVESTMENT
IN THE BONDS OF
OCEAN SHORE
RAILWAY CO.
IS CALCULATED
TO INTEREST THE
CONSERVATIVE
AND CAREFUL
BUSINESS MAN.
IF HE BUYS NOW
AT 92, HIS NET
PROFIT WILL BE
5V2 PER YEAR.
Every dollar he invests is secured by assets rep
resented by an actual cash investment of over
$4,500,000. The railroad is building; 34 miles
are in operation and earning good money; this
line is an imperative necessity; its right of way
constitutes a monopoly in the country that it
penetrates; marvelous development work is go
ing on just on the strength that this line will be
built. The company is incorporated for $5,000,
000, and is fully paid up. The leading investors
and business men of California have invested
heavily in the project, and a small number of the
bonds has been alloted to Portland. The price at
which they may now be obtained is $92. They
are 5 per cent bonds, par value $100, and at the
price quoted they net Sl2 per cent. For the in
formation of those interested, we will $end free
booklets and literature upon request by mail,
telephone or telegraph.
This investment has all the marks of being the
most substantia! rft'ered on the Pacific Coast in
many years.
