w Ings ot the week s business were
made last night. The aggregate
for tha last flvs days was 1 881,
which exceeds the amount for
any other five successive days in
the history of tho office. Tha
number of Instruments recorded
wis 659.
The recording; department Is
regarded as ona of the beat In
dexes of the volume of real es
tate business. It wilj therefore
be surprising to many to learn
that tha high water mark for a
five day period was reached dur
ing the week Just closed.
The best day of the five was -yesterday,
when $154.15 was
taken In for recording Instru
ments. This is not the highest
figure for one day. however, as
the office has several times ex
ceeded this amount for a single
day.

How we'd like to see the army of GAMBRINUS drinkers
march into this place and see how we make the beer that makes
them so full of red-blooded health!
What a robust, red-cheeked, sturdy lot they'd be!
Remember, Shakespeare tells us that "Good digestion waits
on appetite, and health on b6th." r4
Beer-drinkers are those who accomplish things, because good
digestion and sound, healthful sleep furnish energy to do wonders.
No purer beer is possible. GAMBRINUS is made with the
.. utmost care, and the result is the most healthful and pleasant
tasting table beer to be had. 1
The best hops obtainable, the richest malt, the purest. of water
(from .a well of great depth on our own premises) and the highest
skill in brewing combine to produce this perfect brew. Then we
always age GAMBRINUS thoroughly and it never causes bil
iousness or tastes sharp and bjtter.
r -
Phone the Brewery, tell us where you live, and whether you want pint or quart bottles.
Well see that you're supplied with the beer that has been for over thirty-one years "the favorite family beer of Portland.
