Shake off this feeling of uncertainty. Go out to Welles- r - ley today. "Faint heart ne'er won fair lady" or built the home to shelter her.' An old pioneer the other day remarked to one ' of our salesmen: "Twenty years ago a real estate man advised me to buy real estate in what is now known as Portland told me this would be a great city some day. I didn't pay any attention to him. I let the opportunities slipone after the other. I have been letting .them slip the same way for 20 years. '' Now I am an old man and I 'haven't any thing much only the home I live in and if I had acted at once on the opportunities offered I would today be a millionaire. I just couldn't believe in the future. I couldn't see into the future farther than the end of my nose. It's too late now, but I can't help it." : . ..
