Nothing is known of the food of

answered question. Sponges are said
to have few natural enemies. The
rate of growth under natural, undis

Ever
hear of
Hose
City
Park?
Rose City Park is one of
Portland's choicest subur
ban residential districts.
Four years ago Rose City
Park lots could be pur
chased for $200. There
weremossbacks, pessimists
and their like who said all
kinds of things against
purchasing "way out there
at Mt. Hood" but today
same $200 lots are valued
at $1200 to $1500 and hun
dreds and hundreds of peo
ple have made three, four
and five hundred per cent
on their investment. And
property two and three
miles beyond Rose City
Park is selling for more
money than those original
lots did in Rose City Park
four years ago. This is
only one example out of
thousands which could be
given showing the advisa
bility of investing in choice
property when it is first put
on the market at introduc
tory prices.
Millerst
is so close to the very heart
of Dallas that the values
there will rise much faster
than ordinarily.
Unlike Rose City Park,
Millerst is now surrounded
by improved property
which is valued at much
more than Millerst lots are
selling for.
Then, too, we have put the
terms of purchase at
$10 DOWN
$10 PER MONTH
which makes it possible to
purchase and pay for your
lot almost before you know
it.
Right now the prices are
$125 to $175 per lot. Buy
today.
Prices advance 10 per cent

In a large city w ho would like a posi

mer vacation. Our friend, wno is
strong and rigorous and willing to
work, seemingly feels that, entirely
aside from what be may receive In
wages, the experience which he will
get during the summer, coupled with
the wholesome outdoor life, will be well
worth while, and we are Inclined to
take the same view. It would be a
godsend to thousands of city lads if
they would plan to do just as tbla
young man Is expecting to do, and tula
Is especially true of those who are nona
too robust The summer's work would
give them lame backs and arms, but
would also cultivate ravenous appe
tites and would harden their muscle
and tone up their whole system. Be
