The BrlUntlios, among those ac
qnainted with its merits, needs no
words of praise. It has stood the test
for 100 years, and tho last and ninth
edition was only completed in 1889, as
any ono may ascertain by consulting
the twenty fourth volume, The fact
that the publishers were over ten years
In the prepiration of this edition and
that leading scholars in every countiy
were employed, should be a satisfactory
guarantee to its greatness But Time

supplement in the back of each volume
furnishes the biography of living men,
beside historical, scientific and statisti
cal matter, bringing tho work down to
date. The full set is delivered on the

a brisk trade in the building. Not only
will there be many new edifices reared,
but many persons are contemplating
extensions to the homes which they
have already erected. Besides, there
are very few desirable houses that are
vacant, and landlords who expect to
derive any revenue from their proper
ties an beginning to realize that only
the better class of houses are profitable
tnd they are being governed accord
ingly."
Inese words coming from such a
source spsuk well for the future growth
of this portion of the city. Air. Spruks
said that the average annual business
done in lumber and building is $125,
000. Another Pioneer Gone.
