REAL ESTATE.
Gain in the City's Wealth nnd
Review of the Market.
AWell-Informed Agent Shews That San Fran-cisco iiMaking Bapid Progress— A
Big Purchase— Sales.
One of the best informed agents In thecity on realty and financial matters, doingbusiness onMontgomery street, handed thefollowing statement to The Call's realestate representative for pubircation, on theunderstanding that his name should not beused inconnection therewith.
The report lias been prepared with a greatdeal of thought and should prove of interestto all people who have the city's welfare atheart, nnd invaluable to every real estateagent :
The market Is both quiet and lively-quiet in small lots and in a general way,while the demand for good inside businessproperty continues unabated. The demandfar exceeds the supply in that class of prop-erty, and ifholders would only make slightconcessions a large volume of businesswould be done in short order. While thewhole busiuess world seems financially em-barrassed San Fraucisco alone remains un-disturbed. At the close of the eleventhmonth of the year itis well to look over thebooks and see what gain if any we havemade. Appended are a few figures:

Erom the foregoing it cau be seen at aglance that while we are not having anybooms, we are very prosperous, and thecroaker who tells you that we are nearing acrash and realty Will drop 50 percent Isbuilding his hopes on a very flimsy founda-tion, for realty is after all the true and onlybasis for security or investment.

142,857.
Some Curious Properties of TheseFigures and an Explanation.
Arecent number of the Engineering Newscontained a letter of inquiry from an oldsul>scriber concerning the curious iropertiesof the number 142,857 that was briefly men-tioned in an old number of that journal.The peculiarity ot the number is that mostof its products have the same digits, thoughthey differ ia order. This willbe seen bythe following:
142,8.r.7Xl_. _42.**rf.7142.857X2= 285,714]42..557X,*J= 428,571142.857X4= 571,428142.857X5= 714.285142.857X8= 857.142142,857X7-= 999,899142,857X8 =1,142,850
Itwillhe seen by the above that the onlyserious break in the rule is when the num-ber is multiplied by 7, which gives everydigit the same. In the Inst series by addingthe first and last digits the regularity is pre-served, thus: lxti=7.Itmay Ire added, says the inquirer, that
by continuing "in this way (adding ttie firstdigit of each product to the last one) thesame peculiarity is seen to obtain on tbehigher multiples, thiisr
142.857 XU__1, 285,713and 285,714=142,857X2
142.857X10=1,428.577nnd 428.571=142,857X3
142.857X11=1.571,427and 571,428 =142,857X4
142,5;»7X12=1,714.284and 714.2«5 =142,85JX5
142.857X11=1, 999.908nnd M09,0!)n=142,857X7
142,857X15=2.142.855aud 142.857 -.142,657X1
142,857X10 =2,285.712and 286.714=142,857X2
142.8:. 7X22^=3,142,854.•nd 142.857=142,857X1
Or so on each increase of 7 in tne rii'ilti-plier briugs us arouud to the sum* point,thus:
142,857X57=8,142.840and 142,857-142,857X1
In the issue of the Engineering News ofNovember 221 appears a brief note by A. M.a'Armit, Second Lieutenant, Engineers, U.S. A., who says: The properties mentionedof the number 142,8.">7 are not peculiar tothis number but belong to all completerepetends, that is, tliose repetends whichcontaiu a number of digits, one less tlianthe denominator of the generating fraction.
The number 142,857 is the circulating deci-mal 1-7, aud, beiiif*complete may be gen-erated with digits in the same order fromany point, taking for (ho generating fractionthe number ofsevenths remaining at thatPoint ;thus 1-7, 3-7, 2-7,G- 7, 4-7, 5-7 are tlia re-mainders at the different digits, and any oneof the fractions will produce the same suc-cession of digii.s beginning at its own. Aninspection wiileasily show why multiplica-tion, except by 7or its multiples, does notproduce any change of digits. O.her tnuu-bers possessing the same properties are:

They Are nn Illnstrntton of the Tendencyor the Time* Toward Little YVat.ts.- and Weik 80-lien.
Auy oue who vMrs tho srt museums miwbe struckwrm Ibe fact that the reet of all the ancient statuesseem very lerge. They do seem «o, but Itwill beround that for symmetrical perfectloa these feetcould not be better, aud yet tbe feet i>f tbe averageman or woman to-day are much smaller tbaa Inaucleut times.
One might naturally aak. Why Is tblsT Tne an-swer is not difficult. Modern enstom and fashionhave contracted feet to tbeir present small propor-tions: shoes have taken tbe place of sandala. In-deed, ItIs onlyone illustration of many, of whatadvanced civilization and fashion do. The waistsof women lvancient days 'i'ere not so small as inthe present age ofcorsets. Tbe bealth of women Inancient times was better tbau inour present day ofsocial demands, household cares aod hurried living.Women are weaker than tbey once were. Tbey reeldepressed, blue, weak and lauguld,where they wereonce bright,strong and active. Such modern troub-les require tbe most advanced treatment and tbebest physicians, and most scientific aurborlties ofthe present day declare tbat pure stimulant* areanecessity lvmost lives. ItIs a sigulflcant tact, how-ever, Inconnection with this statement, that oulypure stimulants are over of value, while impure aroan actual barm.
Tbe best and purest of all stimulants now knownro the public is Duffy'sPure Malt Whisky. Itis, in-deed the onlymedicinal wnlskyknown to the pro-fessions or the public. Ithas been tested by yearsof use, antl is far more popular to-day than ever be-rore in its history. Ithas man Imitators and theusual jealousies which merit always brings, andhence when unscrupulous dealers ofler any ottorarticle, they should be given to understand thatouly Duffy'scan be used.
