wanted TO move again. " 1t is no trouble to rent
house to a man ike that" added the agent, but
| il is more trouble to collect the rent"

of the city will move this week. This class is
apt to buy or rent houses in the autumn ON
returning from the country, and real estate agents

not do this they would lose the rent on
many houses from May 20 October or November,
while people IN society were out of town.
