Pets Apartment Houses.

I'VE experience some OF the most provok-
ing incidents of the real estate business"
said an up town agent, dealing with peo-
pie with pets. Between having apartments
vacant and getting Objectionable tenants in
them we are often between the devil and
the deep sea. 1t is a curious fact that peo-
pie without children usually have some
sort of pet or pets While it is desirable to
get people with no small children, there are
children and children, you know and so
there are pets and pets. I've steered away
from the Scylla of children only to 20 to
pieces upon the Charybdis of a hooking
bird or terrier
Funny isn't it. how childless people will
get the noisiest creatures for pets? To take
the place of children, | presume. The gilt
edged tenant is the couple who have had
children, raised them and married them off.
There is no nonsense about that sort of
couple. Only they are awfully cranky
about other people Having been through
all Of that sort Of thing they have de-
sire to live the rest of their days in peace
and quietude, and they naturally object
to children and dogs and birds and any
thing that interfere~ with that idea. And
they dread a piano more than 7-year-old
boy. The newly married pair IS, of
matter of course. the most desirable They
have no pets but each other and bother
nobody and stand anything My idea OF
an earthly paradise is an apartment house
filed up with newly married couples. -
