time. Your landlord wants you TO stay in his
house long as you pay your rent regularly, and
a respectable man woman yen expect and in
tend to make your payments regularly. Therefore,
your landlord wants TO keep your house always in
a satisfactory condition, and want you te help
him keep it

have good chance to get any other of our

simple movements:
Stand erect with arms raised above
the head; bend forward and try to
touch the loo without bending the
knees. Rise slowly to former position
and repeat ten times. Then stand erect
and a one knee up as close to the

the same with the other knee. Battle
the abdomen with alcohol every day.
