Some Thrifty Wife
Will Want This
I have a well furnished apartment house in this
city that in addition to five modern living rooms oc
cupied by the family is bringing in an income of $100
per month. -
The property is in first class condition. No va
cancies in this hcose, generally a waiting list.
" Investigation will show that considering the
steady income very little personal attention is re--'.-quired.
" .'V.;v '
: Some thrifty wife can soon own a property that
will augment the family income just about double
the amount the average thrifty husband is able to
produce.
A good small five or six room dwelling will be
considered as part payment. The balance can be ar
ranged on reasonable terms. ,
Cail at office and see the photograph of the
property and if you are a hustler and really want
something good you will be interested in knowing
the details.
