Jurt why tbe metropolitan landlord prims low to gain is one of the secrets of the real estate business that outaid ma ma only juggle with meotally Another peculiar feature of the buri •cm is the way in which tbe tenant, who can put up a good bluff manage to enjoy all the comforts of an up to date homo without paying scarcely anything fe tbe privilege. I know one man here who doesn't ptj over S2OO a year for a S6OO fiat. He got behind in his rent, and than be jollied tbe janitor, who did tbe collecting. The janitor, in turn, smoothed down the landlord, and as a result tbe tenant got in deeper and deep er. Now be pays a month’s rent once frkAWhile and puts up such a bold front that lb gets a receipt on his promisee. In tbe same bourn is another tenant who pays $65 a mouth, but he shuts up his apartments for two months every summer and goes seaward. He flatly re fusm to pay rent while doing the grand, and the landlord hasn’t as yet done a thing to him. Still another high flier puts up $75 a month for tbe pick of tbe premises. in about tasrm«mM|U. now, but as yet care hasn’t carved any wrinkles on his broad brow.
