moat five years and have alwuva
made It a point to koep as exact an

have always been able to llvo within
our means, and nave some monev

furnished a flat comfortably and we
both still had n small bank account
loft. A few years after a house In
tho city was left to myself and three
slaters. Wo bought one share and so
secured a clieaper and more com
fortublo placo to live In. Our aim now
la to buy tne otner two shares In
time.
