Thank you very much for your escort," she added, turning to the two representatives of the Protective League. "My name, by the way, is E. Eliot. I am a real-estate agent and my office is at 22 Braston Street. You might mention it in your report." The little car stood waiting, surrounded by a group of admiring children. Its owner stepped in briskly, backed around and received her passengers.
Sondheim that travels for the Krackajack Kitchen Kutlery Ko.?" "I am not! I'm Mr. Babbitt, the real-estate broker!" "Oh, excuse me! Oh, of course. You mean here in Zenith." "Yep." With the briskness of one whose feelings have been hurt. "Oh, sure. I've read your ads. They're swell." "Um, well You might have read about my speeches." "Course I have!
That particular Basswood Junction was just startin' a daily, the kind the real-estate men and the local congressman have to support or go out of the business. Their editor had been raised on a weekly, and had been used to goin' to sleep at eight o'clock in the evening. The rumor spread that a metropolitan journalist had fallen out of a balloon into their midst.
You may take sufficient water to run your trains, to fill your tanks, to use in any way in connection with your business of transportation, and nobody will object to that; but when you undertake to divert a whole river to irrigate lands in order to sell them, you go too far. That is the business of a real-estate company, and not of a railway company."

Rogers had great hope and an exuberant imagination, but the most he saw for himself was an income of five thousand dollars a year, and a good house, unencumbered, with a library and a guest-room. In addition, he expected to own a horse and buggy.
He gets half a dozen twenty- thousand-dollar fees every year, and all he has is strictly old- fashioned probate and real-estate practice and a little of this new-fangled railroad business. My great regret is that I didn't stick to regular trade instead of going after easy money. Who's Gottlieb now? Just a police-court lawyer, when he might be arguing before the Supreme Court of the United States!
I had the evidence propped up against the front of our real-estate office 'Sacred to the Memory' of four of our leading citizens so I jailed 'em. But that's all the good it did." "Couldn't convict, eh?" Blaze lit his cigarette for the third time. "The prosecuting attorney and I wasn't very good friends, seeing as how I'd had to kill his daddy, so he turned 'em loose.
The best houses in town are going up along that stretch just within the old limits. And a house there could be turned into money at any time." Roger, as a practical real-estate man, naturally put convertibility before domesticity. Marshall also canvassed the matter with Belden.
Jewish carpenters, house-painters, bricklayers, or instalment peddlers became builders of tenements or frame dwellings, real-estate speculators. Deals were being closed, and poor men were making thousands of dollars in less time than it took them to drink the glass of tea or the plate of sorrel soup over which the transaction took place.
