Hi Ray,
Thanks again for taking the apartment. I left a few things that may be useful. The small fridge in the kitchen is only two years old and still works well. There is also a wooden tray on top of it and a clean tablecloth in the second drawer.
The tool kit under the sink belongs to the building, so please leave it there when you move out. The knob on the back-room door sticks a little, but a drop of oil will fix it.
My key is with the guard downstairs. Call me if anything is missing.
Best,
Ellen

The paper handkerchief was invented by accident. During the First World War one company made a soft paper to replace cotton in bandages. When the war ended, boxes of the material lay unused in a warehouse.
In the 1920s the firm sold it to women for removing face cream. Buyers, however, kept writing to say that they used the tissue for something else: they blew their noses into it and threw it away.
The company listened, changed its advertisements, and sales rose sharply. Today the paper handkerchief is sold in almost every country, and few users know it was first designed for a battlefield.
A shop compared four small tools that customers often buy together.
