Most Popular at All Markets, Chain Stores — The Peddler | The peddler greets me at my door, and he has things to sell, some dope to stain a kitchen floor, a patent dinner bell; but I can buy them at the store from J. -\ugustus Snell. The peddler has no interests here, he doesn’t pay the freight; he doesn’t chip in every year to keep the tax list straight; and so I say, “Please disappear,” and shoo him from my gate. It may be he sells better junk than Snell does at the store; but if I spend with him a plunk i never see him more, and if I find his goods are punk ’twill be no use to roar. But if at J. Augustus Snell’s I buy a quilt- ing frame, and find it isn’t wear- ing bells, its workmanship to blame, 1 seek that merchant where he dwells, and climb upon his frame. And he’ll produce an- cther frame, or else refund the cash; he can’t afford to win a fame for selling worthless trash; it’s up to him to play the game or see his business smash. And J. Augustus nobly stacks when boosting schemes abound, and J. Augustus pays his tax without a doleful sound, and joins the boys who sprain their backs fo make the wheels go round. The peddlers to our vil- lage trek and then they disap- pear,and little, little do they reck what problems we may fear; but J. Augustus is on deck all through the fateful year.
