Cobb. Awe about now {s the season of the year when the country buyer with the Missourt habit hits this prosperous and thriving burg. Back home in Keokuk they think he went East to Iny in his fall stock, and maybe pick up a few new ideas for livening the Epworth League meetings, But up along the G. W, W. the kind-faced philanthropists who drive cahe by night know ful: well he came on to be shown, and If somebody holds out on him any of the rea, warm stereopticon views of life in a great clty his | feelings will be deeply pained. You may have noticed, whenever tidings | go out that the Id has beep jacked up a few more notches for the sum> |mer, there's a heavy inflow of country buyers having Sunday-school cons | nections where they came from. ; | These days the patriot who does the welcome-to-our-fair-city turn for | the wholesale house certainly gets his contusions. When he gets to the | office at 9 o'clock A. M. the boy brings him in a card and says the gentle- | man has been waiting two hours, having arrived along with the janftor. | It 1s @ lovely cream-colored visiting card with bevelled edges, and a design in purple writing fluld showing a delight{ul bird of paradise with the name { | of Mr. Out-of-Town Customer done tn tasty script among the feathers of ff | the bird’s tall. So the official entertainer or gost puts a clea collar in his | pocket, wires his wife he won't be home for thnee days, spits on his hands ! | and goes forth to his fate. The country buyer comes trained to the minute and dressing the part. Before he {s out of the city Ilmits of his native place he has unlatched his white bow tle and thrown it out of the car window, stowed aft the gold badge the Bible Class gave him and snuggled into a waistcoat that would be regarded as a breach of ordinance {n Fort Smith. Then he asks the coon porter who owns the train to bring the wine card and touches off an almost Cuban cigar with a fat walst. He won't smoke any of the kind that smell Tike the insulation burning off of a tralley car until he gets back, , either. By the time he crosses the ferry from the Jersey side he has con- . tracted the absence frappy and cremy de menther habit and has a breafiy on him like a medicated lozenge. Down {!n Batan Rouge his conception of a apirited time is to go to an ‘Evening with Edison’ in the leotureroom’ of the First Presbyterian Church and hear the ‘Last Ravings of John Mo- Cullough” on a phonograph; but here nothing satisfies him but the real 4’ | paprika where the chorus comes out amd gives an imitation of a pink | centipede and a large lady in a little boy's bathing sult rides a bicycle into \8 lather. | For two weeks his only regular address is the number in his hat. He | picks out his goods early in the day so as not to keep them waiting too long for hinch up in the Soubrette Reservation. He gets to know more Broadway bar-keeps by their first names than a wardman does, and his feat become very tender from riding so much in hansoms. When be strikes | the edge of the Tenderloin they ring the dinner-bell so everybody will know the human commutation ticket ts about to be punched. He goes to bed | every morning about the time he would be getting up In Fort Wayne to | go down and open the store.
