You See, It's This Way:
We came to town to buy goods
of our old friend, Wellington;
but he won't be ready for several
days. He is putting in a big
glass front, so that his patrons
can see just what kind of goods
- they are purchasing. The drum
mers say he orders nothing but
the best and buys for cash; so
his customers will get the bene
fit of the cash discount.
