"Whether 'twould be better To puss on through the Rummage Sale Of the Civic Improvement Club Articles for which I have no more use, Such as clothing, furniture, Dishes, hafs and what not, Or to hoard these things Useless and room-taking, Dusbcolloetlng and Moth-begetting, in my home, Whether In attic, closet or storeroom?
