Augustus Snell. The peddler has no interests here, lie doesn't pay the freight; he doesn't chip in every year to keep the tax list straight; and so I say, "Flease disappear," and shoo him from my gate. It may be he sells bet ter junk than Sih-11 does at the store; hut if 1 spend with him a plunk, I'll never see him more, and if I find his sjoods are punk, "lwill be no use to roar.
