TIE o

About 8 years ago, while at din
ner with my family, | waz informed
that thar waZ a gentleman in the
parlor who mus see me imegiately
on very important Dizziness.
Fastening from the table, 1 found
myself in the presence of a plainly
dressed but very nervous man; who
informed me that he was canvass
ing mi distrikt for the sale of DIR.
Erastus Spignot's new work en-
titled the "Normal Circulashun Of
the Blood"
i at once informed the man that
/ did not want the work.
He then began a long account Ov
its value and Importance to every
human being, when i broke i'm upon
his e~lOquence by repeating "sthat i
did not want the book"
He continued bi telling me that
no library would be complete with
out it. Again i declared i'm the most
positive terms ''that i did not want
the work"
At this point the stranger seated
himself In . chair, and deliberately
drew the book in question out Ov
his satchel, and informed me that
no gentleman to whom he had Of
fered 1t had failed to subscribe.
Growing desperate j declared i'm
the most emfatik tone "that i would
not hev the book at any price.
Rising from his chair he took Oph
his overcOat, and, throwing it care
lessly on the sofa, struck an atti-
tude, and for ten minutes gave the
most glowing akount ov the circu-
lashun Ov the blood and the ana
tony Ov man that i ever listened to.
IOnce more assured him, i'm a be-
seeching manner, 'that j did not
want the book"
Seating himself again in the
chair, and wiping the drops ov per-
spirashun from his brow, he went
back to the days ov Adam and Eve,
and for halr an hour talked ez no
man ever talked before on the vari-
Gus diseases the human sistim was
subjekt to, closing up with a vivid
recital Ov the circulashun ov the
blood.
Again / insisted upon it that the
book would be ov no use to me, and
that i would not hev it.
Springing from his seat with his
book in his hand, and his eyes fash
ing fire, and his whole manner in
tense, he began to show me its kon-
tents, commencing at the title
page.
l saw at last that il was wuss than
madness to resist any longer, so i
subscribed for the book, consoling
myself with the refiecshun that if
ever ] had a book to sell miself, i
hev it sold 10y subskripshun.
The more i think ov it, / am de-
lifted with the pious energy and long
suffering ov the book canvasser,
that j wouldn't sell a book any other
way.
He is q man whom yu kant es-
.ape any more than yu kan your
OWN shaddo; he follows his victim
ike a ghost, and hangs aroud him
grinning like an undertaken.
The only way to get rid NV him is
u subscribe at once, and let him go
Tor the next phellow.
The shaving-sope man, and the
ife-insurance agent are very good
IN their way, but they don't com-
pare with the book-canvasser for
lively work any more than the PEN
i've cockroach does to the red-hot
They steal on yu, like a kat on a
mouse, when yu amt looking for
EN- ; and, like the fly in the spiders
web, the more yu try tn git out, the
yu git in.

OFFICE OMAHA DAILY Bee,
May 80, 1874
The last month Of Spring closes
with a brisk trade and an easy feel
ing in financial circles.
Notwithstanding the opposing in
fluence, with which Omaha has to
contend, the city is steadily pro-
crossing in mercantile prosperity at
a pace that will soon leave its other
competitors far in the real.
One more wheat crop will place
Nebraska at the head Of the wheat
producing States Of the West, and
Omaha, the commercial metropolis
of the State, will assume the leader
ship among the chief cities west of
the lakes, second only to Chicago
and Milwaukee.
