Peter Thorsen, with Tarbox & Co.,
st. Paul, accompanied by a little boy,
has been ruStling for trade around
Osakis, this week. Pete has become
great fisherman, and can tell some ter
rible fish stories without cracking a
smile. Some of the boys have dubbed
him Pickerel Pete.
Paul, has been making towns west of
st. Cloud, this week. One of those
smiles is good for a piano every time.
Ed McGaffey, with Decker Bros, st.
Paul, was making Fergus Falls, Thurs
Gay. Ed is one of the smallest men on
the road in stature, but in sales he is
up among the clouds. One of his sam
pie grips is made a little large, and
when he runs out of mileage, he gets
into the grip and has himself checked
to his destination.
Billy Doble with Lindekes, Warner e.
s., st. Paul, is breaking in Duncan in
great shape. He was making him do all
the work at CrookSton and Grand Forks
this week If he can instill little of
his gaul into him, Duncan can graduate
at once.
Harry Pitts, prominent western
traveller, since shaving off his mustache,
looks great deal like certain presid-

Forks. Harry is often questioned about
church matters in north Dakota now.

Frank Gravel and II. J. Thorson, two
prominent travellers, are soon to start a
horse hospital at Crookston. They

appropriate one of doctor.

men were visible at Grand Forks, horse
back riding. Among them were John

were veg careful to select line of
