the ball rolling by reducing the prevail

and the result is he is having all the
work he can possibly do and taking
new orders daily. This had tendency
TO make hisoompetitors attempt TO stop
him, and they conceived the plan OF
condemning the astop box" used by Mr..
johnson. In fact II had been given ont
that the stop boxes used BY Mr., John.
son would be ordered taken out by the
