die of the street, not far from Gansevoort
market. The stock Of the store" con-
sists of harness and saddler's hardware.
These articles arc hung upon non spikes
driven in the pole. The proprietor, who
Is also clerk, cashier and barker" carries
some of the stock on his person. Lighter
weight articles are around his neck. Our
rycombs, brushes and other articles are In
his pockets He holds a bunch Of whips
under one arm and carries one lash In his
hand. He circles about his store" cry
ing his wares to the passersby. There
are few streets In New York where there
is as much teaming as In West street, and
most of the trade that comes TO the tele-
graph pole is from teamsters.
What does he do when it rainsf" That
Is always the question Of those who notice
the odd place of business. The proprietor
shifts his stock across the street to place
which he patronises, and his patronage
paws the rent, but he does not shut up
shop on rainy days. Having stored the
bulk of his stock, he goes on a soliciting
iaunt among the shops, carrying q few
"side lines" like commercial agents of the
more pretentious class and these are sala-
