Some years ago while | was staying
at a small town in Michigan, a large
man travelling with his wife and young
son in a fine carriage, took quarters at
the hotel.
During the several weeks he was
there, ! never saw him speak a dozen
words TO anyone, although he was
constantly in the hotel office.
He smoked the choicest cigars, and
several of them a day. Should the
landlord or any of the guests address
him. they would be rewarded by a
mere grunt or monosyllable, and his
wife was equally reticent. Whether
he was a grand duke in disguise, a
horse thief or a bank robber, no one
was able to guess.
Every afternoon his handsome team
and carriage were brought to the hotel
entrance, and he and his family would
take a long ride into the country.
After the silent man had been there
Just a week two strapping big men
called to see him Saturday evening
and remained until Monday morning.
Each carried what they called a Pat

DEEP INJUSTICE TO BOSTON
Real Size of the City Is Misrepre-
scented by Figures OF the
Census.

The census figures just published
show q population for Boston Of $685.
5qS But what Boston? Not the BoS-
ton comprised in the metropolitan wa
fer system, or the metropolitan sewer
age system. or the metropolitan park
system. 1t is obviously only the Bos-
ton that sleeps here O nights, says
the Globe.
The city of London shows a popu'
lation of $1,000. But what London is
that? it is a small, circumscrlDed area
that nobody ever thinks OF as the real
London that spreads its great body out
over so many districts. Speaking IN
these narrow terms, Boston Is much
more than 20 times larger h "a Lon
don.
All other great American cities show
figures of population which are real.
Boston. alone shows figures which do
not represent by half her real popula-
ton. Practically no Chicagoans live
| outside of Chicago, no Philadelphlans
outside of Philadelphia, no st. Louisi-
ans outside of st. Louis, and New York
has gathered in substantially all her
people save those that sleep in New
Jersey.
The cities and towns comprising the
METROPOLITAN district, or, as it is often
called. Greater Boston, show very large
gains in the census figures, and give a
population of nearly a million and a
quarter. which very properly may be
accepted as the real population of the

G~ood-by."
After starting on again he would
take a five-dollar bill from one of mis-
vest pockets and would lay it away
with other bills in his trousers pock-
ct saying: Easy money, easy money"
At the end of each days delivery
they would return to the farmers
homes for more Founders, and in the
evening the cash was counted on the
table, in the presence of the family,
even the agents themselves becoming
very enthusiastic.
They talked almost necessarily of the
fortune they could make if they only
owned the state of Michigan in the
patent. and said to the farmers: IF
you can buy this territory, or any ter
| ritory in the invention, you can make
more money in one year than in ten
/ years at farming. Then came the sug-
gestion that if the farmer would buy
it he, the agent, would like to work
for him, on commission. as he didn't
like his present employer, personally,
although he was a straightforward,
honorable man.
BY the time each agent had deliv-
cred his 100 Founders and had laid
out on the farmers table $500 in 500
piles, the two brothers-in-law were
ripe for a trade. They were anxious
20 oa into ~, rtn orchir, ond cac,,ro 4 no
patent rights for the whole state.
So it was arranged that they should
meet the main CRATER at the hotel. In
no time he bargained with them to
let them have the entire state tor
$24, 900, having figured it out to their
entire satisfaction, how they could
have their money all back, and more
inside of a year, if they would only
adopt plans which he laid out to
push it.
He would take their farms, at 500
per acre, to close the deal; the one
who owned the farm of 120 acres could
pay his half with his farm, whereas tie
one who owned but 100 acres would
be obliged to raise $4,000, for which
he proposed to give his individual
note. This the old CRATER coolly re-
fused. Determined to make the deal,
however, the farmer arranged for the
cash, through his wife's father, who
m%ortgaged his farm.
These farmers, proud of their pur-
chase, and apparently under the i'm
preston that all their neighbors and
friends enyied them their good luck,
Immediately advertised a public alc-
ton of all their farm implements,
stock, ETC., and announced that they

In the evening at home the young
man would have a great deal to say
about how the farmers took to the
clothes FOUNDER, and what q fine
money-making business 1T was. q
-canvasser had taken pains to explain.
that each FOUNDER sold for five dollars,
though it cost only 35 cents manufac-
tured in quantities.
Finally, the %canvasser in h west
part of the county, happened IN night
at supper to mention that his firm had
another agent in the east part of the
county. who was stopping with
Indeed" said tho farmer, that
nan is my brother-in-law; his wife,
and my wife here are sisters
The following Saturday evening each
c%anvasser announced to his farmer
that he was going to the county seat
to report to his employer, n would
return Monday morning.
Knowing that the brothers-in-law
met at the home of their wives parents
nearly every Sunday, the canvassers
had it figured out that they would lave
a chance to talk over the wonderful
success of the clothes FOUNDER men.
In this they were correct, and on re-
turning for business Monday morning
each observed that their respective
farmers were much interested, so much
so that they made inquiry as to the
price of county rights.
Each csnvasser of curse assumed
to know little about that, but in an
unconcerned way, referred his ques-
toner to Mr.. -, at the - house, IN
the county seat, who owned the state
of Ohio in the patent and who would
give them all necessary information.
The fact that the farmers had he
come interested, gave the canvassers
opportunity to tell what a fine money
making business it was, and to fur
Their demonstrate this point by an
~nouncing that 200 of the clothes pound
ers were at the freight depot. AS
each anvaSser had about 100 Or1ers
to fill, they arranged with the farm
ers to drive to town with them to get
the Founders, after which the farm
er's son and the neighbours boy drove
the teams while they made the deliv-
cries. At each house the young man
was instructed to remain in the wagon
while the delivery was made. The
CRATER, after delivering a FOUNDER.
would mark a cross in his book next to
the name of the party receiving it, and
in leaving would say in a voice, audi

and journeyed on foot, with their
trousers tucked into their rubber boot
tops.
It developed later that the two men
were canyasserS, and were working on
salary for the Main CRATER" as we
shall call him.
The scheme was worked as follows:
Two farmers, who were brothers-in-laW,
were selected as dupes. One OF them
owned 100 acres of farm land, with a
new house and barn, and the other
100 acres upon which were a CON-
Portable house and barn. One lived
west of the town and the other east.
One of the canvasserS arranged with
one of these farmers for board, while
the other canvasser made his head
quarters with the other farmer. Once
settled one of them negotiated with his
landlord for the services of his son
and a horse and buggy with which to
nva while the other made similar
ARRANGEMENTS with the son OF a near
neighbor of the farmer who boarded
him.
Inc pdISul -ClOtuSo pouLoOi 0ho
cleanser was made entirely OF wood.
It was constructed exactly as was the
O~ld-fashioned clothes FOUNDER, of u
grandmothers' days, shaped hoop-sklrt
fashion. In the center OF the lower
mart, a good-sized hole was chiseled
out. extending upwards, about eight
inches, where small counter holes were
bored. interesting the large one, so
that when the clothes were being
nounded the hot suds would be forced
by suction up into the FOUNDER, and
passing out through the side holes
would. they claimed, separate the dirt
from the clothing and leave it perfect
" clean-all by the one process OF
rounding. instead of the old way OF
first pounding, and then scrubbing.
It mattered little, however, whether
the FOUNDER did it's work satisfact3r-
lily.
When calling at the home of a farm
err the vas would instruct the
Young man, accompanying him, to re-
main in the buggy while he went in
and made the canvass.
While standing in the doorway,
with order book in hand, talking to
the farmer or his wife, he would say,
in a loud voice: well, | am very
much Obliged to you, and am sure
that you will find our washer the I'm
est thing you ever used"
On returning to the buggy he would
tell the young man how easy it was to
procure that order, and thus they
would continue all day, taking orders
at every house, scarcely ever missing
q single one.

Egyptian. And it came to pass,
when his master heard the words OF his
wife, which she spake unto him, saying,
After this manner did thy servant to me;
that his wrath was kindled. And Joseph's
master took him. and put him into the
prison, a place where the kings prisoners
were bound; and he was there in the prison.
But the Lord was with Joseph, and showed
him mercy, and gave him favor in the sight
of the keeper of the p~rison."-Gen. 1872,
1921.
