A PEDDLER's JOKE.

It Had Sharp Turn That Took All
the Fun Out of 1t. ~
One day peddler Of tinware stopped
at country house in New England
and, leaving his horse and wagon at
the gate. went to the door, where a
big woman with a rather pleasant
face met him. He told her what he
had for sale and succeeded In dispos.
ing Of half a dozen articles to her.
Then she said that she had not money
enough to buy more.
"Well. ma'am." said the peddler, arm

woman.
The peddler saw at least a dozen
children, all small, about the house
and the yard, and he suddenly thought

woman.
"You seem to have plenty of chill
dren." he said. maybe you might sell
me one of them and take the pay in
tinware."

man.

bargain: take your pick of the lot"
The peddler was surprised that his
joke was working so well, but he kept
very serious face, and. selecting a
very bright looking little fellow OF
six years. he took him up and put him
on the seat of the wagon and then
gave the woman $40 worth OF such
articles as she wanted

To see New York city from the PaH-

facts concerning these towering
