ally rosy face. / think 1 should have blushed
with the guilty conscience of a Peeping Tom as

I discovered. first, a small bunch of dress
goods samples: and two or three of them were
really rich and charming bits of fabric. Then /
found dollar hill and two quarters. and a hair

no token of the owners identity in any of these
trifles: so I went further and fshed out a tally
