The Huckster Man.

Oh, do you know our huckster man?
His name Is Mr.. Brown.
And all the children think he is
The incest man in town.
Sometimes he rings little bell
To tell he's on the way,
But other times he Just calls out.
And then we hear him say:
"Ap-poles! Ap-poles! Ap-poles! 'Ta-toes!
;Ta-toes! Ap-poles! 'Ta-toes!'
He has a bright red wagon
And big and gentle horse,
And the wagons piled with barrels
Filled with things to eat, Of course.
And he never seems to mind bit
The children standing by.
We always run to meet him
When we hear his well known cry:
"Ap-polesi Ap-poles! Ap-poles! 'Ta-toes!
'Ta-toes! Ap-poles! 'Ta-toes!"
And then he says. Here. sonny;
I've been saving this for you.''
And down there comes an apple
Or a plum or maybe two.
Or. "6ister. how'd you like a peach"
He has gift for all.
No wonder that we children like
To hear our huckster call:
"Ap-polesi Ap-poles! Ap-poles! 'Ta-toesI'
'Ta-toes! Ap-poles! 'Ta-toes!"
