Business Las been poor among the Hrdiio

q time as seventy-two hours But most
Of them have spared what time they could

continuously at prayer Mr. Bobbish, gray
and grizzled, replied:
There never was a man like it the May

Mayor Gaynor is it what say to the

Mr.. Bobbisn wore a white shawl over his
head the while he was away from COM

usually worn only on the Tischabov Fast
Day, once each year.
Mr.. Bobbish has been more thorough, but
only in that respect is he different from
hundreds of other members Of the United
Citizens Pedlers' Association, with head
quarters at No. 1O7 Forsyth street.
The Mayor has won their hearts, and if
sacrifices by them will hurry matters Mr..
Gaynor will soon be at his desk.
