Somo peddlers may bo honest enough but tho majority of them are, wo believe, dishonest. Their goods are of the poorest quality and tho good .housewife, who thinks she has mado a good bargain by paying a few cents less for an article than the regular storo price, will find in the end, that sho has made a poor bargain. Somo dishonest peddlers '"occntly swindled a few unsuspecting farmen lu East Pcnn township. The.y camo to the farmers' houses and left a package, saying that they would come again In about a month, and requested the farm ers to sign a paper. A few farmers signed tho paners. The peddlers never showed their facc3 again and the papers signed turned out to be notes on the bank for $39, which had to bo paid. If the peddlers wcro promptly arrested as they ought to be, .noboly would Lc swindled. One day a peddler called at Leopold Kclby's house, Sir. K. had also been swindled, and he gave tho peddler a sound thrashing; this Is not tho right way either. When a peddler comes around Just have hhu arrested . and the nuisance will soon be abated.
