The Sewing Machine canvasser Is numerous,
frequent, aud ubiquitous. He Invades the sanc
tity of your dwelling with the freedom of mi old
friend, and with the air of one who has come to
stay. Sometimes ho proves "a blessing In dis
guise" as the sequel to my story will show. My
.aunt has long had a strong and outspoken avers
Ion to these modest missionaries, who retaliate
by sending every new and verdant canvasser to
tier house. Last week the familiar Sewing Much'
tne wagon baited at her door, not seeking a ens
toiner however, for the gentlemanly agent only
beggad to leave his machine until his broken
wagon conld be repaired. Womanly curiosity
prompted ber to examine tho machine In his
Absence, and the merits of tho "New High Arm
Davis" did the rest. She was pleased, and on
the agent's return begged him to exhibit tliom.-v
chine. "Would he sell It? No.lt was already
sold and would have been delivered but for the
broken wagon (?) He could, however. If she

She must have this Identical machine,"
And so the poor fellow was obllghed to leave the
machine and receive the money for It. If e won

and so happy In Its possession thatshe freely for-
