wash-toob

Updated: July 3, 2026

"He says," exclaimed the woman, as if some other huckster were crying fish on the other side of the street "he says he lives in a wash-toob." "He's crazy!" ejaculated Mrs. Blaine, with an air that indicated "policeman" as plainly as if she had put her thought into words. A low murmur ran through the crowd of women, while the thin clerk edged toward the door. I saw there was no time to lose.
