At the fair or training of troops, or other festivity, he would peddle candy and cakes, home-made, or sometimes cherry rum, and by the end of the day would be a dollar or two richer than at its beginning.
You know Christmas or Valentine's day, it's all right to surprise people, even if you have to 'most nearly deceive them." And so with no qualms of their honest little hearts, the three started off gayly to peddle their dainty wares for the cause of charity.
"All right, Peddle, I can find my way about," said Doggie, dismissing the old butler and his wife after a little colloquy in the hall. "Everything's in perfect order, sir, just as it was when you left; and there are the keys," said Mrs. Peddle. The Peddles retired. Doggie eyed the heavy bunch of keys with an air of distaste. For two years he had not seen a key.
A ragged, bearded, unkempt elderly man in red shirt and frayed overalls, a repellent fell hat pulled low over his brow, reclined on the floor at the end of the bar, his back against a barrel. Apparently he slept. A flash of remembrance from the Montague girl's talk identified this wretched creature. This was what happened to an actor who had to peddle the brush.
The first steps had not even been taken to send the uniform to the cleaners, and soon Peddle reappeared carrying it over his arm and the heavy pair of munition boots in his hand. "These too, sir?" he asked, exhibiting the latter resignedly and casting a sad glance at the neat pair of brown shoes exquisitely polished and beautifully treed which he had put out for his master's wear.
He made you a small paddle himself." "Well, he won't let me." "Did John tell you why?" "He just won't let me. He says I can't peddle all alone by myself till I c'n swim'n dive real good. I wanna peddle all alone by myself like them." He pointed to two canoes in the distance, each propelled by a lone figure. "Well, Thomas, can you swim as well as Uncle John?"
Cerizet had reached the Market without finding any solution to that problem, when he was roughly shaken out of it by a heavy blow in the back. Turning hastily, he found himself in presence of Madame Cardinal, an encounter with whom, at a spot where she came every morning to get fish to peddle, was certainly not surprising.
Welborn could go right on training these bruins and peddle them through an ad in Billboard for a sure two hundred smackers, surely by Thanksgiving " "Two hundred nothin's," retorted the wary Fisheye, who was not to let a fancy price go by without protest. "Thar's no bar in the world wuth a hundred dollars. Why up in the Yallerstone, they offer to give 'em away!" "Sure they do, or did last year.
She doesn't interest me, one way or the other." "She seems to interest Bob a whole lot," Al said maliciously. "He rode over to see her yesterday. She wasn't home, though." Senator Warfield seemed unmoved by this bit of news, wherefore Al returned to the main issue. "Do I get a free hand, or don't I?" he insisted. "They can't be let peddle talk not if I stay around here."
And you'd better peddle something insurance, or lightning rods, or 'The Royal Gall'ry of Po'try 'n Art' or " "'Life of the James and Younger Brothers. That ought to sell well with the Rutherfords," suggested Roy satirically, trying to rise to the occasion. "Jess Tighe and Dan Meldrum don't need any pointers from the James Boys." "Tighe and Meldrum Who are they?"
