After the .'to einpiv hoses and mie box lid bail netted him kS.'id fnmi the broke and destitute crowd, he saw his ability as a salesman was greater than he had anticipated, so he 'brought out several alarm locks,, worth about $1 at any store, and proceeded to offer them fwr-$.r each. He fmind that, he only, had two clocks left and said he would sell them and the remainder of his valuable bargain merchandise only to those that had previously bought the empty boxes, l ie Sold the two clocks for and then placet! the $5 bac k into the 'clocks an I handed them out to the two buyers. At this stage, of the game his audience, and especially those that had invested in the empty boxes were sure that now was the time to invest $5 more into the "king of salesmen's" wares and clean up, thus making the Pied Piper the goat of the deal, but the king of salesmen had been in the game longer than his audience so he was prepared for anything that might happen. Having sold his entire stocK of alat-m clocks which consisted of two, lie sub stituted a fountain pen,- pencil and small pocket knife set, all made of a bone material and placed in a hand some ,.gold-bro.e paper box with it guarantee a foot .Square and a $10 tag on the inside, As he did not have any dher So item to sell he cut the price of the $10 sets to So. His customirs Were now on pins, afraid that his supply of these sets would be exhausted leforc they Could persuade him .'to accept their So for the outfit. He ignored all on-eomers except those having . the 'empty ?1 boxes, and as there were originally 'M of these but he confined his sales to them..: : After a little talk about what line merchandise the pen, pencil and knife sets were, he began to gather in the "fives". In each box. he placed the money, but was careful not to give out the box until he had .sold 11 of them. After; the fourteenth sale, he question ed', each -purchaser- and had them state that they were satisfied with their purcha:-e. Many were not, but weie afraid to., say no.

The man assured the salesman that he jeuld spare' the money and wanted to l'.ike the purchase. The Pied Piper .ok him to ki-s his money gcod-bye.
