    Share Share Post
    Long ago there were only a few shops in the country. They were called huckester shops. The shop-keepers of these shops didn't weigh any, they go all weighed by the towns persons whom suplied their goods.
    The people hadn't to buy much things long ago because they made most of of things at home.
