iPeddler Comes In A New Form A new version of the "horse-and-buggy" days when peddlers went around the country visiting households, has been developed by a department store which goes to the customer instead of waiting for the customer to visit the store. The new version of the "peddler" came in the form of a vending machine developed by industrial research. The machines have been set up in bus terminals, where customers cus-tomers can pick up any one of 18 items ranging from men's hose and playing cards to a baby's rattle, rat-tle, at prices ranging from 75 cents to $1.75.
