'rpHEN YOU'LL EEMEMBEB ME. When other Boots and other Shoes, Have not been wearing well, And, by the language that you use, 'Tis plain there's been a sell, There may perhaps in Buch a scene/ Some recollection be Of Boots, wh'ch have much better been, Then you'll remember me. When Soles grow thin, and Uppers light, Of Shoes you once did prize, And understandings are a sight, Unsightly to the eyes; When broken Boots shall wear a mask—l A patch—you'll grieve to see, In such a moment I but ask, . That you'll remember me— HEMUS' *** STAR *** BOOT DEPOT, Top of Queen-street, Auckland. OTJE LAST is a Ladies' Kid Boot, with fashionable and plated heel, at 10s. Gd. $ pair .'How can this be done ?
