Away they sped with right good will, Through bush and brake, o'er plain and hill, But very soon the one call'd Joe Declared he could no further go. Jim's hurry would not brook delay, So like a shot ha sped away ; His journey and his business o'er, He took the road for home once more. When half way back he met poor Joe, "Walking along but very slow, Who when he saw that it was Jim, With rueful face thus questioned him: " Pray tell me friend how it can be, That you can walk so light and free, While I, with blisters on each toe, Have five-and-twenty mile 6to go ?" Quoth Jim, " The secret you shall Snow How I with ease and comfort go, Dame Nature's gifts I don't abuse, And Hemus always makes my shoes. We forget whether Jim wore a pair of our Men's Elastic Sides or Balmoral Boots at 12s 6d; but they both go well. His wife has kept up to him for^ years, and she wears our own make Kid Elastic Sides at 10s 6d. HEMUS'S STAR^OOT WAREHOUSE, Market Corner, Queen-street. 1,000 ■ T A" X D s HOMESPUN ALLWOOL, Is. 4b.
