T~N OLD STORY RErMORAL'D., Two men a journey had to go (The one was Jim, the other Joe), - The distance' two score miles and ten, And fifty long* miles^back again. Away they specl'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 he sped away; His journey and his business o'er, * He took the road for home once mora. 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 questiou'd 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 fivo-and-twenty miles to go t" Quoth Jim, " The secret you shall know How I with ease and comfort go, Dame Nature's gifts I don't abuse, A_id Hemus always makes my shoes. . We forget whether Jim wore a pair of our Men's Elastic Sides or Balmoral Boots at 12s Cd, but they both go well. His wife has kept up to him for years, and she wears our own make Eld Elastio Sides at 10s 6<L HEMUS'S STAR BOOT WAREHOUSE, Market Corner, Queen-street. TJETURNING TO ENGLAND. i ; H. PENDELOW i WILI.
