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 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 he sped away; His journey and his business o'er, He took the road for home once more. "Ween half way tiaok he met poor Joe, Walking along but very slow, Who when he saw that it was Jim, . , With rueful face thus qnestion'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 nve-antl-twenty milea to go ?" Quoth Jim, "The secret you shall know How I with case and comfort go, Dame Nature's gifts I don't abuse, And HEMns always makes my shoes. We forget whether Jim wore a pair of our Men's Elastic Sides or Balmoral Boots at 12a Cd, but they both go well. His wifo has kept up to him for years, and she wears our own make Kid Elastic Sidesjat ios ca.
