Away they sped with right good will, ' Through bush and brake, o'er plain and hill, But vory 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 1 i. iH «■•» roiiu r r home once more. Whenlm; payback he met poor Joe, Walking vi. :f; but very slow, Who when lie saw that it was Jim, With rueful face thus question'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 five-and-twenty miles to go ?" Quoth Jim, "The secret you shall know How I with ease and comfort go, Dame Nature's gifts I don't abase, And Helitjs always makes ray shoes. We forget whether Jim wore a pair of our Men's Elastic Sides cr Balmoral Boots at 12s 6a, but they both go well.
