Jim's hurry would cot brook delay, So like a shot hR sped away ; His journey and his business o'er, Ho 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 question'd him : " Pray tell mo friend how it can be, That you can walk so light and free, While I, wiih blisters on each toe, Have five-and-twenty milefe to go ?" Quoth Jim, " The secret you shall know How I with cisc and comfort go, Dame Nature's gifts I don't abuse, And Hemtjs always makes my shoes.
