A N OLD STORY KE-MORAL'D. Two men a journey had to go (The one was Jim, tho otbor Joe), The distance two score miles and ten, And fifty long miles back again. Away ihey sped with right good will, Through bush and brake, oVr plain and hill, But very soon the on* cnll'd Joe Declared ho cou'd no further go. Jim's hurry would not brook delay, So like a shot Iw sped away; His journey and his business o'er. Ho took the road fur homo once more. When half way back he met poor Joe, i AValking along but very slow, Who when he 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, wi'h blisters on each toe, ffave five-and-twenty milch to go ?" Quoth Jim, " The secret you shall know How I with cisc and comfort go, Damo Nature's gifts I don't abuse, And Hemus always makes niy shoes. We forget whether Jim woro a pair of our Men's Elastic Sides ir Balmoral Boots at 12s 6d, but they both go well.
