When in conversation, I happened to say “Wait,my friend Phillips is coming this way.” “ Pray who is Phillips ?” a matron enquires: “ One who will satisfy all your desires : “ Phillips’s name is not shrouded in mystery, “ Phillips’s fame is a matter of history.” “ Well,” said the matron, “ and what will he do “ When he comes up to the Manawatu ?” “ Open a store, and by latest advices, “ Sell all hi 3 goods at Lowest Cash Prices. “ Congou from China, raisins from Spain, “ Sugars, the best that a man can obtain, Hardware from Sheffield, silks from La Franee, Cottons from Manchester —oh, whata chance ! All sorts of fancy goods, playthings, and toys, “ Presents for ladies, for girls, or for bojs ; i “ Everything suited for those in this region, | “ Briton or Slaori, French or Norwegian.” s | Bold Scandinavians ! men of the soil. !
