SHOE RHYME. In shoos wo laugh, in shoos we pluy, In shoes wo walk about all day, In shoes we talk, in shoes we ride, And shoos are thrown e'en to a bride.And so we say, and so we think, In shoes we eat, in shoes we drink, In shoes we -run, in shoes w« trade, And shoes are our unstandlng' aid. We shoe the horse, we shoo the fly, And why not shoes for you and I ? In shoes we woo, in shoes we wed, When shoes leave us we leave for bed. And hence 'tis wise to wear the best. For such—tax not your weary wits, Come straight to us, we'll give you FITS, And if our ad. you'll stop to read. You'll likely lind just what you need. AT J. R.
