The widow of an officer, an elderly lady, and near relative of mine, has used them—very rarely having recourse to other medicines for a long period of years ; she has recommended them extensively, and in one instancei n which she induced a person to adoptthem, and supplied the first box herself, they have proved ox extraordinary efficacy. I think that perhaps there is scarcely any other of the many patent medicines before the public of equal value as a " friend in need"—certainly none possessed of superior claims I shall be happy on all occasions to givelhem my individna recom mendation, and am, Sir, " Your obedient servant, * r * gop Sold by T.

A servant employ'd by a certain esquire Hal a magpie which ev'ry one used to admire! She bought it in spring, When a featherless thing. And soon taught the creature to talk and to i g. Jays, magpies, and parrots, and birds such as these, Say many strange things which are certain to please. But the magpie in question surpris'd ev'ry one, By talking concerning E. MOSES and SON. The fame of E. MOSES and SONS noted trade Was told by the squire, and heard by the ma d; The servant had oft heard her master declare That he'd never heard toll of so vast an affair. And chancing to know one of MOSES'S rhymes, She set to work teaching the magpie betimes. 'Tis true, that she quoted the couplet amiss, But never mind that, the quotation was this : " The best Mart for clothes is The Dress Mart of MOSES." Well, the magpie, it seems, was a very apt bird, And utter'd the couplet the same as 'twas Mara. And still does the magpie surprise ev'ry one By sounding the fame of E. MOSES and SON. 'Tis a very strange thing and I've many times thought If the servant has not been rewarded—she ought. No doubt when E. MOSES and SON are aware Of the " Maid and the Magpie," and all the affair, They'll present the good maid with a very warm boa, Or what else she may please from their choice winter store, While " Maggie' (the feather'd advertisemeat), still Will utter the truth-telling rhyme with his bill " The best Mart for clothes, is The Dress Mart of MOSES."
