JUVENILES

There's not a dress-mart to he found
Throughout the British Isles,
To ♦ie with that of M. and Son,
In dress for Juveniles.

Moses and Son make boys' attire
In all the various styles ; -
For while tbey strive to please adults,
They study:Juveniles.
All who behold this famous stock
Bestow approving smiles I
And thousands flock to M. and Son,
To dress their Juveniles.

Moses and Son can also sell
. Superior Caps and tiles,
And hoots and shoes, and other things,
To suit the Juveniles.

E. M. and Son, in seeking trade,
Esc' ew all art 4 wiles ;
And so you'll say when once you try
Their dress for Juveniles.

Their trading patronage has spread
For many, many miles ;
And far and wide their fame extends
In dress for Juveniles

A Medal. containing an Almanac for the year 1850, wil be pre.
seated to every customer.
