RAT'S YOUR OPINION of MOSES ?
My opinion of Moses' is this,
That their warehouse has nothing amiss;
For many a year have I tried
The garments by Moses' supplied,
And finding bow business is done,
I can recommend Moses and Son.
I've a bill on my file you must know,
Which is dated just twelve years ago,
When first I was tempted to try
The garments of Moses' supply,
And ever since then I've been one
To support Messrs. Moses and Son;
For during the whole of the, term,
Not a fault have I seen in the firm.
The various promises made
Have all been fulfilled in their trade,
And the more I have known of the mart,
The more have I acted my part.
In furnishing stylish attire,
Messrs. Moses are all I desire;
And I've equally found them outdo,
In make and material too.
These praises will also apply
To the boots and the shoes that you buy;
Nor can I say less of the shop,
With prime Paris hats for the top ;
And the hosiery shows what the trade is,
And the beautiful shawls for the ladies;
There's nothing, in fact, that you buy,
But ranks the proprietors high.
The whole of the houses, as one,
Do credit to Moses and son.
Then look at what savings are made
By the very low price that is paid.
The strictest economy here
Is constantly found to appear.
In all things the warehouse disc`oses
What scarcely a stranger supposes,
And that's my opinion of Moses.
