Ain_ One half the world are desolately single, and the other

WEREVER I GO
'Tie a singular thing, but a fact you must know,
I'm reminded of MOSES wherever I go.
If I go to the East, if I go to the West,
The garments of MOSES mg, notice arrest ;
And the North and the South in the very same way
The triumphs of MOSES' famed Warehouse display.
Wherever I go I am certain to meet
With the dresses of MOSES, so stylish and neat.
If I go to a party, the gentlemen there
Remind me of MOSES in all that they wear;
If I take a long trip on the stage or the rail,
Fellow-passengers tell me the very same tale.
On the right and the left, and the left and the right,
The fashions of MOSES appear in my sight.
At the cot and the palace, the church and the play,
The dresses of MOSES and SON I survey.
Yes, the rich and the poor, and the high and the low,
Remind me of MOSES wherever I go.
And what do I learn from a fact such as this?
That the garments of MOSES have nothing amiss.
Should I meet with these dresses wherever I go,
If the clothes were deficient in quality ? No I
But u .o—a a-ty marks them, and fashions as well.
And that's why the goods universally sell.
10 addition to this, they are sold very low,
And hence do the publie approve of them so,
In eve direction wherever I go.
