THE RECENT ECLIPSE.
Pray what did you think of the recent eclipse,
The subject, it seems, is on overt' one's lips ;
I presume, like myself, that you could'nt see much,
On account of the gloom of the day being such.
But didn't your thoughts irresistibly run,
On the bright shining fame of E. MOSES and SON ?
I frankly confess that my bus 3 thoughts strayed,
To MOSES and SON, who eclipse all the trade.
Yes, I thought of the manner this Dress-mart equips,
A manner so likely to cause an eclipse.
Messrs. MOSES, I thought, in the tailoring trade
Had cast competition completely in shade ;
And in proof of these sweeping assertions I'd show,
The suit I obtained at their famous depot :
If yon look at the waistcoat, you're forced to admire,
The taste of B. MOSES and SON in attire;
And the neatly cut trousers and elegant coat,
Do credit to MOSES and add to their note.
And hence I repeat, as I've heretofore done,
That none can eclipse Messrs. MOSE,. and SON.
A new Work, entitled" THE DRESSING-ROOM COMPANION,"
Containing a detailed List of Prices, with full Directions for Self-
Measurement, may be had on application. or forwarded post-free.
