MY FIRST SUIT OF CLOTHES,

My first suit of clothes, I remember them still,
And the price that they cost, for I've still got the bill.
If I recollect rightly, E. MOSES and SON.
At the time I refer to, had only begun.
And being but young, as of course you'll suppose,
My p +rents obtained me my first suit of clothes.

My mother, one day, with a smile•that bewitched,
Said she thought it high time for the boy to be breeched.
If so, said my father, the job shall be done,
And, mark you, we'll go to E. MOLES and SON.
You've heard of the dress their Establishment shows?
Let us start off at once for the first suit of clothes.

So away we all jogged, near to Aldgate churchgate,
And perceived two large houses, which now are made eight.
I wish, said my father, on entering these,
To look at your juvenile dress, if you plea.e.
And the very first glance, as you'll doubtless suppose,
Made him bargain at once for my first suit'of clothes.

I scarcely need say 'twas a capital one ;
And a suit that did credit to MOSES and SON.
Such, indeed, was the case, though the price that was paid,
Was quite a new thing in the tailoring trade.
And the fact, that I still buy of them, plainly shows,
That they've not been remiss in my last suit of clother.

'E. MOSES and SON invite especial attention to their Shooting-
coats, which possess a peculiar cat and style, adding much comfort
ISt the fit. E. M. and 11. are convinced they will be ranch approved
of ley the public.
