THE HAT AND THE SHOWER.

The hat and the show'r, one very wet hour,
Met together to test who had got the most pow'r.
The shower was " heavy," though " light" was the hat,
Yet each one agreed to the fight for all that.
The hat, it appears (as it often had done),
Was boasting concerning E. MOSES and SON,
And boldly declar'd, in an audible strata,
That MOSES fam'd hats are a match for the rain.
"Hold your tongue !" said the shower, "you poor little imp,
You seem rather 'stiff,' but I'll soon make you limp.
I'll dent in your crown, and I'll soften your brim,
And make you appear in a different trim."
Then the rain " pepper'd" down on the brim and the crown,
While the other did nothing but laugh like a clown.
.. Her kept out the rain, like a famous " repeller,"
Although the poor " feller" had no umbrella ;
And the hat remain'd " smooth," though the rain was so "rough,"
Till the struggle was o'er, and his foe cried—''
Enough !"
" There, I knew," quoth the hat, " how the fight would be won—
I knew you'd no chance with E. MOSES and SON ;
Whose hats, like their garments, are made in a way
Which stamps them, at once, as the first of the day.
You thought that each drop, as it pelted my top,
Would damage my form—but I've made you cry, Stop !'
art
I knew, all along, how the fight would be won—.
I knew you'd no chance with E. MOSES and SON.

TO THE EDITOR.
A PROOF OF THE EFFICACY AND INNOCENCE OF
MORISOFS PILLS.
To Messrs. Merisoit and Moat, London.
Eynsford, near Dartford, Kent, April 9, 1845.
Gentlemen,—A case whi h shows the good effects of the medicine
is in a child of my daughter's, only six weeks old, with an inflamma-
tion on the chest. She gave it a pill or two without much effect.
It got worse. She then gave it three pills of No. 2, which removed
the disease. In all she gave It fourteen pills in live days. It is now
well, and grows nicely.
Yours respectfully,

ANN HILDER.
People of England !—Compare the above safe Hygeian mode of
cur with the opium and prussic acid treatment of doctors ! Where
would this child have been under such treatment? Most probably
in its crave, and the confiding I
