THE IRON KING.

"My dear, pray what shall we dor"
Once asked my loving wife;
We have no cook, you know, now,
TO stem the kitchens strife;
This STOPPING and cooking
Over fires large and hot,
Is perplexing and vexing,
Oh who has cit It nptP
THE labors OF the kitchen,
Since our me- fDes went away,
Were both toilsome and irksome,
And still are 50 to day;
Can't you tighten and brighten
This load OF heavy care,
That distresses, Expresses,
And drives me to despair"
Said I, "TIl go to FULToN's
Aud there a stove I'll buy,
No matter what the price is,
An IRON KING I'll try;
Then roasting and toasting,
Will not wear away your life,
But a pleasure and a treasure
Be to you my angel wife,"
So down to town ] hurried,
Almost as quick as thought,
And there from JOHN A. Fulton,
An IRON KING bought;
And now broiling and boiling
Are the sweetest works 10 life,
No more caring, despairing,
Distresses now my wife.
Farewell, We dirty negroes,
I'm Independent now,
For wife can do the cooking,
With a smile upon her brow;
No whining, no repining,
No angry threatenlngs ring,
But nv meals now, reveal now,
How cheap is IRON KING.
So now if you'd appease
A weary, suffering wife,
Her kitchen trials set at ease,
Secure a stove for life;
It'll warm you and charm you,
Drive discomfort away,
Both your wife then, and life then,
Prove sweet as flowers of May.
The above are the sentiments of
at least one hundred men, in this
and adjoining, counties to whom ]
(and H. S. Lee betoreme) have sold
the celebrated Iron King Stoves. ]
am contide.t-and they all agree
with ne that they are the best
Stoves in the world. remember
