It happens this way. Our many friends
Have been so very kind Of late,
That II It be possible 90 to do
We their kindness would compensate.
Our dress goods are getting very low,
In trimmings we want the newest things,
Buttons and fringes, glmps and Jets,
And any novelties this season brings.
As the days grow short and windy and cold,
People will need warmer Hannels and hose,
And our stock Il sadly In need Of more,
For this year we haven't bought those.
Our blankets too are almost all gone,
And our stock Of shawls Is small,
Cottons and crashes and nannels and ticks,
Oh, yes, We are needing them all.
Ribbons and ruches too, and gloves,
Corsets and necktes, light and gay,
Spool cotton and silk, needles and pins,
And such things you use every day.
All these and very much more we need,
And this we think good reason,
Why Miss Prince went to Boston herself, to select
New goods for our friends this season.
