Because they buy their goods for cash
And do not deal in leather trash,
Bnt sell good solid leather stuff
And always sell them cheap enough.
Don't take my word. convince yourself;
They'll gladly take them from the
shelf
And show you all the goods they've got
Whether you spend a cent or not.
It will not cost "a cent to price,
Unless the goods they've got suffice,
And even then the price is shaved
So close, it is your money saved.
Proclaim it over fields and woods
That Muse & Cox dom { sell dry goods,
But tell to all the gladstone news
That Muse & Cox can sell you shoes.
Their fall and winter stock is bought,
And if you don't see them, you ought,
Because you want new shoes, not old,
To shield your feet from winters cold.
When winters winds begin to blow
And Mother Earth is wrapped in snow
You'll take pneumonia and may die
Unless your feet are warm and dry.

And buy the shoes of least expense,
Not something simply that looks nice,
But something good that's wort h the
