Photographs.

Have you thought the matter over !?
Will you sit for them today?
The picture that you promised
When you decided to go away.
1t will tax your time but little,
In this lonely Brandon weather;
Keep yonr contract and come in
Bring your family all together.
If you want some perfect poseing,
Held to natures perfect line;
If you want a first.class finish,
Softer than the dewdrops shine
At Hollensbe's you can get it,
With perfection true and straight,
In the picture tent on Main Street,
The pictures are up-to- date.
Tis debt you owe to friendship,
To pay loves silent salary,
This sitting for a photo,
In the picture tent on Main Street.
And the quicker one performs it,
In fear of loves soft wrath.
The sooner the worry is over,
The better the photograph.
