Mother Goose-Up to Date.

(Elberton Starr
There was a man who lived in oul
town
And he was wondrous wise,
He filled store chuck full Of goods
And began to advertise;
And when his goods were quickly sold
With all his might and MAN,
He filled a store five times as large
And advertised again.
He never had to cry hard times"
He never lacked for trade,
He pinned his faith to printers ink
And now his fortunes made.
