I bought me a suit of the Searsbuck
brand, thev said it was sewed aud
tailored bv hand; they said it was
woven of finest wool, aud couldu't be
torn by au augry bull; they said it was
fine and would surely last, till Gabriel
tooteth his filial blast. It was ten cents
cheaper than suits I'd bought, from
local dealers, who seemed quite Lot and
shed a bucbet of briny tears, when I
bought my clothes of the Sawbuok
Rears. I wore that suit when the day
was damp, and It shrank to the size of
a postage stamp; tbe coat split up aud
tbe vest split down and I scared the
horses all over town, for the buttons
popped and the seams they tore,' and .
the stitches gave with a sullen roar.
Aad I gave the suit to a maiden small,
who found it quite handy to dress her'
doll. ,
