WORK.
Who's born to sloth? To some we find The ploughshare's annual toil assigned ; Some at the sounding anvil glow; Some the swift sliding shuttle throw; Some, studious of the wind and tide, From pole to pole our commerce guide; While some of genius more refined With head and tongue assist mankind. In every rank, or great or small, 'Tis industry supports us all. Yet common task and daily round Becomes a bore, unless 'tis found That TAN-OL—best of household aids— The joy of mistress, friend of maids; From dainty shoes to portmanteaux, Such leather goods appear as new, Floor coverings add years of wear, With pattern bright and polish there. Yes, TAN-OL works, goes ne'er nn strike, Is loved by all, serves all alike. In tins 6d (paste), ls (liquid).—Local Agents': Cock and Co.*
