Advertising Talk
A hen is not supposed to have |
Much common sense or tact,
Yet every time she lays an egg
She cackles forth the fact.
| A rooster hasn’t got a lot
| Of intellect to show,
But none the less most roosters have
Enough good sense to crow.
The mule, the most despised of beasts,
Has a persistent way
Of letting folks know he’s around
By his insistent bray. U
S The busy little bees they buzz, p
Bulls bellow and cows moo, J;
The watch dogs bark, the ganders quack, \
The doves and pigeons coo. M
The peacock spreads his tail and squacks, P
' Pigs squeal and robins sing ft
And even serpents know enough IS
To hiss before they sting. p
But man, the greatest masterpiece C
That nature could devise, H
Will often stop and hesitate j|S
Before he’ll advertise.
;Merchants who are wise i
And want our people’s trade §?i
Use THE MONITOR to advertise JS
* And thus their fortune’s made. m
