For beauty of gloss, for saving of toil, For freeness from dust and slowness to soil, And also for cheapness ’tis yet unsurpassed, And thousands of merchants are selling it fast.

Of all imitations ’tis well to beware; The half risen sun every package should bear; For this is the “trade mark” the MORSE BROS. use, And none are permitted the mark to abuse.
