With a shriek of "Give me poison!"
He ransacks his corner cupboards,
Finding naught but beer and ink there,
Frenzied, rushes out to Hubbard's.
Fainting, weak, he gains the counter,
Where he quaffs a sparkling mixture,
While he cries with exultation,
"False Eliza Ann, I've fixed yer."
Ask you why Augustus Dooley
Rose superior to his bothers?
'Cause he swallowed a yeast powder
Manufactured by Twin Brothers.
MORAL.
Gentle reader, use no other;
It's efficient, it is cheap, it
Saves your labor and your money,
And all first-class druggists keep it.
