Those Calfskin Coats.
—Berton Braley.
I'D LIKE, if I were able,
Today you coats of sable
On think or seal or ermi[?]e
white as snow.
Bat they're co simulated.
Copied aud imitated
That which is which the experts
only know.
The furrier's a. deceiver^ ?
He syntheaises beaver, y' *.
Racoon and otter, iox and v, -fj
Persian lamb;
I'd like to buy them for you, <4 > i
To prove how I adore you; .
But I can't tell the teal from
the sham.
Why, even rat and coney
Are very often phony;
You'd hate an imitation fur,
I vow.
But I've found something flossy
In Genuine Old Bossy—
I know it's right because I
knew the cow.
