A humorous lifting of the glass to Adam and Eve (or to the lot of descendent men) : "Here's to the Garden of Eden/Which Adam was always a-weedin'/Till Eve by mistake/Got bit by the snake/Who on the ripe pippins was feedin'/Then a longing it seemed to posses her/For clothing sufficient to dress her/And ever since then/It's been up to us men/To pay for her dresses --- God bless her", and an old English toast. "May fair clothes always cover fair hearts", and more somber, "Dress has a moral effect on the conduct of mankind" (Sir John Barrington). A collection to enjoy in private or with others, with or without glass in hand. Fine copy. J. Sinramm (Decorative Illustrations) (illustrateur).
