a good glazier, she puts big windows in the

on. Nary once. The first time we bot
on the ice, the Old Settlers al told us thai
1t was very thin this year." Wc had the
pro:oundest confidence in the Old Settlers.
They said it would go out carly; We believed
the Old Settlers. Others shook their heads
we grew angry that they should doubt the

oh! how we waited for that ice to verify the
predictions Of the Old Settlers. But it did
not 10 it. We went down and bid it an af-

we went again and repeated Byron's ''Farc-

ice, it wasn't lnovcd-not at least till a month
alter we'd lost our bet. Next year VIC bet
that people would dance round Maypole on
the ice in Lake Pepin-the Oath Of March
found tho river clear; and last year, WE
thought we'd be safe, and so we bel with
one fellow, that the river would open before
the first of April, and wo bet an equal
amount with another fellow that it
wouldn't and we wish We may be hanged
II we didn't lose both bets. We never
could comprehend it; but we explain it
on the ground that ice was very slippery
last year. Andwhat's more both the fcI.

ice must have been slippery last year. At
