OVER THE SNOW.


Holiday week had set in heavy and
threatening. II he'd opened with prom
ise OF snow, aud lad ciossd with is veri-
Christians eve the whole country for
miles around Piketcn was wrapped IL
one spotless and unbroken mantle. The
sIeighing was perfect. Never in the
memory of that much quoted oldest au-
thority III P:lsAteR had it been so good.
Our metropolis was alive with excite
ment-like the classic city OF Stoke
Pogis, it was '.agitated to It's center"
The sudden Juror for sleighing, added
to the inevitable buzz of holiday prepa-
ration. drove the usually quiet popula-
ton into n fcTer of action. Every avail
able sleigh, however old, was rooted
from its hiding place; horses accustomed
only to the pillow and the market wagon
pricked up their ears to the unwonted
hi-g' langi of excited drivers, and even
crockery crates and dry goods boxes
were put upon extemporized runners.
All Piketon, swathed in furs or blank
cts, was bundled into something that
would slide; the road to the Bulls
Eye"-the sedate drovers' tavern five
miles out--was resonant with the merry
music Of their bells and the rollicking
laughter of their occupants, while its
primitive bar room and sanded parloT
were alike crowded from nipping morn
to frosty eve.
And how delicious is sleigh ride
when all surroundings are propitious
Who that has ever wintered in snow
country but has a store of ready recol
lections that spring up at tho first sound
Of tha bells2 Be he serious well round
