GREENWOOD.

The clouds obscure, the east winds blow,
But still we fail 10 get the snow,
Again It's calm. clear Is the sky.
And then We ask the reason why.

O'Clock, and no signs Of their coming, he
thought that for some reason, they had
concluded to stop over. and consequently
started for home. In about five minutes
they arrived. but the boy had got beyond
hearing distance. The joke was rather
hard on Mr.. Morgan, since he was oblig-
ed TO travel home on foot, q distance OF
four miles. What grand thing tele-
phone line would have been on that oc-
casion.
