Blow, blow-howl and drift for ten
days. But let US feel thankful that tits

our pig the inwards indicated vigorous
winter, and we got ready. Snow is apt
to come in the winter and bull thistles
in the summer. Such Is the persistent
law of nature. Telephone and rail con-
nsction are still ours, and the twentieth
century is upon US with bright promises.
