THE DETERMINED PROPHET.

THE DETERMINED PROPHET.
''we'il git bad weather yit," he said.
When March was warm and pleasant
Don't ye go an be misled
By these nice days at present"
And as the days kept fair and nice
And winter grew more distant,
He kept predicting snow and ice.
For he Is quite consistent.
When April days came laughing In
He said: I'm bet my gizzard
This month will bring, as sure as sin,
4 record breaking blizzard"
When the last neck Of ice had gone
Along the river channels,
He said: You'd better keep 'em on
Referring thus to fiannels.
And now when breaths Of rare perfume
Come drifting on the breezes,
He wears a look OF settled gloom
And not a prospect pleases.
He says this weather's a deceit,
The weather mans a Nero
Who'll suddenly turn on the sleet
And force things down to zero.
The falling snow viii deeply drift
Along about December,
And then his eyebrows he will lift
And chortle: You remember!
I've been a-tellin' you 'twould be
Just like It is at present
Ye can't put too much faith. We see,
In weather that is pleasant
