TROUT LAKE.

This valley has been visited by one
of the most severe snow storms. accom-
panied by wind, experienced for many
years. Old settlers tell of seven feet
of snow, but this does not equal that on
the level. though there are drifts 10
feet and more high. Reports of actual
depth in the valley vary from six to
seven feet, and seven and eight feet up
in the timber. Naturally, the mail has
been very much delayed. though too
much credit cannot be given Perry
Harter. who has done everything ex-
cept accomplish impossibilities toward
getting the mail through.
Owing TO the condition of the roads
our schools have been closed for few
days.
Conversation is almost limited to the
following: Isn't this an awful
Storm" "How deep is the snow?"
and "Will the mail be in tonight"

Turning the tables in the sense of
bringing a countercharge against an
accuser has classic origin. In the
days Of Augustus lmperator a regular
craze seized the men Of Rome to COM
pete with one another for the posses
sion Of the costliest specimens Of a
certain description Of table made for
the most part Of Mauritanian wood in
laid with ivory-"mensarum insania,"
or table mania. as Pliny called It. They
were sold at most extravagant prices.
When the men accused the ladies Of
sumptuary extravaganza the latter nat
urally retorted by reference to the
money squandered by their lords on
these tables and so turned the tables
on them" by throwing them metaphor
ically in their teeth.
