WINTERS PASSING.

A few more weeks Of snow and sleet
And crunching wagons in the street.
A few more weeks OF cold-and then
The robins will be here again.
And where the eavestrough drips and
spills,
VIII bloom a row OF daffodils.
1t won't be long. The snow will pass
And we shall see the tender grass,
The trees, now standing stiff and bare,
Will house full many nesting pair
And every twig. with winter gone,
VIII put It's richest raiment on.
Some morning / shall wake and see
The blue skies bending over me,
And see d bright-red breasted pair
AT work upon a nest up there.
And 1 shall smile and say: AT last
The dark and dreary days have pass
ed"
Then like the daffodils that bloom,
I, too. shall break the bonds OF gloom
And l shall hum CHEEKY song
Like one who has been troubled long
And then, released from strife and care
Finds beauty round him everywhere

We have also saved some money by
