NO SCHOOL TODAY.

And that night it showed. In the morning, when Johnnie Green crawled from his bed and looked out of the window, he could scarcely see the barn. A driving white veil fickercd howled. The blinds rattled. Even the whole house shook now and then as mighty blast rocked it. It was just the sort of weather to suit Johnnie Green.
 There won't be any school today." he cried. And he hurried into his clothes much faster than he usually did. Though Johnnie Green was eager to get out of doors, most of those that lived in the barn were quite content to stay there during such a storm. The old horse Ebenezer especially looked pleased,
 "This will be a fine day to doze," he remarked to the pony, Twinkle heels. Farmer Green won't make me do any work in this weather. The roads must be blocked with drifts already"
 Twinkleheels moved restlessly in 
 his stall.
 T don't want to stand here with nothing to do," he grumbled. If l could sleep in the daytime, as you do, perhaps l wouldn't mind. And, if I were like the Muley Cow, maybe l could pass the hours away by chew ing a cud. Bright and Broad can do that, too," said Twnl<leheels
 "Oh. Farmer Green will have the oxen out as soon as the storm slack ens," old Ebenezer told him. And no doubt you'll get outside as soon as they do, for Johnnie Green will want you to play with him in snow, or I don't know anything about boys"
 "GoodI' Twinkleheels exclaimed. "I hope he'll take me out. It would be great fun to toss him into snow drift But l don't see what Farmer

French perfumes that sold here few weeks ago, when the stores first opened, at 6oo,000 to 7oo,000 rubles CSC to SD for a tiny flask, are now quoted re- tail at twice that figure, and the price is soaring as the spectators in stol- en sugar, in furs, in boots and shoes make more money.
 There is a perfume market, just as there is grain or leather market and there is set of speculators who prey on the spectators who get rich in other lines. They have put out agents who are racing to the cheaper markets for perfumes, such as Baku Batum and Odessa on the Black Sea
