dorse those pinks and greens upon
the door and window screens. What
loving thought you have bestowed
upon this nobly planned abode! And
now you have a home SO fine, alas,

reached both of James ears; his wife
arose and dried her tears; his aunts
forsook the new green fence, and said
to me, You're talking sense" 1--WE
We're discouraged and distraught,"
said James, this house, on which
we've wrought, is criticized in dras-
