  1. (continued from previous page)
    When old people complain of rheumatism it is a sign of soft weather.
    We hear the train very plainly when rain is near us.
    When sheep flock together and go to the sheltry side of the ditch it is the sign of a coming storm.

  2. "Evening red and morning grey
    Will speed a traveller on his way,
    But morning red and evening grey,
    He must wait another day.
