The Fishes

THE FISHES

Now forth to fish goes good Saint Valentine, And baits his gentle hook with tender wishes, Cupid has lent his bow for rod and line. Alas! Our time has come—we are the fishes.

CUPID’S FORECAST FEBRUARY

Generally frigid airs, varied by storms and melting spells, with changing temperature until the Fourteenth, when a soft wave will sweep over the country accompanied by sentimental Mail Storms, resulting in a general rise of temperament and a happier atmosphere. Husbandmen who are cultivating matrimony will be much troubled through this month by the squally nights.
