CHAPTER X
THE MASON’S LITTLE PIGS
Ugh! I can5t stand rainy weather!
Espe-cially in summer! Perhaps some people may
like a nasty drizzling rain that keeps on day
after day right in the middle of summer, so
that the gooseberries drop from the bushes,
and there is only a soft wet plot of ground
where one expected big, magnificent
straw-berries and bad joyfully kept watch for them
day after day. As for the rose-bushes, only
the yellow hips are left on them. Half
de-cayed rose petals lie sprinkled on the wet earth,
and the mignonette and daisies lie flat on the
ground all mouldy and limp.
Our old liouse on the hill is the most
delight-ful house in town,—that is really true—but in
rainy weather it is perhaps a little wet up there.
