The cold weather, which is only an
incident of the winter to those who live
comfortably in their well-warmed houses,
and the appearance of snow season of
hilarity and joyousnsss to those who are
the fortunate owners Of horse and
sleigh, or have the means to procure
one, is very different thing to the poor,
who in such seasons feel more bitterly
the pinchings Of poverty, and thus are
rendered much more fitting subjects Of
charity. Let those who have the "good
things" of this world, therefore, re-
member the unavoidable suffering around
them. To those who give literally and
wisely Of their abundance, shall much
