Mary Reading, KaEsas.-Now that our
great national feast Thanksgiving Day. is
coming on in what way can we show our
gratitude for the blessings we have received
during the year better than by remembering
the poor? Do we not know at least one
family who in want? 1t would be well
for each one, who is able to do SO, to con-
tribute Il small amount from her stores TO
help the worthy poor through the dreary
winter. The more quietly Sucn char. ties are
bestowed the better, but dO not omit the gift
There is nothing that will bring down such
blessings Oh your own homes as Inc gratitude
OF the poor
