What H a blessing The poor 1 will say to tho public, H ought to be provided for. Of course jH they don't need much, their tastes aro H are not as re lined as the tastes of rich H people, consequently they don't re- H quire any luxuries, such as tea, sugar, H milk, bread or meat. Also, they don't feel the cold as the rich do, and they H never ought to have good warm clothes, old worn out ones are Just as IH good for them. Giving old clothes, H that arc good for nothing, to the poor, H rurnlshes a wide Held for tho exercise H of human charity, propably tho widest 11 Held In tho world. I think tho Lord H will rcwaid those who give away what H they can't sell or use; but 1 am not certain what the toward will be. H If Iwcic given my choice I would fl lather be born poor than i lull. Poor pcoplo don't havo to cat much, aro jH not burdened with washing their 1 hands and combing their hair, never iH havo to pick out a new pair of shoes jH or hat, and they aro alvvavs happy. -1 1 might say by way of advice to tho jH poor, ou aio the ones that should be H rcllglousln this world. If vouluiven't H tho almighty dollar to worship then H turn to tho Bible and its teachings. nl Scribbler. tl |
