ourselves. We hope to protect them from adversity. We hope
to shield them from the vicissitudes of the world. Can we
better than start a bank account for them now?

CHRISTMAS WEALTH.
’Twas Christmas eve, and on the streets
The busy crowds passed to and fro,
Unmindful of the wintry blasts,
Forgetful of the drifting snow;
Belated shoppers hurrying home,
With figures bowing ’neath the weight
Of queer, mysterious packages—
Kriss Kringle’s wares, a precious
freight.
Outside a window full of toys
Two women lingered side by side;
One richly dressed, one thinly clad,
Both gazing sadly, wistful eyed;
And neither knew the other’s name,
So widely were their lots apart,
Yet e’en the passer-by could see
The trouble in each woman’s heart.
At last they turned to go inside,
One wearily, with long-drawn sigh,
To think that for her little ones
So few the trifles she could buy;
The other with a deeper pang,
Because within her spacious home
No children watched for Santa Claus;
Her Yuletide would be dull and lone.
The
thought, with longing
mother
glance,
Of Christmas joys that would be hers
Had she but half the wealth possessed
By her proud neighbor, dressed in
furs;
The other watched her hungrily,
As each small toy was brought to
view,
For well she knew the humbler one
Was far the richer of the two.
