S Winter beards the caves with icicles, he makes the lake a floor on which skaters may disport themselves. And somehow the season seems to infuse a spirit of jollity into everything. The men I meet look ruddier and healthier, they talk in louder and cheerier tones. They are more charitable, I know. Winter binds "earth-born companions and fellow mortals" together, and domestic life
indoors takes a new charm from the strange pallor outside. Sofa and slippers become luxuries. The tea um purrs like a cat. In those long, warm-lighted evenings, books communicate more of their
inmost souls than they do in summer, and a moment's glance at the village church roof, sparkling to the frosty moon, adds warmth to fleecy blankets and a depth to repose.
