⁂ The Editor regrets to say that the poem entitled “The Beggar’s Christmas,” which appeared in Feathery Flakes, was copied from Little Folks for January, 1886, and sent to him by J. H. A. Hicks, as his own original composition. The copyright belongs to Messrs. Cassell and Co., and to them apologies for this unwarrantable reproduction are due.
