% Backward, Turn Backwards Etc.

The other day the manager of one of
the great railway lines which center in
this city was seen froclicking on Jetfer-
son avenue with number OF little girls
who were snowballing him. Yesterday
the Judge of one of the highest courts
in the land paused in his walk along the
avenue to watch several of Detroit S
forthcoming bellies rs they pelted each
other in merry sport. The Judge. in
terested in the little ones, proposed to
show them how to throw, and in Jolly
glee they turned upon him and filed
his neck with harmless handfulls of the
light snow. Then the Judge. forget
ting the dignity of his station, threw
aside the solemnity of the court and
chased the little ones across the street,
snowballing them in turn. But the
crowd of hooded and mittened little
ones was augmented by new arrivals
who joined the onslaught against
Uncle" as they called him.
''Deucedly undigniiied, you know"
our English cousins would say could
they have witnessed the scene, but the
Judge doubtless ate his dinner with
greater relish and in court that after
noon he was none the less a Judge for
his frOlic with the little ones. who will
remember the incident, for they knew
his station.
The incident is, perhaps, a triiling
one to record in print. but if the judicial
officer OF court of justice, whose mind
is burdened with matters of moment,
can afford to throw all aside and even
Inconvenience himself for the amuse-
ment Of little ones in the street, may it
not set thinking those who. in their
daily fight for the mighty dollar, can
find no time to give the darlings at
home a moments pleasure?-Detroa

MERRIE CHRISTMAS IN OLD EN-.
GLAND.

DOES Christmas in Old England differ
in much from Christmas amongst peo-
pie of English race in the New World?
In some external features certainly.
though a good many of the ancient
observances are obsolete now. or linger
only in great houses or remote places
where old traditions and fashions are
jealousy preserved. After the adver-
Using columns in the newspapers, and
the windows of fancy and toy shops.
the first tokens of holiday time are to
be found at Covent Garden Market. A
fortnight before Christmas the Market
and all its approaches are transformed
into an evergreen forest. One walks
through aisles of spruce-firs-th Christ
mas trees that have tiourished in En-.
gland only since the reign of Queen
Victoria, brought probably by Prince
Albert from the Vaterland. There are
tons OF laurel, holly, ivy. box and mis-
tletoe packed into every available space
and loading great wains. Ir laurels
there are the Portugal and the varie-
gated: there are bushy branches of fra
grant bay; laurustinus. covered with
just-bursting tufts of snowy blossoms;
ivy, glossy green or exquisitely tinted
by frost-nips and profusely black
berried; hollies in all grades of curled
and thorny leaves, set with clustering
berries bright" and mistletoe boughs,
round. topping, the witty green stems
sparsely clad with slender foliage. and
the white or pa!e-gr waxen berries
clinging like rain-drops about the axis
of the leaves.
There is also a white-berried variety
of the holly. and another with beauti-
fully variegated leaves. A load of this
latter, generously berried. sometimes
brings as much as 800. The mistletoe
is sold for S25 or $50 the ton There
are years when it is almost impossible
to procure any holly with berries, when.
in price, as dealer explained, "Ollies
are horful" but there is never any lack
of mistletOe.
And Covent Garden is only one of the
great markets that supply London with
Christmas greens. Where does the
enormous supply come from? The
mistletoe comes from the apple orchards
of Normandy and Brittany, from Guern-
sey and Jersey. and from the cider and /
perry counties of mid and southwestern !
England. So plentifully does it cumber /
the apple and pear orchards in these
counties that several small towns in
them send each over one hundred tons
of this plant, beloved of the Druids, to /
market each December. The mistletOe
berries and leaves grow in clusters of
three, united in one stalk. The pro-
cessions went thrice around the sacred
object, with incantations thrice re-
peated, and the Druids cut LII shoots
from an apple tree: 147=7x7x3.
Herrick plants the parasite in our
hearts:
Lord, am like the mistletoe,
That hath no root. and cannot grow
Or prosper, save by that same tree
1t clings about. So by Thee
The greens other than mistletoe come
from all over England. They are cut
from common lands and public forests,
they are clippings of plantations con-
tracted for with the stewards, they are
