What Santa Saw in NORWAY.

Old Chris laughed out with the greatest gleo
.One OF the prettiest stores that ever see
Il on Main Street corner OF Cottage
Its size by measure IL rather small,
hut IL took time 10 see II ALL
And though I'm old I'm not In my dotage.
FIRST thing saw rs I opened the door.
Hung all around from top 10 hoor
Was handkerchefs Of every kind
Cotton and linen. ak and lace.
Even for turkey red they had place.
handsomof lot you couldn't find
II stepped along and my eye was caught
BY some thing in Boston Town they bought,
Ear drops and buttons small and large,
For collars and cuffs, for ladies' and girls.
Pms for the neck and pins for the curs
And very small is the price they charge
$50 much Jewelry there was in fact
That these ladies with their usual tact
For IL had moved their ribbons ont,
And looked some time before could find en-
Piled on tho shelf right there behind EN-
In easy reach rs they turned about
"Going across 10 the other side
found many things they couldn't hide.
For here Of goods is a very nice line
To mako into dresses. for common best.
Walk IN visit, 10 work or 10 rest,
Plaids, stripes, plain, coarse and fine.
FARTHER down are the ginghams and prints.
Innings and shirtngs. hannes and uekings.
And tho skirts must not be forgotten.
Across from these pants and vests
Stockings for and hose for the rest,
And many kind Of cotton.
AT the farther end and well worth mention
Are cloaks that especially call attention.
Because The very first week in December,
Clear 10 fhe bottom the price went down.
And everyone in and out OF town
viii do well this fact 10 remember
"siany things ough, 10 name,
