a Legend of tho Mlstletoe.

A myth Of the middle ages says that
before the crucifxion of Christ the mis-
tletoe was forest tree; but, owing to
its supplying the wood for the cross, it
fell into disgrace and became mere
parasite as a lasting memorial of its
ignominious use.
If from folklore and myth we turn to
philology, we find another point of in
terest in this associate of the Christmas
feast. Its name consists of two words,
thistle" and "toe" The former of
these comes from "mist," an Anglo
Saxon root which had different mean.
ings-mist, gloom, darkness, the mean
ing now used by tho former in "mis-
tle," and in old Dutch glue or bird lime.
In "toe" final n is dropped, and the
syllable represents the Anglo-Saxon
"tan," q twig, so that the whole word
is equivalent to bird lime twig and is SC
called from the viscid matter which sur
rounds the seed within the berry.

After all has been said and done,
Christmas is not Christmas without q
Christmas tree. You may omit the hol.
ly, even the mistletoe, but the Christ.
mas tree is as essential an attribute tc
real live" Yuletide as the turkey OF
plum pudding. In humble households
the turkey is often missing. OF neces-
sity it must give place to more pie
beian chicken, and the pudding to a
"store" mince pie, or something of that
kind. Yet no one can demur, for how
could any one dare to be hypercritioal
ON Christmas day? But take away the
tree, and every child in the household
will pronounce this feast of feasts dis
NAL, melancholy failure. Home and

and it is claimed that it is capable of pro

and much more easily handled; it burns
without smoke or odor and leaves only
about three per cent. of ashes consumes
slowly, and from the outside until it burns
away, and is a great generator of heat.

the beauties of the Wilson Tariff in the
reports from Washington of the import!
and exports for the first nine months Of
the present year. There was falling of
in exports of more than $l6, 900, 900, and
an increase of imports Of more than $97,
900, 900 below the sales of the same per
iod last year, although we we're promised
that the Democratic Tariff would work
