MistIetOe and Holly.

Hanging rooms with holly WreathS
and punches of mistletOe is time hon
Ored custom which can be traced to the
days of the Roman saturnalia and even
early Persian customs. Our own custom
of decorating our rooms at Christmas
comes more Immediately from ancient
Germany, where evergreens were hung
in honor of the midwinter festival.
The Druids used to cut the mistletoe
from their sacred oaks with elaborate
ceremony. A golden knife was used
to sever the parasite from the tree.
During the ceremony two white bulls
were sacrificed, and music and process
sional formed part of the rite. The
groves of Mona, once the favorite re-
treat of the British Druids, were cut
down by the all conquering Romans
and have passed from the popular mem
DRY, but the miStletOe, which the old
Druids called "all healing" is still an
object of veneration. In some parts
of England berry is plucked from the
mistletoe for every kiss that is given
under it, and when there are no more
berries left no more kisses are allowed.

The Stage In Books.

There have been many young girls
ready to believe as gospel truth any
thing they saw in book, and the more
innocent the less suited they were to
analyZe the statements made in these
inconsequent tales. They only saw
that by way of the theater any pretty
girl in poverty, in trouble, could in the
briefest time become great, powerful
and wealthy. No word was said of the
long toll in obscurity, the yearning for
recognition, the perpetual disappoint-
ment, the thousand hopes always with
ering like leaves before frost. the
wretched life in poverty, of struggles
against numbers and perhaps jealousy
and malice, of slow increase Of salary.
Of equal increase of expense The old
time novelist was silent as to all these
and only dwelt in large and vague
splendors-never adequately accounted
for.
Poor, romantic little maids! One does
not like to think what the effect of the
gilded nonsense of such books about the
stage may have been, but in my own
mind l compare them with such book
as 'The Mummer's Wife," that fright
full and realistic story of Mr.. George
Moore's-that horror in stupendous
realism, but ooh, Son Of David, have
mercy upon us" it is the truth CLARA

The Khyenxs' First Woman.

The Khyengs of Burma are probably
the only race or tribe of people that
have any tradition Of the origin Of the
human race that do not have a man or
male human being in some way con-
nected with that important event. The
Khyeng genesis "Opens in this wise: ''In
the beginning OF the world, after the
sun, moon and stars had appeared, the
earth by it's own inherent power of pro-
ductiveness brought forth a female
creature, which was called Hleeneu.
She laid 100 eggs and Matched them in
cotton wool, and from them sprang 100
human beings, the progenitors of the
different races" The least that can be
said of this curious belief is that it is a
fine illustration of the multiple theory
as applied to the origin of the human
race
