The popularity of mistletoe was unabated for eeata. ries. but one old writer says: "Mistle- toe was abandoned in the Christmas decking of churches together with kissing at the services. because both were found to set the young ladies and young gentlemen a-reading of the mar riage service"
 And dear old Santa Claus. or Saint Nicholas. or Kris Kringle. as you pre- fer-what delightful myths from an tiquity have presented him with his re!ndcers ard his whiskers and pack of toys, The Scandinavian legend re- lates the coming of odln. the winter god. who visited earth at the tirR of the Winter Solstice or Feast Odin rode Q white horse and preceded by wolves and ravens was supposed to lead an army Of souls that had died turing the year. As Christianity tri- amphed it was oniy over the unbap uzed that he was thought to have power, ard his army came to be com rosed only Of the souls of children to whom he became friend. Eventually he was said to bring the toys and gift to the children on earth.

 On Christmas eve we illuminate the tree with many fiickering candles-un less we prefer safety to sentiment. V ben we make use of the electric lighted devices. One may choose among several picturesque accounts of the origin of this practice. In me dieyal times when the forests seemed
 peopled with none but sacred trees.
 there was a tradition of particular
 holiness being invested in an illumi-
 mated tree Thea the ancient Jews
 held Feast of Lighs about Christmas
 time in which candles were an impor-
 tant feature. so that their use may
 oddly enough have been thus adopted
 by the Christians The huge Yule
 candle signified the coming Of the light
 into the world. Tho most beautiful idea is that our use of candles is de- rived from the fact that probably
 when Christ was born twinkliag lights were burning in every house. The holly and mistletoe irdispel.s- able for holiday decoration were orig inally identified with pagan festivals There is tradition that holly is the
 bush in which Jehovah appeared to Moses. The mis;letoe was an object Of great veneration to the Draids. al though only when it grew upon an oak tree. The propriety of kissing
 under the Iaistletoe is relic of an old Scandipayisa myth It seems that Issfder. the Apollo of the North. was
 hated by one Loki because "eyery- thing that springs from fire, air. earth and water" had given promise not to hurt the former handsome gentleman. Whoever it was had thus coerced all filings of tine earth and sea, had some how neglected to mention the matter :o the insignificant nistlctoe.
