Berries white and berries red,
Eestoened arches overhead
Green and red, green and white,
In the glowing candle-light;
All along the hallway dim,
And the yawning fireplace trim.
Here spray and there a bow
Holly wreath and mistletoe!
In the window DER the door,
From the ceiling to the floor,
Where the lads and lassies fair
Stand beneath the winding stair;
Glowing cheeks and sparkling eyes
Speak of many glad surprise;
Merry laugr-a gallant bold,
And the story soon is told.
Hang them high, and hang them low
Holly wreath and mistletoe!

his rifle with him while at work, and
although deer were plenty, waited un-

wounded it.

says she was embarrassed, but did

her hat was on fire.

Burns to drop his broken rifle and he
seized the animals horns with both
