the arches and vaulted roofs of Gothic
church architecture, revered tokens OF
the bending arches of intertwined

boughs, wreaths and garlands finds its
antecedence in heather sanctuaries.
The spirit Of Christmas is most
magnanimously manifested in York,
England, where they carry mistletoe
boughs to the high altar of the cathe-
dral and proclaim "a public and uni
versal liberty, pardon and freedom to
all sorts Of inferior and wicked peo-

toward the four quarters Of heaven.
In the varied nomenclature of the
word "mistletoe," according to the ma

the magical virtues with which the
weird plant Ia invested. DR.. Johnson
says the word is derived from mistion,

kitchen, and young man was deem
ed to have the right to kiss any lassie
caught beneath the cherished branch,
plucking off berry with each kiss.
If maid were not kissed under the

not marry during the ensuing year, a
tradition still prevailing. Even Mr..
