VISIT FROM
ST. NICHOLAS

Twas the night before Christmas when all through
the house
Not creature was stirring, not even mouse;
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that Saint Nicholas soon would be there.
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions Of sugarplums danced through their
heads;
And Mama in her kerchief and in my cap
Had Just settled our brains for long winter nap;
When out on the lawn there arose such clatter
| sprang from my bed to see what was the matter.
Away to the window fed like fash,
Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash;
The moon on the breast Of the new fallen snow
Gave the hshe Of midday to objects below,
When what to my wondering eyes should appear
But a miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer,
With a little old driver so lively and quick
| knew in moment it must be Saint Nick.
More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,
And he whistled and shouted and called them by
name.
snow, Dasherl now, Dancer! now, Prancer and
Vxenl
On, Cometl On, Cupid on, Donder and BGhenl
To the top Of the porchl To the top of the WALL
Now dash away! dash awayl dash away, ALL
As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly
When they meet with an obstacle mount to the sky,
So up to the housetop the eoursers they flew,
With the sleigh full Of toys and Saint Nicholas too.
And then in twinkEng heard on the ROOF
The prancing and paving Of each little hoof-
As drew in my head and was turning around,
Down the chimney St. Nicholas came with bound.
He was dressed all in furs from his head to his foot,
And his clothes were all tamshed with ashes and
soot
A bundle Of toys he had flung on his back,
And he looked like peddler just opening his pack;
His eyes--how they twinkled! His dimples, how
merry!
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like chenyl
His droL little mouth was drawn up in a bow,
And the beard on his chin was as white as the snow;
The stump of pipe he held tight in his teeth,
And the smoke it encirced his head like wreath;
He had broad face, and little round belly
That shook when he laughed like bowlful Of jelly.
He was chubby and plump, right jolly old eli,
And laughed when saw him, in spite Of myself.
A wink Of his eye and twist Of his head
Soon gave me to know had nothing to dread.
He spoke not word, butwent straight to his work
And filed all the stockings; then turned with jerk,
And laying his finger aside Of his nose
And giving nod, up the chimney he rose.
He sprang to his Sleigh to his team gave whistle,
And away they all few like the down Of thistle;
But heard him exclaim ere he drove out Of sight,
"Mery Christmas to all, and to all good night"

origin Of the Christmas Card

Christmas cards! Why 1t seems as
though they must have been used ever
since there was Christmas. But,
really. 1t was only quite recently that
they came into fashion, Three men
claim the honor of their invention:
The Rev. Edward Bradley. better
known as Cuthbert Bede. j.. C. Hors-
ley. RIA. Cuthbert Bede had some
cards made and the late w. C, T.
Dobson. R.A.. just for his own pri-
vate use in 1854. and two years later
his printers put some on the market
for sale

In 1892 the writer was engaged in
exploratory work on the west end of
tn Gogebic range, our headquarters
being at the town of Iron Belt. At
that time the little town was lively
place. The Iron Belt mine was AT It's
zenith. the Shores mine was just dis
covered and the Atlantic was then
opening up on what promised to be
the biggest thing on the Gogebic.
We noticed in last weeks Ironwood
News Record an item telling of the
passing of the Atlantic. the last OF the
properties in the vicinity of Iron Belt
and the one upon which that village
has depended for number of years.
Ii IA as follows
The Oliver Iron Mining Co. has sur
rendered its lease of the Atlantic mine
at Iron Belt Wis, several years of
persistent exploration by drifting and
cross cutting and the use of diamond
drills, having failed to disclose new
bodies OF ore OF Importance. The ore
measures exploited nc the Atlantic.
and which Welded a considerable ton
mage, were found in the black states
of the hanging wall, the find" hav-
ing been looked upon with much in
terest when twas first made. Follow
ing the surrender of the Plummer lease
few weeks ago. the latest suspension
comes as hard blow 20 Iron Belt and
the western end OF the range
The passing Of the Atlantic leads one
TO ponder over the instability Of things
In this iron mining section. The state
tax commission persistently refuses
TO acknowledge that the value of resi-
dence property lie dependant upon the
life OF the mines although there are
number of glowing examples similar
to Iron Belt in the Lake Superior
ranges.
