POLLY HANGING HOLLY WITH Polly I chanced to be hanging the holly, With Polly the roguish, with Polly the sly; With Polly, who's brimming with frolic and folly, A quip on her lip and a Jest In her aye. The wind it was grieving, and shadows were weaving Their dark web without o'er the face of the sky. Within It was merry with green leaf and berry. And Polly, close by, with a gleam to her eye. "This holly, I know, sir, you wish mlstle» toe, sir!" Cried Polly aa o'er us a wreath we hung high. I looked at her, laughing, to see were shs chaffing, And, oh, what a glint there shone oui from her eye! "TUIS HOLLY, I KNOW, SIR. YOU WISH MISTLETOE, SIR!" How like the rose petals on which the bee settles Her cheeks were! Her lips were the holly fruit's dye. "Be it mistletoe, dear, a minute or so, dear!" "A minute?" breathed Polly, with mirth In her eye. So It's, oh, to be handling the holly with Polly, With Polly the mischievous, Polly the sly! With Polly, the genius of all that is Jolly, A lure on her lip and with love In her eye! —Clinton Scollard 111 Smart Set. ORIGIN OF XMAS GREENS. they Were I'sed at Chrlstmsntlde Five Ceutnrlca A go.

In 11 very old book we find this reference to the use of evergreens at Christinas time: "Against the feast of Christmas •very man's house, as also their parish churches, were decked with holme, lvle, bayes and whatsoever the season of the year afforded to be green. The conduits and standards of the street* were likewise garnished, among the which I read that in the year 1414. by tempest of thunder and lightning, to ward the morning of Candlemas day, at the Leadenliall, in Cornlilll, a stand ard of tree, being set up in the midst of the pavement, fast in the ground, nailed full of holme and ivle, for dis port of Christmas to the people, was torn up and cast down by the malig nant spirit, as was thought, and the 6tones of the pavement all about were cast in the streets and into divers houses, so that the people were sore aghast at the great tempest."—Leslie's Weekly. On the ChrUtniai Trees The old fashioned stockings and hearts and crosses and animals cut out of tarlatan outlined with worsted and then tilled with tlat candies and tied on the tree are always popular orna ments.

The baker at Christmas time usually has his windows filled with horses, dogs, cats and men and women made of delectable cake dough and artistically ornamented with color ed sugar curlycues. These are tooth some and attractive to the small boy and girl. Candles in small candle holders are always scattered well over the tree.
