Happy EDWARDIAN Christmas.


from 'Ladies Home Companion.'

" .... Kissing under the mistletoe is a very old custom, and no girl should feel indignant or hurt if one of her admirers shows a keen desire to salute her in the way that Cupid strongly approves.
Girls should remember, however, that because a man wishes to kiss her under the mistletoe, he does NOT necessarily mean to Propose to Her..."

(and this only just under 100 years ago.   How times have changed!)
