Various well-known Publishing Firms in the guise of Forest-trees discovered shedding their leaves.
General Chorus.
See Christmas is upon us and the world around us living,
Seeks us and asks the pretty gifts it soon would fain be giving.
The stories thrilling, tender, sweet, to suit all tastes and ages,
All gleaming with their covers gay and picture-covered pages;
The dainty illustrated leaf, the paper softly tinted,
In type, to suit young eyes and old, all exquisitely printed:
Of artist's pencil, author's pen, the choicest, fairest flower,
Behold as the glad season comes we thus upon you shower.
