Easter Sunday, or as II was formerly

In olden times there was feast OF the Teu-
tonic goddess Ostera dn the Anglo Saxon
Easter, whence naturally comes our Easter,
the goddess of spring, and the Anglo-Saxon
name for April was Easter month The pa
ran worship Of Ostera was strongly rooted In
Northern Germany, and was brought into
England by the saxons; and the early mis-
sionaries, finding 1t impossible to abolish 1t,
endeavored, as with some other ceremonies,
90 far as was possible, to change 1t to q
Christian festival, and to give to the rites q
religious signiH .ance. This was easily done
in this instances for joy at the rising OF the
sun, at the burr ting Of spring from the bonds
Of winter, the resurrection Of the natural
world, could quite easily be changed to joy at
ne rising of the sun Of Righteousness, at the
resurrection of Christ, his triumph over
death and the grave. Easter has often been
called the Christian Passover, because the
Jewish Passover was celebrated, according to
the Mosaic law. on the 14th day Of the
month Of Abb, that is, within day or two
before or after the vernal equinox.

The girl had clasped her hands on the young

responded to this thoughtful scrutiny by
touching her hair lightly, caressingly with
his lips, and then speaking with careless
laugh:

GWhat can girl do in our dayP exclaimed
Agnes Clement, petulantly. The speaker
rested her elbows on the table and gazed- at
the lamp.
Opposite was sister Anne, calm, matronly,
self-satisfied, mending baby's pinafore.
aPlenty of occupation may be found in
your profession, if you would seek it, replied
sister Anne, biting off her thread and form
ing new knot painting china, designing
wood cuts, even coloring photographs.
Agnes raised her head with flashing eyes.
aOh, why do you not add taking in wash
ing, or scrubbing down the stairs" she cried,
with scorn and anger.
@That is the difficulty" continued sister
Anne, with unruffied composure. "You are
impatient and despise the beginning. One
cannot spring into full-aedged artist at one
bound. Pray how did the great European
artists commence, about whom you are 50
fond Of readingl Very modestly, promise

Agnes made no immediate response In
stead, she rufied her blonde hair with her
hands, and stared moodily at the lamp The
room was plain, and the. noise of the street
below was audible in the tinkling Of car
bell and thu rattle Of carts on the pavement.

A key was inserted in a neighboring door,
and the object Of her solfcitude entered, bring

Very early In the morning.
Ere the light shone In the east,
Ere the stars announced the dawntng

Saying, "Jesus Is not here!'

That the world his peace may know.
