Good Friday and Easter Sunday.

These are movable feasts and the
fact that they sometimes. come in
March and sometimes nearly at the
close of April is somewhat confusing
to the common mind. Being
ordained by the Roman church
early in its history, the time Of
holding these feasts was fixed by
the rules of the churco. Good Fri
day, the lenteu season and other
movable feast depend on Easter
day and that is always the first
Sunday after the full moon, which
happens upon or next aftN the
twenty-frst day Of March, and If the
full moon bsppen on q Sunday,
yesterday is the Sunday after.
Good Friday is always the Friday
before Easter Sunday. There is 8
general belief that a late Easter
makes late season and that an
early Easter is followed by an early
season. Easter viii Hall in April

sapIs: How often we hear q man
jioke his wife about getting married Q

the same sort Of ghastly pleasantly
at the expense OF her husband. They
would not do it if they were to stop
aud think but a moment. Did you
ever hear wife joke about the death
of her child, or her mother or
brother, sister or faiber2 No. no.
But society is running over With
those who Joke about the deaths OF
their husbands. Il is the most
tbongh.less sort Of bomor ever in
vented. It is stirling with the most
serious subject on esrth.
We decry irreverent passages in
play or public address. It makes
the blood chill to see rude hands laid
on that which is sacred. Love is
sacred, marriage is sacred, death is.
awful The one ever painful thought
% those who are happily we'd is that
death comes at last to take one away
and leave the other alonely survivor.

Things to be Corrected.

Some Of our people are beginning
to think that they are called upon
very frequently for aid to those who
may have met With losses in any way,
and sometimes subscription papers
are presented to persons who have
less property than the proposed re-
c;pient Of their benefactiops, We
think, as rule, such proceedings are
iteuuraiz ug aud should be- .dsscon-
timed. Wkiie cb"risy to relieve the
immediate wants of tbs distressed
should not be withheld. yet gifts
.shonld no. bS asked 81 poor people
to replace tie loss Of property.
Aoother matter is :he 'excursiops'
on the cars which offer cheap traDs-
portation to ali who may apply, is, in
our opinion, both objectionable and
q . ~ =
demoraliziug, and we are glad to
hear that increasing numbers of onr
cifizeDs have reached decided con-
victions on this matter. We think
lAdies and children are just as happy.
Just as well proteced and just as free
from immoral or evil contingencies il
they remain at home on excursion
days.
Another matter: The habit Of de-
maDding from. candidates for Office,
or soliciting aid from men already IN
office, is q system which should be dis
continued. To one eense of the word,
ga,think itsisa kind sfblackmailipg or
