A Genuine Love Story.

Christian Advocate.
This story, told originally by Spurgeon we
believe, will, we are confident, strike a chord
in many loving hearts: .....
A young clergyman and his bride were in
vited guests at large party given by q veal
thy parshioner. In all the freshness and ele-
gance of her bridal wardrobe the young wife
shone among the throng, distinguished by
her comeiness and vivacity and rich attire ;
and when during the evening, her young hus-
band drew her aside and whispered to her
that she was the most beautiful woman in all
the company, and that his heart was bursting
with pride and love for her, she thought her.
self the happiest wife in the world. Ten
wears later The same husband and wife were
the guests at the same house, where was
gathered similar gay company. The wife
of ten years ago wore the same dress she had
worn on the previous occasion; and, of
course, it had been altered and re made, and
was old-fashioned and almost shabby. Toll
and care and motherhood and pinched cir.
cumstances had taken the roses out of her
cheeks and the activity out of her form. She
sat apart from the crowd care-worn and pre-
occupied. Her small hands, roughened with
coarse toll, were ungloved, for the ministers
salary was painfully small. A little apart the
ten-year husband stood and looked at his
wife, and as he observed her faded dress and
weary attitude great sense ofal her patient.
loving faithfulness came over his heart
Looking up, she caught his earnest gaze, and
noticed that his eyes were filled with tears
She rose and went to him, her questioning
eyes mutely asking for an explanation of his
emotion and when he tenderly took her
hand, and, placing it ON his arm, led her away
from the crowd, and told her how he had
been thinking 9th as she looked, ten years
before, when she was bride, and how much
more beautiful. for all her shabby dress and
roughened hands, and how much he appre
ciated all her sacrifice and patient toll for him
and their children, great wave OF happiness
| filed her heart, light shone in her face that
gave it more than its youthful beauty, and in
all the company there was not so happy a
couple as this husband and wife, their hearts
and faces aglow from the flaming up of pure
sentiment that TRANSPORTED and ennobed
and glorified all the tolls and privations
they had endured.

Easter.

This year Easter falls on the latest date on
which it can possibly fall that is to say,
April 25th or nearly month after the be-
ginning of the second quarter of the year.
Such a case has not happened in this centu-
ry, and will not occur again In the next
century, the twentieth, Easter will fall on
April 20, in 1943 If we turn back to pre-
vious centuries, we find that such II late date
for Easter occurs only once in each century,
that is, 1874, 1866, 1916. 1851 the fourteenth
century goes without such late date; 1904.
HOO, 1914. 919. The earliest date for Easter,

A. d. 1000. This earliest day for Easter has
occurred in 1851, 1893, 1898 and 1878, 1873,
and 1899 the thirteenth century is passed
over 1876, 1041, 946

Some Statistics for Farmers.

The Philadelphia North american says
there are still persons who cherish the delu-
sion that the prices of farm products have
either declined or not much improved, while
manufactured articles have increased in cost
This delusion comes partly from the almost
universal belief that the golden age was dur.
ing our grandfather time, and partly from
the false statements inthe doctrinaire prints
If we go back seventy years and compare
prices then with prices now, the delusion
disappears. The prices of what the farmer
had 10 sell then and what he has to sell now
as well as the price of farm labor, will be
fOnnd in the snbjDined table

japanese Homes.

1t is getting to be very embarrassing, thi

accommodating so much, our establishment
are becoming so complicated that daily lif,
is an effort. There are too many "things."-
Our houses are getting to be museums. A

mark ofhigh civilization that is to say, the
more complicated and overloaded we make
our domestic lives, the more civilized we re.

high civilization is towards simplicity and
acknowledgement, so that the human being

We have been looking at some pictures of
Japanese dwellings, interiors. How simple
they are how little furniture or adornment |

polish, refinement. They are in some respects
like the Chinese, who have passed through
ages and cycles of experience, worn out about
all the PHILOSOPHERS and religions then on,
and come out on the other side of everything
they have learned to take things rather cas-
lily, not TO fret and to get on without great
many encumbrances that we still YEARLY
carry along. When we look at the Japanese
houses and at their comparatively simple life,
are we warranted in saying that they are be-

that they have lived through all our expe-
