1.-THE CALICO EGG"

"Have you saved up y'r eggs for
Eastern
"Ya-as; ye got any real purity calico ye
c'ud lemme haye?"
This conversation, varied according to
circumstances, might have been heard in
many hundred places in the United States
forty years ago, and especially in the
west. Easter was the children's big day
on the Wabash and southwest generally.
Thanksgiving day had not then been es-
tablished south Of the ''Yankeefied
states;" it did not acquire q full standing
i'll Indiana till the civil war, and it is not
even now much regarded south OF the
Ohio. But Christmas, Fourth of July
and Easter were truly national-none Of
them eligious-festivals in the south and
west. Indeed, the New Englander who
goes to southern Illinois and Indiana,
Missouri and farther south, is even now
amazed and frequently shocked to see and
hear Christmas ushered in with drums
and shotguns, tirecrackers and pistols,
egg nog and general riot.
"When the hens began to lay'' was the
time the little boys and girls began to
,"save up'' for Easter. In their widest
dreams of luxury and splendor they never
imagined the beautifully colored eggs now
displayed in every town and city, for the
settlers in the west in those days never
thought Of buying anything for festival
The little citizens were left to their own
devices, and wonderful ingenuity did they
often display. The commonest device was
to wrap the egg tight in fiowered calico
and boil it thus; the colored patterns We're
faithfully transferred to the white egg,
with gorgeous results. Hence for
many weeks before Easter, there was n
great demand for calico scraps of bright
and unusual patterns. Sometimes strips of
some intensely green vegetable were
fastened on the egg, but it required rare
talent to make this process q success. A
perfectly pure pink, uniform over the
egg, was thought a. great triumph Of
decorative cookery; and when one genius
succeeded in producing brilliant stripes of
red, white and blue around the egg, with
a white star here and there and q rude
eagle at the end, his performance was
hailed with patriotic delight.
In all this there was no religious signif-
cance whatever, and not one child in
thousand then knew why the day was
celebrated. Although a church here and
there began to observe the day with relig-
ious ceremonies, generally the singing Of
the Easter anthem and sermon on the
resurrection; and now Easter in the west
is rather more o religious festival than
Christmas. Among the children, except
perhaps the very poorest, the .'calico egg''
has become mere tradition, end the
progress of history is shown by the Won
derfully colored articles of all kinds, the
egg, except for model in form, being
comparatively Insignificant thing

In the Tyrol. Bands of musicians, for
which the Tyrolese have always been
noted, traverse every valley, singing the
beautiful Easter hymns to their guitars,
calling out the people to their DOORS. who
join them in their choruses, and together
rejoice over this glad anniversary. Their
wide brimmed Spanish hats are decorated
with bouquets of flowers; crowds of chill
dren accompany them, and, when the
darkness of night comes on. bear lighted
torches of the pine wood, which throw
grotcsque shadows over the spectators and
picturesque wooden h,lts.
With much of the lore and literature of
Easter day our readers are acquainted,
whether reference be had to the egg, the
hare, or the dancing Of the sun. The
Easter egg, however, it may be worth
saying-whether it be hens egg boiled
IN a piece OF colored print, or q costly en-
velope for bon-bons-is supposed to rep
resent the eggs used by the Jews at the
feast of the Passover, or the colored eggs
given ut the solar festival of the New
Year by the cid Persians. The egg, a
natural symbol of life, appeared in the
Athenian mysteries of Bacchus, in the
Hindoo fables, in the Japanese worship,
in the religious rites of Egypt. The early
Christians were wise as well as ingenious
when they seized upon the immemorial
superstitions and usages of the world
around them and gave them q meaning
and a part in the great work of the
church.
Easter week at Rome is always great
season. being celebrated with elaborate
ceremonies. The Landing of Joy," as
Easter day is designated, is ushered in by
the firing of cannon and merry peal Of
bells. At st. Peters the pope officiates
at high mass and pronounces u bcnedic-
ton with indulgences and absolutiQn.
An unusual number of distinguished peo-
pie will witness the ceremonies this
Easter, which will be of unusual magnifi-
cence, owing to the fact of its being the
Jubilee year.

THE HARE THAT LAYS THE EASTER EGGS.
Easter came, and the good queen sor-
rowed greatly that she had no gifts to
offer to the people, who in her trouble
had been always thoughtful and kind.
What could she do? She searched the
forest far and wide for barks and roots,
with which she made rare and beautiful
dyes. Then she gathered all her eggs,
and with skillful hand decorated them in
many tasteful design, hiding them here
and there in nests about her garden, after
which the children were hidden to search
for the concealed treasures. Imagine
their wonder and delight. Eggs, TO be
sure, but eggs so transformed they could
not believe but what the fairies must have
left them there.
At length one saw hare leap from the
vicinity of nest, and cried out:
ooh, it is a hare that lays the Easter
eggs!'
And to this day the children of that
distant valley believe that "hares lay all
the Easter eggs.n

EASTER STORY FOR LITTLE PEOPLE,

Numbered with other pretty stories
about Easter is one of pious queen who
sought refuge from her enemies in re-
mote valley, where the poor people by
whom she was surrounded had never seen
fowl.
AS time went on faithful servant of
the queen brought to his mistress num-
Der of the strange birds. Directly the
lord of the flock set up such victorious
growing that the inhabitants of the valley
fled in alright. But when one day O
brood of downy chickens crept from their
nest and walked abroad on their little
pink feet the children forgot their fright,
and ere long there was scarcely a house
hold without one small specimen of the
feathered race to pet and rear

reaches an oasis or the sea, when, yield
ing to the 'open sesame" of water, it un-
closes, leaving nature to use its jealously
guarded treasures at her will.
The dried plant, if carefully preserved,
retains for a long time it's hygromctric
quality. When wet it expands to its
original form, displaying florets not un.
like those of the elder, but larger, closing
again as soon as the moisture evaporates.
Hence it is reverenced in Syria as a holy
emblem. The people call it Kaf Maryam,
or Mary's Flower, and many supersti-
tions are held regarding it, one of which
is that it first blossomed on the night on
which our Savior was born.

In Christian countries, from the Fourth
century, the church prohibited the use of
eggs during the forty days Of Lent; but
as the heretical hens did not cease to lay,
large quantity of eggs were found to
have accumulated at the end of the period
Of abstinence. These were usually given
to the children, and, in order to render
them more attractive, they were dyed
with gay colors or otherwise ornamented.
A favorite game was to knock two eggs
together, and whichever broke became the
property of him who had the other. OF
course this would not profit much if the
eggs were in a fluid state, and thence
came the custom of boiling them hard.

EARTH AND HEART KEEP EASTER
In the bluebird's silvery singing,

In the bluebird's silvery singing,
In the emerald grasses springing,
In the songs the brooks are bringing,
Lol the earth keeps Easter dayi
From the tomb of winters keeping,
From the silence and the sleeping,
Flowers are waking, buds are breaking,
10! the earth keeps Easter dayl
In the soul to song returning,
In our life's glad, upward yearning,
In the light, still brighter burning,
Lo! the heart keeps Easter dayI
From the tomb of silent sorrow,
That was ours each gloomy morrow,
Hope is breaking, gladness waking,
Lo! the heart keeps Easter day!
In the promise Of the sweetness
OF the summers rich completeness,
And the story of its glory
Lo! the earth keeps Easter day!
In Gods promise never failing
Every hope and joy unveiling-
Ever gracious, ever precious,
Lo! the heart keeps Easter day!

Poetica1 Days in tho church Calendar.


There comes, not very long before Eas-
ter, that is to say, in mid-Lent, in Old
England, the pretty remembrance of
sMothering Sunday" when every lad and
lassie away from home, or out at service,
goes ga 1nothering," that is, to see the
mother at home, and carry her q cake or
a little present of some description An
old adage associated with this custom is
to the effect that 'who goes mothering
finds violets in the lane.''
After that comes Palm Sunday, which,
putting aside its sacred significance, is
one of the most poetical Of the days Of
the church calendar, when the devil used
to be exercised from the green and bios
soming heap upon the altars with the
words commencing, 81 conjure thee, thou
creature of flowers and branches" Few
of all our gentle house decorators who
hang bunchcs Of velyety silver gray will
low buds, known ls willow pussies, on
the wall or i'll the vases, know that they
are following an old habit of Palm Sun
day: when the young people used to go
out together to bring in willow branches
and buds, the willow serving them for
the palm. Palms, too, of one sort or an
other were in one part of the cold Couu-
try woven into crowns and used for a
sort OF divination, being thrown into Il
holy well there, their floating giving the
promise of another year of life, their sink
ing being an omen Of disaster.

FAIR cRocusEs AND sNowDRoPs.

Give flowers to all the children
This blessed Easter day,
Fair crocuses and snowdrops,
And tulips brave and gay;
Bright nodding dafrodils,
And purple iris tall,
And sprays of silver lilies,
The loveliest of all
And tell them-tell the children
How In the dark, cold earth
The flowers have been waiting
Till spring shall give them birth.
Then tell the little children
How Christ or Saviour, too,
The flower of all eternity,
Once death and darkness knew,
How like these blossoms silent
Within the tomb he lay,
Then rose in light and glory,
To live in heaven for aye.
SO take the flowers, children, =
And be ye pure us they,
And sing to Cltfist our Saviour,
This blessed Easter tlay.

EASTER WEDDINGS.
Advent marriage doth deny;
But Hilary gives thee liberty;
Septuagesima says thee nay;
Eight days from Easter says you may;
ROgatiOu bids thee TO contain.

LiSnG dnSS IRON Easter says you may;
Rogation bids thee to contain;
But Trinity sets thee free again.
The above verse enumerates the times
considered inauspicious forwedlock in the
earlier days. Whitsuntide was fancied a
most favorable season, while the supersti-
tlon against marrying on childermas, or
"lnnocent's day." Dec. 28, was exceed
lngly strong. Mothers forbade their sons
and daughters from joining hands with
other sons and daughters on this ami
versary, which commemorated Herod,s
massacre of the children, believing a
union formed at this time would bring
only disappointment and trouble.
Marry in Lent
You will live to repent,
is saying widely circulated and largely
influencing not only the people who lived
ages ago, but society folk in our own dav law
and generation. 1t is supposed to have
originated in the east of England, from
whence come n great many of the popular
superstitions.
There are no two seasons in the whole
year more prolific in weddings in New
York city than the few weeks preceding
Lent and the interval between Easter
Sunday and the first of May.
Now that Lent is over, the world of
fashion that has spent, for the most part.
the penitential season at Atlantic City,
Lakewood, Old Point Comfort, Florida
and other different fashionable resorts, is
returning homeward, and ere Easter week
has passed will have begun again the
whirl of gayeties interrupted when Ash
Wednesday, appeared. Conspicuous in
these festivities will be the wedding. The
Lenten season furnished ample time to
prospective brides and their modstes for
extensive preparations in way of trous-
seauX. Happy are the brides who marry
ing on the threshold of the spring season,
are provided with absolutely new styles
in gowns and bonnets.
Wedding presents which have to play
very important part at fashionable we'd
dings, will at this season bring with them
a flavor of Easter, as the so-ealled Easter
novelties" will notably lead. Numbered
with said novelties are prayer books in
silver bindings and decorated with white
enameling or etched with scriptural texts
and designs. Silver candlesticks and
candelabra will also prove popular, not
only because these, with their wax can
dies. are exceedingly fashionable just now;
but because wax candles and tapers have
somehow come to be associated with
Easter. The flowers, which will be as
plentiful as wedding bells are merry, will
be largely the early spring productions.

In some remote districts of France it is
still customary for the priest of the parish
to go round to each house at Easter and
bestow on it his blessing. In return he
receives eggs both plain and painted.
Easter with it's joy bells is likened to q
second New Years day. The peasant
bestows on his child an egg dyed with scar
let, like the cloak of Roman cardinal,
and supposed to come from Rome.

"Let us adopt the custom of Bresse. .
who Eats the Easter Bonbons ?

An immense quantity of bonbons is
made in France. England, Spain, Rus
sia, Turkey and the United States are the
chief consumers. More of the acid bon
bons are consumed in England, just as
more of those of an oily character are
eaten in Spain. The bulk of bonbons
sent to Turkey and Egypt is consumed by
the ladies of the harem. In the United
States, special confections for Easter are
made in all OF the large cities, and are in
discrininately eaten by men, women and
children.
