Something About Easter

This year Easter will fall on the lst of
April-nine days earlier than last year.
The earliest possible day for Easter is the
22nd of March, and it fell On that day in
1818-foY the last time in about 200
years. One object in arranging the calen-
der moon was that Easter might not fall on
the same day as the Jewish Passover;
They did occur, however, in 1905 on the
l4th day of April, in 1928 on the Bird day
of April, and viii do SO again in 1923 on
the first of April, in 1927 on the 18th of
April, and in 1881 on the 18th of April.
Last year Faster and the Passover were
separated by but a single night. The
Jewish festival usually occurs in Passion
week, in Lent, and never before the 18th
Of March or after the 25th of April. On
the other hand, the Christian festival is
never before tho 22nd of March or after
the 25th of April. In 1913 Easter will fall
on the 22nd of March, as it did in 1845
and 1856. The latest Easter occurred in
1886, the 18th of April, and it win not
fall on that date again until l949.

THE EASTER BELLS.

Ring, ring, o Easter Bells
Ring, for the rosy hills of dawn
Shine meath the feet of Easter morn!
Ring till your long, clear tidal swells
Flood the wide earth with silvern sound
Ring for the battle fought and won!
Ring for the Victor throned and crowned:
Ring for death destroyed and sin undone!
Ring, ring, Easter Bellsl
Ring out the love that will not cease
To weep o'er brows where all is Peace,
Ring out black weeds and funeral knells:
Ring in the love that walks in light
ofhealing hope, and lifts its eyes
From lily wreaths to saints in white,
From empty graves to Paradise!
Ring ring, Easter Bells! =
Ring out the wide wild bitter cry
OF hearts that break and souls that die,
On grimy streets and noisome cells:
Ring in white charity, to trace
Through soil and want the Masters tread
And learn to know His blessed face
On giving Peace and breaking Bread
Ring, ring, Easter Bells,
Ring out the old man born in sin;
The new man born in Christ, ring in
Ring in the living-water wells
Ring in the Bridegroom and the Bride
Ring in the one true, great High Priest;
Ring in the pearly gates oped wide'
Ring in the endless marriage feast
Ring, ring o Easter Bells!

THE MOTHER OF INVENTIONS.
what Protective TarIm HAS Done
for Art

The advocates Of protection often
refer to its stimulating effect npon
those for whom it's influence secures
high wages, leisure and opportunitif 8
for education and advancement. The
San Francisco Chronicle illustrates
this argument by a review of the pro-
gress Of inventions under the free trade
regime, compared with the progress
under protection.
1T becomes interesting, in view Of
the general concession that inventors
pro mote the public welfare, to ascer-
tain under which fiscal policy they
have been most numerous. As in an
other case, in order to institute com
parison between two epochs, we shall
take the free trade period OF 26 years
prior to S6l, and the protection era
which be gan with that date. Tho total
number Of patents Issued before The
war was 3690S. while from and in
cluding 1852, and up to and
including 1885, there were 347. .676
issued. The greatest number Issued in
any one year prior to 1852 was 4.S1O.
while in 1885 as many as 24,233 were
issued. The annual average during
the first period was ,4l9; the average
during the second period was 18 410
Ia 1860 there was one invention to
every 6.4i0 inhabitants in 1855 there
was one for every 2,5oQ.7
All these figures tend to emphasize
the fact that the faculty Of invention
has increased in the same ratio that
our manufacturing industries have de-
veloped. Is the country ready to adopt
q policy which in the very nature Of
things must diminish this mental and
mechanical activity which has done
50 much to increase the prosperity Of
the United Statess The President and
Mr.. Mills appear to think 30, but the
great mass Of American people do not
share their belief, and will do all in
their power to continue the policy
which has contributed SO much toward
making the United States famous as
the most inventive nation in the world.

A Tale OF Manufacturing Depres-

A brief recital Of historical facts is
here in order. Previous to the So
called Union ireland possessed, among
other protected industries. manufac-
lures Of wool, carpets, blankets, silk,
linen, calico, flannels, stockings, etc.
OF all those only one, linen, remains
vigorous. Started nearly two CEN
turtles ago, and nurtured by liberal
protection. when in 1896 such protec-
lection was withdrawn it was suffi-
ciently matured to stand strong and
vigorous, and is now not only recog-
nized as one of the leading industries
OF Europe, but 80 cosmopolitan in repu-
tation that the prefix Of Irish is a sure
guarantee of excellence of fabric
throughout the world. Not 80 with
wool and its manufactures, an industry
which from the birth of the lamb to
the finished fabric OF the loom gave
pleasant and profitable employment to
farmers, manufacturers and operatives,
besides, from a mysterious virtue in
the excrements OF the sheep, restoring
worn-out lands and fertilizing hiIlsidee,
where other agencies could not be
applied.
The Unions continued the protection
on woolens twenty years, when, by q
sliding scale, the import duties were
gradually diminished to nothing, and
in 1910 the wooden manufacturers OF
Dublin, who numbered OF in the year
1900, were dwindled down to 12 in 1870
and the employees in the came time
were numerically reduced from 4.91S
to COZ persons. The same statistic.
