Easter Eggs
The following is an extract from an article
entitled Eggs in Chemistry and COn-
nerce, by p. l.. SimHonds, +. l.. S" which
appears IN the Popular Science Monthly for
| May:
Eggs, although OF animal origin, are now
allowed to be eaten by Catholics during
Lent. But 1T was not always so. Formerly
eggs never figured on the tables OF the faith
fol during the fast; but on the saturday
previous to Easter a great quantity Of eggs,
held over for SIX weeks, was blessed and dis
tributed among friends on Easter sun
day. They were dyed yellow. violet
aud especially red, hence the origin OF the
/ red or Easter eggs. In the reign OF Louis
! XIV. aud XIV. after grand mass on Easter
sunday pyramids Of eggs gilded were taken
TO the CABINET Of the King, who distributed
them TO his coUrtiers. The custom Of Easter
eggs is continued to the present time. al
though modified. Easter eggs are 20 longer
blessed nor gilded to be offered 10 SOve-
Teigns, nor are they held over TO Easter eve
20 receive brilliant cOi0fs. A fortnight be-
fore Easter, ~ the cofee-boUses and reStau-
raets In Catholic cities, may be seen huge
dishes OF eggs OF various cotors which are
eaten by The customers with their beer.
And in families hard egg is added TO the
saisd, after removing the colored shell.
The mutual presentation OF colored eggs
at Easter By friends continues in Russia and
| all Catholic countries. Fowls eggs various
" coloied, and having flowers and other
devices upon them, formed by the coiorins
matter being picked off SO as TO expose the
white smell Of the egg. are part OF all the
Malay entertainments in Borne0.
GOOD TINE FOR THE CHILDREN.
The many hundred children who took
| part in the EasteT-ecg hunt at Broad. Street
| Methodist Episcopal church last year will be
| Delighted TO hear that there will be another
given for their enjoyment on Easter Monday.
The ladies who have IL in charge promise
that all who come shall have a good time. and
every child will get an egg. In addition 10
the hunt there will be 4 fish-pond and other
attractions. They will also have candles,
cakes. aud fruits for sale and ice-cream and

the children.
