Lent.
Lent is "a shortened name for the
Lenten or Spring-tide Fast. 1t is a
period of forty days, Immediately pre-
ceding Easter, and has been observed by
the Christian Church for many centuries,
as preparation for the joyful festival of
the Lords Resurrection. 1t is also a
solemn commemoration of the Saviour $
Fasting and Temptation in the wilder
ness, in regard to which it is made 10 ex-
tend over like time, forty days.
The Sundays in Lent are not fasting
days, and are not accounted days of Lent.
Only the week days are reckoned, and 80
the season begins forty.six days before
Easter. The ilrst day of Lent is ASH
Wednesday, which falls, this year. on the
9th day of March.
During the season of Lent 1t Is usual
to increase the number of public services
and the instructions are intended to
awaken the careless and bring about
greater religious earnestness among Chris
tians. The yearly /" Week of Prayer
that is kept by several bodies Of non
Episcopal Christians in January, is a sort
OF shorter Lent, and modern substitute
for the ancient Spring Fast OF the historic
Churches. II is proposed, now, by lead.
ing mon lii some of the denominations, to
change the lime of the Week of Prayer,
and make it concur with tho last week of
Lent, thus including Good Friday. The
thought is good one. II carried into
effect, 1t might be one step in tho direc-
tion of practical Christian unity, for
which good people are now yoarning.
And 1t would be very appropriate re-
membrance, by all Christian people, Of
the Redeemer's great sufferings, at tue
very season of their endurance, when, by
His Agony aud Bloody Sweat, His Cross
and Passion, His precious Death and
Burial, He undertook to deliver us from
sin and death. X.
