Somewhat moro than year ago Prof.
Mason, OF the Smithsonian Institution,
addressed card OF inquiry 70 the Wash
ington Star and in response received
many various kinds of information as to
the origin Of cgg-rolling. Some specu-
latively assert that it is probably one Of
the oldest customs now in vogue, for
thcy associate it with ancient Greek
and Roman games, and some go even
back Of this and find that is related 70
the very earliest OF buddhist practices
In India. There IS said TO be an egg
rolling game in China which so closely
resembles this one Though 1t ia played
by old men instead Of childrcn) as to
warrant tho belief that both have come
from one parcnt practice.
Regarding the introd uction OF the egg

this Is frowned upon as being no part OF
the tine-honored custom-an innova-

OF egg-rolling. Now and then a girl
with little OF Old Nick's blood in her
veins adds piquancy 10 the game
by rolling down the hill herself or by
pushing a mate down, but this, the con-
servatives assure me, is girl-rolling,
not egg-rolhng. No objection is made
to 1t or TO the introduction Of any other
forms OF amusement, but they must DO
kept apart in name from the original
custom This must not be contaminated
by any modern conceits or practices.
SO cyg-rolling continues to be the pur-
pose and the leading sport OF this pecu-
liar festival, though the children appear
TO find most Of their amusement in other
games. for after the season Of rolling
they turn TO skipping ropes, romping,
racing. wrestling, keeling somersaults
and having good time generally.
The children of Washington were up
bright and early, waiting mpatiently
for the hour TO come when tho big iron
gates OF the White House grounds should
be opened for them and they should
take possession Of the vast green lawn
which rolls away down the slope to the
south ward OF the Presidential mansion.
Long before this hour, even before the
Presidents attendants were abroad, the
streets about these gates were thronged
with bright, expectant little boys and
girls each with basket OF gay-hued
eggs. Then came men with toy ball
looms and paper whirligigs. carts with
tempting cakes and candies. and the
hokey-pOkey man with his hocus-pocus
merchandise, went in and out among
the groups. Nothing was needed but a
company Of s;rolling playtolk and a
thimble-rigger's fascinating outfit TO
make the sccno look like a gay old
country fair.
By ten o'clock tho grounds we're over
run By children and the egg-rolling had
begun This was left generally TO the
girls. the boys engaging in the more ex-
citing pastime Of picking eggs. For
many days before this festival the lads

REST CoMErH AFTER ALL.

Though friends desert you in the race for fame,
Though ugh fortune lesges fou for some other
Though you are blaIpeless, yet receive much
blame,
Though sorrow dwelleth deep within your soul,
Though life has been'a failure, and you plod
Footsore and weary DER this earthly ball,
Still if you have faith, trust in God,
Rest cometh after all.
Rest cometh after all. then higher climb;
Rest cometh after all, though wealth departs,
The world may blame you, yet rest sublime
Shall drive the sorrow from your heart of
Though iife's sad failures make you onward
plod.
uSin-sick and weary till you reach the pail.
Still if you have faith, trust In God,
Rest cometh after all.
Rest cometh after all, then let us go
Forth to the duties Of this feeting life,
Bearing our Masters burdens, for we know
In Him is comfort and rest from strife
And worldly sorrow: Let our faith be shod
With love and mercy, while we ever call
Our friends to an eternal. mighty God.
Rest cometh after all
Rest cometh after all, then as we seek
higher life, a better, grander road,
Let us of Jesus as Savior speak,
For He viii help us bear lifes awful load
OF cares and sin, of doubt and unbelief,
OF earthly struggles be they great or small.
We thank Thee, God. that life and trials are
brief
Rest cometh after all.

FAIR PHILOSOPHY,

On the Pacific coast they are telling the
following story on ex-senator Fair, who now
regularly attends Grace Episcopal church,
San Francisco: On certain Sunday one of
his boys went to church, and when he re-
turned the genial ex-senator inquired what
the sermon was about. "Well, !" replied the
lad, some of the things that struck me was
the way in which the preacher went for us
wealthy people. He said that when the
Savior was looking about him for disciples,
he went among the poor and lowly and took
his followers from among them. Christ, the
preacher said, had no rich men among his
IL apostles" 'sMebbe the rich men
wouldn't serve, my son." remarked the ex-
senator, patting with kindly hand the curly
head of the boy. ''Mebbe they wouldn't
serve because they were too busy. Even
your father couldn't spare the time to be an
apostle, with stocks bobbin' up and down as
they are now. and some of the best mines
