that not one would be able to answer
you correctly without first consulting q
book Of reference.
The fact is that the date varies more
than a month, though many years elapse
between the widest variations. 1t is
possible for Easter to come as early as
the 22d of March, and it may come as
late as the 25th of April. In 1886,
Easter fell on the 25th of April, but it
will not again come so late as that until
the Youngest reader Of these lines shall
be old enough to be grandparents
1913.
The moons monthly journey around
the earth is the foundation of the eccen-
tric Easter dates, just as the earth an
nual excursion around the sun causes
the trouble that necessitates leap years.
Easter is simply a Christian adapta-
tiOn of the Jewish Passover. The word
Easter dates back farther than the time
of the religious Observances that now
characterize it. The Anglo-SaxOn name
of April was EastermOnath, meaning the
month Of the spring morning. or the sun
warmth, which awakened Nature from
its winter torpidity. The early Chris
tians adopted this idea Of Natures
spring awakening to typify the resurrec
ton of the Savior, just as the Jews used
it to commemorate the events connected
with the escape of their people from
Egyptian bondage.
But the antipathy of the Christians
toward the Jews in those early days led
them to make an attempt to have the
Easter Observances always fall on dates
other than those that cOmmemorated
the Passover. The system that we now
have for fixing the Easter date is due to
that attempt. After as much thought
and calculation as was given to
the tinkering of the calendar a COM
plete plan was adopted, and here is an
attempt to make it more Ineligible in a
few words:
1t was determined, in the first place,
that Easter must invariably fall on the
first Sunday after the fOurte enth day of
the moon that happens to be reigning at
vernal equinox time. Then it was de-
clared that the date of the equinox
should be arbitrarily made March q,
although the equinox really comes
sometimes little earlier or little later
than the 21st. For example, suppose
the equinox moon is just fourteen days
old on the 2lst of March, and that this
day falls on Saturday-then the next
day, Sunday. would fill the condition
noted above, and consequently be
Easter.
OF course you can readily perceive
that so early an Easter date can very
rarely occur. The Christian Easter was
originally sort of thanksgiving service,
lasting eight days. This conformed
somewhat to the length of time devoted
by pagans to their spring festivities,
and approached the duration Of the jew
ish paschal observances. The eight
day period was afterward cut down to
three days, after that to two, and finally
it became as we have it now, a day COM
memOrative of the resurrection.-New
York Press.

our designs for decorating Easter eggs,
it is none the less true that they will
well repay the decorator in pleasing
effects.
Eggs to be decked in these fanciful
shapes need to be either blown or boiled.
It is not difficult to blow an egg; simply
make two perforations, at opposite ends
Of the egg, that at the pointed end a
trifle larger, If anything. A large pin or
a darning-needle is the best instrument
to use in making these perforations.
Then apply the lips to the larger end
and blow, not in puffs, but with steady
force. The white will exude slowly
from the perforation at the opposite end,
and then the yelk. II one has not the
patience to blow all the eggs required,
it will do to chip one end Of the shell
very carefully and empty out the con-
tents, repairing damages by pasting q
piece Of white paper over the hole.
Either water-colors or oil-paints will
do for the decoration Of the eggs, and q
