EASTER.

To-day is Easter, and will be OBJ
served with appropriate ceremonies in
the churches ali over the land. With
the the thought of Easter there a.
ways comes the thought of the use oil
the egg at this season. The using Of
the egg as . symbol, antedates the
Christian era. Among the Greeks.
the Romans, Egyptians, and in fact
nearly all the nations of antiquity,
the egg was the symbol of the universe
The Egyptians long used it as an en-
blematical of the restoration of the
human race after the food. The
Jews used it in the Feast OF the Pass
over, and the Druids in their myetic
rites. As observed in our land to
day, the custom is clothed in the
sanctity of the Christian religion and
is the symbol of the resurrection Of
Christ.
The word "E aster" comes to us, it
is supposed. through the northern my.
thology, from Eostre, the goddess Of
love. corresponding with the Venus
of the Romans In honor of this d.
vinity our pagan forefathers held
an annual festival some time in the
month of April.
How few of the little boys and
girls who will attend Easter services
to-day, know why the day is observed
and how many parents would be at q
loss to give their children an intel
legible explanation |! May the com.
memoraiion of this great event prove
a blessing to oil.

A BIG AUDIENCE EXPECTED.

Il il seldom that peEsons have ever
engaged more heartily or moro IN
oeasingly in any work than hes that
noble band Of ladies of Sedalia in their
efforts to raise funds for . charity
They have gone to great trouble and
expense to secure the services Of
James Whitcomb Riley, one Of the
worlds greatest poet-humorists. for the
entertainment next Tuesday night.
In connection with other Attractions
he will appear at the opera house at
that time. It is to be hoped that a
perfect eco of faces will greet him.
Aside from the fact that the proceeds
60 to the most worthy of objects, Mr..
Riley will entertain Q Sedalia au.
dience in . manner that it has never
before been entertained. He stands
in the front rank of poet humorists
on the globe. The sale of tickets 60
far has been fair, but not what it
should be. In view Of all tie sur
roundings even standing room should
be At premium. The business men
and citizens generally should see to it
that the ladies are not disappointed.
Let oil the familiar faces be at the
opera house Tuesday night.

tons can be urged, which taken in
connection with the TACT that good
roads are actually cheaper than bod
ones, should cause the people to think
and oct promptly and e6ectually.
We spend $40, 900. 900 annually o.
our common schools. Statistics prove
that An average of 30 per cent of the
pupils are absent on every school day
in the year and that fully three-fourth
of the sbseotees are caused BY bad
roads. At every political election the
question Of good roads has . grave and
important bearing upon the result, for
it has been proven time and again
that bad roads alone have prevented
. full expression OF public sentiment
in different portions of the United
States. It is certainly not . very
pleasing commentary upon the iu-
stitutions of . great nation like our
own to say that the success of IN i'm.
portant political principle may be
placed in jeopardy or to beactually
deferted bv bad roads. There are 16-
0O0. 900 horses and mules in the
United States Say these animals are
kept in the stables only twenty days
in the year on account of bad roads.
1t can be proven without controversy
that there would be . loss of rs cents
each per day upon these animals du-
ring their enforced idleness which
would amount in the aggregate to
$50, 900. 900 which would macada-
mize Is. 900 miles of road.
To i'll ustrste to what ridiculous
ends the perversity of the human
mind will sometimes lead. some one
has called attention to the fact that
. half loaded wagon stalled in the
mud in the shadow of the twenty
million dollar state house at Albany
New York. and that the farmers Of
Albany county. in that state were
sending kilograms 10 the legislature
asking for the adjournment of com
mittee because the roads were too bad
to permit them to get to town in
time to oppose bill that sought to
make them better.
