AN ANCIENT CUSTOM.
Tho Giving OF Coiored Eggs Among the
Early Peoples.

Larry itOpie>.
Eleanor A. Burnet asked awhile ago
why eggs are used at Easter time. The
fact is. the custom dates so far back
that l think nobody knows just how or
when or where it originated We are
told that the Jews always used eggs at
the Passover feast, SO they We're called
Pasch eggs; and as our Easter corre-
spends with the Jewish Passover the
practice was continued Ii is said that
the Persians, also, when they keep the
festival of the solar new year, in
March, present each other with colored
eggs; and SO the pretty custom has
been handed down and passed on to
our day; and we give to our friends all
sorts Of beautiful colored eggs. and
dainty devices in the shape of eggs for
Easter gifts, hardly knowing why.
With us the Easter egg has come to
be symbol of life from the dead. As
life springs from the apparently lifeless
egg, and as now nature wakes from .
sleep that has seemed all winter like
death, so we may know that when our
bodies are laid away in the grave
there is just as surely resurrection
for US as there was for the body of our
Saviour when He broke the bonds Of the
tomb upon that glorious Easter day SO
many years ago. Let us all keep that
thought with US as we prepare our lit
tie Easter tokens, and see how much
sweeter and gladdcr it will make the
