II Is said that eggs. rabbits and lilies
rule at Easter. These three emblcms
Of the season certainly furnish a great
amount of merriment and gladness. as
the festivities Of the occasion depend
largely on full supply of them The
practice of using eggs is traced back to
the ancient Greeks and Egyptians as
well as to the Romans and Gauls, who
taught their people TO look upon the
egg as symbol Of divinity. The gift
giving Of eggs at Easter is an old Gus
tom derived from the Persians, who
exchanged eggs at their New Years
feasts-that is. at the beginning OF
their agricultural year-;n token Of a
renewal Of vernal life The Jewish
people used the egg in the feast of the
passover, and even the ancient Druids
performed their religious rites with
ceremonies of egg symbols In Italy
eggs are carried to church and blessed,
after which they are used on the table

ITS EFFECT.


The Predictions Of Free wool Men Thor.
oughly Sustained.
Abraham Mills. the well-known wool
merchant. prepared for the New York
chamber of commerce the following re-
view Of the wool trade Of America for
the year 1894:
The passage of the free-wool tari&
bill by congress in August, 1924. consti-
of the wool trade, not only of this
country but of the whole world. 1t 10
no small event when seventy million
of pre-eminently industrial people
abandon the policy of generation,
after long discussion and against the
bitter opposition of classes greatly
concerned in the maintenance of con.
dition of things in which their interests
were heavily involved. and in which
they were intrenched by years Of favor
able legislation. The elimination Of
protection came with the Nc Kinley bill
of 1890. and its repeal quickly followed.
Since last autumn. therefore, we have
had to face the novel experiment Of
free wool and moderate duties upon
goods. and to discover whether those
who have struggled during business
lifetime for this position are right or
wrong. The result of the six months
past seems to be in favor of the con-
tention that free wool is of immense
advantage to the American manufac-
turer and to that greatest of all
classes. the American consumer.
With an almost prohibitory duty upon
foreign wool, the American article was
alone freely available to our manufac-
turers. and had to be ms de the best Of.
even when unsuitable for desired re-
suits Foreign manufacturers were
thus left free to select the most suit
able woods for every purpose, and At
abnormally low prices, owing to the
absence of American competition. This
condition enabled them to fight suc-
cessfully high tariff upon goods, and
to pour them into our markets UNI
checked by even the Mckinley bill
| This is no longer the case. Our manu-
facturers have now free choice Of the
woods Of the world and of its by-prod-
ucts, and they can 1T length secure the
identical cheap raw material which
formerly their foreign competitors 50
successfully used against them. The
course Of the trade since the new tariff
has thoroughly sustained the predic-
ton of the free WOO. men. No mills
have been closed, but more machinery
has been started up. and the natural
apprehension Of our mill owners has
given way to great confidence as to the
future. They do not CLAIM ira; profits
are larger or even reasonable. but they
do maintain they can hold their own,
and do more. when they hare had time
to better adapt themselves tothe novel
conditions and when the country ~
sumes its normal prosperity

examined the soap on the end of it To
see what kind of substance it brought
up and had placed it again in the rack
a. the side of the rail. out of curiosity l.,
too, examined it. Looking at the end
where the soap is put l saw through
the dark gray clay which the lead had
brought up from the bottom something
glisten. and. taking out my knife, dug
into the soft substance and drew forth
this gold piece. II was edgeways in
the soap at the end Of the lead and in
no other way could it have got there
than by being picked up from the bot
tom"
As he held the gold piece in his hand
and afterward passed it TO the passen-
gers to examine il could be seen that il
was covered with soap and was dull in
appearance. The water where il is as
serted the coin was taken was about
one hundred and fifty feet deep. AN
Of the passengers soon heard Of the find.
