Eggs and Easter.

Eggs have become the type of
the Easter festival, says a dealer,
"but they were first used by the pa
CONS as the symbol of spring, whose
name, Eostre, the Christians took
for their festival. Naturally, the
egg symbolized the resurrection OF
Jesus, who, according to one old
writer, broke forth from the grave
as a chicken from the she'll In
early times the eggs were colored
red to typify the blood of redemp-
ton. AS the early church prohib-
tied the eating of eggs in Lent, and
as heretical hens continued laying
the usual fruit, it was a happy
thought thus to utilize the surplus
product. But before the Christians,
the Saxons, the Celtic Druids and
the Romans all had their egg wor-
ships and egg games. The use of
eggs for food, anyway, has been
aptLy characterized as a direct in
reference with the intentions of
Nature.

A Drummer's story about GallipOIis
Girls.
A we'll known drummer who
spends Sunday here occasionally
relates a capital story shows in a
very strong light the idiosyncrasies
of the Gallipolis girls, the truthful
ness of which we do not pretend to
vouch for in the least particular.
The story is thas when one of these
damsels finds drummer whose at
fractions are worth an effort to gain,
the girls at once begins to plan for
a temporary possession of his hat
for the the purpose ofobtaining the
bow which holds the inside band
together, this once in her possess
ion then she has her subject mes
merized completely so 10 speak. Sc
common had this grown that doz
en- or more knights of the griI
sought to investigate what this in.
significant piece of their apparel
could have to do in winning a heart
aud by aid of some of the married
ladies the conundrum was solved
1t appears that there is legend OIL
fairy story TO the effect that if CIR
wants to get her fellow under con
troll all she has to do is to get poss
ession of this aforesaid bow, secure
ly fasten it to her stocking-where
abouts it don't say-and then h,
becomes her foot ball of destiny
Gallipolis girls heard it, concluded
to try it and say that it works NOR,
perfect than any other charm tina
lovers have; hence the rage in tina
town. Now when drummer striker
Gallipolis the first thing he does i
to see that his hat is carefully stow
ed away where no prying love sicl
girl can can ever find it, if not h
knows that within two hours hi
hat bow will be clinging to the to-
of some Gallipolis girls stocking.
