Easter Eggs.

1t is said that eggs, rabbits and lilies
rule at Easter. These three emblema
of the season certainly furnish great
amount of merriment and gladness, as
the festivities of the occasion depend
largely on a full supply of them. The
practice of using eggs is traced back to
the ancient Greeks and Egyptians, as
well as to the RomaDs and Gauls, who
taught their people 10 look upon the
egg as a symbol of divinity. The gift
giving of eggs at Easts- is an cid GUS
tom derived from tbs Persians, who
exchanged eggs at their New Years
feasts-that is, at the beginning Of
their agricultural year--in 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
with floral decorations. Visitors arr
invited to partakc of Easter eggs as o
special act of courtesy.-Detroit Free

wilt Thou have pity and show that
soul Thyself? If there is any heart
here that has buried all it's good or all
its worth to humanity under any stone
of self, wilt Thou in tender mercy roll
the stone away, and bid the dead come
forth to living work, and to God?"
And that word was for Isabel Mer-
rill. Alone in her own room, she gave
the afternoon to look at her stone.
From her sealed heart she drew out its
self-pity, its neglect of others, and held
them up in the light. She saw how
many talents had been committed to
her, and that she had buried them un-
der her selfishness. Deep humility took
possession of her that grew at last into
a longing desire that this Easter day
might become her awakening.
That evening the glad praise service
seemed all for her. After it she walked
homeward with the caller of the day
before.
did you say those Wright children
were going to the poorhouse?" she
asked at parting.
II suppose so, yes, unless some one
offers to take them"
Miss Merrill found Martha in the
conservatory Strengthening up plant
the cat had thrown over.
Martha, am thirty-ave years old,
am not?'
"You should know, surely"
sand that is years of discretion is
il not?"
with some, yes"
Martha, ! am going to adopt two
children"
THE Lord be praised, ma'am. A
body with a big house, and money in
the bank, and lonesome heart, is to
be pitied."
Another Easter day comes around to
the pleasant home on the hill, but Miss
Isabel finds brief time for her morning

upon it's polished surface, and handed
Miss Merrill note. She looked up
from its reading with shadow of a
frown.

1t is so large now it disturbs it sadly.
1t did not recover from the effects OF
the removal last year for three months,
and said then it should not be taken

both face and tone belied the more
gracious words: "Yes, tell them they
may have it. But will send it my
self; at least it will fare better in
David's hands. What does it matter,
anyway" bitterly.
The caller was watching the shabby
boy down the street.

Had her caller been one of the .'wise

opportunity. Instead, being somewhat
In awe of Miss Merrill, she went her
way, and the mistress turned back,
through the wide doors, across the
broad hall and the long, sunny sitting
room into the small conservatory where
the fresh green of leaves and the bril-
liant blossoms spoke of love and tend
ance. All around its upper border
lay the thick, green leaves of beau
tiful ivy, and, as Miss Isabel from her
high step unloosed the many loops that
held the swaying vine in place, her
thoughts went back over its history.
