Eggs and Easter.

Eggs have become the type of The
Easter festival" says dealer, "but
they were first used by the pagans as
the symbol of spring, whose name,
Eostre, the Christians took for their
festival. Naturally, the egg symbol
lied the resurrection of Jesus, who,
according to one old writer. broke
forth from the grave as chicken
from the she'll In early times the
eggs were all colored red to typify the
blood of redemption. AS the early
church prohibited the eating Of eggs
in Lent, and as the heretical hens con-
tinued laying the usual fruit, it was
happy thought thus to utilize the sur
plus product. But before the Chris
tians, the Saxol 8, the Celtic Druids
and the Romans NIL had their egg
worships and egg games. Phe use OF
eggs for fool, anyway, has been aptly
characterized as "a direct interference
with the intentions OF Nature. ,"

An Old English Easter Custom.

There has been a lively discussion OF
the ancient custom of Citing and
'heaving' among British antiquarians,
and it has come to light that women
were lifted by the men and men lifted
by the women on Monday and Tues
day after Easter Sunday. The prac-
tice is supposed to have been rude
memorial of the resurrection. Women
met in the street or elsewhere on
Easter Monday were seized and tossed
in the air. Kissing sometimes accom-
panied the lifting, and was sometimes
the penalty of exemption. Next day
the women treated the men in like
fashion, and exacted a fine of sixpence
for each man spared. Edward L. was
caught in his bed, about 800 years
ago, by seven ladies of the court, and
made to pay fine of 9l4 before the
ladies promised to desist from heav-
ing the royal person. There seems to
be q trace of this old custom in the
schoolboy game OF carrying out the
teacher" upon one day of the year.
This custom prevails in certain parts
of the United States, and the master
who resists is likely to have rude
encounter with his pupils.

Faster Lilies.

Perhaps we cannot spend Easter
Sunday better than in longing for its
power, the power of His resurrection,
for which Paul prayed and which he
received. What a power Chrlst'S res
direction was in the soul Of st. Paul !
In gave him triumph in tribulation.
In weakness it made him strong. 1t
made him the noted missionary of the
Christian world, eager, enthusiastic,
confident, triumphant. Through
Christ he could do all things. Where
is the power of Christ's resurrection
in us? Where is our victory? Where
is our mission? What depths OF sin
are we reaching and cleansing?
Oh. for more Easter lilies, flowers
of white peace and fragrant purity to
be massed, not in snowy banks within
Gothic walls before consecrated al
tars, but to be scattered from full
hands on bare streets, before dens Of
vice, in halls where men devise trea-
son against society, in council cham
bers where premiers plot war; Come
out of the church, ye lilies, and ye
priests and ye peoplel Go to the
drunkard, the Nihilist, the pauper'
the millionaire, and tellt hem Of Him
who die1!, who rose again, whose right
it is to reign, and whose reign shall
bring peace and bliss!

Easter Sunday.

The word "Easter" is from the Ger
man "ostern," old saxony "oster"
(rising). Easter is therefore the
Christian passover or festival OF the
resurrection of Christ. The English
name for the day is probably derived
from that of the Teutonic goddess Os-
tern, or Eostre, whose festival oc-
Cured about the same time as the cele-
bration of Easter. The time of cele-
brating the festival was a subject
which gave rise to heated discussions
in the primitive Christian churches.
The question was fully considered and
finally settled at the Council of Nice
in 325 A. D. for the whole church by
adopting the rule which makes Easter
day the first Sunday after the first full
moon after March 21. Commonly
speaking, it is the "irst Sunday after
the first full moon after the sun crosses
the line.

She will don on Easter-day.

As she marches up the aisle,
With q nameless necromancy
In the sunshine of her smile.
She's the lovelest OF lasses
Ever winged Cupid-dart;
Every gallant. when she passes,
Will have failure Of the heart;
Every belle-my word upon it
Will with jealousy grow gray,
When sweet Bessie in her bonnet
Treads the aisle on yesterday.
