Easter Eggs.

There is no country where eggs are
used more lavishly than in America,
where the president gives the children
Of Washing ton the freedom of the
white house grounds on Easter Mon
day, and thousands of them gather
there in an egg-rolling contest, which
is as democratic festival as one could
we'll imagine, where black and white,
street Arab and aristocrat, play side
by side, matching eggs or picking
them, that is, cracking them together
till one shell! breaks the other or both
ale cracked, and they become mass
IF crumpled shells, when the egg part
IS soon scooped out and eaten with
much satisfaction. The eggs are all
the colors of the rainbow, and are
brought in baskets, in pockets, in hem
pers, and in nets. A great mpny people
in carriages and OH foot stop to look
on. The custom of rolling eggs down
bill is very old one. and is practiccd
in many parts of England.-Detroit

she a murdcress at heart? Oh, no, no.
But if she had only stood firm and never
yielded to Kings entreaties. The very
fact that she was bound to him made
her turn from him. These conflicting
feelings told upon her health and
spirits. And then, one day, her hus-
band came IN, holding n letter. lie
went straight to her, and taking her
bands in his, said:
Barbara, don't think that / have
been blind. DO you think that would
hold you to yonr word now? l am
ordered to China at once. After n
proper absence, you can apply for and
obtain a divorce"
barbara burst into tears as he went
on in his considcrate, thoughtful plans
for her comfort, with never hint of
his own pain.
She had horror Of divorce. Let
them be separated for awhile, anyway,
she murmured to herself.
King went off on his three years
cruise, then on another to Australia.
Mr.. Lippincott finally took Barbara
abroad. 1t was then, and while far
away in Australia. that King received
q fresh stab. a comrade of his, u
brother officer, was reading aloud a
letter from correspondent IN Naples:

wrote, "chaperoning a wealthy scion OF

King wrote ut once, after his long
silence, to Barbara. urging divorce.
lie felt thai he knew her so well, and
could picture her mental distress and
scruples against her love for this appar-
emily charming young stranger. King
had aged somewhat, and his friends
declared he was much less jolly since
his long illness. He never spoke of him
self. but he knew that all real happiness
had vanished for hm-the romance OF
his life was over, and he was often
tempted to curse his return to health
But he devoted himself to his loved pro-
fession and had risen in it. His love
for Barbara was chivalric and constant
as any knights of old; but, above all
he longed for her to be happy, at any
sacrifice to himself. He was to return
to New York, and Barbara's answer was
to be sent there. AS the time drew
near. he could neither eatnor sleep. He
knew it would be the end of all his

and had fought against it. She was \
noble woman. yet how could she help
rebelling against bondage which the
one who loved her best In all the worlt;
had brought upon her! Slowly the ves-
sci steamed into port-a letter might
await him.
He held IL in his hand-that wen.
known, plain chirography-and the
strong man felt as weak as child. With
muttered disdain, he tore it open. The
words danced before his eyes at first,
and then he read:

The shock of finding a young boy here really

And so IL was that our commander
did not come to Akenside alone. The
boys stood around the door and gate
way OF our little stone church to see
their hero come in-so tall, so COM

eyes had a subdued CLEAN of laughter.

only he were poor, her motives would
be understood; but-well, what did
she care il her own heart was right?
And she would give il all away and
help everybody. all in his name. And
yet, marriage was such sacred thing.
So poor Barbara tossed and turned and
reasoned and changed her mind, and
the upshot OF it all was that there was
O very solemn and quiet marriage cere-
mony, and at its close the pale, sweet
faced bride was Mrs. West.
Mr.. Lippincott consented-he loved
this adopted son sincerely-and, indeed,
he never had refused any request of
his idol, Barbara. So the days went on.
Happiness seemed to revive Kings
waning strength for time, and then he
grew slowly worse. Suddenly upon the
scene came most important actor,
college friend of Kings. whose friend
ship was of that ardor almost lover
like in its intensity. He had heard late
ly of his friends condition, and had
come to urge upon him an Arabian rem
edy which had been given him by an
uncle, whose life had been passed in
the Orient. a native, whose life he had
saved, had presented it to him.
With no faith, but partly to please
his friend, partly because dying man
catches at any straw which will pre-
serve life, King followed the prescrip-
ton and treatment, and, to everyone's
he improved, ond, after
many weeks, was restored to his old
vigor OF course, few gave credit to this
remedy; few knew IL; but, whatever
j; was, the young man recovered.
And then to Barbara came the shock
of finding that the restored life of her
old friend meant bondage to her. Was

THE EASTER MORN.

All hail the gladstone Easter morn.
For which the springtime's flowers are
born;
Earth wears her gayest robes to-day,
And casts her Lenten garb away.
Ring out! ring clear!
Ring far and near.
Oh. bells In steeples high!
Ring in the dawn
or Easter morn,
Beneath the springtime sky!
Bloom. lilies, on your slender stems,
To crown the day like diadems,
And, lifting up your petals white.
Make Easter affairs glad and bright
While ring SO clear.
From far and near.
The bells in steeples high,
And glad hearts raise
Their songs Of praise
Beneath n springtime's sky.

Then he was u naval officer, and he had
had q romance, which keenly interested
the young people especially.
He had never visited our little town
since he had left it that memorable day
after his unfortunate marriage. Ru-
mors of this and that had reached the
ears Of the good folk of Akenside, but
il was from an intimate friend of Bar
.bara Lippincott that heard the story.
The COMMUNICATING Wcst--was
early left alone in the world, and made
his home during holiday times at the
Lippincotts'. who were old friends of
his mother. lie was at college with
Ned Lippincott, and then was suddenly
seized with the fever to be n sailor. An
Influential friend of his fathers gained
him the appointments; he passed the
requisite examination, and entered the
Naval academy. He had graduated,
and was about to enter upon his new
duties. when his health suddenly failed.
1t was not uncommon story of q fine
physique and perfect health ruined by
persistent disregard of all hygienic
rules. He came to the only home he
had known for years, as everyone
thought, to die. He did not give up
without desperate struggle. lie con-
suited the best physicians, who all
agreed that his case was hopeless. Mrs.
lippncott having died within the year,
Barbara. the only daughter, his life
long playmate and friend, was his un-
firing nurse. 1t was his only consola-
ton. She was so sympathetic, so ear
nest, so beautiful. King lay there one
day watching the pretty figure in the
perfectly-ftting mourning dress, which
brought out with startling clearness
the golden hair, deep blue eyes and fair
skin of Barbara Lippincott.
Bah. come here, will you?" he asked.
Something new in his tone made the
girl look at him apprehensivcly as she
obeyed him. He was lying OH the low
couch, and she sat on n cushion beside
him. The contrast between the strong
man so familiar to her and the one she
saw now made her voice very tender,
as she asked:
Can do anything for you, King?"
