For Eastertide.

Happy Eastertide brings to all-rich
and poor alike-its message of hope
and cheer, and even the most matter
of-fact delight to honor the joyous sea-
son with all things bright and beauti-
full. Before it comes we love to think
of it, to plan for it,-each in his indi-
vidual way--and that everything
should assume an Easter dress and
brightness is but a natural result of the
all-pervadlng spirit of the festival.
Even the books proclaim the near add
vent of the suspicious time. DEMoR-
lists MAGAZINE comes to us in Easter
dress, and with Easter pictures and
poems, and general "springy" charac-
ter, makes one Immediately feel in ac-
cord with the season. The first article,
"Flower Fetes and Pageants," intro
duces us to all the lands where Flora
is feted during the months of her reign,
and plctorlally one becomes intimately
acquainted with favorite spot in her
kingdom, Southern California. "Ber-
muda, the Beautiful" transports one
to the land OF the Easter lily, where
miles and miles OF lily-fields furnish
the "pure, proud lilies" for the adorn-
ment of our churches.
