door they will ask for the final sacra-
ments of the church, which will be
charitably administered and no re-

persons, from sense of what is So
clally pleasant, also ask for the last
consultations. They do so for the sake
of those whom they are about to leave
behind, and because it is most con-
venient for friends to gather round a
coffin in a church. Provincial ladies
gather to Paris to confess to priests
who do not know them, and to con-
suit spiritual directors of broad and

rites as incantations, and who see that
symbols are only important so far as
they raise the soul to a perception of
eternal truths. The French branch of

A DAY TO REJOICE IN.

The observance of Easter Sunday
memorial of the central fact in the
Christian religion, but gives occasion
for a variety of beautiful customs.
With the earth bursting forth in its
glories of budding plant life, and the
heavens glowing with a warmer sun,
and all nature smiling through the
fresh fragrance and subtle warmth, it
is fitting season for the chief festi-
val of the Christian year. THE Bright
Day in the East" is the bright day in
the west, and wherever the sun shines
the ancient rites of the Saxon goddess,
Easter, born in paganism, have been
assimilated and given new meaning
in the Christian civilization of this
later day
The gaudy decorations of the
heather races, which were the tangible
expression of their festival delights,
nave an ample suggestion in the per-
sonal display that is now one of the
attributes of the Paschal feast. No
pagan goddess could address herself
more directly to the preparation OF
her Easter raiment than the woman of
today to the selection of her Easter
costume. But no idle variety mars
the delights of the present custom.
BY most desirable consensus this day
Is reserved for the first appearance in
the garments of spring, and as if
sWayed by magic Christian wand the
dark and heavy attire of winter falls
away and there stand revealed the be-
wlldering beauties of new life.
From the. rising of the sun. the first
symbolic event of the day, there is a
series OF events that compliment each
other in testifying to the more serious
import. No memory is more lively in
AFTER years than that furnished bv the
various egg customs of Easter handed

tom Is more directly suggestive of the
new life it typifies But through them

EASTER DATE.

In accordance with a bull issued by
the council of Nicaea, in 325 A. d.
Easter cannot occur later than April
%. This canon sets forth that Easter
must be celebrated on the first Sunday
after the first full moon OF the spring.
The earliest date for the full moon is
March p, and the cyclical month, or
the period of time within which the
Easter full moon can occur comprises
80 days. Therefore, Easter could come
as late as April %, for the last win
ter full moon may happen as late as
March 21 Add TO this 90 days. and
one has so days, or April 10 as the day
of the spring full moon. Should this
date fall upon a Sunday, Easter must
be celebrated seven days later, or on
the 26th of April
In his Astronomical Lexicon. Dr.
Gretschel gives April &c as the latest
possible Easter date. This book was
published in 1882 and the year 1886 is
named as the anomaly that brings
Easter as late as April 20. AS matter
of fact however, Easter occurred in
that year on April 5, and it is rather
interesting to explain this departure
from what seems TO correct computa-
ton.
An ecclesiastical canon excludes
April 20 from becoming an Easter day.
Littrow, in his Astronomy" declares
that April 19 must be substituted. Nes-
selmann's theory is that the earliest
date should be chosen. or March %. In
his compilation of date Nesselmaun
designates the year 2O76 as the one in
which Easter occurs on the latest nos
sibie date, April 70. and in mis- chronol-
ogy this date is adopted. CAUSES for
mula brings Easter Sunday as late as
April 26 in the year 1881. The wear
1909 was the last in which Easter oc-
cured on April %.
It happens rarely that Easter sun
day occurs on April %. 1t so happened
In 1884, as in 1886, and will not again
occur until the year l94S.
The Easter full moon may fall with
IN period Of 80 days. Despite this
space OF time. it can only occur on 10
different dates within span of f0OI
years. These 10 different dates occur
nEe or six times as Easter full moon
dates in a century. The other III
dates are entirely excluded. Every
century this line of 10 Easter full
moon dates undergoes a change An
absolutely correct ratio, however. can
not be established, even for the space
OF LOCO years, because the Easterl
dates do not occur periodically IN IN

lance between the two days which
limit the Easter perlod-March p and
April 25-is "a days, nearly five weeks.
AS the weather is even more uncertain
than the Easter date, and the season OF
one year may be ahead, as in this in
stance, or behind that of another, the
greatest possible contrast may exist
between the Easter festival of two or
three years Easter may be a day
filled with the splendor of the
awakening nature, with sunshine and
balmy breezes, spring bonnets and
summer clothes. On the other hand,
snow and sleet may cover the ground
and furs may be as welcome as in
December.

In Paris, Easter is time OF general
the gardens are in full LEAKAGE, but the
leaves are still of the most fresh and

taliZing force permeates things ma

smiles in the rooms that look south

the ceilings like Ariels released from

conventional mourning, religious cere-

Palm Sunday began to pour in as that
festival approached. The supply of
flowers goes on increasing until Easter
