ALLABoUT HOT CROSS BUNS.
Just Who Wanted Them VIII Proba-
bly, Never Be Determined.

JUST Who Wanted Them Will PrOba-
bly, Never Be Determined.
Just how and when the hot cross bun
came into vogue must remain forever
matters of pure conjecture. There are no
less than three absolutely authentic sto-
ries of its origin current today. OF these
the religious story will quite probably be
the one more generally believed and rec
ognized.
The Roman Catholic church and the
Episcopal church declare that in the ear
ly days of the Roman Catholic church il
was a custom for those who were strong
and healthy to send a little cake marked
with the sign of the cross on Good Fri
day to those of their friends and relatives
who had been unable by illness to attend
divine service and witness the raising Of
the host.
In the seventeenth and eighteenth CEN
turtles these little cakes were regarded
with both reverence and awe. 1t was sup
posed that they would never grow moldy.
In households where there were children
they never did.
cross buns originated with the Romans
The word bun, he insists, is derived from
the name of the sacred cake which the
Romans offered every seventh day. The
story of Cecrops, another legend of mag
nanimity, runs like this:
There was a time in Cecrops' career
when he thought it would be to the adj
vaneement of his general career to curry
favor with Jupiter for bit and just see
if he couldn't get some nice, fat little ap-
pointment out of him. Jupiter was rather
under the weather just then. 1t was the
springtime, and Jupiter had fallen a vic
tim to that tired feeling peculiar to the
season.
When Cecrops heard of this, he hurried
down to the kitchen of the palace, seized
a saucepan and the head cooks apron
and proceeded to make a cake. He decid-
ed mentally that it was to be a cake
which should stand without rival in the
worlds annals of culinary art. When it
was finished, Cecrops laid it on a golden
platter and carried it to Jupiter himself
The cake was not much to look at.
The powers of that cake as set forth by
Cecrops in his presentation speech to Jul
piter were marvellous in the extreme. Ce-
crops had made out catalogue of the ills
and accidents which that cake could pre-
vent. Only four Of these powers Of this
original hot cross bun have come down
the ages. They are these: This cake
would never grow moldy, it would ward
away witches, was a sure cure for stom-
ach ache and would protect the house
from fire.-New York Sun.

With the egg and the chrysalis all are
familiar, but in olden times kernels of
grain were also used. In England a tiny
cross, together with grains of barley and
wheat, have been found in the center
block of oaken mantelpieces. The Gus
tom had long been forgotten, when it was
recalled by the discovery of three such
emblems in the mantel of the room in
which Shakespeare was born. The house
was being restored, and one of the COM
missioners in charge took block of the
old wood for souvenir. He gave it to a
friend, a Shakespearean scholar. who,
wishing to share it with another, tried TO
split it and found it hollow. 1t contained
cross, three grains of barley and niece
Of tow. To his honor, be it said, he re-
stored the relic to the house at Stratford-
upon-Avon, where it is now on exhibition.

The spring glove differs somewhat from
those of last season, but it is only In
trifling points, not in general essentials
To conform to the new sleeves the
gloves for the street are of two button
length and are fastened with large pearl
buttons. The tiny glove button is a thing
of the past so far as the immediate fash

convenient button obtains. 1t is the size
of those worn on the Russian gloves of
the winter.
The newest gloves are stitched in black
and are boun with piping of black kid
around the wrists.
Evening gloves also show the large but

white or self color.
The colors most used for day are deem

red, dark electric blue, stone gray, and
other shades of gray and tan which have
been so long popular.

The winter brought to thee.
"This one of black is made of grief,
With border of despair,
And this is fecked with doubt and fear
On a ground OF grayest care.

Till experience takes them down some day
To make them fit to wear.

Woven OF colors gay,
Which shall harmonic with the outer world
