CANDLEMAS OR GROUND HOG DAY.
Next Saturday, Feb. 2, is Candlemas
day, known also as 1.-The Publication of
the Blessed Virgin "Christ's Presenta-
ton at the Temple" and in England as
The Wives Feast" 1t is a festival in
the Anglican, Roman and Greek church
es. 1t being the fortieth day after the
birth of Christ, was the day on which.
according to LeVitieal rules, the puriff-
cation of the mother and the presentation
of the son should occur The special
service in the Catholic church consists of
the blessing of candles and their distri-
button among the people. On Candle
mas eve Christmas greens must be taken
down. In European countries Candlemas
was notably a great day for weather
representations. There are numerous
rhymes in existence embodying this su-
perstition. The Germans brought to
America the badger, or ground hog su-
perstitton about it coming and seeing
its shadow or not. Feb. 1st is dedicat-
ed in the Catholic church to ST. Bridget
or Bride, the patroness saint of Ireland.
She was the founder of a former large
sisterhood in the church, and many won
ders are told Of her.

basket of fruit, and when any of tho
fruit is taken away he barks without

hiss and spring, steel spider that runs
on a table, always toward the center.

year after the coming to power of Charles
II. The followers of Cromwell organized
society to rejoice over the death of
the king, and it was in existence for
many years. Their meetings were in pri-
vate. Public opposition gradually de-
veloped and in 1772 an attempt was made
in the house of commons TO abolish tho
service in the prayer book but it was
lost by a vote of 81 to 125. Among the
