Long before the Christian era the
festival was observed, says the Mont,
real Herald, as the season of rejoicing
when the life imprisoned in the frozen
earth broke forth into the sunlight
and the first shoots of grass peerCd
above the barren soil. 1t was then the
festival of the goddess Eastre. or Hes.
tn. who typified the revivifying power
of nature and who was symbOlized in
heather days by the egg, the most
complete type of hidden life. When
man became Christianized, he still
clung to the old season of rejoicing,
and this led the early fathers of the
church to add Eastre's day to the list
of Christian holy days.
But in doing so they impaired to it Il
deeper and holier significance. Instead
of merely commemorative the awak.
ening of nature to the sun they cclc.
Drated on it the resurrection of the
Lord and his awakening from the
dead. Yet many of the old heathCn
customs still cling to Easter. The
Easter egg is only the successor OF
Eastre's egg, which the votaries of
that joyous goddess gave to each other
on her festal day. The Easter lily is
but the stately des cendant of the tiny
white crocus, which is the first flower
to thrust upward Its sturdy blossoms
through the frpZen soil and which was
the one to decorate tile altar. The hot
cross bun is a survival of the little
cakes marked with the tau" or sign
of life, which Punic housewives baked
for their children OH this old time hOli-
day. Back as far as mans record eX-
tends Easter has been holiday.

EASTEk'S BEAUTY BLOOM.
FavOrite Flowers of the Queen Fes-
tivul of ChristendOm.

Easter is essentially an artistic hOli-
day and prc-cminently Il day of flow
ers. Nothing is so beautiful as the
great spring miracle, the budding of
life and bloom out of the bare, brown
branches that seemed like so many
dead things during winter. Every
bright spring day now the crowds Of
prOmenaders, men and women, big
and little, show Il responsiveness to the
rcawakcning of the earth, and florists
windows and sidewalks give promise
of the abundance of flowers soon to be
Preparations for Easter the crown of
the flower season says the Philadel
phia Times, are b gun by the florists
many weeks before the day actually
arrives, and the SmarteSt shops in
town are all receiving their orders
now.
What flowers are the peoples favor
ties? First and foremost the lily, EaS-
ter's symbolic flower. Thousands of
people who buy and enjoy the Bcrmu-
da lilies have little idea what an cX-
tcnSive business the propagation of
these lovely spring flowers has become.
The bulbs are shipped from Bermuda
in great quantities during the autumn
and winter and placed in greenhouses
to he developed into the lovely plant
which has become symbolic of Easter.
AS to the number of these bulbs now
produced in Bermuda and shipped TO
the United States for Easter purposes
it Is said that between 10O00,OOO and
lJ,OUO,uOO bulbs were sent last year.
The enormous quantities of Easter
lilies produced happily place a plant
within the reach OF the most modest
purse. This Easter plants can prOba-
bly, be secured at all prices varying
from so cents upward, so that bun
