Lent.

Lent, which this year begins

Easter March 30. includes 40 days,
the religious observance of which
lis believed by many to be of apos-
tolic origin, and by others TO be an
ecclesiasticaI Institution in remem.
brance of Christ's fast
The particular attention paid to
Lent for centuries by at least the
Catholics and Episcopalians. has
been followed of late years in some
cities by its observance by other
religious denominations. including
we believe, the Methodist and
Presbyterian. To refrain from
worldly pleasures for forty days,
and turn the mind to meditation
and prayer, is not to be regarded
as harmful in any view, and Lent
is likely to appeal with more and
more force to mankind as the world
grows better.
In the seventeenth century Pas
sion Sunday. the fourth Sabbath
in Lent, was marked by the eet-
ing of peas aud beans. usually
fried, although SHELTON. whose
writings are not entirely free from
sarcasm, wrote:
In holy Lenton Season,
Ye will neither Beans nor Peason
But ye look TO be let loose.
