The Paschal Egg.

The resurrection took place just aftel
the Jewish feast of the Passover, which
was held on the 18th day Of the moon
being approximately the time of the full
moon or what is termed the paschal full
moon. The word Easter-old English,
Eastre; German, Ostern-means the fes
tival named from the Teuton goddess OF
spring, Austro.
The custom of distributing the "pascha
ege" has been almost always universal
among Christians, and for centuries chill.

The paschal eggs, which have formed Q

A Wonderful Discovery.

Broadland, S. Oak, March 2S.-
Quite a sensation has been created here
by the publication Of the story Of G..
W. Gray, who, after a special treat.
ment for three months, was PROSTATE
and helpless and given up to die with
Bright's Disease. Bright's Disease has
always been considered incurable, but
evidently from the story told by Mr..
Gray there is remedy which will cure
it even in the most advanced stages.
This is what he says:
Il was helpless as little babe. My
wife and 1 searched everything and
read everything we could find about
Bright's Disease, hoping that would
be able to find a remedy. After many
failures my wife insisted that I should
try Dodd's Kidney Pills. praise God
for the day when decided to do so,
for this remedy met every phase of my
case and in a short time was able to
get out Of bed, and after few weeks
treatment 1 was strong, well man.
Dodd's Kidney Pills saved my life"
A remedy that will cure Bright's
Disease will cure any lesser Kidney
Disease DOdd's Kidney Pills are cer-
tainly the most wonderful discovery
which modern medical research has
given to the world.

friends, William. Mr. Jerome, this is
my brother, Of whom you have often
heard me speak,"
He remembered perfectly. William
was her Older brother and had planned to

MY health would not permit it." Mr..
Blake explained. He had overruled
Francis objections to going to the par
sonage, and they were on their way
thither. "It's all right, though. This
work up here is the Masters Yes, it's
lonely in a way, but Mildred and l are
too busy and too glad that we can tell
the story of the risen Christ to mind
The parsonage was tiny house, but
the rooms were cozy and dainty The two
men sat before the open fire and talked
until Mildred summoned them to dinner.
The roughly plastered walls of the din
ing room were tinted Il soft gray. making
an effective background for the green
vines which wreathed the pictures. The
table was spread with lavender and
white china and family silver. There
were soup. cold meat with vegetables, a
salad. coffee and nuts.
During the afternoon Mildred and her
brother listened to the story of Francis
Jerome's success. The woman sat with
her eyes fixed upon the leaping flames,
and her face gave no hint of her
thoughts.
There was no evening service at the
church, as Mr. Blake went out in the
country 10 preach. Rain was falling,
so he did not urge Francis to accom-
pany him.
Indeed you are not to go back to the
hotel. Mildred will entertain You, and
will return early"
So it came about that he sat opposite
Mildred. while outside the rising wind
drove the rain against the windows.
Conversation Jagged, and at last silence
fell between them.
The mind of Jerome was occupied
with one question. Had he made a mis-
take? Not in one way. for his success
was assured. Was it too late to right
the wrong he had done Mildred? He
rose and crossed to her side.
Mildred. l have never loved any
woman but you. let the busy, grinding

ORIENTAL TABLE LINENS

Chinese Grass Linen Embroidered In
Grass Designs.
As in everything else, from wearing
apparel to house furnishing goods,
fashions in table linen show decided
trend toward Oriental effects, tenn
pered, however, by American ideas in
decoration. Not only is the Oriental
fancy exhibited in the exquisite and
delicate Armenian work, but in the
rich-lOOking and elegant table sets in
white and blue Chinese grass linen-a
beautiful Observation-Disclosures all over
in dragon designs. roses, cherries and
carnations.
Fine and lovely as these several
styles Of table pieces are, they possess
that quality SO appreciated by the
housewife capacity for coming out
Of the laundry as smooth and dainty as
before they were put to use. This can
not be said of other more expensive
and elaborate table sets of rich and
fine laces, which require great care
during the cleansing process in order
to preserve their beauty. Most fash
ionable among these, for the coming
season, are such old favorites as duch-
esse lace and point de Venise, with the
0ld-fashioned cut work-called by
many Irish point
For general use nothing will be more
popular during the months to come
than Irish linen in various qualities
embroidered in white mercerized cotton
in dainty designs of shamrocks, fieur-
de-lis, forget-me-nots. daisies, bow
knots, chrysanthemums and graduated
dots, Of which pretty patterns the
shamrock, feur-de-lis and forget-me-
not are most popular.
It win be observable that ornamental
designs upon table cloths and pieces
for the coming season are small and
scattered daintily over the linen at in

The Lily and the Trinity,

There is special reason why the lily
is appropriate to the great Christian fes
tival. Lilies grow in threes or multi
pies of threes, and are thus emblematic
Of the Trinity. In many old churches
the three petaled lily is carved as q
trinitarian symbol. This form Of lily
is seen in the golden feur-de-lis of impe-
rial France. The common lily has six
petals in two whOrls of three each, with
six stamens, single pistil divided into
three and three-valved seed capsule.
The history of the lily as associated with
religious ceremonials excludes all species
except the white lily from connection
with the Easter services.

A stone with remarkable history Is
kept at the British naval offices in

PiQue ran ashore OH the Japanese
coast, but was refloated in what was
thought to be an undamaged condition.
1t proceeded to Portsmouth and was

position during the homeward run there
is little doubt that the Pique would
