G~ar-.~~1r-.---ar-..--ar.Eg

The ~tversal Easter rejoicings in
olden times were not all because of
the great event which Easter COM
memorates. Old records show that it
was often because the long forty
days fast was over with return to
solid eating once more-not only to
solid eating but for the time to much
feasting
Anciently the paschal or Easter
season extended from the Sunday be-
fore until the Sunday after Easter
proper. On the Holy Thursday be-
fore, called Maunday or Shere Thurs
day, there were services commemora-
tive of Christ's washing the disciples
feet The Pope at Rome, the arch
bishops in various countries, and the
monarchs in England even through
EliZabeth's time had feet washing
services, the necessary accompani-
ment of which was the giving of food
and money to the poor.
On the last day of Lent everybody
in Rome rushes to the Vatican. In
Italy the "sepulchers" in the churches
are watched night and day by people
clad in deep mourning from the dawn
of the Holy Thursday till midday on
Saturday. when the body is supposed
to rise from the grave. The resurrec-
ton is announced by the firing of can
non. the blowing of trumpets and the
ringing of the bells which from the
preceding Thursday have been care
fully tied up to protect them from the
power of the devil.

self are grand, long and many featured
throughout Catholic Christendom, but
anciently these were barely over be-
fore secular performances began.
For many years, and perhaps even
to-day, the first dish brought to the
table on Easter day at Queens col
lege. Oxford, was red herring fixed to
resemble a man, put astride corn
salad, riding away on horseback This
is said to be a remnant of the old
pageants which were exhibited in the
popular rejoicings that Lent was over.
Children in. England. as at Wash
ington, go out and roll eggs on
lawn or in field, some rolling them
like bowls, some throwing them up in
the air like balls. The chief glory of
a paste egg to boy who wants to

gain a conquest with his egg chal-
lenges companion to give blow for

There was an accusing voice in the
swelling notes of the big pipe organ.
Peal upon peal of denunciation rolled
out into the dim-aisled church and re-
verberated back from the vaulted cell
ing. all its solemn impeachment seem
ing finally to center itself in the pew
occupied by the stately Miss Weyman.
She trembled under the stormy ar
raignment. She looked back over her
life with shudder and realized for
the first time its utter selfishness.
There were no crimes of commission
upon her spotless life, but what had
she done to make the world brighter
or better? Nothing! The answer
seemed to come in mighty anger from
the big organ, rather than from her
own inner consciousness.
Bred in luxury and reared in idle
ness, what had she ever accomplished
with the ten talents that the Master
had given her? Her charities? She
had given much out of her abundance,
but she had never given so much as
crumb of bread that meant sacrifice
of one moments comfort. Selfshness,
selfishness. selfishness. 1t was the
keynote of her life-and the whole
message of the big organ that morn
ing.
The sun presently shot through a
great stained-glass window that cast
a flood of golden light athwart Miss
Weyman's pew, and that same mo-
ment the thunderous rebuke of the
organ ceased, and in its place came a
strain of pleading harmony and then
sweet, clear note of humble praise
with sorrowful undertone that car
ried with it a suggestion of the agony
o. the cross.
She glanced up and a bright smile
from the choir turned her cheeks
aflame. There was her guilt of sell
fishness! She realized now that this
was the thing that had lain dormant
upon her conscience for so long. And
/: there must be her sacrifice. She
turned faint and almost cried out at
the thought. He belonged to heri
He belonged to her! For five long
years they had been as good as be-
trothed and for two years she had
worn his ring, waiting, waiting until
his pride should be satisfied with the
measure of success he had set him
self to accomplish before marriage.
And the time had almost come.
Two years. But in that time her
younger sister, Grace, had suddenly
bioomed into womanhood, She turned

Russian Forces in Korea.

London. March 31.-No Japanese
report of the land operations in Korea
has yet been received here, and there
is much speculation as to the size Of
the opposing armies. regarding which
there is no reliable information.
A correspondent at Russian head
quarters in Mukden telegraphs that
about 10000 Japanese have crossed
the river at Chin Changau, and 5000
have advanced north from Chong Ju.
The Chronicles Shanghai cores
pondent asserts that practically the
whole Japanese army in Korea, con
sisting of 100, 900 men. is concentrated
at Pak-Chen and Anju. only small de
tachments being left in southern
Korea to maintain communication.
A st. Petersburg special says that a
Russian division of $4,000 men from
southern Ussuri is advancing in two
columns through Korea. The main
column, coming along the east coast
road. reached Puk Chang, $50 miles
from the Tumen river, and the flank

Miss Weyman caught her breath
with sigh of relief. There was no
disloyalty there, she knew. She re-
fiected with a pang that these two
young people did not know their own
secrets as yet. They might never
know it, He would, in his simple
honor, go calmly through his pro-

sense of honor that kept their loyal

the man in the choir were of exactly
the same age and that the time would
come when she would be no longer
young; that he must sooner or later
see what he had missed to make his
life complete. She loved him, but did

Fountain Backing Brush.

There are some men who need no
inducement but the thought of per
sonal appearance to keep their clothes
brushed and their shoes polished. and
even should they feel that they are
unable to afford to patroniZe a boot
backing establishment every time
their shoes require cleaning. they pre-
sent themselves with a brush and
box Of polish and do the work them
selves. To others this task Is so un-
pleasant that 1t more often goes nm
done. and II they cannot afford to pay
for a shine they must have some very
convenient method of applying the
polish if they are to be induced to
keep their shoes looking decent. 10
II goes that the man who is careful
of his appearance deserves to have
convenient outfit. and the man who is
careless must have one, and between
the two the invention of the brush
shown in the picture should not fare
poorly.
This arrangement is designed TO
serve as a storage reservoir for the
liquid polish now in common use, and
to provide convenient method OF
applying II to the leather. ready for
the polishing brush. 1t will be noticed
that the bristles in the center are
slightly in advance of those forming
the surrounding portion of the dauber
being mounted on a sliding rod, which
extends into the reservoir. In the up
per portion of the latter there is an
adjusting screw, which limits the
movement of the rod even to the
point of preventing it altogether. To
stsrt the flow of the liquid it is only
necessary to turn the screw once or
twice and press the dauber on the
shoe. when the central portion Of the
bristles will elevate the rod and open

Russian Cruiser Blown Up.

Paris. March 31-"It is certain"
says the st. Petersburg correspondent
of the Matin, that the Russian cruiser
Boyarin was blown up by touching a
Russian torpedo. eight days after the
torpedo transport Yenisei was blown
up as the result of striking mine at
Port Arthur.
Even if this news is not confirmed,
the fact that the cruiser has not been
mentioned as partaking in the recent
operations is sufficient evidence.
''It is not known since the death OF
Captain SteDhanoff, commander of the

been placed, and hence it is impos-
sible for Russian ships to approach

none of these reports can be accepted

Il have just returned after 190-

sian or Japanese fleets, though the
watch reported fash signalling at

Il was debarred from running close
to Port Arthur by heavy fog, and

for the Japanese to remain close to
Port Arthur, in view Of the strength Of
the Russians in their torpedo boat de-
