Our minds are used to making def
mite pictures, and so as we recall
each holiday Of the year, we clothe
it in its own material dress The
Fourth Of July we drape in flags and
fireworks; Christmas we enwreathe
in holly and mistletOe; Valentines
Day we deck with hearts ard darts;
and Easter we embOwer in flowers
Nature herself is responsible for our
picture Of Easter. for at the approach
Of this season, the bare fields ard
naked trees exert themselves to send
forth some glow of welcome. The
landscape is changed Instead Of
deathlike inactivity, there is the stir
Of life and aspiration. Man himself
feels a fresh impulse, and as his sym
pathies broaden out to embrace the
world, he takes new notice Of tie
plants and blossoms whose awaken
ing beauty is transforming the city
park or wOOdsy glen
When one comes to observe the
flowers, he learns their names. If Le
have a tendency to inquire the why's
and wherefOTes, he soon realizes that
Easter itself has had a great influence
in the naming Of plants. The ResuT-
rection, Of which Easter is the CON-
memOratiOn, is the foundation Of
Christianity, and before this new re-
ligiOn swept over Europe, the plants
were often named for pagan deities
We have to-day a Renaissance Of
this in Venus's Fly Trap and Jupiter's
Beard
As soon as Christianity converted a
nation, it abolished all pagan names
and substituted in their place the IT,
ties connected with the new faith.
As men and cities had to be rechris-
tened, so had the plant world also.
The Savior Himself had few plants
named for Him, probably from a fee
ing Of reverence. We have, however,
Christ's Thorn, which is supposed 10

flower that reaches US to-day with

after saints Today we retain on,y

Andrews Cross, Saint JOseph's Lily,
and Veronica AS we have. swerved

LYMAN COUNTY EXTENSION.

The Chicago. Milwaukee & st. Paul
Railway has decided upon an extern
sion Of its line from Chamberlain
west through Lyman County, opening
up a region Of cheap lands, rich in
agricultural resources, and in which
there is already much decided land,
also & large acreage that may be had
under the homestead law. Lyman
County is in the southern part OF
South Dakota, adjoining the Rosebud
Indian Reservation on the north.
The soil Of Lyman County is one OF
the richest in the state It has pro-
duced corn Of an excellent quality,
having taken first prize at the Mitch
ell Corn Palace during several OF the
past exhibits. 1t is well adapted to
the growth Of wheat, oats, barley,
speltz, and other small grains. Land
is selling now at the rate Of from IS
to &12 an acre, and as soon as the
railway extension is made II is safe
to say that such lands viii increase in
value from 100 to 200 per cent
All that Lyman County has lacked
heretofore has been ability to get
products across the Missouri river TO
markets. The extension OF the Chi
cagO. Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway
viii solve that problem and viii make
It one Of the richest sections in the
West.

low was used for scOurges, and ever
since it has bowed its branches in

posed to be the tree upon which Ju-
das hanged himself. It is not to be

originally called Judas ear The &C.
dar. the pine, and the box are al
connected with the crucihxion. Differ
ent authorities vary in just what
woods did form the cross. Bede says
the cypress, the cedar, the pine and
the box: but Saint ChrysOstOm quotes
from Isaiah 1x:13: The glory OF
Lebanon CEDAR shall come unto
thee, the fir tree, the pine tree, and
the box, together to beautify ms
sanctuary The church fathers con-
sidered four woods necessary to the
cross to symbolic the four quarters
Of the globe over which its influence
would spread. One tradition says that
the cross was made of apple wood
the inference being obvious.
An old English legend carries the
cross back to the days Of our first
parents. Adam sent Abel to an angel
to petition him to show them the path
back to Eden. The angel gave Abel
three seeds. saying that from their
trunks would spring the path to Para
disc. The seeds were planted, and
one Tree, at least, a magnificent &C.
dar, was fiOurishing at the time Solo
mon erected his temple. This glOri-
Gus king had the tree cut down TO
furnish a ridge pole, but after it waz
brought in, it was found to be too
short. Then it was cast aside and lay
waste by the pool of Bethesda until
!. was taken to form the cross.
The old legends may seem to las

yet they indicate a step in our own
civilization They represent the tine
