Easter Sunday

Easter commentaries the resur
rection Of Christ.
Many Of the popular observance
connected with Easter are clearly oI
Pagan origin. The Goddess Ostara
Or Eastre seems to have been the per
sonificalion Of the morning or east
and also OF the opening Of the year OF
spring. The Anglo Saxon year mann
Of April was Eastermonth. and ii Is
still known in Germany by this name.
The month In ancient times always
signifies a festival of Joy.
The church ~endeavored TO give a
Christian significance to such rites
Of the celebration as could not be
voted out and the conversion was par.
ticularly easy. Joy at the rising of
the natural Sun of Righteousness-at
the resurrection Of Christ from the
rave.
The most characteristic Easter rite
and the most widely used is that of
Easter eggs. They are painted and
In some parts Of Moorland,
dyed and distributed among friends
This originated from the custom
Scotland, to go out before breakfast
on Easter Sunday and hunt for the
eggs Of wild fowls, IL being considered
great luck If they were found.
There can be but little doubt that
the use of EGGS al this season was
originally symbolical of the revivifi.
cation OF nature In the ~springing forth
of life in spring. The practice is not
confined TO Christians, but the Jews
use eggs in the feast of the Passover.
From the Christian point If view
the Feast Of Eggs Is considered as
emblematic of the resurrection-of a
future life.
Easter is really the festival of the
resurrection Of Jesus Christ. In the
ancient church the celebration of East
er lasted eight days. but the period
has been gradually cut. II Is il fav-
orite time for administering baptism.
The proper time for celebrating
Faster has occasioned no little con
troversy. but II was finally settled
in l5s2. when the Gregorian calendar
was introduced and The rule for oh
,aining the exact date on which the
day shall fall. Is that Easter shall fall
on the first Sunday after the first
full moon after the 21st of March,
tthe beginning of the ecclesiastical
year. II the fun moon falls on a
Sunday. Easter Is the first Sunday
after.
One object in arranging the cele-
bration Of Easter was TO prevent IL
falling on the same day as the Jewish
OF The Passover. but occasional
they came together, and 1903 was

IF I SHOULD DIE TONIGHT,

Selected.
If 4 should die tonight,
My friends would look upon my quiet
face
Before they laid it in its resting place,
And deem that death had left 1t almost
fair,
And, laying snow-white flowers against
my hair,
Would smooth it down with fearful
tenderness,
And fold my hands with lingering
caress,
Poor hands, 20 empty and SO cold to-
night!
If should die tonight,
My friends wonId call to mind, With
loving thought,
Some kindly deed tho icy hand had
wrought;
Some gentle word the frozen lips had
said;
Errands on which the willing feet had
sped;
The memory OF my selfshress and
pride,
My hasty words would all be put aside,
Aud 90 I should be mournad and loved
tonight.
If should die tonight,
Even hearts estranged would turn once
more to men,
Recalling other days remorsefully,
The eyes that chill me with averted
glance
Would look upon me as of yore, per-
chance,
nd soften in the old familiar way,
For who could war with dumb, uncon-
sclous clay?
So might rest, forgotten OF all, to-
night.
Oh, friends, pray tonight,
Keep not your kisses for my dead, cold
brow.
The way is lonely, let me feel them
Think gently Of me, am travel-worn,
My faltering feet are pierced with
many thorn.
Forgive. oh, hearts estra,g forgive,

When dreamless rest Is mine / shall
not need

GROWING GINSENG IN T HIS
STATE.
A Crop Worth $24o,ooo an Acre
Says Senator Tome.

Morning Post
A new industry in this State was un-
earthed yesterday by Senator Toms OF
Henderson when he had passed a bill
to protect o crop which he declared
would yield $24O,OOO an acre to the
growers. This plant which appeared
to'possess such fabulous value Is GIN
seng, an herb grown only In Manchu-
ria, China and certain mountaln sect
ions of America. There il no demand
for ginseng saye in China, and the en-
tire product is shipped there, where it
is esteemed as an invaluable medicine
"The general opinion OF American
doctors is that the plant is OF little val
ue, but the Chinese doctors regard it
as everything, said Senator Toms. 81
am attempting its culture on my place
in Henderson county, and have halt
an acre in ginseng, the plants now be-
ing four years old. Ginseng IS planted
in beds about so feet long and feet
wide. The plants are in rows a foot
apart and the plants are 3 inches dis
tant The beds are made of the richest
woods mould and are artificially shad-
ed. Two years are required for the
seed to germinate and seven years for
the crop to mature. Ginseng has a
beautiful green top, red berries, and
the roots are yellow like carrots. The
roots are used. They are dug up and
dried and sold to parties in New York
and Baltimore and from there export
ed to China, the sole market for the
plant. It is estimated that there are
less than 25 acres of ginseng in the
United States and probably lees than
two acres In North Carolina.
"My bill seeks to protect and foster
this industry in our State. 1t provides
for placing a wire fence six feet high
around the beds and any person steal
ing gensing from these enclosures shall
be guilty of felony. This la~ will
apply to the whole State"
