ror Theodostus stands prominent for these
deeds of mercy. 1t is recorded that he sent
letters of pardon to many cities Of the en-
pfre, ordering the release of prisoners ana
granted life to those who had been con-
demned to death. All for the purpose OF
the better sanctifyfng the days preceding
Easter time. Another emperor of Rome
made this custom O law, and al later date
similar laws were in force In the ancient
Kingdom OF France.
But while all making and legal acts
of every kind were forbidden. one exception
was made by Emperor Justinian. who in
serted this paragraph into the Roman code
1T shall nevertheless be permitted to give
slaves their liberty, in such manner that
the legal acts necessary for the emancipa-
ton shall not be counted as contravening
the present enactment"
The church also ordered Christian mas
ters to give their slaves total freedom from
labor during the last two weeks OF Lent
Many interesting and very impressive Gus
toms have grown up in various parts of the
world around the Lenten season of the re-
ligious year. There was very pretty Gus
tom formerly prevalent in England and Ire
land or making visit to the mother of the
family upon the mid-Sunday of Lent. 1t
was called "Mothering Sunday" and on
that day married sons and daughters paid
this yearly visit, always carrying some gift
to their mother. There was general fes-
tivity at home, ''furmenty'' being quaffed-a
drink made OF grains of wheat boiled in
sweet milk. sugared and spiced In canny
Scotland the favorite dish for Mothering
Sunday was earrings or pancakes made
from stepped peas, fried in butter and sea-
soned with pepper and salt From these
the day was sometimes called Caring
Sunday" The Sundays of Lent are thus
enumerated in an old couplet:
It'd Mid and Misera,
CARING, palm and pssse-egg day.
The gift usually brought to the mother
was sweet cake called a ''simnel cake
and Herrick wrote the following lines about
It:
I'll TO thee q smnel bring.
Gainst thou a-motheriDg;
So that when she blesses thee
Half that blessing thou'lt give me.
These sfmnel cakes are made from raised
dough of fine flour and water. colored
deep yellow with saffron, filled with raisins.
currants and candied lemon peel They are
boiled and then baked a warm brown.
In all times 1t has been the custom to
make Easter morn marked contrast to
the Lenten season, and especially to Holy
week.
