Dreamer, be gay,

And sorrow send Annoying;
Is spring not here.
With blossoms dear,
In hollow hooks essaying?
Dreamer, be gay,
Tho gold or gray
The skies of grave portending:
Time with his scytbe
Hurryeth by.
The darkest hour hath ending.
Dreamer, be gay
There's always May
For some heart grieveth with waiting:
If yesterday
Hope went astray,
Tomorrow twill be mating
With some new theme
Or old-time dream:
And, oh, the world is bringing
Its joys to you
Across the blue
OF earth and heaven singing.

A SNOW WHITE RABBIT LEApED FROM THE NEST

Scriptural account of the resurrection,
ami preliminary TO this was given a
sort of object lesson III the meaning of
the mysterious process. In the course
OF this latter feature huge nest of
beautifully colored eggs-whch are
symbolic OF the resurrection-was the
deus ey machina
On the afternoon OF Holy Saturday
Father Boniface, tile young monk who
had charge of this important duty,
craved an audience with the abbot of
Tie foundations.
Alas, my lord,' said the young
monk dejectedly. The foxes have eaten
every chicken belonging to the abbey
They have, in fact, eaten every chicken
in the country, and there isn't all egg
&c be had for love or money"
Then why haven't you seen to ii
that we We're rid of The pesrsi" the
abbot asked severely.
Because your lordship has ordained
that no living thing which is mention

lures shall be hurt, and the fox is men

Linn
The Benedictine smiled family. "Tha
fox Is a sly sinner, put he should not
be permitted 70 outWit q community
living under the rule of the blessed
Benedict" he said dryly. IN the good
old days, my brother. you would have
gone directly to heaven with your
plant and not to your abbot"
The young monk betook himself
to the chapel and passed the night
In vigil. AT early dawn he arose from
his aching knees aud sought the nest
which lie had left empty. AS he ap,
preached snow white rabbit leaped
from the nest, and the delighted monk
saw that once again in the history of
holy things the sly old fox had been
unmatched, for the nest was filed
with eggs more splendid in their hues
than his feeble art had ever been able
to provide. g..
