Easter Superstition

There are many superstitlons IN
connection with Easter, and each
country has a custom of celebrating
it peculiar to itself, but while each
varies. they all unite to observe the
spirit of Springtime. and all Christ
ians rejoice that the Lord of Life
forever won victory over death.
Among the many quaint supersti-
tons is an old AryaD one which typi-
fes the return of the III of Spring
time by a golden egg eggs being
distributed at the early equinox by
priests to strengthen the hopes OF
the people that the bleak. cold days
of Winter migth soon cease and q
brighter time ensue.
With the Jews, says the Apri
Delineator, the egg became a type
Of their rescue from the land of
bondage. and in their Feast of Pass
over, eggs occupied a conspicuou
place in the services. 1t was then
connection with the latter that final
ly caused them to be used by Christ
ians the world over in celebrating
Easter-the egg of resurrection int,
a new life, bringing a message OF
life from death. as it were.

CHAPTER XVII.
One More Step Up the Sierras.

~fS
On to Colfax! Fifty.four miles from
Sacramento; yet miles short of the
mountain fifty that must be finished
and accepted by the government com
m~issSoners before the interest on the
bonds would become payable; finished
before the time limit expired, and with
that, the franchise!
The September sun looked down on
a new hiye. The little terminus in
the gulch had slipped into history In
a night. Stables, shops, stores, sa-
looms, shanfy homes were taken down
in sections and moved on by flatcar or
prairie schooner.
Sally b., who gave Father Times
forelock many wrenches, was already
installed in her rehabilitated hotel at
Colfax when the first excursion train
whistled in, bringing officers and visi-
tors to celebrate this one more step
up the Sierras.
The town, named for the reigning
idol of America, would always be a
junction for the travel of Nevada and
Grass Valley regions, and Sally b.,
taking note OF this, rebuilt her hotel
with a glance toward permanence.
Proudly she led the superintendent
niece, Miss Amabel Hamilton. to the
best room, cloth-lined and gayly pa
pered. Proudly Sally b. set her first
banquet in the enlarged dining room;
and proudly Vic Wah in his new kitch-
en- rose to undreamed-of culinary
masterpieces.
Alfred was attached to Mr.. Crocker's
tleman-in-waiting to Miss Hamilton.
Yet during the hustle of arrival and
adjustment to rooms, he found a quiet
moment with Stella In Sally BIS new
parlor; and the long weeks of separa-
tion were forgotten in the space Of
a clock tick.
There was no time for leisurely re-
views, confession of loneliness and
counter confession-only a brief Sec
ond with dreaded Interruptions i'm
pending.
Alfred drew from his pocket a small
parcel n broke Its fastenings.
"Oh. a golden comb for gold-brown hair.
And milk white pearls for a neck as
fair;
And silver chains. and all for thee;
To-day our ship comes home from seal"
he paraphrased gayly, throwing over
her head a triple strand of Roman
pearls.
"Oh, how delicate and bonny!" Stei-
la cried, slipping them through her
fingers. II never coveted anything in
my life SO much as Juliet's pearls that
/ wore that night-except you," she
added, looking up shyly.
That's because they suit you, and

ible.

What Is a GeySer?

The correcting of manuscripts by
the state examining board at Pierre,
has unearthed some knowledge of
strange and wondrous makeup. The
results of the examinations are the
more strange when it is taken into
consideration that applicants are all
over l8 years of age. while many in
their preliminary statements confess
to have taught some years before
coming to this state.
Of all the people trying for certif-
icates. 800 out of the 1000 are wom-
en-. Fully so per cent of the appli-
cants will fail to gain the required
marks to entitle them to a certif-
cate.
The general grade of intelligence
and the reasons for such wholesale
failure of the applicants may readily
be determined from the answers
gwen to the questions below. These
questions and answers are taken just
as they happen to occur in the nan,

the hill a determined. passionate man,
yet yieMing to her still. But now he
returned a con@neror. She felt it in

He closed4the door behind him; yet
the tyranny-of his presence remained.
Back OF his simple words lay a power
that gripped and held Stella to mac
ton. Not tilDthe girl had twice spoken
did Stella rouse to present duty. Even
then her mind worked automatically,
and she breathed calmly only after
she had seen Gideon ride out OF town
on his branding horse.

COFFEE DRINKING
A Doctor Says it Weakens the Heart.

'In my opinion,' says a we'll known German physician, mo one can truth fully say that coffee agrees with him, as it has long since been proven that caffeine. contained in coffee, is an ln- iurious. poisonous substance which weakens and degenerates the heart muscles.
 For this reason the regular use or coffee, soon or late, causes condition of undernourishment, which leads to various kinds of organic disease.
 "Convinced of this fact, l have oiten sought for some healthful beverage 10 use instead of coffee. At last l found tbe thing desired in Postum. Having had occasion to forbid people using coffee. whose hearts were affected, l have recommended Postum as a bev- arage since it is free from all lnJuri' ms or exciting substances l Kno" this from results in my own famliy' and among patients.
 Hundreds of persons who now use Postum in place of coffee, are greatly benefited thereby" There's Reason.

One to Three at Whist.

The late Senator Hoar was extreme ly fond of whist, which he played with remarkable skill.
 A friend says that the only time he ever knew the usually placid and genial man from Massachusetts to be absolutely impatient was when on one occasion at whist the senator had an unusually stupid partner. Notwith- standing this handicap, the pair were winning right along even against good players.
 In the middle of one game, some one paused behind the senator's chair and asked, Well, senator, how are you getting on?'
 "Very well, indeed" was the reply, "in view of the fact that l have three adversaries. Sunday Magazine.
