EASTER.

Another Easter day, with all it's hal
lowed associations, sacred memories
and divine teachings, has come and
gone. Over all c~hristendom and among
all it's peoples was celebrated this me-
mortal of the resurrection of Christ,
the Saviour of the world. Again the
lessons of the day have been brought
to mind and its teachings expounded.
Just what those teachings are need not
be enlarged upon; they are known to
even the smallest children. That Jesus,
the Redeemer of mankind, who was
sacrificed for the sin of the world, on
this day arose from the grave. is a fact
known almost universally. And that
this resurrection revealed the suprem-
acy of Jesus over death and sin and
typifed both a renewal of spiritual life
here and the last and great resurrec-
ton unto eternal life, we know to be
the significance Of the occasion.
Easter day is the celebration of a
fact in sacred history upon which rests
the whole plan of the worlds redemp-
ton. The world, by sin, was lost and
beyond the pale of Gods salvation;
Jesus by His death and resurrection
paid the penalty of worlds sin and es-
tablished the way of mans redemption.
His resurrection typifes mans rising
from sin and death unto a life for God
and in His service-a life here on earth
as well as the other and eternal life.
1t means a new life.
At this season, when all about us is
natures resurrection; when the earth,
escaped from the death clutches of win
ter bursts forth into new and beautiful
life; when the blood Of all life begins
to move again and even bounds upward
in it's work of revivification, it is indeed
BETTING that we commemorate this
resurrection Of spiritual life. And it
need not be merely a celebration; it
holds practical good in it's teachings,
which applied will add new vigor and
force to the spiritual activities of all
who conscientiously observe the day.
The good of Easter day is too great
and holy to be lost or even lessened;
may the common sense of a sane people
keep it from degenerating into a day
for modistes and milliners.

The special term of court to try those
two negro boys in Lexington last week
was, in our opinion, utterly useless and
extravagant. The lynching scare seems
to be all rot. While the crime for
which they were tried was a most bru-
tai murder, and we heartily approve the
verdict and sentence, the haste seems
unwarrantable, in both the trial and
the day of execution. But then there
was no Learned counsel" there to Sc
cure a postponement. We merely wish
to point out the inconsistency of the
thing; chiefly because they are negroes
and without money they are disposed of
summarily.

Lard1ess Cookery.

has, from time immemorial, held sway
in the Kitchen. but it has one fatal OBJ
jection-it is indigestible. Nine-tenths
of the Indigestion with which the Amer
lean nation is afflicted is due to the use
of pork and its by-product--lard.
Recognizing this, The N. K. Fair
bank Company, Chicago, have placed on
the market a vegetable oil cooking fat,
Cottolene, which can be used in every
way that lard or butter can, and which
makes delicious, digestible and nourish-
ing food. 1t is recommended by physi-
clans, even to invalids, and it is cheaper
than lard, one-third less being required

Profanity.

A repulsive feature of contemporary
life is our reckless profanity. The vice
is not confined to the tough" element,
but is INDUCED in by respectable peo-
pie. The name of God is outraged by
oaths and imprecations quite as mat
ter of course and withoutthe excuse of
anger or excitement. The sacred name
of Jesus Christ is a byword which are
not according to the second Command
ment. Profanity is a sin, and profanity
is ungentlemanly. One can understand
why boys, who imagine that it is man.
~. indulge in il. One can understand
how man, under the influence of deep
feeling, might now and then find ordi-
nary language inadequate to the stu
alton, though this rather palliates than
excuses. But that a man in the regu-
lar intercourse OF life should season
discourse with oaths and curses is a
strange and founl thing. The growth of
Holy Name societies throughout the
country is an encouraging sign It is a
matter which ought to appeal to every
sincerely Catholic man, this crusade
against blasphemy.
Thou shalt not take the name Of the
Lord thy God in vain. for the Lord will
