your work more easily and

The secret of the unequaled
success of Hoods Sarsapa-

gives strength and tone to

4 CHEAP PARCELS POST ON
RURAL DELIVERY ROUTES.

Tho principal objection that has
been made TO cheap parcels post
I'm this country that Il would favor
the department stores In large cities
at she expense OF the country mer-
chnnts-DOES NOT APPLY TO

GELS POST BILL NOW BEFORE
CONGRESS-.
That objection may not be sound,
but Il need not be discussed I'm con-
nectlon with the present measure,
know as the Burnham bill (S. Il.
I5t22).
The pending bill provides for the
establishment OF a special parcels
post system on Iural delivery routes
but only for packages originating on
the route wherein the delivery Is
made or In the postofiice FROM
WHICH THE CARRIER SETS OUT.
The charges provided are cents
for the first pound and cents for
each additional pound or fraction
thereof. up 10 eleven pounds; for
two ounces or less. l cont: over two
ounces and an 10 four ounces, 2
cent; over four ounces and up 10
eight ounces. cents; over eight
ounces and up 20 twelve oInces, 4

one pound. 3 cents.

iginating az any other pOstotilce
than the distributing point for the
rural route on which the person ad-
dressed resides must pay the regu-
'ar rate OF parcel postage, which Is
one cent per ounce.
And at the regular rate the limit
OF weight Is fClr pounds. on which
the cost OF carriage would he Ga
cents, while under the terms of the
Burnham bill parcel weighing
eleven pounds WOULD BE CAR
RlED OVER A RURAL DELIVERY
FOR rs CENTS.
Under the existing law carriers
are not allowed TO transport or de-
liver anything but mail matter. al
though the law Is said 90 be fire.
quently violated In this particular.
And the high merchandise rate OF
IA cent an ounce, with the limit OF
weight four pounds, makes the rur-
al delivery little used by merchants
or their customers In local trade.
Undoubtedly the excessively high
postal rates on merchandise were
Imposed aud have been maintained
chiefly THROUH THE POWERFUL
INFLUENCE OF THE EXPRESS
COMPANIES al Washington, as
such rates enable them successfully
90 compete with the postal service
hut as the express companies are

In Scotland aud the north Of ENGLAND
generally it Is still customary to boil eggs

observed in Italy. Spain and in Provence.
In Vienna. instead \pf the colored egg,
which is merely toy for children. the
Easter egg Is composed Of silver. mother.
of-pearl or other expensive material and
filled with .guineas or trinkets.
The egg was undoubtedly regarded as a
symbol by the old mysttcs-sometimes of
our mundane system ARID sometimes OF
the earth only. In the firpt case the yoll<
was supposed to represent our world, the
white its circumambient Ornament or at
mosphere. and the she'll the solid "crys-
talline sphere In which the stars were
set. In the Mosaic narrative Of creation
the spirit Of God isl represented as

latent life. (

records 1t would appear that the rules Of
the game varied in different churches,
but in the main the pastime consisted OF
tossing the eggs from hand to hand. back
and forth. and crosswise In bewildering
and complex figure. As missed egg
meant a smashed egg, this game proved
detrimental to church Furnishings. and In
time the eggs were replaced by egg
shaped balls. the prizes for skillful play

Another pastime which still survives
was to roll eggs down hill. the one
which reached the bottom intact winning
the rest. A survival Of this custom is
found In Washington. where the children
gather in the White House grounds
Easter Monday and roll eggs down the
grassy slope In the rear OF the building.
The customs In various countries con-
nected with Easter eggs have varied but
little during . long lapse of years. In
Hakluyt's voyages Q5so) he speaks Of the
common people in Russia carrying eggs
colored red on that day. and gentlemen
and gentlewomen having theirs gilded.
when two friends meet during the Eas-
ter holidays they take one another by the
hand: one Of them saith. The Lord is
risen: the other answereth, 1t Is SO Of a
truth and then they kiss and exchange
their eggs" The red-colored one IL In

The Hawaiians believe that the Island
of Hawaii was produced by the bursting

water by a bird Of great size. and beyond
which there was no other land.
Old Egg Myths.
Chinese writer's tell us that In the be-

fusion, there came from a vast mundane
egg. which divided itself into two parts.

been known in China as Poem Koo- Wang

1t was a belief in Japan that the world
was produced from a cocks egg. From
this world a giant. who had conquered
