Easter Facts.

The observance of Easter was not instituted until some 3i0 years after the death of Christ The nane was taken from the ancient Anglo saxon goddess of spring. Ostern. or Eastre. whose festival WAS celebrated about the time of the Christian Easter No celebration was arranged hy the Jew ish Christians at all but on the Huh day of the month, immediately follow ing the sernal equinox. which was the day on which the old Jewish feast or the Passover was celebrated. the Jew ish Christians celebrated the death or Christ. to them the paschal lamb. Christ having died. according to their chronology on the date or the cele- bration of the Jewish Passover. The celebration of the Jewish Christians was therefore for the death and not the resurrection of Christ. The gen tile Christians however. were not bound by aHy of the Jewish traditions. Sunday being the Lords day to them. they therefore celebrated the resur- rectfon of Christ on the Sunday follow ing the 14th day of the moon of March. the day on which Christ died. The Jewish Christians thus celebrated the i4th day of the month irrespective of the hay of the week. and the gentle Christians celebrated sunday, ire speetlve ef the dty of the month If this confusion had not been resolved by the proper ecciesiasticai autheri- ties we might have been celebrating the day al the present time according to our individual religious prediIee- tions
 The carly church was torn with bit ter dissensiens regarding this conflict of custom as To the celebration of Easter Various attempts were made to fix stable day which would be ob- served by the church IS whole. but they all failed Finally at the council of Nice. A. n 33a. the question was settled once for all and the date now observed throughout the Christian world was established. Easter day was then fixed as the first Sunday aft CT that full moon which happens on or next after March q If the full moon happens on a Sunday the follow ing Sunday is Easter
 In France the year began with Easter sunday until the year f364, the date of Shakespeare's birth. when Charles K fixed Jan. l as the first day of the year.

Monsieur Comtois etait malade depuis TN an ct
son etat de sante allait %toujours de NAL en- pis. Deux
on trois medecins l'avaient traite sans amener de
soulagement a toutes ses dou1eurs qui devenaient
de plus en- plus atroces. II ~soufrait de mauvaises
digestions ct du veritable martyre qui sen suit.
Tout celia, il va sans dire, etait prejudiciable aux
travaux ordinaires de sa vie. II en- etait rendu a
ne plus etre capable de TRAVELLER ct il ne pouvalt
demeurer dams cette condition, puisque les tralte-
ments DIES medecins consultes deja ne lui faisaient
pas de bien. II voulut chercher ailleurs les moyens
d'enrayer lie NAL.
II d@cida d aller consu1ter les M@decins de la Com
recut, il les NIT fdelement en- %pratique, il prit les
Pilules Moro Requirement ct ne retarda pas a cons
tater que son etat s. ameliorait.
Monsieur Comtois est maintenant fer de sa que
rison, il a repris achievement ct avec joie son ira
vail ct IL veut que tous ses amis sachent de lu1 ce
quill doit aux Pilules Moro ct aux conseils des
Medecins de la Compagnie Medicale Moro. Aussi,
a-t-il dome, avec autant de plaisir que de recon-
Nuisance, Iattestation suivante de sa complete
guerison.
Voici &c qu'i il nous dit
