Easter Giving.
Easter giving has become to be so
universal a custom that it is quite
naturally assuming a considerable part
of ones time and purse, but in order
That it may not be anything of q
burden, which if so should certainly
not be encouraged, those who make and
send gifts are already busy with plans.
Plants OF ones own raising are
among the most acceptable of Easter
Tememberances, while not few will
send dainty baskets filled with home
made dainties. And again Ethe Easter
thoughts, so artistically penned will
for card gifts, fill the needed want of
many who send inst thought. Then
for those who have not time to fashion
their own gifts, the shops are show
ing no end OF attractive gifts that
are appropriate and dainty. The Gus
tom of Easter giving is kindly one
coming as it does at the season of
springs real awakening when the heart
is especially filled with truest of i'm
pulses, that make the ft-giving at
Easter time 4 real pleasure.
