EASTER IN GERMANY
By JULIA 8. TUTWILER.

It has often pained me to see how little there Is in the Easter decorations in har- mony with the meaning of Easter. It is beautiful to present gifts to the chil- dren and other friends and to put on fresh and beautiful garments just as Mother Earth is putting on her new robes of verdure. but still it is more beautiful when all this generosity and beauty has its higher meaning.
 Rabbits and banners are not peculiar ly appropriate to the season. I was pleased in Germany to see how much beautiful instruction was combined with the pleasure given to the children. There was an orphanage close by under the care of the Protestant Sisters, who con- ducted normal school in which I stud- fed For several weeks before the great day the children were carefully instructed in all the events connected with the death and resurrection of Christ and learned the words and music of some of the beau tiful Easter hymns in which the German language is so rich. On each of the Easter eggs prepared for them was a text re- ferring to the event, so numbered that the stories which each recalled would to- gether give the whole Easter history. For example, Hail, RabboniY' "Go Tell His Disciples and Peter" Behold, He Goeth Before You Into Galilee," He Is Risen. as He said." "All Hail." Fear Not Ye," 'sYe Seek Jesus" "So Am With You Always" Peace Be Unto You" Why Are Ye Troubled7' Tt Is l." Blessed Are They Who Have Not Seen and Yet Have Believed"
 All the eggs were hidden in the grounds and the children had the unusual joyous time in finding them. As they were found
The Birmingham age-herald., 1909-04-11

they were brought to the arbor, where the sister in charge of the festival sat, and deposited them into a basket When all had been found the children gathered around the basket and eggs were dis tributed to them, and they sang together an Easter hymn. Then each child in turn, according to the numbers on the eggs, said or recited the text on the egg and told the story connected with it. Thus the whole wonderful story was related in simple, natural language in the open air, surrounded by fresh spring verdure. 1t seemed to me the most beautiful and appropriate Easter celebration had ever seen, for inspiring, so simple and yet in- teresting and instructive.
 At the beginning the significance of the egg as an emblem for Easter was beau tifully explained:
 Children, see here, I have birds egg in one hand and in the other a piece of chalk in the same shape If you had never seen birds and their eggs you could not believe that while one of these is a thing without life, dead thing, the other contains a hidden life, which If placed under right surroundings will in a short time be filling the woods with beautiful music and joyous mothers. Yet this is here. Now, in that eastern country where our dear Savior lived they do not place the dead in a coffin They wind the body round and round with hundreds of yards of bandage until 1t looks like the cocoon which encloses the butterfly and like long white eggs. When our Savior's body was thus wrapped and laid in the tomb 1t looked as though the Hope of the World was dead. Yet the Life of the World was hidden in that still form just as a hidden life lives in the egg, and that life was to burst forth and 1ll the whole world with joy"
 This is very brief outline, but hope 1t may help some mother or teacher to turn the thoughts of tho child to the beautiful signincance of the Easter egg.

A QUESTION OG
 POLITICAL RANK
From the National Magazine.

From the National Magazine.
 Occasionally in Washington the uues- lions Of rank and precedence come up, as matters of importance, at least for the moment. There Is no legislation or ruling on the subject, but there Is, in most in- stances, an understanding, a sort of un- written code.
 Many people will be surprised to learn that governor outranks a senator. ao cording to the law of precedence in voc1,. in other countries.
 A few years ago the new senator from Vermont, Carroll S. Page was crossing the Atlantic with the late Senator Red held Proctor in the Cunard steamship Campania. They were, of course given seats at the captains table. Senator (then governor Page was surprised to find .im- self occupying the post of honor, with Sem ator Proctor seated farther down the table.
 This the modest governor of the Green Mountain State thought was net cutie c,r- rect, and he remonstrated. explaining that there must be some error. as his friend was a United States senator and his su- perior in rank. He was told that a goy- ernor outranks senator.
 Little did Governor Page then think that he would be successful candidate for the senatorial toga, but 1t Is probable that he is reconciled to his reduction in rank when he travels abroad CT in Canada,

Van Norden in the World Mirror.
 One-third of the steel which the world uses each year is made in the United States because we have over 46o steel works which turn out about 100000 tons each year. The iron ore deposits and the limestone deposits are 90 exten- sive and located so near each other in many places that the smelters are turning out the metal within sight of the mines and quarries. Consequently the steel can be manufactured at very low cost for the reason that the raw material is so near the seat of the industry itself. Southern Gary is situated in what is called the Birmingham district, which for the last 20 years has been fam ,ous for its deposits of iron ore. as well as limestone and coal, in close associa- tion with each other. This fact has tempted ironmakers to locate in the Birmingham district in such numbers that from this section of the country comes the very large proportion of the American tonnage of basic iron.
 The basic pig iron which comes from the Alabama furnaces soon became Hnown to the ironworkers of the coun- fry. Shrewd Andrew Carnegie heard of it in Pittsburg and sent foy some sams pies. The result of lt was an order from

When Women Wore Masks.

From the New York Press,
 In the seventeenth century women wore masks in public. Women who had "coralin" lips preferred short masks. For others who wished to cover the lower part of the fact the mask was made complete, with a chin piece of linen. In 1882 new mask called the mimi, from the Italian mim- ics, became the rage among the pro gressive court beauties. It was the cause of many violent quarrels be- tween the danes who contended for the old masks and those who were for novelty. A few years later it be- came a fashion to trim the upper part of the mask with a ruche of lace, to lengthen it with beard of the same material. with lace to the borders of the eyeholes. Young ladies of that period. however. contented themselves with covering their faces simply with piece of black crape. to be coquet. tish rather than masked.

WANT TARIFF REVISION.
Maine Wooden Manufacturers WI
Meet at Augusta House This Morning.

A,meeting of the WOODEN manufac-
turers of the State of Maine will DE
held at the Augusta House at 10 o'clock
this forenoon at which it is expected
that the majority of the manufacturers
will be, present. The meeting is held
in connection with an earnest cam
paign which the manufacturers are
conducting with a view of bringing
about a revision of Schedule K by Com
gress.
They assert that Schedule X of the
present tariff law is not only very I'M
fair to the carded wooden interests but
that it works very much to the adj
vantage of the combing or worsted in
terests. They maintain that specific
duty on wool lin the grease" is unfair
as it imposes much greater tax on
heavy shrinkage woods than it does on
| light shrinking woods. For example
the specific tax now is IL cents per
pound on all woods of class 1; the real
tax on a wool as it is used, thas is
secured and shrinks 40 per cent. is
1913 cents; on a wool that snrinks
70 per cent, So 2-3 cents The manu-
facturers say that inequality is appar-
ent and the discrimination in favor OF
the worsted interests is evident as II
is the light shrinkage or 40 per cent.
woods that the latter use and the ~
per cent or heavier shrinkage WOODS
that the carded wooden men use.
At a meeting of the manufacturers
meeting held at Waterville in January
committee consisting of Hon. w. t.
Haines of Waterville. Ellis Jones OF
nnhcnr, nj Pitts
field. was chosen to confer with the
manufacturers of other states, WIN
the view of attempting to secure an
equalization of the duties on wool so
that the wooden interests might be able
to do business on an equal footlnS
with the worsted interests. This con-
ference occurred at a meeting held at
the Parker House in Boston a few days
later when the movement was .lnaugut
rated. ~.
At this meeting a committee was ap-
pointed to confer with the tariff COM
mittee of the National Association OF
Wooden Manufacturers, and to appear
Before the ways and means commit
tee at Washington. The meeting with
the tariff committee of the National
Association was an attempt to DflhS
about an adjustment of differences and
to effect an agreement between the
two interests but was OF no aVall.
The meeting which has been called
by the Maine committee TODAY IS held
in order that they may make known
to the manufacturers that they repre-
sent just what has been done at the
different meetings held and before the
WAYS and means committee and IN
order that they may acquant these
manufacturers with just the condition
of things that exist and the prospects
for a betterment of these conditions.
There is also a very general move
ment on foot to organize Il strlctl!
