The Easter Blossoms,

Every florist that grows her own
lilies and other plants for the Easter
festival should be giving some active
thought and attention to that phase
of Horticulture now. Easter will be
here almost before we know it, and
no one wants to be without a few
decorative plants for that occasion.
Those who have made practically no
preparation can get a supply of the
quickly maturing bulbs. from the
nearest florist and begin work with
them with the assurance that they
will furnish blossoms in time for the
purposes Intended, says the Woman's
Magazine. It depends much upon the
condition in which the lilies have
been kept as to what treatment
should be given them, but it is prob.
ably none too early to begin forcing
them little and getting them in
good shape and active readiness for
blossoming, at the time blossoms are
wanted. Easter is floral occasion
and there is little excuse for any one
being without flowers when that time
arrives.

Flowers Appropriate to Easter.

Apart from its religious signifi-
canoe. Easter is the spring festival.
and the real flowers of early spring,
the tulip, the daffodil, the wild ar
butus, are its more appropriate floral
symbols. We derive our name for it
from Ostara, the Saxon goddess of
the East and the dawn. In Latin
countries they cling to variants Of the
Aramic "pesach" (passover) as pas
Qua, pasqua. paques. If there is such
flower as "the Resurrection lily" it
must be the small purple lily OF Pal
estine.
AS matter of fact, when the lily
is mentioned in other seasons. we
never think of Easter. Consider the
lilies of the field" Solomon, in all
his glory, was not SO arrayed. Flow
ers gorgeous in color are brought to
mind. To paint them, cries Sails
bury, in sKing john" were waste
full and ridiculous excess The fieur
de lys of France is blue. The tiger
lily, the panther lily. the red lily are
40 common in botany, it, not in Ber-
muda and the Eastern markets, as

Hot Cross Buns.

The day for hot cross buns will soon
be here, and this is how to make
them: Put two and half pounds
of flour into wooden bowl and set it
before the fire to warm; then add
half pound of sifted sugar, some
coriander seed. cinnamon and mace
powdered fine; melt hair pound of
butter in half pint of milk; when it
is as warm as it can bear the finger
mix with it three tablespoonfuls of
very thick yeast and little salt; put
it to the -four, mix it to a paste and
make the buns; put them on a tin.
set before the fire for quarter of an
hour; cover over with flannel, then
brush them with very warm milk;
put cross on the top and bake them
till nice brown in moderate oven.

The Easter Lily.

The big white lily, grown in pro-
fusion in Bermuda and elsewhere to
meet the annual demand for floral
symbols of Easter, is not essentially
an Eastern flower, and its recent as

the Resurrection has no historical
significance. White lilies, to be sure.
figure in some of the early religious
portraiture. The little white lily Of
the woods, flower of early summer.
has long been associated by the poets,
including Shakespeare. Keats and
Tennyson, with modesty and purity.
But the big Bermuda lily is not a
symbol Of modesty and has inspired
no poet.

character. The celebration of the
birth of Christ, occurring about the
darkest period Of winter, bears more
of domestic character and is chiefly
kept and appreciated at the hearth

individual and his faith. Easter Day,
as feast more generally celebrated

Across the east newborn day
Drifts in with golden glow;
The night has cleared the clouds away
And hearts with joy o'erhow.
It is the spring Of souls to-day,
When light and life unite
When every voice is raised in praise,
And every heart is bright.
The belfry bells now sweetly chime
From spires against the sky,
And Easter comes in radiant beams
Most hallowed from on high.
Sweet, pure voices far away
At Heavens high affairs sing:
Rejoice! Rejoicei Our Lord is here!
The everything King!

Pagan in Origin.

Most of the popular observances of
the day which the church partly
adopted by introducing them into it's
Easter services are clearly of pagan
origin. Eastertide, long before Boni-
face brought the Gospel to the Ger
mans, was period OF Joy and jubila-
tion. Spring had arrived. Ostara.
the bright and victorious. divinity, had
conquered. Brighter and warmer
days assured the rejuvenation Of ma
ture. Mans hope and activity re-
vived. Like the Ushas of their Hindu
cousins in far-off Asia, Ostara, the
youthful goddess, danced for joy, a
symbolical belief which the church
adopted in the legend that the lamb
was seen on Eastern Sunday, frisking
in the rays Of the rising sun at dawn.
