Mr.. Edward Bond.
The officiating minister, Mr.. Doan,

lovely roses recalled a sentiment ex-

in pink rosebuds:

On this April day of days,
Become American Beauties of bliss,
And stay in bloom always"

Northern Lights, Red Moon and Roaming
CONSULTATIONS Made Easter Night Bright
One Of the most beautiful displays
of heavenly fireworks ever seen in this
city was viewed with awe and alarm
Sunday night. Everything in the cat
egory, except Haleys comet. seemed
to be having continuous pref lrmance
in the heavens. The curtain rose at
shortly after o'clock. when the moon,
an immense ball OF red fire. much like
harvest moon. began slowly rising.
When its beauty had dissipated into a
bright steel color. il became surround
ed with nimbus-like ring of white
flame that shifted and changed with
great rapidity Along with this short
ly after 8 O'Clock the great star Of
Bethlehem. largest OF consultations
now in the sky. could be seen sailing
malestically over the city. It was
nearly as large as the moon and shed a
lustrous light. II was visible until
sunrise Monday morning when itI
slowly faded.
But most beautiful and alarming I Z
all were the northern lights or Aurora
Boreais. About o'clock they began
playing ribbon-lke across the sky, ris-
ing and falling. their wonderful ten
acles OF light changing from violet and
gold colors 20 deep reds and then mer-
ged softly into faint white light,
gathering power suddenly and whip

Everybody in the city was gazing awe

what all these consultations portended. |
The moon came mp so magnifcently |
red because 0f the density 0f the at |
mosphere, which dilated II and chang

magnetic disturbance which caused the
northern lights. The latter are phe

Generally they are seen only in the far

They were probably rendered so in

BUTStE, THE LAMB,

Dear Little Men and Little Women:
Last summer we were in the country on
large farm. There were ever so many ami
mails, cats by the dozens, lovely collies,
horses, cows, pigs, chickens, pigeons,
geese, turkeys and many more. But the
first thing you would see upon arriving
would be lazy and seemingly very gentle
and affectionate lamb. He would greet
ycu with friendly "baa," and come run
ming toward you to be petted. Well, the
first thing I did was to scratch his head,
thinking that was likely to please him.
but it seemed that IL only served to make
me his enemy, for as soon as ] did 1t he
swung his head violently to one side and
then with all his strength swung it back
again and hit me- I turned and ran for
the house with the lamb in hot pursuit. I
reached the porch in minute, and think
ing myself safe, leaned against the wall
to rest. Soon a great Gathering of hoofs
and several angry "baas'' were heard COM
ing along the walk. It was the lamb. He
stood at the bottom of the steps looking at
me- I Iaugheds and said, Now I am safe
and you can't get me UP herer' But
was mistaken. I had no sooner said that
than the lamb waS UP on the porch, but
fortunately the door was right there, and
/ made a dive for it.

OUR LITTLE CHIPMONk.

Dear Little Men and Little Women; This
last summer we spent on farm in Ne"
Hampshire where there We're good many
chickens. One morning when we were out
visiting them we saw a little chlpmonk
eating some of their corn. SO we left some
food in an old rat trap, and there we founo
him the next morning. We put him on the
porch, where he stayed quite contented,
although we opened the door, until evening"
then he ran away, his cheeks full OF the
food we had given him. The next morning
our little chpnonk was there again, and
he ran away again in the evening He
kept this up for the rest of the summer. L
guess he took the food home to store up
for cold weather. We often think of hin1
now, and wonder what he is doing when
it SHOWS Hoping this will interest you
