time enjoyed perpetual copyright in their
works, and this was destroyed by an act
drafted by Dean Swift expressly In their

against perpetual copyright. Half . CEN

His cart contained his family as well as

From the Pail Mall Gazette.

During his first viceroyalty. from 1868 to
1874, Lord Spencer and his wife, who was
then at the zenith of her beauty, were
popular even in quarters where British
officials are not as rule looked upon
with favor. The earl was nicknamed the
Red Cross knight and the lady lieutenant
came to be known as Spencer's Faerie
Queene. Lord Spencer's last public ap-
pearance before leaving Ireland in 1874
was at a school where his wife was dis
tributing prizes. The speaker called upon
to return a vote of thanks to the dis
tinguished guests concluded his remarks
by saying to the lord lieutenant: I'VE all
hope to see you back again-you and the
work Of art that sits by your side" The
remark was meant as q compliment to
Lady Spencer, but might certainly have
been more happily wOrded.

among tho people who preserved them
as amulets during the year.
In Scotland an egg-hunt upon the

The Easter hare is another custom
which we have borrowed from Pagan
times, for the hare WAS associated with
the moon and new life.
in Swabia the children arc sent out
