Time and Love.

When 1 have seen by Times fell hand de-
faced
The rich proud cost of outworn buried
age:
When some time lofty towers see down
RACED
And brass eternal slave to mortal rage;
When I have seen the hungry ocean gain
Advantage on the kingdom of the shore
And the firm soil win of the watery main.
Increasing store with loss and loss with
store;
When I have seen such interchange of
state
Or state itself COMPOUNDED to decay,
Ruin hath taught me thus to ruminate-
That Time will come and take my Love
away
This thought is as a death which cannot
choose
But weep to have that which it fears to
lose.
William Shakespeare

Wanted-A Brave Man
By FREDERICK B. RENNER

what a little goose the girl is to put a
man in a sheet to guard the PLACED
Well, I'm in for it. 1 must drive the
fellow away or get laughed at in the
morning
Just as he was about to advance up
on Leonard the gate of the vault open
ed, and a figure dashed out and away
with the rapidity of lightning.
The ghost. after stopping to look at
the flying figure, renewed its walk and
its groans.
Il don't propose to come out at the
tail of this business Ernest said.
s.1've agreed to occupy the vault, and

those unearthly groans all night. Eli
Their he or 1 must move on
Leonard suddenly received a blow in
the back which landed him a dozen
feet away on the gravel walk. Before
he could get up he was knocked down
again and again till finally, regaining
his feet, he fed precipitately.
Now 1 think 1 will turn in said
Ernest, and, going to the vault, he en-
tered and, spreading on the floor the
blankets. he had brought with him,
sprawled himself on them and was
soon sound asleep.
Marion arose early and went to the
cemetery Her heart was beating very
fast with expectation, and she was i'm
patient to know whether the splendid
John Knowlton had proved himself a
brave man. AS she approached the
vault and saw no one walking before it
she knew that Leonard at least had not
won. Going nearer, she stopped and
listened. There was the sound of a
| iorioJ fI0S
from the powerful lungs of Knowlton
Then she looked in between the bars,
and there was Ernest stretched out
fast asleep.
The man who had won her had re-
! linquished her before doing so.
Ernest, Ernest! Ernestr' she CALI
ed, raising her voice with each call.
Ernest awoke, yawned and saw the
face peeping through the bars.
What do you mean by waking a fell
/ low at this early hour? Go away
And he turned over for another nap.
! Come. wake up. I want to hear
about-about the others
What others? L saw a ghost walk
ing before this place when 1 came, and
as 1 knew I couldn't sleep for his
groans 1 drove him away. 1 saw no
one else except somebody who opened

Ernest she said after a pause, did
you really mean to give me up last
night?'
Yes. How do know but you would
want me to come out here and sleep
after we We're married? 1 prefer a

Marion determined that she would
marry Ernest Trevor willy nilly, and

HURCHES everywhere are max
ing their annual preparations
for the observance of Easter
Sunday, which this wear falls

Sunday, which this year falls
on April Z. The proper time for the
celebration of this festival of the resur-
rection of Christ was the cause of con-
troversy in the second century between
the eastern and western churches. The
former celebrated Easter on the four
teenth day of the first Jewish month
or moon, regarding it as equivalent to
the passover. The western churches
celebrated it on the Sunday after the
fourteenth day. maintaining that it
commemorated the resurrection of
Jesus The council of Nicaea in 80
favored the western usage. Its deci-
sion, however, settled only the question
that Easter was to be held not on q
certain day of the month or moon, but
upon a Sunday.
When the Gregorian calendar was in
trOduced in 1882 it was debated wheth-
er Easter should be movable or the
date of its celebration fixed for a given
Sunday after March 81. Ancient Gus
tom induced the ecclesiastical authori-
ties to adhere to the method of deter
mination by the moon. This moon was
an imaginary orb, with periods so con-
tr1ved that the new or calendar moon
always follows the real new moon.
sometimes by two or even three days
One purpose in arranging the calen-
dar moon was that Easter might never
occur on the same day as the passover.
Nevertheless it so happened in 1905.
