Fashions In Diseases,

There are curious fashions in dis
eases. How doctor would stare at a
patient who complained of the eight
zenith century megrims. And from
Dorothy Osborne's letters it is evident
that the spleen was the favorite seat
of malady then. If you didn't feel
well it was the fault of your spleen.
Today, l suppose, there are few men
or women who could point to the spot
of their spleen or tell what it does or
doesn't do. There was a tremendous
run on appendicitis some years ago,
but the most famous operator for that
malady - after he had retired from
practice-announced that the operation
is usually uperhuous.-London Chron-
icle.

child found an egg he rushed with it, breathless and hoping it would bear the magic number, to Mrs. Meredith, who promptly entered the number op- posite the child's name.
 T was so excited at first, that must have run round like a chicken with it's head off, as they say. But it seemed that everywhere I went to search someone was always ahead of me. And presently I found myself standing in the middle of the floor not knowing which way to turn. Every second, 1t seemed to me, some little boy or girl would rush up to Mrs. Meredith holding aloft an egg and shrieking with glee. And r. why, I just couldn't seem to find one, though I knew, of course, there was one for me hidden some place.
 'I felt just dreadfully about 1t, Dor othy, as you can we'll imagine, and if the truth be told must confess I was on the verge of tears. Indeed a lump kept rising in my throat that I had difficulty in keeping down. Per haps that was why, suddenly and without being aware of it, I chanced to glance upward. Instantly I knew I had found an egg!
 Would you believe it. there in plain sight-just as plain as the nose on your face-was an egg tied with a string and hanging right down beside the chandelier very close to the place where the chandelier joined the cell ing!
 T see 1t! I see it!' I cried. That's my egg That's my egg' And as I pointed to 1t with outstretched arm. everyone looked up and joined in my excited cries. Mrs. Meredith had a servant bring in a step-ladder and unite the egg from the string sup porting it.
 When 1t was placed in my hands I saw it bore the number thirteen. Goodness how disappointed I was, How awfully unfortunate! No one could possibly win anything with that hoodoo numberi I could have wept right then and there!
 After while the last egg had been found and. in a silence so tense that you could have heard a pin drop. Mrs. Meredith reached up and opened the little trap-door in the side of the big Golden Easter Egg. She extract ed the tiny piece of paper and looked at it a moment in silence.
 My heart was right up in my mouth and-and I was certain I would never be able to swallow it again. But at that, I was not one whit more excited than the other chill dren in the room. And, goodness me, how slow Mrs. Meredith was about reading out the number written on the paper!
 "But presently she raised her eyes, smiled and asked: Who has number thirteen? That is the number old Bunny Rabbit wrote on the paper and it wins the Golden Easter Egg!'
 For a moment or two I could scarcely believe I had heard aright. Thirteen? Why that was my num- Der! Yes-yes-'Please. Mrs. Mere dith,' I said in voice that was all choked up, have thirteenl'

die never had wife in his life-and I'll bet he's been over that trail a dozen times in the past two months. This little story is an old favorite of his-as, indeed. it is of every guide ever met.
 All guides, everywhere. know it, and they like nothing better than to get hold of a tenderfoot, tell 1t to him, with tears in their eyes, and then watch his surprise when they sprang the joke on him at the last moment.
 You see, whenever a horse breaks his leg, there's nothing to do but shoot him. And-when, in the story, both horse and wife went over the cliff together why, of course-ah, you see it now? It isn't so very funny, after all, maybe; but you and Jack certainly were-why I can see your scared little horror-stricken faces right now and"

The Golden Easter Egg

TSHALL tell you an Easter story
 E tonight, Dorothy said Mamma
 U as she seated herself beside her
 U little daughters bed for the Sle<py-time Tale. "A story of an Easter party l attended a long, long time ago-in fact, when I was not much older than you are now.
 Tn one particular, at least, it was quite different from any party you have been to, I am sure. And that was that We played a most exciting game called Hunt the Golden Easter Egg It was given by little Lucy Mere dith, whose mamma had prepared the most delicious lunch I ever tasted and who made us children feel thoroughly at home in every way.
 After lunch she led us into a room in which a dim and mysterious light was burning-just one burner of the chandelier, shaded with an orange shade. Indeed, at first we could scarcely see anything before us. But Mrs. Meredith showed us the way and then made us all sit on the floor in a circle around her. Presently I espied huge golden object hanging just un- der the chandelier, and on second look saw it was egg-shaped.
 "'Now children said Lucy's mamma. after we were all seated. a most wonderful thing has happened in this room. No less a parsonage . than Bunny Rabbit has paid us a visit. Bunny Rabbit? Why, bless us, do you mean to say you have never heard of Bunny Rabbit and how, at Easter, he travels around hiding eggs in the most out-of -the-way places one could imagine! Goodness me, that's where the fun comes in! He likes to think of the children hunting and hunting and hunting for them, and crying out with delight when they come across one in the most unex- pected place. Also, every now and then, he leaves a great Golden Egg in a house. And he left one with us last night. There 1t is hanging to the chandelier, right above your heads. Look! See how it glows and glimmers in the lightl
 "'Well, inside that egg Is a prize- one that any child would love to have. But, alas, only one can win it-for Bunny Rabbit has so decreed. See, here is little door, as it were, right in the side of the egg. When the proper time comes I shall lift that little door and inside l will find a tiny piece of paper on which is writ neither you nor 1 nor anyone else knows, except Bunny Rabbit who wrote it and put 1t there.

Celebrating Goster Dog

NF course you know precisely how Fl you will observe this glorious Easter morn; and. no doubt. V you have been planning and looking forward to 1t for some time. First of all, when you awake, you will remember that this is the day held sacred in commemoration of the Resurrection of Christ and, maybe, you will offer up prayer of thanks to God for the victory of His Son over the grave.
 Then after a nice breakfast you will be eager-oh. so eager-to put on all your new Easter finery and go out-of- doors so your little friends and play mates may see you in your gorgeous raiment. There are many, many peo- pie in different parts of the world who are not so minded. and if you read on a little further you will finc set forth several very queer ways some people have of celebrating the Easter season.
 In the far-off land of Servia they have a sword dance. This is held in the streets of the villages and strange to relate+is participated in only by women. Now surely you would not expect women would have anything to do with q sword But they do.
 Dressed in their national costume of colored bodice and skirt, with white linen sleeves and a high up- standing headdress called a "krantz," they go through the steps of the thrilling dance waving swords, or lances, or other weapons of war. The dancing is fierce and exciting, and it is not easy for us to understand how a dance of this sort can fittingly cele- brate so peaceful and joyous an occa- sion as Easter day.
 Another country also marks the day with dancing; it is Niagara whose inhabitants are direct descendants of the old classic Greeks. But their dance is gentle and beautiful. It is called the "Trata" and is said to have been handed down from the days of that celebrated Greek, Aristophanes It, too. is danced by women, but they endeavor to make themselves as beau- tiful as possible instead of fierce and warlike-sometimes in the hopes of "catching a husband" as the saying goes.

 T put in my hand and pulled him out = gently. Everyone crowded around me shouting and clapping their hands. But that was not all Around the little fellows neck was a bright red ribbon. And fastened to the ribbon was the cunningest little gold monogram ring you ever saw!
 "Of course 1t didn't have my mono gram on it-for even Bunny Rabbit did not know which of us would win the prize. But there was the space for the monogram to be engraved upon.
 And you may be sure took 1t down to the jewellers the very next morning. Moreover. Dorothy. have that ring still, and just as soon as you are 8 little bit older shall give 1t to you"

as each little boy or girl finds an egg he must bring it to me and show me the number it bears. Then I will write 1t down opposite his name.
 After every child has found an egg. we will then open the little trap door in the big Golden Easter Egg and take out the piece of paper. And whichever child found the egg that bears the corresponding number wins the big Golden Egg. What is inside 1t I do not know-but Bunny Rabbit always fills it with most wonderful things. Are you all ready now? We'll then-ho for the egg hunt!'
 And. you may be sure, Dorothy. none of us needed further urging! With shrieks of delight we started in to hunt the eggs. Goodness, but it was exciting. There was a wild scram- ble to all parts of the room. Sofa cushions were snatched up and flung on the fioor-but not one of them con- cealed an egg.
 "The doors of the bookcases were opened and the books pulled out to see if, perchance, Bunny Rabbit had concealed any of his eggs behind them. He had. too. and quite a num- Der of them at that. And as each
