CELEBRATION IN

OF Austria. Hungary--Easter is cele-
brated with great fervor and devotion.
The Easter kiss Is a well-known Incl
dent OF these celebrations. A curious
story is told OF Gar Nicholas ii and
the Easter kiss. On leaving his apart
ments one Easter morning he kissed
the guard outside with the usual salu-
tation, Christ Ia risen," TO which the
response is. He Is truly risen" But
the man answered. coolly. HE is not
risen" The emperor was aghast, and
shouted. furiously. He Is riseni" But
the man. with the utmost composure.

saved him.

dox nation. is very much In evidence
In the Holy Land. and OF late years has
asserted her supremacy In the Chris
tendon OF the Orient In many ways
not only by generous contributions In
magnificent buildings and financially.
but also politically in strengthening
the position OF the Greek church. Es-
pecially at Easter II Is interesting to
observe the contrasts which take on
n certain political hue between Latins,
Greeks, Professionals and Gregorians
(Armenians).
Protestant religious activity In Je-
rusalem. which at one time was large

much strengthened by the influx OF
German colonists, especially Suabians.
Away from the ecclesiastical cere-
monial the pilgrim In Easter time
seeks the traditional places where our
Lord spent his last days and nights.
OF these Gethsemane Is the principal
goal. and here the difference in creed
among the many visitors is obliterated
by an earnest and quiet devotion
which is Unexpectedly free from the

offered TO give Mrs. Cole the privilege

the injustice of this decision. saying
that there were twice as many fam

her, so the river road TO Milliken's
mills was grudgingly awarded TO Aunt
Abby by way OF compromise. and the
ladies started on what was tour OF

a subject OF discussion for long. quiet
evenings.
Uncle Bart's joiner's shop was at the
foot OF Guide Board hill on the River

pleasantest spot In the whole village.
The shop itself had CHEEKY look, with
Its weather stained shingles. its small

says Tom BuIlen. What he wants is
to prove himself. He's like a young
horse that hasn't been broke. He's
like a soldier going into battle, who
thinks he's a hero and has to learn
that it will take all his heroism to
keep from running away. If once he
gets up against what he's looking for
he'll sing pretty small and possibly
turn out to be a good Teller"
And then we outlined his plan to us.
We were to stage an attempted alb
duction. Jim and Tom were to put on
SLOUGH hats and kidnap one of the
girls near the parsonage or a dark
night. She'd squeal and the par
son'd come out. There'd be a few
hard knocks given, and then the boys
would find out what sort of chap Mr..
Cunningham was. Nobody'd hurt
him, but the general expectation was
he'd sing so small afterward Nugget
would have a little peace.

That sounded good to US, and espe-
cially to Jim. He wasn't quite sure of
Miss Rose yet, but he calculated that
she wouldn't have much more use for
the parson after he'd shown the white
feather. only you got to holler like

= UST a little advice on the new
Summer figure. Really you can
y take your choice. On one side
you have the big skirts. with the
charming "waterfalls"-"the tent"
line. as they are called-and on the
other you have the peg line. which
is a considerably more close.ftting
costume.
The photographs on this page show
some rather charming examples of
the fuller skirts.
1t would seem that there IS really
going to be something In the nature
of a fght--or. rather. erhaps, a re-
bellion--in the Kingdom OF Dress.
aud that, for once. every one will
not, Immediately and obedIently, Join
in the usual cry of 1.-The -Queen"-of
one Fashion-"is dead!" Long live
the Queen"-of another!
The fact OF the matter is, that the
average woman is afraid OF the new
full skirt and is going TO, literally
and metaphorically. cling to its
scantier, straighter predecessor for
just as long as she can be sure of the
companionship and support OF a
goodly number Of fellow rebels.
For, OF course. the said full skirt
must be very full indeed II Il Is TO
be at all smart, and, what is more.
too. 1t must be distinctly and even
daringly short.
And think what this entails In the
way OF immaculate footwear and
ankles-more particularly. indeed,
anklesi while, also, the new skirt to
be completely successful demands a
certain length and slenderness of
limb from its wearers.
Wherefore. as only one woman In,
say every hundred, has been so
kindly treated by both Nature and
Fortune as to be able to comply with
all the conditions, the reason for the
aforementioned rebellion Is suffi-
GENTLY obvious.
Eventually. however. any and
all opposition will undoubtedly be
quelled, and every one will give in
10 the inevitable. with results more
or less tragical. or comical. or sue
cessful, according TO their skill or
good taste in modifying the new styIe
and skirt, or adapting themselves
and their figures TO the altered cir
cumstances and contours.
So far comparatively few women
are wearing the full skirt In London.
and Of those few the majority are
Americans or Pdrisiernesi One OF
the former made quite a sensation az
