but he didn't propose. Was he too
bashful? The girl, at any rate, one
afternoon in a tea garden, offered to
read his fture, and holding his big
brown hand in her slim white one, she
murmured, as her fingers moved deli
cately across his palm:
""This line indicates that before you

She paused, with downcast eyes. But
nothing followed. The young man sat
beside her, grinning sheepishly. Her
lip curled In disdain, and she added In

COL.0RING EASTER EGGS.

The coloring Of eggs for Easter is an
old, old custom. Anciently. the grown
ups presented these eggs to each other,
the children coming in for a share, but
In modern times these favors have been
In this country at least, almost exclu-
sively for the children. The ease with
which these Easter eggs are now col
ored, by means of aniline dyes, de-
tracts, no doubt, from the pomp and
circumstances that attended the color
ing OF these Easter favors in the days
OF our grandmothers when the dyeing
was done with logwood, indigo and
madden. Now and then o grandmother
with finer artistic sense would sew the
eggs into bits Of fadable calico, from
which would be printed some rare and
radiant Dolly Warden patterns, which
were a delight to look upon. Such
treasures were often cherished in the
household, displayed in a dish or the
parlor m~antelpiece for weeks and
months to be shown to visitors. that
they might marvel at grandpother's
wondrous art. And at the end OF this
erything, these long kept trophies were
regretfully fed to old dog Tray. ever
faithful,
Years ago 1t was customary in some
Sunday schools to provide great guam
titles Of colored eggs for Easter to be
given to the children. 1t took no small
amoun Of time and care to prepare
this donation, as beside the color each
egg was to bear upon its side a brief
bible text written through the color
with a pen dipped in acid. This re-
moved the color and the letters of the
text showed up in cleaning White.
In England, in the quaint old town
of Chester, the Pace or Pask eggs
(from the French word Pasque for
Eastern going back almost to the time
of William the Conqueror, were not
forgotten. Then, as now, the eggs were
boiled very hard In water colored with
red, blue or violet dyes, and inscrip-
lions were written upon them. An old
chronicle says: Eggs were always in
such demand at that season that they
always rose greatly In prfce'-which
would indicate that the law of supply
and demand was In full vigor even al
that early time and eve without the
meretricious aid OF the storage house
and the middleman.
The same chronicle notes that ''boys
played with eggs as balls, for ball play
Ing on Easter Monday was engaged In
by every rank; sven the clergy could
not forego its delights and made this
game a part of their service. Bishops
and deans took the ball Cor egg) into
the church and at the beginning Of the
antiphone began to dance, throwing II
to the choristers, who handed II to each
other during the time Of the dancing
n antiphone."

HOLY WEEK.
From the Indlanapoll. Ner..

In the round Of days no span Of Q
week marks the fickleness OF human
nature as does the one drawing to q
close. The same multitude that cried,
"Hosanna to the Son OF David. blessed
be He that cometh in the name of the
Lord" only a few days later cried.
Cruelty Himl" He was welcomed an
q king, and Immediately on His entry
into the city on Palm Sunday He ex-
ercised kingly authority, as when He
purified the temple, clearing II Of
hucksters n money changers. His
followexs today a find few more
profitable subjects for meditation than
this cleansing Of the temple-this call
tng the people back to the realities Of
their religion. The days following
were crowded with events. The ac-.
claimed King spoke some OF His most
wonderful parallels. He COMPOUNDED the
scholars In several doctrinal contro-
versies, told OF His second coming ate
the Passover, and instituted the Lords
supper. Finally He was "crucified.
dead and buried"
The week is the most solemn Of the
Christian year. In the life OF Him who
was q man Of sorrow and acquainted
with GRIEF no other days were so bur-
dened with suffering and sadness, or

was ended, was nailed for our advan-
tage to the bitter cross" 1t Is this
consummation that the time comment
crates.
Christianity is essentially a joyous
religion and ends with the resurrection.
Even those who deny h King are not
proof against the ~joyousness that halls
the day Of His birth. But vel those
who own Him reckon little of His
death. The world does not often keep
death days, though the calendar Is
studded with the birthdays of men that
have left their impress on their time.
Christ's death means as much to he
world a. His birth. Memories such as
those that cluster about the crucitixion
ought to be very precious to Christians.
They draw the human heart for a brief
season to a contemplation Of the suf-
suffering that has made its Joy whole
some, and that, when truly realized by
the heart, must chasten and purify It

Europe Loses Sweet Tooth,

Tho girls they left behind them
when the British Tommy. his French
colleague and his German enemy went
off to the war suffered a good deal
more than has been supposed up to
this time.
The candy export figures from this
country prove it. Europe curtailed the
bean supply of the United States when
Austria's exports were stopped. Now
America has retaliated by reducing
the quantity of candy sent to the old
world.
The first five months of the war
caused a decrease Of $153,823 in value
of candy exports from the United
States, as compared with the same
period Of the year before. The value
of the total exports Of candy for the
calendar year was $1.1S5,8 1894.
