EfzzwHE lily, whose purity and beau
ty have become the symbol OF
the Christian Easter, is, accord
ing to the flower genealogists, Chinese,
though it appeared as long as 5000
years before the Christian era as a
theme of decoration on Egyptian and
Assyrian monuments.
'The original lily" says the South
ern Workman, "is believed to be the
oldest of all plants" and it observes
that it is the only one that has none
but regal relatives. The kinfolk Of the
rose are very poor. The c~hrysanthe-
mum has been brought out of almost
the weed state, but the lily is an aris-
tocrat that seems to have been so d1-
vinely nodded that a has been I'M
able to change it materially. Even the
Japanese are content almost to wor-
ship it as it is. Little Japanese tots
never look so charming as when they
are admiring this thing which brings
the divine beauty of the wonderful
world into even the most mental sur
roundings. Often this queen is found
standing majestic and adored in a sim
pie vase or bottle in the workshops,
even in blacksmith shops.
On this side of the world Bermuda
is the great lily %storehouse. Those who
visit the islands in the month of April
can ride for miles over the finest nat
ural roads in the world-those in Bar
bados alone eXcepted-among fields of
pure white flowers, growing in such
profusion that the ground is not visi-
BILE.
Nothing is to be seen but masses of
white and green. There are over 200
such farms. some from thirty to forty
acres in extent. devoted exclusively to
lily growing. ghe heavy perfume can
often be GiKe ed a mile or more
away. The LA rance of a bunch of
lilies ~delicately seeming a room or
church is very different from the over
towering fragrance eXhaled from an
immense farm. The natives, however,
are quite resigned to the heavy per-
fume, knowing that acre for acre the
growing lily is three or four times as
profitable as the other products of the
islands. Lily bulbs were first brought
to the islands from Japan.

oueer Palm SUNDAY Custom.

In Lincolnshire, England, there is a
singular ceremony on Palm Sunday in
Castor church. A deputy from Brough-
ton brings in a very large whip, with
large thongs of strong white leather.
During the early part of the service in
the church a man named for the pur-
pose comes to the door and cracks the
whip three times, then, with much GER
emory, wraps the thong around the
stock Of the whip, puts some rods of
mountain ash upon it and binds the
whole together with a whipcord.
Then he ties to the top of the whip
stock a purse containing 2 shillings
about 80 cents, then takes the whole
and marches into the church, where he
stands silently until the first lesson of
the service is finished. He then goes
up nearer, waves the purse over the
clergyman's head, kneels down on a
cushion and there waits, with the purse
suspended, until the lesson is ended.
After the service is over he carries the
curious whip to the next hamlet.

also shows how to hold the work. Be-
gin at the inner end, the end farthest
away from the edge, and work away
from you, not toward you. Make the
end lear the edge round, and finish
the inner end with a straight bar Of
buttonholing. The round end is to re-
ceive the shank of the button. A
lengthwise ~buttonhole, on the other
hand, has both ends finished with a
straight bar of buttonholing.
Finally whip the %buttonhole edges
together, then press them well on the
wong side under a damp cloth. This
will bring them into perfect shape.
Never use cotton thread for button
holing unless you are working on cot
ton materials, where the luster of silk
would not be desired. On silks, wool
ems, chiffons, etc.. you do want the
luster, however, and not only does the
buttonhole silk twist make a far
stronger and better looking b~uttonhole,
but it does not fade or gather the dust
the way cotton does.

Speaking of the high cost of living, a
California pioneer recalled the apple
pie given the children of 1852 to ap-
pease their homesick cravings when
apples were 81 a pound.
The pie was made by breaking four
or five soda crackers into an earthen
bowl and pouring over them a pint of
cold water rendered very tart by citric
acid. When soft the crackers were
laid on a pie plate on the undercrust.
Over them We're sifted two tablespoon
fuls of light brown sugar and a little
allspice and cinnamon. A pretty per-
forated top crdst was added, and in a
few minutes a perfect apple pie was
taken from the oven.

. HEY are really the most fascinat-

THEY are really the most fascinat-
ing things! And, while the
stitch is the same for every kind
of buttonhole, there are all sorts OF
different ways"of beginning your but
tonhole.
The single strand Of thread you see
in No. 1 is one way Of strengthening
the cut edges. 1t does very well for
materials of a firm a Flimsy
materials, or those that ravel easily,
should have the edges lightly overcast
to give them sufficient firmness.
On coats, where there are several
thicknesses of material to be worked
over together, hold these thicknesses
fatty together by placing a row of
machine stitching along either side of
the line where you intend to cut your
~buttonhole. These will take the place
of the strands you see in No. 1. With
out this your buttonhole would not be
smooth.
No. 2 shows you the buttonhole
stitch better than any words can. 1t

The Fourth Estate.

Thomas Carlyle says that the term
fourth estate" was first applied to the
newspapers by Edmund Burke when
speaking in the house of commons about
1890. In consequence of the freedom
which had been won for it during the
reign of William of Orange the press
had by the time of Burke become the
power which well deserved to rank up
one of the estates of the realm, one of
the great creative forces of the king
dom.

Easter Soma.

How shall 1 know the swallows wing
Will cleave once more the air of spring,
And the rattle crocus bud again
Shoot upward in the April rain
Until it bursts to blossoming?
How shall I know the velvet moss,
numbered, will renew its gloss,
The thicket-hidden thrush rehearse
The music of its vesper verse,
And joyance follow after loss?
Through all the darkness and the dole,
Lik some t-ranscendent aureole,
Like some fair pharos on a height
Flinging its beams athwart the night.
Faith shall reveal the way, o soul!

VALUE OF TIM E.

Do not waste even the most
fleeting instant of time. Bind
together your spare hours by
the cord of some definite pur-
pose and you know not how
much you may accomplish. A
man is commonly either made or

makes of his leisure time.-Tay-

Morning

MHAT tidings of reverent glad
w ness are voiced by the bells
that ring
a summons to men to gather today
in the courts of Christ the King!
We come to our dear Lords altar.
What brightness greets US there!
The gloom of the winter has van
ished, and beauty is everywhere.
Oh, beautiful, beautiful lilies, what
truths you typify!
You seemed to die in the autumn,
and yet you did not die.
"Alleluia!" the choir is chanting,
with joyous, jubilant voice.
"The Lord is risen, is risen! Re-
joice, rejoice, rejoice!"
"He is risenf' Oh, glorious message!
"He lives who once was dead"
And hearts that were heavy, with
sorrow hear and are comforted.
From the censor cups of the lilies
rise scents of myrrh and balm,
And the soul, like a lark, scars up
ward, winged with the Easter
psalm.
And on this Easter morning, while
joyful voices sing,
You repeat to all the lesson Of the
miracle of spring.
From the tomb in which men laid
him the stone is rolled away,
And, 10, the Christ they sing of is
here in our midst today!
