100 Qutiful to re1uSe TO obey the
commands Of her father, too loving to
be untrue to her own heart, she knew
not what to do, so going out unto the
mountains she prayed TO heaven for
deliverance, and the gods, who hear
the prayers of those who trust, chang
ed her into tall lily, with petals
white as Der fair skin and golden pis-
til that shone as had her flowing
tresses.
Years passed and Plini wandered
the whole world through seeking for
his lost love. From every passerby he
asked, ''Have you seen Tamara, the
fairest of maidens?" To the wild
winds as they blew he prayed, "Oh,
find for me my love-" But no an.
swer came until home once more in his
own country he found and knew the
lily. Falling on his knees beside it he
cried, "Is it indeed thee, oh, Tamara?"
and, like the sigh Of the soft south
wind he heard the flower whisper, 1T
is I, my beloved"
Then, all his years Of fruitless search
past, he clasped the blossom to his
heart and wept, and the flower, feel
ing the warm tears of love, blushed
rosy with joy. But what was life to
him when she who made the sunshine
of his heart was gone? So the merci-
full gods changed him to shower,
which ever and anon falls in refresh
ing rain on the lilies of the Caucasus,
and when there Is drouth in the land
the maidens gather the flowers of Ia
mara and strew them over the fields
singing as they go the song of Plini,
invoking his love that once more he
may bring the blush of joy to the pet
ais of his beloved.
Records LiIy's Shame.
Among the Christian legends of the
lily we find the origin Of the tiger, or
turncap. All lilies were in the begin
ming white, and all held their fair
heads proudly erect, but on the night
in which Christ suffered in the garden
Of Gethsemane some fell from grace.
When the other flowers became aware
VI lid d6oHy' lAey "llAeieu away with
sorrow and pity. Only one lily was in
different, and when those three bitter
hours had passed, still Haunted her
spOtless beauty in the light of the
moon. The soldiers came and Jesus
was led out from the Garden of Olives.
He paused for a moment beside the
tall stem covered with the white flow
ers; for moment he gazed on them
in plying reproach for their blindness
and their hardness of heart, and touch
ed by the love and mercy in his eyes
they hung their heads and blushed; so,
to this hour, the descendants of this
proud, hard-hearted plant look down
and shame dyes their petals.

Gain THROUGH SUFFERING,

Do not think to triumph without
merging your life in the life Of the
race. Come out from your monastic
cell; come away from your place of
exclusiveness; come down from your
hill Of privilege and of pride. Live
the life Of the world.
And do not think to live the life OF
the world without discipline Of pain.
No suffering, no reigning; no tears, no
crown. The triumph of the resurrec-
ton had not been except for the ira
vail of Calvary. Power is built on
pain. "He who loseth his life shall
find It,"

=, Religious services were almost con-
'tinuous day and night through Lent,
all mosques and Christian churches be-
ing open to the worshipers. The fast
of Lent is rigidly observed by the
Greek, Russian, Armenian, Syriac and
Coptic sects. Their diet is limited to
bread, vegetables, fruit and vegetable
oils, and on special days, only a little
fish is allowed. The Catholic commu-
nifty abstains from animal flesh diet,
but not from eggs, butter and milk.
Land Hurt by the War.
This season is also important in a
commercial sense. The manufacture
of all kinds of relics and souvenirs
occupies many Of the citizens of Jeru-
salem and Bethlehem during the rest
of the year. These are bought by the
pilgrims in great quantities. not only
for themselves, but also for those at
home who could not make the pilgrim
age. These devotees, who, as rule,
live In the Holy Land from Christmas
to Easter, visiting all its sacred shrines
and hallowed cities, bring much money
into the country, also merchandise for
sale, hence the failure of the pilgrim
visitors since the beginning of the de-
vastating European war has caused
unmitigated suffering in Palestine.
Early in the morning of Palm Sun
day the patriarchs of the above men
toned Christian sects give personally
a genuine date-palm branch to any per-
son who will come forward to the Off
ciating hierarch and accept it. This
beautiful ceremony takes place in the
Cathedral of the Holy Sepulcher in
celebration of the triumphal entry of
the Savior into Jerusalem.

~ f oil the flowers that grow
there are few about which
as many stories are told as
the lily; from all parts of
the world they come, weaving a fair
cloak of romance around the blossom
that surpasseth "Solomon in all his
glory"
The lilies of the Caucasus, for exam
pie, change their color after the rain
has fallen, their white petals blushing
rosy pink at the kiss of the shower
and the peasants will not fail to give
you the reason should you ask.
Long long centuries ago, they will
tell you, there lived a valiant soldier
who had one daughter, Tamara, the
most beautiful maiden the world had
ever seen. White was her skin and
bright as. gold her long silken curls,
and all who saw her loved her for her
beauty and her charm. War broke
out in a neighboring country, and her
father was called to arms. Long and
bravely he fought and ever by his side
rode his friend, the chief of a nearby
castle, until one bitter day an arrow
found his comrades heart.
When the war was over, he came
home once more, bringing with him
Plini, young lad the son of his fall
en- comrade. Between Plini and Ia
mara a close friendship grew. She, as
was the custom Of the times, had learn
ed to weave and embroider, but furth-
er learning had she none, so he de-
lighted in teaching her the songs Of
Greece while he accompanied her on
the harp. Day in and day out, they
wandered together through the woods
and fields, gathering the flowers that
grew by the way, and together singing
so that the very birds hushed their
melody to listen. They were only chill
dren, and their merry laughter rang
through the air as they ran and leaped
in Joy of heart. but little by little
they grew more silent and as they
walked their hands would seek and
find each the others.
Changed Into Lily.
Then the nature Of their singing;
changed and sad, sweet melodies re-
placed the Joyous tunes of childhood.
The harp sobbed and sighed with I'M
spoken love and long, strange silences
fell between them. For months they
wandered thus, not understanding the
secret of their hearts, until one day
Tamara was claimed by the great chief
to whom her hand had been long prom.
Used.

Common Easter Beliefs,

It is considered by many unlucky to
omit wearing new clothes on Easter
day. To see lamb out of the window
on Easter morning is a good omen, es-
pecially If its head be turned in the
direction Of the house. To meet a lamb
Is lucky, as, according to the popular
notion, tie devil can take any other
form than that Of Z lamb or dove.

DAY of Victory.

Easter is not the celebration of
serene and untroub1ed righteousness.
1t is no festival of life always secure
in the enjoyment Of mastery over ma
lign forces. Easter is the day which
commentaries supreme victory Of
good over evil temporarily triumphant
and newly overthrown. It is sacred to
resurrection. and resurrection implies
at least the brief ascendency of death.
