In fact although we may know
little about change, we know nothing
Whatever about death, the thing we
fear most For by death we mean
absence of consciousness-yet, while
we remain conscious, such condl-
ton is unthinkable, or at least I'M
possible to realize. In fact. If one
should actually be conscious of death,
it would not be death, for one would
be conscious of unconsciousness-a
proposition contradictory on the face
of it. The very conception Of So
called "state of death" is but an in
dication of the limitless shores which
it is possible for human conscious
ness to traverse.
In the springtime the lily bulb In
the earth begins to expand as If with
the fever to live-that is hope. Later
n watery, white shoot climbs spirally
upward toward the light-that Is
faith. Then a tiny green blade ap-
pears above the ground glad In its
newborn freedom-that is knowl-
edge. The dews gather round the
bright growing thing, the sunbeams
kiss it, the rain falls upon 1t, the
soft winds sing to it, until having
asslmilated something from all the
elements of its blessed new life, the
plant bursts into a blossom of match
less beauty-and that is wisdom.
Marvellous Sun of Life.
To see and know Nature in her
sweetest, tenderest mood, we must
wait for the coming of spring with
its sun and rain and revivifying
winds. To behold the beauty and
breathe the fragrance of the lilies OF
the soul we need only to open our lives
to the Sun of life that is forever shin
ing Just above us. No matter how
cold the winds of the world may be
blowing, no matter though the SHOWS
of time fall on our heads and the
storms of circumstance sweep over u.s.
one moment of realization brings the
springtime of joy again. Realization
of truth and freedom comes with the
absolute surrender of the personal Will

tNxA s8s%SV| the day long celebrated
| G2Jl$&T1@ as the anniversary of
I.ZY'1E&s&H the resurrection of the
EyLSS&2Fp1d Son of God.
KES$6yJGT Nineteen centuries ago
HQ4I IT$M He came to earth wear
@33S$SlE. W ing n garment of flesh,
but He knew His body
for the temple of God; and although
foolish men, who knew not what they
did. attempted to destroy that temple,
fbe Christ that dwelt within those
aaored walls made death His slave,
walked calmly from his tomb and
ceafounded materialism with his ra-
diant presence. Demonstrating the
pawer of the soul over every mega
ttye force, He glorified flesh with
baDtism of heavenly fire, proved the
unity of the natural and the spirit
nal. and so became for all mankind
"the way, the truth, the life" He
had the right to say-as any man
may declare when he has walked
The Way-T and my Father are
one"
There are those who declare that
this resurrection of Him who was
the first fruits of them that slept is
only myth and symbol OF the
possible. His rising was indeed
symbol and promise, but 1t was
more than that; 1t was and is both
n natural fact and spiritual truth
for He rises daily In nature ana In
ts,e soul of man. His glory shines
from every rising sun and, when the
day is ended, his peace comes to man
In the calm of sleep the while lie
smiles from all the glowing stars.
.aTfle dark and the light are both
alike to Him" The Resurrection
was a promise to those who We're
and who are, dead In spirit. for He
that beIieveth on me. though he were
dead. vet shall he live" His resur-
rection was corroboration of the
{ firth realized to great extent by
those already awakened, for "He
that beIieveth on me and liveth shall
never die"
Example of Nature.
AS a fact in nature-and certainly
the resurrection of our Lord was no
axample of the reversal OF the order
of nature-Christ's victory over the
grave was demonstration of that
wondrous system exemplified by
every bursting bud of spring, by the
birth Oa every sentient being, Dy the
constant expansion of the powers OF
Intellect and OF the love of the heart.
In nature resurrection is continuous

Casters Lesson.

From the stars of the night
and the dewy grass of the
spring mornings, in the notes
of the birds and the music of
little rills, through all of the
myriad voices of nature, there
comes the healing touch of pa
thence, TIE consciousness that
vast, eternal forces go on their
majestic way quite untroubied
by the ferment of human
brains and the hot impulses of
human hearts. Men and wom-
en- are inspired and calned by
the spectacle of the wonderful
resurrection which Tery
spring brings to renew their
faith in ultimate good.
