A report was circulated this

And when Balaam saw that it
pleased the Lord to bless Israel. he
went not, as at other times, to seek
for enchantments, but he set his
face toward the wilderness.
And Balaam lifted up his eyes,
and he saw Israel abiding in his
tents according to their tribes; and
the Spirit of God came uron him.
3 And he took up his parable,
and said, Balaam the son of Beor
hath said, and the man whose eyes
are open hath said:
He hath said, which heard the
words of God, which saw the vision
Of the Almighty. falling into a
trance. but having his eyes open:
s How goodly are thy tents, o
Jacob, and thy tabernacles, o Israel!
As the valleys are they spread
forth. as g'trdens by the rivers side,
as the trees of lignaloes which the
Lord hath planted, and as cedar
trees beside the waters.
He shall pour the water out Of
his buckets, and his seed shall be
in many waters. and his king shall
| be higher than Agag, and his king

| 10 \ And Balak's anger was
klndled against Balaam. and he
smote his hands together: and
Balak said unto Balaam. called
tthee to curse mine enemies. and
behold, thou hast altogether bless
ed them these three times.
/ IL Therefore now flee thou to
thy place: / thought to promote
thee unto great honour; but, 10, the
Lord hath kept thee back from
honour.

treasures, but the little vandals think
differently. Sometimes the battle be-
gins at home at the traditional Easter
lunch of currant bread and hard-boiled
eggs. Every member of the family
arms himself with the hardest egg he
can pick out and then the fun is to
beat your egg against that of your
neighbor and try which is the harder
of the two. The egg that breaks is
forfeited to the one who breaks it.
Be sure you will see no wooden
shoes; it must be very poor mother,
indeed, who does not give pair of
''real" shoes to her little ones on
Easter day. Often there is band
playing on the Easter meadow and a
Punch's show to amuse the children,
or a merry-go-round inviting you to
get seasick at the shortest possible
notice. They don't heed that, the lit
tie ones! They sit on the wooden
horses or in the little sleighs and en-
joy being driven round in a circle to
the tune of the barrel organ and the
merry little bell that rings at every
round. And in the evening when the
oil lamps are lighted the merry-go-
round is a gorgeous sight with its
horses, sleighs, bright copper styles
and draperies of red velvet and white
lace. And the grown-up boys and girls
take the places of the little ones, and
their laughter sounds merrily over the
field where the evening dew is falling.
At The End Of the Day.
Then when darkness comes and the
glorious sun Is gone, suddenly on all
sides of the horizon other lights ap-
pear, the Easter bonfires sending their
flames on high as symbol of light
triumphing over darkness, soaring up
ward unto the source of all light and
all purity.
Mystic symbols and quaint old GUS
toms, how far away can we trace
them Through the darkness of the
ages, far away even to before the time
of Christ, whose resurrection is cele-
brated in them with reverence and joy.
Far away to the times of our an
cestors, the ancient German and Saxon
races, whose religion was one with the
veneration of nature, in communion
with which they lived their simple,
strenuous lives.
And so from generation to genera
tion. through all the changes of re-
ligious and political life. the cherished
customs of olden times are held in
reverence in this little corner of Eu-
rope and will be held so in spite of the
levellng influence of modern civiliza-
ton, for immortal through all out
ward change is the soul of nation.-

Palm. palm of Easter
Ell koerei.
After one moro Sunday we shall have
an egg.
One egg is no egg.
Two eggs is half ar egg.
Three eggs is a file Easter egg!
I never could find out what was
meant by the joyous "Ei koerei." 1t
might be corruption of some old
Greek psalm or song, but l must leave
the explanation to classical scholars.
All 1 know is that we used to sing
our palm song until we went to bed
quite hoarse with the singing and rath-
er the worse for the different bites OF
"swan" we had enjoyed in the course
of the day. That glorious prediction
of the "good Easter egg" is largely full
filed, you may be sure.
The soft-eyed, downy Easter hare
does not lay its eggs for US, as it does
for our little German neighbors. Our
eggs are laid by ordinary hens, but
they are wonderful just the same.
Grandmothers, aunts and sisters
amuse themselves by knitting many
colored little nets to hold the Easter
treasures and. on Saturday, mother
hangs up big kettle of some mysteri-
GUS stuff to dye the eggs with. Some
are colored green with spinach leaves,
others red with beet juice. The more
elegant ones are painted by some art
list friend and provided with names
and dates. flowers and even pictures.
The many-colored nets are filled with
eggs and oranges and kept in store to
be given out on Easter morning.
Battle of Eggs Begins.

Easter Light.

The dew Of the first Easter
morning still clings to the SIM
pie story of the Resurrection.
1t refreshes our souls today,
even as it did the faithful ones
who came to the Lords grave.
The story also tells us of the
sunrise, and the Easter sun
has never set, and the light
of it is today making glad the
hearts Of men.

.sM, IN borders of Germany, all
b rN VM kinds of quaint customs
W EEgS still prevail that do not
exist in the big cities of
the West, or in the carni-
val-loving South. Against the time
of Palm Sunday the windows of
the little bakers shops are suddenly
decorated by a collection of odd-look-
ing swans, made of kind. of bread
dough and ornamented by big, black
currant eyes. OF course the shapes
are somewhat primitive and make you
think of the swan you can form out
of the figure 2, but sometimes they
are quite glorious and give us the pic
ture of a big mother swan, with two
or three little ones on her back, an at
titude which gives no end of pleasure
to the little possessors of such
marvel.
Besides the swans you may remark
wheels of the same breadlike material,
about as big as good-sized plate, serv-
ing as a solid basis for the Easter palm
that is going to be made. On Easter
eve, when the little ones have gone TO
bed, father and mother have busy
time constructing that work of art.
First the wheel must be attached to
stick, by which the structure Is to
be carried. Then, on the wheel that
lies horizontally, some six swans are
placed upright, each with twig of FIR
or palm green on head and tail. Then
chains of raisins, prunes and many
colored sugar plums are hung between
the swans and draped around the
wheel. A big orange is fastened in
the middle and the Easter palm is
ready. The parents go on tiptoe to
place 1t before the bed where the lit
tie sleeper is dreaming of tomorrow's
joys.
