EASTER EGGS

Just look at all the Easter eggs"
she exclaimed, her eyes opening wide.
why do they have SO many different
sizes, Grandma?"
IAN Easter egg does not have to be
one size, my dear" said Grandma, as
they walked on down the street. 1T
is the custom for friends to exchange
eggs at this season Of the year and
people with big pocketbooks want to
send big eggs to show their big regard
for their friends. Though it is by no
means a mark of poor regard to send
small egg, after all 1t Is not the egg
that counts but the thought that
prompted the sending"
But I thought candy Easter eggs
were modelled after real chickens
eggs" said Nellie.
They are in shape, but In nothing
else. Easter eggs come in all colors
and kinds. Hard boiled eggs dyed or
colored make very pretty eggs for an
Easter basket. In some countries l
have seen eggs made Of glass, and
even of soap. Once I saw a leather
egg which was filed with needles and
spools and other sewing equipment.
Wooden and porcelain eggs used to be
common abroad and have even heard
Of egg-shaped lockets made Of solid
gold.
"Oh, my" said Nellie, II should be
afraid to wear anything SO precious as
that. But why do we always have
eggs connected with Easter timer"
Eggs are the symbols Of life ever
lasting. Their surface is smooth and
complete, without break, without be-
ginning and without end. In nearly

acte-s. The Pope made him master
archl ect at st. Peters, and while in
this POST he worked and painted un-
ceasingiy. He must have had pre-
monition that his days would be few
for he begrudged the world every hour
spent away from his work. He is said
to have produced more pictures than
any other artist and he was but thirty
seven years old when he died.
All of Italy went into mourning for
the young genius whose light was so
early put out. He was mourned not
only as great artist. but as a greatly
beloved man for every one admired
and respected him. Surely no one
who could paint such beautiful pic
lures as did Raphael could be any
thing but gentle and loveable. It Is
said that his nature was SO kind and
sweet that even the animals loved
him. and that he left behind him no

(Raphael-Born March %. 1850
1T has been said of Raphael that
had he been born without hands he
would nevertheless have been a
/ y great painter. He was born In
Urbino in 1888 and before he had
reached the age of twenty-five fame
had smiled upon him and the stories
of his beautiful works had spread to
Rome and he was invited to come to
that city by the Emperor julius IL.
One Of the greatest influences in the
artistic life of Raphael was the work
Of his master Michael Angelo.
Like many other men OF note
Raphael's life was short, but 1t was
crowded with work that was to be-
come classic and world famed. In
his art he linked religion and beauty
and most of his best known paintings
are Of Madonnas and religious char

all religions there Is celebrated a
spring festival and in many OF the
observances of these festivals refer
ence is found to the egg. Spring time
is a time Of reawaking, rebirth and
new life over all the earth. and it is
natural that the egg, the symbol Of
life eternal should find a place in the
observance OF our spring holiday
Easter. Would you like to have an
Easter egg. Nellie?"
Would she! What little girl would
not? And so they went into a large
candy store and Grandma told Nellie
to pick out what ever she liked best.
And what do you suppose the little
country girl chose from that grand
array? Not the big chocolate and
sugar coated one! Not the crystal
eggs with a hole in 1t through which
you could see . pretty picture! Not

looked 50 sad that Alice said: Were
going after pussy willows this after
noon and we'll take you along"
So It was a very happy little girl
that got on the trolley car near the
creek where the pussy willows grew.
Jim knew the place and Alice said
that afterwards they could 60 little
way into the woods and pick some
violets.
The silvery little pussy willows were
peeping out Of their brown shells and
Jimmy cut good big bunch so that
there would be enough for all the
vases at home Then Nathalie found
that she could not keep up with
the others but she was used to tagging
along behind and only called: 'Wait
a minute!" twice. But 1t would have
been more fun II Alice had only gone
little bit slower.
I'll be eleven too some day." she
thought. then l can keep up"
Just then she heard a little NEW
close to her and following the sound
she looked up and there on tree sat
lovely yellow cat.
"Oh!" she exclaimed. Come,
kitty"
Down came the cat and began rub
bling its nose against the little girls

First lay out and cut to length the
three uprights just mentioned. On
them lay off the locations of the va
rious parts that are to be attached to
them. keeping in mind the direction
concerning the distances X and Y.
Braces and hand drills vary in size
and these distances should be made to
suit the size of the tools you will use

shown completely dimensioned. some
changes may also have to be made to
accommodate the particular brace or
drill that you will use.
Next lay out and cut to shape the

ly. but he wouldn't touch the milk.
Say" cried Jim, coming in looking
very pale. II can't find Pink" He
held in his hand the little flimsy crate
in which the rabbit had come. He
had meant to make a nice hutch for it
later but for the present he had put it
back into the crate. One side Of the
crate was sprung and there was no
rabbit inside. Pink can't have got
ten out by himself" Then his eye fell
on Daffodil. Il bet your old cat did
it," he cried.
Just then in ran Alice looking pale.
"My chick is gone!" she cried. 1--WE

upset and the cover was off and I
found few feathers on the rug!"

In her arms. He seemed to know that
he was going to good home for he
sat SO quiet in the street car that you
never would have known he was there.
Mother seemed pleased when she saw
him.
IT'S beauty" she exclaimed. "Of
course you may keep him. I think you
have right to have an Easter pet too
and he's a lovely color-just exactly
like bunch Of daffodils!"
All night Nathalie dreamed Of fields
waving with yellow daffodils through
which her pussy wended his way and
early Easter morning she jumped up,
dressed and then tapped on her moth
er's door.
Happy Easter!" she called, and
then ran down to look at her pet.
There he sat on the hall mat, wash
ing his face.

asked Nathalie. You were shut up
in the kitchen"
1t was easy enough to answer that
question. Daffodr had merely pushed
open the swinging door between the
kitchen and dining room. He was Just
having a green ribbon tied around his
neck when down came Alice and Jim.
"Oh. look at my Easter kitty" cried
the proud Nathalie.
"Huh!" grunted Jim. "Cats aren't
Easter pets. but rabbits are" And he
went to find Pink, his rabbit.
Chickens are. useful even after
Easter" said Alice. II mean to have
eggs when my chick grows up" And
of she went.

TN choose the feathery one," said
Jim. But where is it? Say! there
aren't any goldfish"
"Oh. dear. dear!" mourned Mother.
"Daffodil's eaten them tool"
"Oh. I'm so sorry!" cried Nathalie.
But now Daffodil belongs to US all
cause he's got the rabbit and Alice's
chick and your goldfish inside of him
and that makes him belong to the
whole family"
That's a good way to settle IT,
exclaimed Mother. -Four pets in one!
Come, Jim and Alice, cheer up! We
can't have mournful faces around at

completely dimensioned on the assem-.
bly, drawing.
Start assembling by fastening the
middle upright to the plank, first hav-
ing cut the latter to shape and fasten-
ing the narrow cross piece to it. Braces
G should next be put in place and fas-
tened. Next put the shorter uprights
in position, securing them by means
of the parts shown in the section MN
Hold braces F in position in order to
locate the position for the small blocks
shown in the side view and in the
sketch at o. Nail the latter in place
and then fasten parts F.
1t will probably be well to next at
tach all the parts to the uprights A. B,
c, etc. These should be given con-
siderable care, for in order to have
the drill or the bit operate accurately,
the centers of the various holes
should be exactly above each other
bored in c must be exactly above the
center Of the hole bored in D. The
success of your work will depend upon
how carefully and accurately you have
made the various pieces. and also upon
how accurately you fasten them In
place.
The last Job will be the locating and
fastening Of parts j. The outside end
of these pieces should be 10 inches
from the floor. Hold them in place
and mark the locations for the holes
for the bolts. after which bore the
holes and fasten in place with bolts as
indicated. The latter should be OF a
length that will permit tightening JUST
enough to hold securely but to permit
of easy operation.
This tool will not have caused you a
great deal of hard work and will prove
exceedingly useful IN many Mavs.
