Good Manners a Business Asset.

The teaching of good manners in
the public schools is being agtated
in the state of New York by DR.. John
H. Finley, state commissioner of edu-
cation.
Good manners" he declares, met
only lead to added friendships social
standing and progress in business, not
only are one of the keys to the gates
of wealth, but practice in manners is
the most valuable kind of spiritual
discipline"
Doctor Finley goes on to explain
that training in good manners has en-
abled more than one person to retain
his self-control in a trying situation.
"And self-control," he says, sis the
edge you have on the other fellow"

turtles, it was impossible TO lure the
masses entirely away from pre-Lenten
festivities and in some districts the
period was extended from the twelfth
day of Epiphany to Ash Wednesday.
This period presently gained title as
the carnival" period. the word being
derived from the Latin carnis, flesh,
and vale, farewell, signifying: rare
well TO the flesh. According TO an
other authority the derivation is from
carnis and levamen, solace. meaning
the solace of the flesh, but the former
seems the more probable origin Of
the term. In modern Rome these fes-
tivities are limited to eight days. In
several southern cities of the United
States. as New Orleans, Memphis, No.
bile and Galveston, shSrr carnival
celebrations are held each year begin
ming on Monday before Ash Wednes-
day and continuing through Shrove
Tuesday. Mardi Gras is applied 10

The Roman Catholic Church Built Over the Grotto of the

year varies from 353 to 1856 days and
because of this irregularity the Jew
-ish new year may occur anywhere be-
tween September 5 and October 5.
All other dates, including the Pass
over, are movable because of this
popularity of the calendar.
In 325 A. d. the date of the Easter
feast, in dispute because of calendar
and religious differences, was finally
settled, but this did not obviate all
difficulties. Because of the imperfec-
tons of the Julian calendar days of
the month and year began to fall be-
hind. BY the year 1882 the calendar
was 10 days behind and the vernal
equinox, supposed to fall invariably
caused difficulty in fixing the correct
date of the Easter celebration and
because of that the Gregorian re-
formed calendar was invented and
adopted.
This festival was always preceded
by fast of some duration. AT first
the fast began on Good Friday and
continued for 40 hours. A little later
it was extended to three days and
later still it was extended to a week
known as Holy week, during which
there was general abstinence from
flesh meats. The first mention of
the fast, corresponding closely to our
present Lenten period, occurs in the
fifth canon of the council of Nicea in
which it is styled "the quadrigesima"
or 40 days.

The Two
Greatest
of the
Christian
World

Easter, like Christmas, is a season
of great rejoicing throughout the
Christian world, writes George B.
Catlin in the Detroit News. The two
might be termed the alpha and the
omega of Christian festivals, since
one celebrates the nativity and the
other the resurrection of the Lord
Jesus Christ from death and the
grave.
AS the early Christian records are
fragmentary and imperfect it is I'M
possible to determine when the cele-
bration of Easter began. The early
Christians of the church in the East
were mostly converts from Judaism
and these Christians continued the
observance of the principal feasts and
fasts OF their ancestors, the ancient
Israelites.
The death and resurrection of Christ
occurred at about the time of the
Passover, which Jesus and his dis
ciples had gone to Jerusalem to OBJ
serve. The Last Supper, held in an
upper room" of private home in
Jerusalem, by some authorities sup
posed to be in the home of the mothers
of st, Mark, was the Feast of the
Passover.
The only allusion in the New Tesla
ment that would indicate very early
observance of Easter, as a feast cele-
brating the Resurrection. is in the
first collection of the letters of ST.
Paul to the Christians of the church
in Corinth; fifth chapter and seventh
and eighth verses: purge out the
old leaven. that We may be new
lump, even as We are unleavened.
For our passover also has been sac
rificed, even Christ: wherefore let
US keep the feast, not with the old
leaven, neither with the leaven of
malice and wickedness. but with the
unleavened bread of sincerity and
truth"
In the subsequent records the first
alluSion TO Easter is in connection
with a dispute between two groups
of Christians as TO the date of the
the second century of the Christian
era, PolycrateS. bishop of Ephesus,
and Irenaeus, bishop of Lyons, wrote
letters TO Victor of Rome, differing
with him on the subject of the proper
date for the feast.
The crucifixion occurred on the
sixth day of the week, or Friday. The
following day was the Jewish Sabbath
and the Resurrection occurred on the
first day of the week. The early
Christians of Jewish ancestry wished
TO signify their separation from their
former faith, so, presently, they
ceased to observe the Jewish Sabbath
and made their holy day Sunday, the
first day of the week.
3, The Jewish calendar is based on the
phases of the moon, having months
of % and so days alternately. The
days OF the month in the Jewish cal
endar, therefore. change from year
to year during a period of 10 years
or the metonic cycle, at the end of
which period the phases of the moon
reoccur on the same day. A partial
readjuStment of the dates is achieved
by introducing an extra or interclary
month in the third, sixth, eighth.
eleventh, fourteenth, seventeenth and
nineteenth years.
The Years having this interclary
lonth are known as "embolismic"
ears. The length of the Jewish

Easter.-and the umoer mold
Feels a kindling thrill of gold
Gold upon the willow tips,
Gold upon the crocus lips;
Feathery gold of baltimore
And the colts-foot by the shore!
Easter,-and the bluebird's wing
Shows an azure shimmering;
On the robins breast there glints
Presage of the roses tints.
While the grackle's prismy throat
Glistens with each warbled note.
Easter!-and the lyric stream
Wakens from its winter dream:
Every strain the south wind breathes
Some fond prophecy bequeathes;
Every bough, a throbbing Tyre.
Voices some aroused desire.
Easter,-and the wondrous clue
10 the marvel ever new
Earth's renascence, wherein we
See revived mortality.
AS in root and branch and bole!-
Easter-and the quickened soul!

When Tom jumped in, Mr.. Rat as
quick as a streak ran up the box and
tipped the cover, and down 1t came
with a bang.
Are you dead yet" asked Mr.. Rat.
Mr.. Tom, to make him think he was,
did not reply, but when he tried to
jump out of the box, to his surprise,
the cover was so heavy he could not
move it.
Mr.. Rat was safe, and he decided he
would not run just yet, so he asked:
Are you there, Mr.. Tom?"
Eyes, I came to life again; open the
cover and'I will show you" was the
reply.
ooh, I'll take your word for it," said
Mr.. Rat "YOu have five lives left
and / have only one, and if l let you
out my one life would not be worth
a grain of corn.
II will take your word for it, Mr..
Tom, that you are alive and as you
have five Of your lives still left l will
take care you do not see me again.
Good-by. l hope you get out before
your other five lives are used up"
Poor Mr.. Tom meowed so loudly
that some one heard him and let him
out, but he stayed in the meal box
so long that he almost smothered, and
he was not at all sure after that
whether he had five lives left or only
one.
