sweet, spirituelle portrayal. Tit

Durer was born at Nuremburg in
1471. At an early age he displayed
great talent in drawing and In 1885
his father a~pprenticed him to the
great painter Wohlgemuth, with
whom he studied several years. Lat
er he studied In Venice and travelled
to all the art centers, where he made
friends with the most noted men Of
bis time, being particularly friendly
with Martin Luther. His coloring
Is faultless and the faces, especially
in his religious pictures, are regarded
as almost sublime in their dignity.
He was a man of great piety and in
sympathy with the reformation move
ment. He died In 1923.

OLD BELIEFS ABOUT EASTER
Deep-Rooted Ideas That Have Been
Current From the Earliest Days
Of the Celebration.

There is an old weather supersti-
tion to the effect that If the sun shines
on Easter It viii shine on Whitsun-
day
II you battle with cold water on
Easter day, you will keep well all the
year.
Theme is another old superstition
about eggs. and that is to rub over
the face IN egg that has been colored
for Easter to have "a nice complexion.
To CRY on Easter Is a sign you
will cry the following Sunday, toe.
1t is bad lnck to keep Easter eggs.
They should be destroyed.
If a rabbit runs across your path
on Easter Sunday II is a good luck
sign.
For the lovelorn. there is a warning
that II should not get engaged on
Easter Sunday, else the engagement
viii be broken.
"Give a man a red egg at Easter
to ecu his love-" is an old gypsy
amendment.
, 1921-03-24

1t seems fitting that at Easter time
ones thoughts should turn to the art
galleries which contain the famous
paintings portraying the crucifixion
and resurrection of our Savior. For
generations most of them have hung
upon the walls of museums of Eu-
rope and have been an inspiration
not only to lovers of art, but to all
Christians as well who have studied
and admired the conception of the
artist and the manner in which that
conception has been portrayed on the
canvas.
RUBENs.
One Of the worlds most noted
paintings showing Christ on the Gross
Is by Peter Paul Rubens. 1t has but
the one figure-the dying Christ.
hanging on the cross. The back
ground is dark, the sky being almost
black. which brings out more fully the
real beauty and richness Of the work.
The head of Christ has fallen against
the right arm and a peaceful
preston is on the face, showing that
the agony has passed. The body
has -sagged and the muscles of the
arms are prominent. Blood trickles
from the nail holes In the hands cnd
feet, while hat from the wound in the
side has dripped on the loin cloth,
which Is draped in graceful fashion.
The figure is well drawn, being n
perfectly natural form of q tall slen-
der man OF the age of Christ ut the
time of His crucifxion.
Rubens painted many pictures o.
the Christ, but this one is by far the
most striking and beautiful. He was
the chief master of the Flemish school
OF painting, and was one OF the most
ginning the study of art early In
fife he worked under many famous
painters, particularly in Venice and
Rome. He was "A man of scholarly
attafnments, speaking six languages,
and was intimately acquainted with
nearly every ruler In Europe, the ma

Ecce Homo (Behold the MANI by
Andrea Solario, presents an entirely
different conception of Christ. A
bleeding head crowned with thorns Is
against a black background. The red
robe has fallen from one shoulder,
leaving the arm and part of the chest
nude. The hands are tied together,
one holding a long thin pointed stick.
The face Is almost stern with its
tightly drawn mouth. The eyes are
lowered and there Is a tear drop
falling from the left Indeed SO
remarkable is this painted tear drop
that people stand fascinated before
the picture, some of them declaring
1t is a rea tear. The face shows
the Man In deep thought. The pic
ture is In the gallery at Milan and
is by far the most striking of the
entire collection.
