The Russian Ballet.

M. Diaghileff's Russian ballet has re-
placed grand opera at Covent Garden
and with the change in entertainment
has come great change in the type
of audience.
SatelinesS and a certain flavor Of
Edwardian grace always apparent on
opera nights in spite of the absence Of
tiaras and long white gloves, have
given way to the more sprightly If
less elegant posturings of the youth

Long-haired young men in blue fan
mel shirts express their rapturous de-
light in new ballet by extravagant
gestures worthy of Serge Lifar himself
One young man, respondent in long
opera cloak fastened at the neck with

: This place was chosen because it
stands on the actual site of Thomas
More's home in Chelsea. In the nuns
garden are part of a Tudor hall. and

Sir Thomas gathered fruit from it.
The King has lent two Holbein
sketches. One is of More and the
other Of his favorite daughter, Margaret

large selection of MSS and other relics.
One of the chief exhibits Is the hair

Devon.
There is a statue of Sir Thomas More
in Carey street. near the Law Courts,
which records that he was "martyred"
in 1885. The great judge was convicted
of high treason, and so coolly did he
meet his fate that he removed his beard
from the block, saying that that, at any
rate, had done no harm.

Real Lesson Of
the Empty Tomb
in Paul's w ords

The Easter thought Is thus phrased
by st. Paul: IF We then be risen with
Christ. seek those things which are
above. Set your affections on things
above, not on things on the earth.
Mortlfy therefore your members which
are upon the earth; fornication, IN
cleanness. inordinate affection. evil
concupiscence, and covetousness, which
is ldolatry: for which things sake the
wrath OF God cometh In the children
of dsobedience: In the which We also
walked some time, when We lived In
them Men have Thought and
preached so much about the empty
tomb. In their effort TO prove fhe resur.
rectIon as to have entirely overlooked
the question asked by the angel Of the
resurrection. "Why seek We the living
among the dead?" That has been what
many have been doing for twenty cen
turtles. and are still doing. There were
those wlom the empty tomb did not
convince-the women thought the body
had been stolen II Is indeed written
of one OF the disciples that. when he
entered the tomb. "he saw and be-
lieved."
or st. Peter II Is written: Then
arose Peter. and ran into the sepul-
cher; and STOPPING down, he beheld
the linen clothes laid by themselves,
and departed, wondering In himself al
that which was come to pass"-plain-
ly he was not convinced. but bewil-
dered What did convince His dis
ciples was communion with Him, a
renewal of the old association and
fellowship, the happy Consciousness
Of His presence which they knew
would be al abiding one, and the ten.
der words that He spoke to them.
Then 1t was that they knew He was
alive. alive forevermore. and realized
that they were called to follow iv-
ing and not dead Leader. They saw
that "in Him was life; and the light
was the life OF men," Also they
realized-and they never lost their
grip on the thought-thai death and
the grave were but the gate opening
on larger. finer. happier and nobler
life.
Because | live. We shall live ALSO

such was the assurance given by
Christ to His disciples OH tile eve Of
His departure from Them. II was the
assurance Of n life unbroken by death.
OF continued and uninterrupted fellow
ship with Himself. Argument on the
subject is, and ever has been. for the
most part futile. The most that has
eyer been proved was thnt there was
moral probability of immortality
and that Is much. But for the Chris
tan. Easter Is the festival OF the life
eternal. and he must feel that the
assurance of his Mnster-"Becanse
live. We shall live also"-is ms truly
for him as for those to whom the
words were first spoken. Yet compar-
atiyely few Christians, It Is feared,
give much thought to the subject
perhaps because they shrink from the
contemplation OF death And that Is
to be regretted. There are some doc
trines held and preached by the
time will be, abandoned, but the doc
trine OF immortality Is not one Of
them On the contrary, II should be
more and more stressed. for II may
be. as 1t was In the first days of
Christianity, great power In human
life. II will be remembered that ST.
Paul was sure TINT there was laid up
for him "a crown OF righteousness
II might be expected that he would
have said "a crown OF life, But "a
crown OF Righteousness" Is q crown Of
life, for righteousness is itself life.
SO wea privileged te enter Into the
Joy of another Easter, and once more
to think Of II as the foretaste OF an
immortality which Is In truth--or may
be-a present possession Arnold puts
It we'll, though perhaps somewhat Sc
verely:
No. no.. the energy OF life may be
Kept on after the grave, but not begun;
And he who tagged not In the earthly
strife,
From strength to strength advancing
only he.
His soul well-knit, and all his battles
won,
Mounts, and that hardly. to eternal life
