It Is The Oldest Festival Day Known---The Christian Easter Signifies A New Birth Into Life, Everlasting. Easter is one of the oldest festival days | known. The name is said to have been de- rived from that of the goddess of the heathen Saxons, called Osfara, Osterr, or. Eastre. She was the goddess of the east, the revival of the new day and fresh activity, particularly of the coming of the spring and the revival of nature. . As the Christian Easter signifies a new birth into life everlasting, the analogy between the revival of the natur ' "fe in the spring after the long winter of bligut and the resurrection of the Saviour is quite evident. April was dedicated by the Saxons to this goddess and the name, Oster Monat, is still used by the Germans to denote it. The Latin races of the south of Europe and the Rus- sians have derived the word Easter from the Aramatic word "pesash" (pass over) and Easter is called by the Spanish "pascus," while the [Italians speak of it as "pasque," the French calling it "pasques" and the Russians "paskah." One of the first policies of the carly -Chris- tian "cherch 'way the practice of turning as many as possible of the pagan festivals 0 holy days and giving them a religious sig: ifi- cance. Easter, the spring festival of the pa- gans, the resurrection of the natural life, was therefore seized eagerly upon made a day of rejoicing signifying the resurrection of Christ and tae hope of new spiritual life. In the first days of the religious observance of Easter the.peopié went to the church cloth- ed in special dress and the priests recited humorous poems and told funny stories. . This odd observance was so abused by the people, however, and so much license was taken that a few years later the day was changed into one of silent rejoicing. It was not until A. D 340 that the first real Easter hymn was writ- ten. St. Ambrose was the author of this. y * and * * % * As Easter typifies a new birth it is also easy to trace the old pagan idea that the egg was the beginning of life and understand how it came to be accepted in the Christian mind as the symbol of the life eternal. This idea goes back to the ancient Egyptians, who worshiped the beetle because that insect was thought to have the power of burying itself and rising "again. When its eggs were discovered the symbolism was transferred to them. The first colored eggs were a vivid red, typifying the blood of Christ, and as early as 1589 these eggs were the treasured exchanges among. all classes. In the expense book of Edward the First of England one item was for 450 eggs stained with gold. The Pruids held the egg as a symbol of the sun and believed that it hatched from itself | the earth and other planets. Their priests and | officers proclaimed their official position by wearing an egg encased in gold and suspended around the neck by a' chain. The Syrians be- lieved that the gods from whom they descend- ed were mysteriously hatched from eggs, anu the Chinese go even farther and believe that the world was formed from an egg. From the yolk there stepped forth a human being called Poon-koo-wong, who waved his hand, and the upper half of his late covering, the egg shell, became the heavens, the lower half turning over to form the earth, The Easter bunny is said to have been the bird which at one time drew the chariot of the Goddess of Spring and was turned into a hare. | Every year, however, at the coming of spring the hare remembers, and in commemoration of its' @riginal bird nature lays cggs as an offering to Spring and Youth, which it symbolizes. This may be the reason that on Easter eve German families place a nest full of sugar eggs and real eggs somewhere in the garden that the children may hunt for them on Easter morn- ing. Another connection between Easter and the hare is the latte relation to the moon Easter is really a} holiday and in ancient times the hare was a symbol for the moon 4 2 2 % B and Numerous superstitic legends are con nected with day; and most widespread is that which makes the sun par ticipate in the general rejoicing by dancing in the sky. This superstition traced back to the days of ancient paganism when the peo ple engaged in fantastic dances at the festivals of Osterr. In Scotland, that land of super stition, it is said that the sun turns around the sky three times a wheel and then gives three great leaps through space, and so general is this belief that many people still get up early on Easter morning to see this phenomenon, Many country peo ple still believe in that ancient superstition} that to see a lamb when first looking out oi the window on Easter morning will bring great good luck, especially if its head be turned towards the house. It is also lucky to meet a lamb on Easter day, as that is one form that the devil take. It bad luck not to wear new clothes or at least come one new article of wearing apparel on Easter day, for-- "On Easter see your clothes be new, Or else be sure you will it rue," and the people who do wear new clothes on this Jay are therefore following the old super- stition and thus preventing misfortune.

HOPE IT 1S BECAUSE HE LIVETH ThAT WE SHALL LIVE ALSO. Our Lord's First Message After He Left The Tomb Was One Of Love And Mercy-- Should Have All Serve Him Faithfully. The resurrection of Jesus is the central fact of Christianity. If Christ be not raised our faith is vain. "Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished. It is because he liveth that we shall live also. Not the dead Christ, but Christ the risen and glorified; he who saith. "I am he that liveth, and was dead; and behold I am alive forever more," is the mediator between God and Yan, is the hope of our souls and the hope of the world. But it was not with this lofty hope that the faithful women of the Gospel, on the first Easter drew near the sepulchre of our Lord Theirs was a sense of utter desolation and bereavement. They had "trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel" But now all their trust was gone, all their hopes are shattered. all the future is dark- ness. Forgotten are all the precious promises. Christ, the Lord, is dead. He whom they had loved and worshipped, who had dwelt with them, who had hcaled their sick and raised their dead, is himself dead. They stood be- side his cross and had seen him laid in the dark sepulchre; and, now, coming early in the morning, ere it is yet day, in their crushing sorrow and passionate affection, they seek the hillside tomb with balm and myrrh and sweet- est spices, that they may perform the last sad offices to the crucified body of him they had leved so long and so weil But, lo! the ob- ject of their search is gone, and at the head and at the foot of the stony couch on which the body of Jesus lay, two shining ones keep watch and ward above the consecrated spot. As in the inner temple, above the Mercy Seat, the cherubim with outstretched wings? did biood. so now above the place which saw this more wondrous exhibition of the Godhead the rapt seraphim. With tender com- pas .a they seek to comfort. the grief-strik- en women with the tidings of tife resurrection of Jesus--a gladder evangel than even that of his birth. But not even assuage the sorr the words of an angel can w of Mary of Magdala, who had loved most because she was most. for- given, at her sad bereavement. As she turns away, brooding in the bitterness of her soul over the thought, "they have taken away my Lord, and I know not where they have laid him," lo, Jesus mcets her, though she knows him not, perhaps because her eyes were dim- med with streaming tears. How often in their hours of bitterest anguish does Jesus appear to his tried and tempted followers; and how often do they cling to their sorrow and refuse to lift their eyes to their divine deliverer. As Jesus, moved with love and pity, in sympathiz ing tones addresses the mourning one, strange that she does not recognize that voice upon whose slightest word she had so often hung, and that familiar face which had so lately looked unuttera love from the cross. But no* long does Jesus leave her in despair. What thrilling power is in his word as he utters the familiar salutation, "Mary," and what' ecstasy of recognition as she exclaims, "Rabboni, Master, Lord." Thus it is that Jesus ever meets the sorrowing soul that in sincerity is seeking him. Oh, that each heart might hear the Saviour's gracious "Hail" Oh, that each ®oul might respond with eager re- cognition, "Rabboni, Master," or with Thomas, when his unbelief gave way before the tender evidence of his Saviour's love, "My Lord and my God." True to his divine character, our Lord's first message is one of love and mercy, "Go, tell my brethren." Blessed words. He is not as hamed to call them brethren. How reassuring to their hearts, trembling between hope and fear, stricken with grief and remorse, to feel that their betrayed, denied, forsaken, crucified, but risen Lurd, cherishes towards them f implacable anger, but the yearn- of an intense and undying affection, of that many waters cannot quench nor sorrow drown : ¢ on these augnst and glorious s we obey the angel's admonition to come and see the place where the Lord lay, as we dwell in thought upon his life and death and resurrection, do they as profoundly affect us as they ought?

In the Madonna pictures of the old masters are frequently three lilies on one stem, typify- ing either the Trinity or 'the annunciation, conception and birth of our Saviour. A pot of lilies over doors or windows symbolizes the Virgin, in ecclesiastical art and architic- ture. St. Joseph's staff that budded, brought forth lilies, and he is thus represented by the early masters. In some parts of England, in country vil- lages, the "lily of the valley" is called the "Ladder of Heaven," and in floral language of Europe it is emblematic of the return of happiness, doubtless in allusion to the season of the year--the Spring-time--when it opens its blossoms. The daffcdil was once called the "Lent Lily" and the "Lent Rose," coming as it does during the solemn penitefffial period, the herald of joy and hope. There is a superstition current among the rustic English people that it is very unlucky to bring home the first daffodil of the season. According to tradition, the brier rose was born of drops of blood that fell from our Saviour's brow, pierced by the crown of thorn... The "passion flower," with its won- derful formation, is emblematic of the cruci- fixion and is the symbol of faith. A tale of love 'and grief is bound up in the legend of the hyacinth.
