I trust that a time will come soon when county hospitals will proâ€" vide proper working places for docâ€" | tors and skilled care at low prices for patients; but even without them | it is usually possible for parents to | take their children to a competent | eye doctor for glasses, to a nose and ‘throat specialist for defects of hearâ€" ‘ing and breathing, to a surgeon for deformities, to a family doctor for advice as to food, and to a dentist for the filling of teeth. This sounds rather formidable, but of course onei child is not likely to be in need of all these cures. _ _It is the part of the physicians in the parentâ€"teacher organization to examine at fair prices and with utâ€" most care the children who are brought to them, and, furthermore, to watch the children of the communâ€" ity in school and at play and to reâ€" commend to mothers, fathers and teachers such medical examinations and treatment as suggest themselves to their trained eyes and intelliâ€"‘ gences.

Then as they wandered down, the little wooded path she asked:) "Why did you make this lace for your | mother‘s Easter?" | At last a lady came who wanted to buy the strip. That time Richard‘s mother did not smile. Instead she pointed to her doilies and her tidies. But the lady shook her head. Richard whispered, "Oh, let her have it, moâ€" ther! T‘ll make another, a better one, this Easter Day!" J ;; Richard lived on an island, and, |like most little boys and girls, he || lived with his mother and father. But the house in which he lived was not | the least little bit like your house or .’Iike mine. _ It was built on rough | rocks, and in its tower was a huge |lampâ€"a lamp that was kept burning |all through the night, is winter as | well as in summer. _ Onâ€" beautiful ;] nights, when the moon and the stars | shoneâ€"there stood the light!

Some day you mayl sail to it. In summer a great many | people go there. It looks so quaint' ‘and comfortable that it is fun to picâ€" ‘nic there. The people watch the | waves. They dash and break on the | rocks, and then sliding back, call to | their fellow waves, "Come, let us try |it again!" as tend the light. Often they knockâ€" ed upon her door to ask whether they could buy some lace. Gladly she sold to them. Gladly she told of wintry evenings passed in reproducing favâ€" orite old designs from her pattern book. She always ended by holding up one strip of lace and saying, "This is what my Richard made for me one Easter Day!" l His mother had bits of lace pinned‘ in the window to show visitors that she cox_lld_ make pretty things as well| Richard watched the people just as the people watched the waves; and as they did not speak to the waves, so he did not speak to the people. In fact, he did not know what words to use. Perhaps the people felt the same way. Until their cure is well under way it will be better not to give them much book work.

And Richard cried, "My lady, then, did not forget! She‘s made my lilies bloom! She must have made these voices sing! Here on the rocks! O motherâ€"‘tis Easter Day! ‘Tis really, truly, Easter Day!" ‘ About the box that came to Richard his mother did not know. Nor did she know why Richard carried old toâ€" mato cans from out dark corners into the light. When tall green shoots began to sprout, he hid the cans in a secret spot. His mother worked, but while she worked she smiled. Perhaps she, too, had a secret! The lady wrinkled her forehead into tiny lines, then whispered some words to Richard, who clasped his hands. When she stepped into her boat to sail away, she called, "I shall not forget! You wait and see! I shall not forget!" The lady looked at Richard‘s crookâ€" ed stitches.

Joyful sang they all. _ Of course immortality has always been a fact. Jesus brought the fact |into prominence and convinced men , of its reality. He brought life and ‘immortality to light. But Jesus did not reveal to His disciples the nature | of the life after death. It was going | to the heavenly Father; it was being Iiwith God; it was to be in the manâ€" |sions of His Father‘s house, whither He had gone to prepare a place for them. Beyond that He told nothing. Nor do we need to know, and the soâ€" fcallod communications which some: profess to receive from spirits in the other world add nothing to our real knowledge and help us not a whit.) Our hope is in Christ, and that is enough, "Easter!" said a sudden wind, Talking in a tree. "Easter!" sang a listening bird, Looking out to see. * "Easter!" breathed a violet, When the song was sung. "Easter!" called another bird, Window vines among. } "Fear not," the angel said, "ye seek ‘Jesus." He is not here; for he is risen, even as He said." Both Matâ€" thew and Mark report that the angel said to tell His disciples, "He goeth before you into Galilee; there skhall ye see him." _ Matthew adds that Jesus Himself met the women &nd greeted them, and gave them the same message for the disciples. It is difficult to reconcile this with the stories told by Luke and John, acâ€" cording to which Jesus made His first appearance to the disciples in Jerusalem. The explanation of the difficulty must lie in the fact that there were different stories told by these first witnesses of the resurrecâ€" tion, and that the differences were magnified in the traditions of subâ€" sequent years,. What else, indeed, could have been expected, if we recall the amazement, the mingled joy and fear, and the incredulity of some, which maurked that first day and the dawn of the new hope? Is it any wonder that the stories told were inâ€" coherent and fragmentary, or that the facts were pieced together differâ€" ently by those who afterward sought to make out a connected story? The very lack of exact agreement beâ€" comes itself an evidence of the truth of the narrative, for if the early Gospel writers and preachers had been capable of deceit they could have fixed the stories to suit their purpose and could have made them agree with each other. ' Lesson III. Our Risen Lordâ€"Matt. 28: 1â€"10. Golden Text, i ,_ Matt. 28. 6. j "Late on the Sabbath day." The Jewish Sabbath corresponded to our Saturday, and ended at sunset. But: there was a popular way of reckonâ€" ing which made the Sabbath include both the day and the night following, and it is thus that Matthew reckons here. It was in the early morning of the first day of the week that the women came to the tomb. . Mark says "when the Sabbath was past," and Luke "at early dawn." Both ; Mark and Luke say that they brought ; spices to anoint the body of the Lord.! They found to their great surprise the stone that closed the entrance| of the artificial cave or tomb rolled’ away. Matthew says there had been| an earthquake and an angel had rolâ€". led away the stone. To the women the angel appeared as a young man, "sitting on the right side, arrayed in a white robe" (Mark 16: 5). Luke tells of two men "in dazzling apâ€" parel." 1 Early Easter Morning.

I saw the spring come riding In Lincoln green arrayed: Her yellow hair lay down her back All in q gleamjng braid; n Nor have 1 geen tof many A day So gay a cavaleade. I saw the spring come riding, And none might say her nay: So all the birds began to sing A merry roundelay, As minstrels sing in balconies Along the Queen‘s highway. I saw the spring come riding, And oh, her face was sweet! And shinging little raindrops Did gallop at her feet: Then thousand little drops of rain In shining armor neat, oqurs In conflict with unholy powers, We grasp the weapons He has given: The Light, and Truth, and Love of Heaven." I saw the spring come riding, Ere winter yet was done; The pallid little flakes of snow Began to leap and run; For lo, a million grass blades Were fiashing in the sun! \ _ There are two ways of fighting the battle" of life. One is in reliance on 'our own wisdom and strength and |witl! Anevitable and naturally â€" inâ€" [creasing failures and discourageâ€" \ ments. The other is to draw on the infinite resources of God, ant with that supreme trust which is the secâ€" ret of joy perform the task that lies at hand. Easter Day is the witness to that present and living joy and power. It is the radiance of the faith of this day that makes the glory of human life. If our lives are to be more than broken and useless baubles we must lay hold on divine joy and powâ€" er both for our own sakes and for the sake of our great nation of which we are a part. Suffering is not a symbo] of sorrow and weakness. To give himsel{ with abandon to the cause of righteousness, justice and peace is the only freedom of the Christian man. It is joy and power; it is life trinmphant here and now. It is following Jesus, Who, for the joy that was set before Him, endured the cross. "So let it be. In God‘s own might We gird us for the coming fight, And strong in Him whose cause is "Where did you g power?" "Why," s Christ." _ That pwa: The secret of power The spark was lit. Christianity is not looking for fresh arguments but for more Christâ€" ians. For a Christian is its only real proof. Within the heart of a Christâ€" ian dwells a divine spark. It is enâ€" thusiasmâ€"being filled with God; it is the illumination of the soul,. From Him that spark leaps to the soul of another. I remember hearing a Chinese gentleman describe his acâ€" ceptance of Christianity, After beâ€" coming a friend of some missionaries and observing them at work and rest he came to them one day and asked: ‘dom and strength. It is not a series of checks and inhibitions clamped down over your life by which you are forbidden this and prevented from that and generally treated like & slave because toâ€"norrow you may be dead. No, but it is a liberating, directing, enabing power which pos» sesses you, and sper‘= to your soul not of deggh but o? eternal life. It is not the recitation of a creed nor the acceptance of a body of doctrine; it is not reducing life to its minimum of barren existence, as some of our economic reformers who believe that man lives by bread alone would have us do. Christianity is nothing more nor less than a divine life within a aman. And the message of Kaster is the message that Christ is sufficient for all our needs. No prison walls could retain the indomitable spirit of Paul. "Rejoice in the Lord always, and again I will say rejoice." No physical limitation could dishearten him as he found that the grace of Christ was sufficient for him. None of the handicaps comâ€" mon to human existence could daunt him. HMe was a free man and an inâ€" vincible man. "It is no longer I that live, but Christ that liveth in me," "O Mighty Love! Man is one world, and hath another to attend him." This is the day of the life full and abounding; here is the joy of an overflowing heart; here is the emâ€" powering of men by their acceptance of divine strength and freedom. life, and that they might have it more abundantly.â€"St. Fohn, x., 10.
