Look at the picture, and you will see one. It is very easy to make ut of the ordinary marshmallows you bny at the candy store. Place a few of the candies in the even for a little while to make them soft, and then you can mold them into @he head, ears and body of the Easter rabbit. The egg in the picture is a large duck egg. Boil it until it is hard and then with a penknife cut it into even halves, taking the contents care- fully out. Place the marshmallow rab- bit inside on a bed of blue cotton and tie the outside of the egg together witb a band of pretty ribbon. It is a gift appropriate for any good friend. Especially to a Centenarian. The custom in vogue among young people and some also not so young of eating on Easter Sunday an egg for each year of their age is often burden- some to the stomach and would be fostly to the pocket this year. Christ Is Risen, ‘The Lord is risen! And heaven and earth In lowly condescension bends The Lord is risen! In his new birth The weary world to heaven ascends. The Lord is risen! Blot from your heart Old memories of sin and wrong. The Lord is risen! Take now your part In his eternal Easter song. —Charles PR. Burke. EASTER SUPERSTITIONS. Quaint Olc Ideas to Which Our Girls Yet Cling. We wouldn’t admit it. of course, but we are all of us more or less supersti- tious. We double up over the sidewalk to pry a pin out of a crack “just for fun.” For the same reason we refuse to be the first to pass in front of a fu- | neral procession. to let any one pass between us and the friend with whom we would not quarrel, to let the baby jook at himself in the mirror, walk un der a tadder or sleep in number thir- teen nor for anytbing in the whole, | wide world would we accept a watch from a fiancee nor a hatpin nor a pen- knife nor anything sharp or pointed from a friend. Just so with the Easter girl. She isn’t the least bit superstitious, but she wore a yellow garter last year. don- ned at Easter. and Jack did propose to ber, so, just for fun, although, “of course, there's nothing in it,” she’s go- ing to try again—for luck this time. since Jack is landed Tell it not in Gath. but nearly all girls hold to this superstition. and the little rime which explains it is writ in nearly every one of their hearts: A yellow garter. That's for luck, For luck and a lover true, The yellow band ‘Will sure command Luck anda sweetheart too. And if you will peep beneath the hats of the pretty. laughing girls you'll meet on your way to church on Easter fmorning you will find that several out of each dozen or so had a bit of blue ribbon tucked in her hair. Al) school- girls remember the Scotch rime: A blue snook in the hair, Maiden fair, maiden fair, On Easter you must wear, Maiden fair, maiden fair. And then you'll find the way To a glorious Easter day, For a lover’ll come to woo you, true, I say. —Cora Moore in New York Mail.
