any andes "ata acneni t Brown Hen His Partner LL the children bad a hoard of eggs hidden away for Easter— all but Billy. Billy was so small and fat that he could mot climb on the haymows to fina | the nests. Sue, Mary and Teddy were bigger, and the contest with them went gayly on. Easter morning their hoards would be brought forth from their hid- ng places, and the one who had the most eggs would be the best fellow. Mother would give them some bits | of bright calico and pieces of onion peel. The eggs would be wrapped in these and boiled, and when taken out | of the water the onion ones would | have beautiful yellow shells and the ones wrapped in calico would have dainty flowers and patterns traced on | them. Perhaps they might have some of those gorgeous purple and crimson dyes for certain high class eggs Billy would probably have some giv- en to him, but they would not be his own hoard, und the heart of Billy was | heavy within him. He stood on the barn floor, dejected- ly shelling the kernels off an ear of | corn that had been dropped, and he | could hear the shouts of the other chil- dren away off on the long mow wings. Easter was very near—only a few | days—and then— “Cluck, ecluck!" Billy looked around and saw a brown hen squeezing out through a hole in the flooring. She walked straight up to Billy and began picking up the ker- nels he had dropped. “What you been doin’ under ve floor, ol” Brown Hen?” “Cluck, cluck!” said the brown hen, which meant, “Look for yourself.” Billy looked. Away under the dark floor he could see a nest, and he count- ed—“‘two—five—free—eleventy.” Billy could not tell just how many for his mathematical education was shaky. “Is they yours?” whispered Billy. “Cluck, cluck!” said the brown hen. “Don’t tell the rest, and we'll go shares on this hoard. and I'll take care of them for us.” Then she crawled back under the Derrenentnenenenenenenenenenenenenenenenen enone) The Easter of a Century Ago. It is not altogether the effect of dis- tance that makes us suppose there was more of the Easter spirit in the ob- servance of this sacred festival of spring a century ago. The stately ladies and gentlemen who attended the service at old St. Paul’s came from mearby homes which had their own lawns and gardens just turning green. { Their carriages passed under trees , whose buds were swelling with the vernal impulse, and one may faney that the children who flocked through the church doors carried in their fists the first tulips from the gardens and | the first stray dandelions from the wayside. The Easter season in that Dvergrown village. the Gotham of a century ago. had its own allegory of the resurrection of nature to point the way back to the profounder event of which it was the celebration. It is only in the bluer sky, the kindlier air and in the self revelations of such Vagrant plots of green as that which still surrounds St. Paul’s that the ehurchgoer of our time has more than the evidence of his almanac that it is the resurrection and not the birth of the Man of Galilee which he commem- erates. The northward march of pop- ulation has raised other and more im- posing edifices of worship than the ancient pile at Broadway and Fulton street, but none is so rich in memories or has so good a warrant to be the center of a holiday.—New York Sun. An Easter Girl, Of the Egglinger family. To Color White Eggs, ‘The best preparations for staining the white shells of the eggs are logwood ‘and Pernambuco wood steeped in boil- fmg water. These give very pretty shades separately and mixed together give a very pretty shade of violet. Eggs For the Invalid. Toast a piece of bread nice and brown, beat up an egg very lightly in ‘a bow!, then boil one and a half cups of milk, sweeten and while bot pour on ‘the egg and add the toast cut into smal! pieces. Any- | way, there would be a brave showing. | EERE, In Easter Eggs , boards, and Billy ran in the house feel- (ing that he also had a secret. Not a word did Billy lisp. On Easter ascii he, too, would bring forth hix hoard, but he would leave some for | the brown hen—oh. of course—because they were partners. Easter came, and the older children | went after their hidden eggs. Billy BILLY GAVE ONE RAPTUROUS LOOK. | followed in glee. How he would sur- | prise them! His fat legs twinkled through the barnyard fence and up to | the great door. He heard the brown phew clucking. She must be waiting to divide. He went in, but she was not \in sight. He ducked his head down to ‘the hole and peeped. She was not on | the nest, and only a few broken shells ‘lay about. Tears welled up into Billy’s blue jeyes. The brown hen had not dealt fairly. Sobbing and stumbling. he | went out the stable door and ran plump into her. | She was not alone. Chirping and peeping all around her was a troop of | yellow fuzzy balls. Billy took one rap- | turous look and then fled to Sister ! Mary, who was crawling from under a ‘straw stack with her treasure. “Look, Mary. look what me an’ the jbrown hen done!” he called. “She's ‘been takin’ care of our eggs, an’ they’ve |all come chickens!” Fun With Easter Eggs. | Here are four Easter eggs. Would you like to make some like them? It lis very easy. Get four eggs and “blow” them. All you have to do is to make a small hole at each end of the egg with a large pin, and then ‘by putting one end to your mouth and hold- ing the egg light- iy you can easily blow out the inside. To make the Chinaman a brownish colored egg is the best. His hat is made simply by taking a piece of stiff paper and cutting out a circle, with an inner circle fitting the top of his head. His mustache and pig- tail are made of darning cotton and glued on. The face may be done with black paint or ink. The “old la- dy’s” faee may be painted or done with ink and her bonnet made of white tissue paper glued to the back of her head, leaving the ruffle to stand out around her face. The “dude” is O simply outlined with ink, paint- 1 ing his cheeks pink. By taking KZ a slip of card- board and gluing \aeke Rohe the ends together ‘the end of the egg may be slipped into this and glued, thus making his col- lar. A narrow bit of ribbon will do for the necktie. The “clown’s” face is done in ink, with the spots in red paint, used thickly. His cap can be made of white paper and also his ruffled ; collar. The eggs if glued on to stiff cards will stand, or a ribbon may be tied through the two holes at each end of the egg and the eggs hung up. If one prefers it is very pretty to paint little flowers on the eggs. It is easy to make these Easter eggs, and children will find it great fun if they try it. Two of a Kind. There was an author who wrote an Easter story. The story was accepted for publication by a magazine. Easter was approaching, but not the check in payment for the story. Finally the author wrote to the editor: “Can't you hurry that check along | in time for my wife's Easter hat?’ “I can’t.” replied the editor. “I also am a married man.” Initials on Easter Eggs. | It is very easy to apply initials and ‘monograms on Easter eggs by using a before they are treated w their color ‘path. There are any number of prep- jarations to be bought at the drug stores which make very pretty effects.* |Hand Kasper we fe Circumstances have combined to make us late in act ing our complete stock for your inspection but we will endeavor to please you and make it profitable for you to et company of Ely: a manta William ; a (of Grand Rapids, and filed in my Dillion P. ae chief forester, and} office, praying for License to Sell In- ion ierney, ass‘stant, Ue ee toxicating Liquors for the term com- with ten rangers, were in attendance.'mencing on April Ist, 1912, and ter-| The state forestry department was fh Sigeardn on March 3ist, 1913, by | nipteeanll li e following Person and at the fol- ae ite pee poeae William T.

Chief Forester Cox said that the objects of fire prevention were the elimination of disastrous forest fires, Prevention of destruction of standing timber; making it possible for the young growth to live and develop in- to trees of merchantable size. He Stated the meeting would result in bringing the lumberman in clossr touch with the forestry board and to have a better understanding and con prehension of the laws; also the en- gendering of a good spirit for co operation in carrying out the fire Prevention work. He said the inter- est shown by the majority of the more influential lumbermen, would have a good influence on the smaller concerns operating in the woods. He expects a fuller compliance with the law will result from the timber interests and the representatives of | the law getting together.
