AN EASTER OF JOY AND SORROW
Easter day will dawn to-morrow on a world half
joyous, half sorrowful. To the Christian peoples
who are enjoying peace and to the Christian peoples
who are plunged in war the occasion will have the
same profound meaning and the same wonderful
promise, but it will be observed very differently by
the one than by the other.
In lands like ours, at £>eace with all the world,
Easter will be a day of rejoicing. The church bells
will have a merry sound, and the church music will
inspire cheerful thoughts. The streets will be gay
with Easter paraders: the fdshion show will be
pleasing to the eyes and will lighten the spirits.
The many colored Easter eggs and the variously
formed Easter candies will afford the gay children
their great annual enjoyment All nature will
rejoice.
There are other lands where Easter will not seem
at all like that. In war-wrecked Christian coun
tries across the sea. where devastation luys come
despite the resurrection of the Prince of Peace, the
day will be a very solemn one.—a very sad one.
The promise of victory over the grave will carry
the thoughts of wives and mothers to their loved
ones who may be already at the end of their earthly
lives, or who may fall during the future progress
of the war. Prayers that on Easter day go up from
those women, and from the men who are facing
death at the front, will be very earnest petitions.
Human beings are so constituted that earnestness
is revealed in them principally in times of stress
and distress.
Easter this year may have a somewhat deeper
significance for Christian Europeans than it will
have for Americans. Perhaps in the belligerent
countries religions beliefs will signify more to
actual war sufferers on resurrection day than they
wj|l to complacent, thriving, happy citizens of this
peaceful republic. Yet Easter day will have the
same fundamental meaning wherever Christianity
has spread. No matter if it is observed with joy
by the fortunate or with sorrow by the unfortu
nate, it will commemor'ate that one marvelous hap
pening of gospel record without which, according
to St. Paul, Christian faith would be vain.
CHANCE TO BE A CLERGYMAN'S WIFE
W hen a man of thirty, who is described by no less
of an authority than the Episcopal Bishop of On
tario "as a manly man, in good health, very active,
full of pluck and energy, and without any ties," is
driven to the expedient of seeking a wife through
the medium of the newspapers, the average well
balanced person is apt to pause and wonder why
this apparently altogether desirable candidate for
connubial felicity has been unable through his own
efforts to find a suitable life companion.
"When it is further revealed that he is a clergy
man in apparently excellent standing in his church,
and a graduate of Oxford University, and that the

ffARRISBURG STAR-INDEPENDENT, SATURDAY EVENING, APRIL 3., 1915.
Princess Predericka of Brunswick and Lunenburg
has joined with the good bishop in declaring him
to be an ideal husband for any "well-bred, cultured
woman who is healthy, cheerful and preferably not
over thirty years of age," the wonder grows as to
why such a perfectly desirable "catch" could so
long have been overlooked by the designing
mammas with eligible daughters who live in Barrie,
Ontario, the home of the lonely rector.
There must be some very good reason for .the
singleness of this Canadian clergyman—his name
is not revealed in the newspaper accounts, though
his address is given as "Post Office box 701, Barrie,
Ontario."
Can it be possible that the bachelors of Barrie
so far outnumber the unmarried females that there
is no chance for a perfectly good minister to become
a husband in his own home town f
I'Xrhaps the salaries they pay to clergymen in
Barrie, —goodness knows they are far below what
they ought to be in other places,—are so meager
that the idea of becoming a minister's wife there
holds out the prospect of so much drudgery that
the Barrie mammas are not enthusiastic about sac-,
rificing their daughters to anything of the kind.
Or. perhaps, the Barrie clergyman is one of those
hopelessjy bashful souls who hasn't got the nerve
to propose to a girl; though that seems hardly
likely to be true of a man who welcomes the oppor
tunity of publishing his matrimonial ambitions on
the front page of the New York newspapers.
Whatever is the reason this young clergyman lias
failed thus far to get a wife to bring cheer into his
life, we hope, if he is all the good bishop says he is,
that the loneliness of his bachelorhood may not be
of much longer duration. Perhaps some Ilarrisburg
girl who is "cultured, cheerful and not over thirty"
may see herein an opportunity.
EASTER PARCEL POST BUSINESS
It is not too much to presume that Uncle Sam's
parcel post service will have a lot to do with this
year's observance of Easter. The general public
lias been usiug the parcel post more extensively
with each succeeding year, and has now discovered
apparently that the mails can be used very con
veniently in the Easter celebration.
The parcel post business in this city just now is
reported to be reaching large proportions. It was
even found necessary yesterday that the holiday
be curtailed live hours in order to accommodate
senders of Easter packages.
The parcels, it may be readily surmised, contain
candies of the forms and flavors peculiar to the
Easter season. The contents may vary, but they
are no doubt principally sweets. With Easter are
associated inseparably chocolate bunnies aud eggs
and other candies, and these have now found in the
parcel post a very suitable means of transportation.
When souvenir postcards were at the height of,
their popularity these missives crowded the mails
at Easter time, conveying best wishes to and from
separated friends and relatives. Candies, too, were
sent through the mails but not to any overwhelm
ing extent, because oi' the rather high rates of post
age under the old plan before the parcel post. The
cost of carriage would not infrequently reach half
the value of the candies.
Now. although the postcards still are plentiful,
they do not constitute all of the Easter mail. The
parcels make up a large part. The government's
low priced carrying service has apparently encour
aged the sending of Easter candies through the
mail. Surely every one will agree that such en
couragement is titting and proper, for who, espe
cially among the kiddies, would not prefer candies
to postcards?
It is rather hard on Uncle Sam's employes that
they must anticipate a rush prior to Easter as well
as before Christmas, although the mail, of course,
is not nearly so heavy at this season as at the Yule
tide.
The prospects late this afternoon were for a white
Easter.
Even if you haven't got your wife's Easter bonnet paid
for you at least have it bought by now.
Now that the Johnson-Willard mill has been postponed
for one day the dead game sports assembled in Havana
will have a chance to attend Easter services.
The State Highway Department got orders to begin
repairing the roads and the nest day it snowed.
Kind old mother ' . n got busy and kept th<? price of eggs
down to a reasonable level for the Easter bunny.

Ton* Up the Stomach With Hood's
Sarsaparilla *
When you have dyspepsia your life
is miserable. You imve a bad taste
in your mouth, n tenderness at the pit
of your stomach, a feeling of'puffy
fullness, headache, heartburn, and some
times nausea.
Dyspepsia is difficult digestion—■
that is what'the word means—and the
only way to get ri|l of it is to give
vigor and tone to the stomach and the
whole digestive system. Hood's Sar
saparllla, sold by all druggists, is the
one medicine which acts on the stomach
through the blood and also directly. Its
beneficial effects are felt at once. Im
provement begins immediately.
Hood's Sarsaparilla purifies the
blood, makes the rich red blood that
is needed for perfect aud
builds up the whole system. No other
mediciue can take its place.—Adv.

The Origin of the Easter Bonnet
A long long time ago, iu the forest
of Aavon, all the rabbits for miles
around assembled under the Great Oak
on Easter Even to discuss their plans
for the coming of the great annual fes
tival. All the mother and father rab
bits with their families gathered
around and many were the plans made
and suggestions offered. They decided
that the human children should have
more occasion than ever to eujoy them
selves. They decided that the uests
should be more numerous acd the eggs
more brightly than ever be
fore. Now in this great gathering were
many beaux and belles who were given
the task of distributing the eggs, and
great was the rivalry among them, for
it was considered an honor to have
the greatest ninnber of nests to one's
credit. The eggs were all brought to
the Great Oak and a list of the places
named where the nests were to be con
cealed.

Billy and Bunny Rabbit
For many months previous to this
occasion Miss !\achael Rabbit hud been
conceded to be the most popular of all
the fair young lady rabbits of Aavon
Forest. Her two most favored suitors
were Billy and Bunny Rabbit, cousins,
who were enamoured of the beautiful
Rachael and frightfully jealous of each
other. Mow it so happened, that when
the ehairman of the assemblage offered
for a prize a large round head of cab
bage both Billy and Bunny conceived
a brilliant idea of how to strengthen
the hold of the fair Rachael on the
title of the belle of the f»rest, and also
win a firmer stand in the affection of
the idol of his heart. The great pity is
that both Billy and Bunuv thought of
identically the same idea. And it was
that he should gather all the eggs he
could, take them to Rachael's home and
secretly help to distribute them.
Although each conceived this brilliant
idea at the same time Billy was the
first to begin its execution.
• • *
Rachael Babbit a Diplomat
He filled all his pockets and then his
cap and scampered off to Rachael's
home. She received him with a de
lighted cry when she saw the number
of beautifully colored eggs that he had
brought and glowed with enthusiasm
when he declared he meant to help her
win the prize. But alas —the course of
true love never did run smooth, for at
this moment in rushed Bunny Babbit
with as many eggs and equal enthusi
asm. The fair Rachael received him
with much warmth which so peeved the
ardent Billy that he rushed at Bunny
and in words stern an 1 harsh and bade
him depart and take his collection of
eggs with him. Now Rachael was a
diplomat and knowing that if she could
make peaee between her lovers that
She would have twice the number of
ggs and even a greater chance to win
the prize.
♦ • *
Peace-maker Suffers
But the angry cousins were not so
easily subdued, their voices rose to
shouts, blows were exchanged and the
lovely Bachael was in the throes of dis
pair. As a climax to the fight they be
gan hurling the Easter eggs at each
other which so shocked the gentle Ra
chael that she rushed between them
begging them to stop. But alas —the
poor peace-maker! She received blows
intended for each other and fell faint
ing to the floor in the midst of all the
pretty broken Easter eggs. Billy and
Bunny were so ashamed that after re
viving her and begging forgiveness,
which was freely given, they went
sadly to their homes leaving poor
Rachael holding her wounded head.
Bandages on Her Head
In the morning she was much dis
tressed to find her right eye swollen
shut and her beautiful left ear sadly
ont of proportion. Many soothing lo
tions were applied but to no avail. The
time came for the Easter parade and
poor Bachael felt worse than ever, but
as it was absolutely necessary for
every rabbit to be in line shp had to
appear with her head swathed in ban
dages. Her mother had done hef best
to give her an artistic effect. The
clean white linen wae brought down
gracefully over the swollen eye and
wound firmly around the wounded ear,
ending in a chick little bow.
Behold, the Easter Bonnet!
When Rachael appeared she was re
ceived with profound admiration. No
lady rabbit ever had worn a head dress
before and here was the lovely Rachaei,
the acknowledged belle, setting the
style which was deitined to be followed
by every lady of the civilized and un
civiliied world.
"A bit daring," thought the female
of the species.
"A shame to hide her lovely eye and
charming oar," thought the descerning
male.
The next d|iy Raehael, —still suffer
ing and still swathed in bandages,—
was astounded to see all the other laly
rabbits' with their heads wrapped in
every color aud every style imaginable.
So it eame to pass—the origin of the
Easter bonnet.

AND THE STONE WAS ROLLED AWAY
MABEL CRONISE JONES
Bearing myrrh and precious spices, drenched by tears fast-dropping
o'er them,
Hastened to the flunb the Marys,—to the tomb sealed with a stone;
Huge and grim, how could they move it? In their.thoughts it loomed
before them,
Cold, unfeeling, harsh, unyielding, barring them from Christ their
own. , *
Thus lamenting, grieving, weeping, for the world-loss deep, eternal,
Asking who so able, who so willing as to ope the tomb that day,
Came they to the spot made holy by the sacrifice supernal,
Lo! their anxious thought was needless for the stone was rolled
away!
Ye with bowed beads drooping earthward who have wed yourselves
to sorrow.
Standing by Love's grave bewfiiling, lift your face and raise your •
eyes!
Now no stone the grave is sealing. Burgeons from its depths Hope's
morrow,
Compensating grief and anguish—Life is God,4t never dies.
