I w "IS
I HE Resurrection, tho greatest
object lesson of tho ages, la the
pivot on which the whole world
Is turning from darkness to
light. No matter what belief
anyono may have, his life has been af
fected In some way by tho accounts
given by Matthew, Mark, Luke and
John of the Crucifixion; tho placing In
the tomb of the body of Jesus and hit)
appearance after a period of seeming
death. Tho clear belief of tho dis
clpleB, their teachings and reported
healings; even tho contentions, strife
and darkness, which lasted for a time,
and then the steady advance of the
light of Christianity down the centur
rles, has led to study and thought and
achievements which havo advanced
the civilization of the world. Jesus'
resurrection Is also our resurrection
as it was tho resurrection of the dlB
ciples, who, after his appearing, know
the things which before they had ta
ken on faith. The world's resurrec
tion is going on. Christianity, with
tho resurrection as its most vital point,
has been the motive power that has
Bwayed empires.
Its study has been the means of ad
vancing the education of tho world.
Thoughts inspired by it are expressed
in art, music, literature; and thoughts
inspired by it have opened men's
minds to inventions that have revolu
tionized mortal life. The world's resur
rection is going on! It has opened
tho darkest continents to commerce;
has been the cause of the discovery of
new countries; and is lifting the whole
WUWU IU U. UlgliUl UUUU1DIUUUI11& auu
appreciation of life from a material
senao to tho highest spiritual sense.
Each year with the recurrence of
Easter men are outgrowing the grave
more and more and are understanding
more fully the great truth embodied
In Christ's promise that "Whosoover
Ilveth and belleveth in me shall never
die." Jesus had challenged the mortal
claim of death three times beforo he
proved conclusively the spiritual su
premacy of life by his resurrection
from what seemed to bo death. First,
at tho gates of the city of Nain, when
tho sou of a widow was being carried
out on a bier, ho said to him: "Young

HOLY WOMEN AT THE TOMB.
man, I say unto thee, arise;" and ho
kvhom they thought was dead "sat up,
Imd began to speak."
Then when "all were weeping and
bewailing" over tho death of the
Iwelve-year-old daughter of Jairus, a
hiler of tho synagogue, Jesus said unto
E&em, " 'Weep not; for sho is not dead,
hut sleepeth.' and they laughed him
lo scorn." But he took her by tho
hand; told her to arise; and "she rosq
hp immediately."
Finally, ho called Lazarus from tho
lomb four days after ho had been laid
Lway there as dead. LazaruB and his
listers, Martha and Mary, were very
iear friends of Jesus. Ho often vis
ited at their little homo to rest after
lis teachings in the temple and other
Maces. Mary especially was dearly bo-
tved by him. Sho had "sat at Jesus'
et, and heard his words;" and It
loems that oven Jesus himself thought
mat sho understood the full meaning
If his teachings. So when Lazarus
las sick hlB sisters sent word to
Iisus, saying, "Lord, behold, ho whom,
ou lovest is sick." But when Jesus,
sard this "ho abodo two days still in:
lo samo place where ho was." Then'.
said to bis disciples, "Our friend
izarus sleepeth; but I go that I may.
ako him out of sleep." Then said
Is disciples, "Lord, If ho sleepeth ho

tlved at Lazarus' Homo and Mary met
him, "she foil down at his feet, saying'
unto him, 'Lord, If thou hadst been
here, my brother had not died.' "
When Jesus thoreforo saw her weep
ing, nnd tho Jews also weeping which
camo with her, ho groaned In spirit
and was troubled, and said, 'Whsre
havo yo laid him?' They said unto
him, 'Lord, come and see.'
"Jcsub wept."
He had thought that Mary surely
would understand what ho meant
when ho said that "Lazarus sleepeth."
That sho would understand that Laza
rus was not dead; that death had no
power over him. Ho wept because he
caw that even Mary did not yet under-'
stand the full meaning of his teach-;
Ings.
As the stono was rolled away from
the sepulcher, so, by Jesus' resurrec
tion, the stone which had kept out
"HE IS NOT HERE."
hope, faith and knowledgo of the Eter
nal Life is rolled away from the
hearts of men.
Brighter and brighter the light of
love is shining as man becomes more
and more at one with God.
As the "resurrection" of man goes
on the truth of Paul's statement that
"in him we live and move, and havo
our being" becomes clearer. Men Boar
in aeroplanes to reach the sky and
build skyscrapers hundreds of feat
above tho street, but they do not now
attempt to thus reach heaven or to see
tho mysteries of God. Tho old ma
teriality of Babylon is fast disappear
ing and we are knowing more and
more that we must reach God, tho Su
preme Being, spiritually and not with
towers that pierce tho sky. Paul,
who saw tho groat light and knew the
meaning of his love, said that "Unto
them that look for him shall ho ap
pear the second time without sin unto
solvation."
God Love 13 ever present In the
street, In tho office, In the homes of
rich and poor, in the churches, in the
markets. Wo havo but to turn our
heads and hearts and look and we
shall see and feel his presence and
know the full meaning of Jesus' resur
rection as the disciples did at that
happy breakfast on the shores of the
lako In the clear, bright light of tho
morning after ho had risen from seem
ing death; as they did on tho road to '
Eramaus; and when In their midst ho j
dispelled tho doubts of even Thomas, !
who needed mntfirinl nRHiimnno Hint i
Jesus' body was not dead.
Thus tho highest spiritual under
standing brings tho real resurrectioa
undying, forever having dominion over
death and tho grave into eternal free
dom. As Jesus said to the thief who was
crucified with him, when ho showed
by his words that he believed In him,
"Today shalt thou bo with me In Para
dise," so every one can be with the
risen Lord In Paradise by receiving
him into their hearts; by believing In
him; and by knowing in the fullest
sense that "we are tho sons of God,
and aro therefore hl3 Imago and llkcv j
ness. wiien wo Know that we aro thd

but to turn to Christ, who 13 always
with us, to recelvo his fullest bless
ings. "For In hlra we live, and move,
and havo our being."
CUTTING THE COST OF LIVING.
Use common senso in the kitchen
and you will often not only bo able
to reduce tho cost of living, but also
to conserve your health. Many peo
ple aro dissatisfied unless the table
groans under a dozen varieties of
food. This is unnecessary. A few
well-cooked foods aro best. Mixtures
frequently cannot bo properly
handled by the digestive fluids and
the variety becomes a burden rather
than a help.
See that what you eat is properly
cooked and eat it slowly. Much of
the food wo take into our bodies is
not assimilated, either because it is
eaten too rapidly or has not been
properly cooked. Remember also
that it is false economy to purchase
food of such poor quality that it has
to bo thrown away. Another false
economy is the cooking of food so
poorly that it Is not appetizing. Such
material usually ends in tho garbage
pall.
Often also, much money is spent
in buying specially prepared foods
when tho raw material might have
been purchased at one-quarter of
the price. The wholo question of the
quality and quantity of food for tho
table is largely a matter of common
sense. Without the exercise of Judg
ment, extravagance and sickness may
result. 'Where common sense Is used
wo may oxpect health and economy.
The After-Glow
of Easter
By Frank W. Gvnsaalus
RASTER morning signifies forover
n that our best ideal, even though
slain and buried by the enemies,
of all goodness, cannot bo kept
in tno grave, urucny Trutn on
Calvary, and wound it to death; placo
It in tho strongest of sepulchres, and
sot a seal of stone, and Truth will
rlso again. It is tho history of every
Great Cause of Goodness first cruci
fixion, after being misunderstood and
mistreated; then entombment, and
then resurrection Tho story of Jesus'
death and resurrection Is tho per
ennial symbol of these thlng3.
If your Causo, or your Truth, or
your Vision of Goodness has not done
much for you has not won your love
and devotion before it was slain, you
will not likely recognlzo it when it has
proved itself superior to death.
Secondly, we will know our Lost
Causo when wo get back to something
like tho sad set of circumstances in
which we lost the thing so dear.
Thero is always a placo where wo
mentally lose our Christ where we
spiritually recognlzo tho tragedy of
tho overwhelming of cur adored Ideal.
If that adored Ideal is to havo a
resurrection, and we aro to know It,
as our Christ that Is, as the Power
in our lifo which saves us wo must
bo ready to find Christ In tho same
circumstances at tho same mental
crossroads whero wo lost him.
These disciples knew their tragic
loss at the Last Supper. Crucifixion
and Easter followed. Easter Sunday
evening came, and some of the dis
ciples started 01 1, perplexed and be
wildered, on an eight-mile Journey to
Emmaus, with a mysterious follow
traveler. Their mood was like tho
April weather. Tho sprlngtlmo was
walking through the gardens, open
ing buds into bloom, and liberating
tho song In the bird's throat, as these
men passed on; but they were think
ing of little save the news which
stirred uncertainly in heart and brain.
Every now turn of events served only
to start questions and stimulate vaguo
hopes, like unto those which had been
destroyed on Calvary.
The Stranger felt this mood, and
said to them: "What manner of com
munications are these that yo have
ono to another, as yo walk and are
sad?" One of them was so full of hia
own thoughts and of the event that
had engrossed their attention that
ho said in reply: "Art thou only a
stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not
known the things which are come to
pass there In these days?"
Soon the Stranger was opening up
to tho two sad companions tho treasure-house
of tho Scriptures. They
were now near tho village. It ap
peared that their new comrade was
going straight on and away from
them. Ho had bidden them a good
evening. Something in them, how
ever, mado it Impossible for them to
let hlra go. Something In him was
lifo and light, and It must not be
lost. Tho night was near; would ho
not abide with them. Besides tho
dictate of hospitality thus expressed,
their hearts wore speaking. Ho had
warmed into life tho dearest hope thoy
over had, and they thought It had per
ished. A resurrection had already oc
curred to them. If they failed to hear
all that ho had to say thoy might loso
everything.
As wo read tho gospel story we havo
a senso of glad relief when wo come
upon Luke's words: "But thoy con
strained him, saying, 'Abide with us,
for it is toward evening, and tho day
13 far spent' He went in to tarry
with them." Who has not expressed
tho deslro to havo been thero with
tho three, as they sat at tho evening
meal together? Was anything to re
mind them of that Last Supper? As
was customary, tho guest had tho
chief seat at the table, and he took
the bread, uttered tho blessing and
gavo it to them.
Then camo their glad cry: "It 1b
tho Lord!" Was It his touch upon
tho bread so llko tho touch upon tho
bread and wlno at tho supper in the
upper room, whoro they saw him last
"the Last Supper" that made them
recognlzo him? Certainly ho seems
to hint -this, In the phraso which re
callB the past, as ho says: "While I
was yet with you."
Tho lesson for us Is to look for our
Lost Ideals, which are Risen Ideals,
in the very circumstances where they
wore lost. Expeot them to appear to
you and to me, in tho mental mood
and tense which were yours and
mine, when wo confessed to our hearts
that wo had seen them betrayed and
forsaken.

HIS WILL TATTOOED
ON SHOULDER BLADE.
Los Angeles. Probably the most
odd will ever drawn by man is that
of Harry Kohlman, a miner from
San Bernardino county, who has had
his last testament tattooed in pur
ple Ink on his loft shoulder blade.
Kohlman said he was about to
take a trip through the troubled re
gions in Mexico and he wanted a will
that was Indestructible and one that
would survive robbers or fire. His
property is valued at ?'50,000.
Still inflamed from the tattooer's
needle Kohlman exhibited his will to
a few friends. Thero are but four
teen words in tho " document," but
lawyers say it is perfectly legal. It
reads: " All my claims south of Red
Hill, San Bernardino county, to J.
H. Carl, H. Kohlman."
