LAND HUNGER 'IN CITIES.,

The Ameriean peopte have always

aid th. people Of the Pith% have it
move acute form than ever before.
Several [hinge have .couniertai to de-
velop the "bads to the land" idea Ita
OU r city mut:Mon. The first is the
increased cost of living ticities. TIe
most economical and prudent man who
worae for wagee In a great city today
cannot save much tnouey even it be
is well paid. Thousands who make
what woulkj leave been called high
wages ten or twenty years ago bare
little more than enough to pay their
current expenses. Other tlaousands are
barely existing without tbe possibil-
ity ot becoming Independent of the
uncertainty ot employment and the
certaints of the collector's calls.
The panic of 1907, whieh took em-
ployment from many people without
reducing their living expenses to any
great exteut, caused thousands to
think seriously of getting into some
business In whiqb "the bite to eat and
the dud to wear" will not dolma,
wholly on matters beyond tbeir con
trot, such as panics, rents and prices.
Another cause of the present laud
hunger in cities is the reading of ar
tieles and advertisements iu the daily
papers. Never before were afloat so
many wonderful tales ot success in
farming -success achleVed without ex•
perienee and without capital, hide-
pendeoce acquired in a short time,

lishment, and some tells of achieve-
ments that are clearly impossible. Of
course the advertisements caleulated
to interest the city tnan in land Jun
tower(' Ulm the brigbt side of the plc-
ture. it is tbeir purpose to luterest
lete to the estent of selling land to
hint. and, whether such advertising ap-
pears in type or in the form of ex-
hibits, it does not end eannot be ex-
pecfed to show hire euytelog but the
attraetire side of life% on the land. ' •
It is n good thing for the public to
• become deeply interested in farming,
to study it and learn more about it.
Anythilig that inekes men do this will
at last result in a better understand-
ing between the city and tee; coeutey
people of ties greet nation. But it is
deplorable that in 1111, this there must
be so mileti misrepresentation, suett
inflated expectations and at last so
many losses and disappoietinents, for
many who attempt to gain ludepeuce

knowledge end without experience

any business. '

The Spring Styles.
"If you want to look younger,
adopt the new fashions," says Grace
Margaret Gould in Woman's Home
Companion for April.
"Paris says youthful frocks for
snring. And Paris has gone to the
peasant type for its inspiration. The
famous fashion -makers. are .enVolving
simple gowns which emphasize the
normal waistline, the plain but double
skirt and bodices made without the
sign of an armhole seam. But this is
only one of the many new ideas which
Paris is launching upon, the fashion
world this spring.
"Paris. also says, in her very next
breath, that the double idea is the
mode. She is illustrating it in ma-
terials and in color combinations, and.
she is telling, not only the fair
Parisienne, but the Belle America-
ine that she must wear double skirts,
double blouses and double sleeves -
really two frocks at the same time.
"Now both of these dominant
French ideas are bang reflected ia
the American fashions for spring.
And these are the fashions, of course,
which the American woman wants ea-
pecially to hear about.
"But first, bdore. I go into detail,
let me just say this : All the new
fashions, no matter :their charm or
matter their caprice) should really be
no regard try the woman who ,cares for
the artistic in dress, as suggestions
rather than laws. Women should re-
member that it is always possible to
get much beauty from an ugly fash-
ion, just as it is possible to get much
ugliness from a beautiful fashion. As
in all human results, it is the prrson-
al clelment that counts. Therefore,
study and striae for that which 1i
most adapted to your own personal-
ity and which tend- most te make it
attractive. That is one of the big se-
crets which helps the fashionable wo-
man to be fashionably* and becoming-
ly dressed."

THE. DA,TE OF EASTER.
It took a long time to settle the
question when Easter should be cele-
brated. It was a subject of divided.
opinion and practice among the East-
ern and Western churches. The early
Christian's held that as Christ, the
true paschal Lamb, bad been , slain
on the very day when the Jews cele-
brated •their Passovei., immolating the
figurative lamb, so those who believ-
ed in the Christian Passover to be a
commemoration of Christ's death,
held the Easter festivity on the day
prescribed for tilt Jewish Pasehr.
The question, however, became troub-
lesome, and threateried serious
gehism'. At tbe Council of Nice, in
325, the discussion was closed by
adopting an unalterable rule. This
makes Easter Day to be always the
first • Sunday after the full mood,
'which happens upon cr next 'after
March 21st. If the full neoon happens
on a . Sunday; Easter Day' is the
Sunday after. Thus Easter may fall
as early as Marc. 22, or ,es late as
April 25. It. so occurs that ' this
year Easter was. Abe ,earliest within
the •memory of even elderly church-
men.
