The Lord's Prayer.
'The following interesting anecdote is told
of Mr. Booth, the American Tragedian -
Booth and several friends had been invited
to dine with an old gentledsan in Baltimore,
of distinguished kindness, urbanity and
piety. The host, though disapproving of
theatres and theatre going, had heard so
mach of Booth's remarkable powers that,
curiosity to see the man had,in this instance,
ohercomeall his scruples. After dinner was
over, lamps lighted, and the company re -
seated in the drawing room, some one re-
quested Booth as a particular favor, and one
which all present would, doubtless, appreci-
ate, to read aloud " The Lord's Prayer."
Booth expressed his ready willingness. to
afford them this gratification, and all eyes
were tanned expectantly upon him. Booth

' Easter Eggs. .
The use of eggs on Easter day, soetimes
called Pasche, or paste eggs, has c down
to the present time. Eggs were held by
the Egyptians as a sacred emblem of the
renovation of mankind after the deluge.
The Jews adopted them to suit the circum-
stances of their history, as a type of their
departure learn the land of Egypt.
They were also used in the feast of the
Pa-sover.
Hyde, in his description of Oriental
sports, tells of one with eggs among the
Christians -of Mesopotamia on Easter day,
and 40 days afterward; "The sport con-
sists in striking their eggs- one against an-
other, and the egg that first breaks is won
by the °wrier of the one that struck its
Imme-diateiy another egg .is pitted against
the winning egg, and so on till the last egg
wins all the others, Which their respective
owners shall before have won." •
In Germany, sometimes.instead of eggs at
Easter, an emblematical print is occasion-
ally presented. One of these is preserved
in the print room of the British Museum.
Three hens are represented as upholding a
basket, in which are placed three eggs orna-
mented with representations illusteative of
the resurrection; over the centre egg the
" Agnus Dei," with a chalice representing
faith ; the othee eggs bearing the emblems
of Charity and hope. -Ladies Home Journal.
A Foolish Man.
James Fitzpatrick- was a very foolish man.
Aloee than 40 years ago he fell'in love. The
. lady of his heartfor some reason • did net
, fancy James. Perhaps she knew intuitive-
ly what a crank he would turn. out to be.
So be lost her, and was disappointed in
love. He turned his back on the world and
wentandlived by himself in a hut. He
grew dirty and disgruntlecl. and got worse
all the time. It, was a good thing he chose
to live Melee,. for he would have been a
aufficiently unpleasant creature for anyone
else to live with.
He hated the feminine sex with unquench-
able animosity. For forty years before he
died he never epoke to a woman. Being
what he was, women very readily' excused
him from speaking to them. Not long since
the old misanthrope was found - dead alone
in his wretched but,.
.He had thrown away his whole life on ac-
count of a silly emotion. It was not love.
There was no love in him really. He might
have worked and become well off and edu-
cated, half a dozen orphan children, even if
he had wanted to rensaia an old bachelor.
He Might have found happiness in travel or •
in cultivating his mind. There never) was
a woman that was worth a man's wasting
.his life over. There never will be.
Miracles Made Easy.
In a certain church in Ireland a young
priest was detailed to mach. The occa-
sion was his first appearaner e, and he took
for hie text, " The feeding. of the multi-
tude." He said, " And thy fed 10 people
with 10,000 loaves. el bread and 10,000

The Disease Disappears in Three
Weeks by the Use of B.B.B.-
Letter from Manitoba Fully
Describing It.
DEAR Sins, -During- the winter of 1802.93, I was
covered with Pimples on the inside of my right leg
between the knee and the ankle. As I never hid
anything of the kiwi before I watt anxious about it,
and sought medical advice), but getting no relief
from the doctor I tried a bottle of B. B. B., app13•ing
some of it to my leg as well as using it internally,
and to my surprise the nasty disease, whatever it
was, disappeared within threa weeks, aud I am
thankful to say it has never re.appeared.
