Kear not ye: tor I know that ye aeek Jasua, whlvli waa crucified. "Ha !• not here, for He li risen. *• He e*ld. Come, ase the place where the Lord lay."—Matthew, xxvltl, 6 *. Thua, in simple words i* told the greatest story in all mankind’* treaauped lore. The empty tomb. The linen garment* lying there. The atone rolled away. The stricken guard. The angel, and the sor rowing women, whose black grief was turned to won dering Joy by what they found. On that Incident rests the faith of millions, who find in the story the secure foundation for a trust that sustains them through life, through death,, and into eternity, m m * It is very well to tell of the pagan feast that pre ceded Easter. It was the occasion of rejoicing among the people, going ba'ck to an antiquity un penetrated by research. Man had associated the com ing of spring with certain movements of the stars, and worshiped accordingly. The Jews had connected their Passover with the event, and had given it for themselves a little deeper significance. But to all of them it was the physical proof of a rebirth. Na ture was coming back, out of the death of long and cruel winter. So might man also be reborn. Therefore, the time was one for rejoicing, par ticularly because it brought the promise of another seed time and harvest, of plenty to eat, of relaxation in the open, and surcease from the hardships and privations, the short rations and the suffering from cold. If priests and prophets added to it the in definite promise of a life beyond, of existence in another sphere, so much the better for those who could find it in their hearts to believe. For the many the feast partook only of its material promise. • e • “But," in the language of Paul, “now Is Christ risen from the dead; and become the first-fruits of , them that slept." It was not a physical but a spirit ual sign, the portent of the empty tomb was that man should by faith triumph over earthly things and in the end have eternal life. We can understand the wonderment and the mystification of the women, of Mary to *whom Jesus spoke, of the disciples, even of Thomas who doubted. Men are still mystified, still doubt and dispute, when it is so much easier to believe. Out of this empty tomb has flowed an unceasing, ever swelling flood of inspiration, mounting on Hope, sustained by Faith, lifting mankind higher and higher with each passing day. Charity, the greatest of them all, is coming more and more into the lives of men and nations, beesuse of the light that shines from that tomb that did give up its dead. Examine tha history of the years thst have intervened be tween that day and this, and notice how steadily the relations of human existence have improved. see Men still wrangle over points of belief. Creeds divide them into clashing groups. War has not van ished, nor poverty, disease nor misery. Yet all these things have been softened, ameliorated, mitigated, and the way of all the raee Is correspondingly easier, because some of the influence of Jesus and His teachings have touched the lives of all. 80 it will probably be unto the end. Religions will rise and swell, prosper and subside, Just as they have through all human history, snd perhaps before any record was kept. The simple dogma of Jesus rests on eternal truth, the first and great commandment, and the second that Is like unto it, “and on these twe commandments hang all the law." So, we may all, regardless of faith or doctrine, believe the promise, "Lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world." That is what Easter means; that is the message of the Empty Tomb. THE HEROINES OF EVERY DAY. Ever and anon there blaze* before the world the name of a woman who ha* performed »ome great deed or made *ome heroic sacrifice for mankind. Clara Barton, Florence Nightingale, Mary A. Liver more, France* Willard—these are name* to conjure with when we seek to arouse interest in deed* of charity and of love. But there are other women whose name* are never recorded on the printed page, who never re ceive from the world the plaudit* they so richly de serve, and who will forever remain unknown save in the little circle in which they move and serve. They are the ever faithful women found in every rural church congregation whose heroic *ervlces keep thi church doors open, the pulpit supplied, the Bible school going, the midweek prayer meeting function ing and the interest on the church debt paid. Into the pies and cake* each one bakes for the church supper she put* her faith and Christian zeal in full est measure. To her the work of washing the dishes after the church supper I* over is a labor of love, a cheerful service in the cause -of the Master whom her sister was the last to leave at Calvary and the first to greet at the mouth of the riven tomb. Dorcas, who lived and worked in the days when the impetuous Peter and the learned Paul were car rying the torch of Christianity into all land*, left a wonderful sisterhood to carry on the work of the church. Without these good women that work would languish, and in many, many places would fail ut terly. They work and sacrifice, with no thought* of the world's plaudits, but with eyes alight with a faith that increase* with the passing years. Their only earthly ambition i* to further the cause they love and build firmer their part In the kingdom.

"Where two or three are gathered together In My name" waa not spoken of a group that might assemble around a loud speaker. A novel and really perplexing factor at least to an outsider—la now Introduced by a New ^ork minister of the Preshyterian denomination. Hi* congregation is lsrgely made up of those who take their Sunday do** of doctrine and dogma, cheer and consolation, sitting easily at home, tuned In on the radio. Thi* pastor is arranging with the pro hibition officers to permit such communicants to have at their homci a supply of sacramental wine, in order that they may say communion also hy way of the wireless. The individual cup long ago started an argument that is not yet at an end. Sanitary reason* were urged, the communion being spiritual and not phy sical. Against this the ultra orthodox set up that it is the very body and blood of Jesus, and so is phy sical as well as spiritual. That is a contention that has had followers since apostolic time. However, the individual cup is tolerated, and that being so, the still more exclusive practice of taking communion at home may be justified. Yet, what becomes of communion? From a gregarious and social state men are thus led into the isolated and consequently the selfish. Communion with the Most High is had in solitude. In fact, it is recommended, but the assembling of the congrega tion before the veil also is important. We do not pretend to settle this point. The reader will have little trouble in carrying the thought along to a rea sonable conclusion. One reflection that presses is that the church will not entirely fill its place in the world until it stirs a lot of lazy folks out of their lethargy, and gets them to attend in person at the services where the praise and worship of God is the order of the day. NEW YORK’S BOY IS AMERICA'S. New York is going to display a great “loyalty and health” parade on May 1. Part of the plan is to have for grand marshal pf the parade a typical New York boy. He has already been located in the person of 14-year-old John Mitchell, a freshman in one of the city’* high schools. Here are some of his qualifying attributes. He likes apple pie, swim ming, tales of adventure, thinks once a week is often enough for the movies, reads Abraham Lin coln’s speeches and expects to be an engineer when he gets out of school. Of course he is healthy, enjoys outdoor sports and is getting good marks at school. Such a boy Is typicaf, not of New York alone, but of the whole United States. We have millions of him, and on his shoulders rests the future of the country. Boys who like apple pie, who read about Abraham Lincoln, get good marks at school, love play in the open and plan to be good and useful citizens when they come to manhood are the ones who will keep alive through the centuries the light on the altar of liberty. They are the hope of the country. They are its very backbone. The good men of today were such boys yesterday, as were their fathers before them. Our boys are not being spoiled, despite the fact that they do some things the boys of yesterday or the day before did not do. They yet are made of the same metal as were their daddies. It must not all be put on the boy, though, for father and mother have their responsible share in seeing that this healthy, normal lad grows up to be a strong and useful man. “As the twig is bent the tree is in clined,” and a little attention to the bending of the twig is necessary. WAISTLINES AND THE DIVINE PASSION. "Why 21?” asked Mary Garden, In answer to a reporter’s inquiry. "One hasn't begun to live at 21.” No, indeed, Mary; nor has one exhausted life at 47. At 21 Big Bill Kdwards was doubtless as sylphlike as such a man can be. His waist was slender, his muscles hard, his eyes flashing with the fire of a boy to whom the world was just opening. Years of soft living have done their perfect work on Big still. Now his waistline is said to be somewhere near 90 inches. If, indeed, this be true, Bill is qualified to be listed as obese, and that just about puts him out of the tunning. Bo long as a man is only fat, or even cor pulent, there is hope for him, but to be obese—well, that is about all there is to it. Many a man has comforted himself, after seeing hi* waistline go, that so long as his chest measure equals or exceeds his circumference amidships, he is entitled to be set down as merely fat. But, alas, lor Big Bill Kdward*. If his future happiness de pt nds on his waistline, he is in a parlous condition. Once that fine division is passed, and man assumes the shape that is politely described as “portly,” he is a goner. Nothing he can do, starvation or o.herwise, will evrr set him back to the lines of 21. Ask any body who has tried. Disease may do it, but no exer cise or diet ever has brought the result. Mary may relent. Bhe ignores 21, now that she is 47, and she has changed her mind in times gone by. Bo, If she really wants Big Bill, she will take him, obesity and all. As good a judge as Julius Caesar asked to have fat men around him. What, do you suppose, did the delegates go to Chicago for in 1920? And why has Theodore Bur ton been accused of making Harding, ’when it whs Jake Ilarnon all the time, and everybody seems to have known all about it? Kspecially, a lot of folks no one ever heard of before? The Bee’s investigator was three fourths right, which is a whole lot closer than most political prog nosticators have been coming to the mark of recent year*. A Japanese newspaper says we are “menu na tionallsts.” If it gets no worse than that, we can stand the threatened “breach of cordiality.” Another open question: Why did everybody trust Gaston B. Means with dangerous secret#? Omaha ministers are all smooth shaven now. It was not so in Aaron’s day.

A Illy bud In the garden, Among the Iwautlful flower*, Wn* buffeted by the March wind Then fed by the April shower* Till at last Its lietals opened And looked up Into the sky, While to Itself l( pondered: “Of what e«rthly use am I. I. only a little Illy, Only a little white flower Abloom In thla fragrant garden. To fade with the coming hour?" The gardener, so kind and gentle, With his long and snowy hair. Walked slowly down the pathway And stood by the Illy there. “Oh, lily! I pity you, Illy! Your lot Is no envied one, For you will he dead forever When tomorrow’s day Is done. My lady has given orders That this little flower, so white, Shall he sent for the Faster service Straightway with the morning's light." Next day, all through the sermon. The Illy nodded its head, But after the service was over The fair little flower was dead After the service was over. One with brow furrowed with care Knelt down at the altar railing And raised her voice In prayer. She prayed to that One In heaven Who cares for the sinner and saint, Who cleanses our sins forever. Our sin of the darkest taint. Then the dear little Illy, Emblem of purity sweet, Was brushed from the altar rail And fell at the jienltent's feet. She picked It up and kissed It While a tear stood In her eye: “Oh, Illy, dear, precious lily! Sweet Illy, why did you die? Oh. Illy, dear little Illy! Today I could envy thee; Thou hast died for the King of Glory Who died for the world and me,” 'Oh. Illy, dear little Illy! Today thou has died for one The Savior of sinful nations, God's only tiegotten son." And the tear that fell on the flower Shone bright as the purest pearl, While the angels smiled In heaven And rejoiced for another soul. She placed the flower on the Bible.

From th* Cl«v#l»nd Plain Dwlir. New York.—The sale of the Wool worth building last week for $11,000, 000 revealed more than the actual market value of the property. It brought to light some sidelights on the value of the name. When the giant building was com pleted in 1912 Its renting agents had a very difficult time to find tenants to fill its 59 floors. The name Wool worth was associated only with S and 10-cent stores and big concerns did not wish to have their names asso ciated with it. Despite the fact that the mew structure was the last word in skyscrapers and located at Broad way and Park place the renting agents had to make unusual conces sions to even partly fill the building. Ah the president of one concern which occupied a suite of offices on one of the upper floors, told me: "We didn’t want to have the name Wool worth on our letterheads, for we didn’t want to give that impression to our business connections around the country. But we were able to get a long lease at such a low rental that we waived our prejudices. Today we are paying $21,000 a year for of fices we were paying $7,000 only two or three year# ago. Why?

Funeral etiquette is not a subject of pleasant consideration. Yet there are many little niceties which must be observed, particularly bv the family; and it is comforting, when grim necessity demands, to know to whom to turn for sympa thetic advice and suggestions. Hoffmann's women attendant* may be freely consulted, without hesitation or embarrassment, on any point involving these questions. • They are glad to be of service in this way. They will advise on clothes—indeed, they will willingly go to the store and help to select suitable garments if desired. They will visit the home If requested, and confer with the family on matters where a woman’s understanding and sym pathy may help to comfort in hours of profoundest grief.
