T 1J - A
Easter, tho fcsllyal of tha rosureretion of
Jesus Christ, dorlvcs probably Its Toulonlc
name, from tho goddess Ostara, In
Anglo Saxon, Easter, which tho Saxons
of old woro wont to, colobrate about tho
sameseason at which tho christian festival
of Kaster occurs. In tho ancient church,
tho celebration of Easter lasted ovor eight
days. After the 11th cantu-y, it was
limited tothrae, and In lattor times to two
days. It was formerly the favorite timo
for performing the rlto of baptism. Tho
courts of justlco wero closed, and alms
dispensed to the poor and needy, which led
to muchjdlsorler. Slaves also received
their freedom at that season, and as the
austerities of Leai ware over, tho people
gave themselves up .to enjoyment; honce
tbe day was called tho
SUNDAY Or JOY.
The Tirooer time for tha celebration of
Xastac has ococasioaed no little contra
versy. In tha second, century a dlsput
arose between ta eastorn and western
churches. Tho great mass of tho eastern
churches celebrated Easter on the day of
ba Jewish month or moon, conceding it
to be equivalent to tho
Tbe western churches celabrtttod it on tbo
Sunday after tbe 14 to day, holding that' it
was the commemoration of the rciurroc-
tionofJosus, The
COL'NCIL or NICE
deoldod In favor of tho weUern usage,
branding the eastern usage with tho naino
of tho 'nuarlitdeciraau" hereby. This
.however only nettled the point that Hat
ter wet to bo held not upon n curtain day
of the month or moon, but onjja
Sundny, . ,and Kustur dny is
,lway the fir.l Sunday after th'u

appropriate to Eaatcrday in the old time
were, above all, eggs, then bacon,, Unsy,
pudding, bread and cheese. Therein bo
little doubt that the use, of egg ut this
kcaion wua originnally svmbolintl of tho
rnviviicatluii nt- nattirn tho tprlnglng
forth of life In spring. Tho practkit Is
not con lined to christian ; the Jews u-ed
eggs in thij fes't of the I'uvovi-r ; und we

tho opening year or spring; tho Anglo
Saxon namo of K'tormonuth ; and it la
still known in Uornuny as tJstcriiionath.
The wor.hlp of this being was brought'
Into England by the Hsxons. It was cel
ebrated by the kindling of bonfires and
(sithjCr rites. Tho bonfires can be
tracidj'tll .ln thc25reat "paschal
tapers,' ' sometimes weighing 3W pounds,
with which the churches are lighted on
Eastor Eve.
In tbo United States Easter Sunday it
celeoraloU.in tue Catholic and Episcopal
churches, In tho former by modlflod forms
of tbe ancient observances and In'the latter
by peculiarities In tho church torvi.ee,
adapted to tho season Tand meaning of tho
festival. The custom of coloring eggs is
universally followcdby all classos and de
nominations, and on Easter Sunday not an
urchin may bo seou but has his "Easier
