Sin- was the only pirl in the purtj who had brought no flowers, she had excused bersclf by srylttg she needed all her noney for her Buster i-it t Nev Vorit. "All right," saitl Mi-- Mary, cheerfully, "probably there will be lilies enough 1 go around. There are seldom more than is or l ! bcdi occupied in the long white ward." Honor wna left alone while her Bcboolmatea tiptoed about among the patients. Bhc had not imagined she mihi feel lonely here. Mie wa- she was lonelier than any of li e women in the anrrow beda. Tin nurses were buatling here and there among the piris, there were low bursts of laughter and greeting as if everybody knew one nnother. On the small table beside each bed atood a Mt of lilies. A delicate fragrance vvas already waftad about the long room. There were smiles on pinehed fares that lav on the white pillows, and there were wan fares that flushed rosily. Honor bepan to feel terribly alone and awkwnrdand ashamed; then Miss Mary caBaC hurryin'r to her. "Honor." she saitl. "I'm so sorry. We nre snort just one pot of lilies. It is for a poor old lady nt the end of the ward. Nobody aeentad to not ire her at first; there was a srrernhy her bed.

Every girl at the round table flamed CttfioUsly at Honor when she tonk her seilt. Her fare was flushed rosilv. It may have been the etTeet of her walk in the bracing spring air, but to ftai Mnrv'-. keen eye it came from something in the heart of the girl. The old listlessness was gone, a new purpose and enthttainana shone in the dark BJ CS. Honor was one of the ipiiet o-i r I -of the school; to-night she seemed more silent than Msual. The conatanl st ream of ehiitter den It with the i--it to the Boafdul and the people there, ami teata came into girllab eyea ai thejj told pitiful atorit of the si k. Then the chatter leaped t the Ka-ter racatlon. A group of the pirl were going with Klaa Mary ehnperoa to Old Point Comfort, others to spenil tli"ir two weeks' holiday in New York. The girll with homes not too far distant were wiltl with delight at the thought of seeinij fathers and mothers and brothers and sisters. Honor was the only pirl w h did not join in the general anticipation. Her neighbor, roguish kfoilic Cable, rallied lier on being tongue-tied. In the Lady Undsaj achool there ia a half -faour every exeninir after tea when the principal is to ie found in her room for a chat inside a closed door.

The deeoration of an Easter dinnertable .should be a j to everv woman w ho ca ii command some spring flowers. For. of course, if available only spring Bowers, with their promise of new life and jri.liU'ii da y s. would be one's choice; lacking which, however, no Dowers need be scorned. One can make a table beautiful with green alone, particularIv such delicate greens as asparagus or maie'enhair ferns, or even the common fern or smilax artistically arranged Perhaps the loveliest floral sei t ing for the Baater feast would be one- of white tulips und mahlt nhnir ferns. These couhi be arranged in Single piece in 1 he center f thctnblc. or the center piece could be nf ferns ah ne in variety, and the tulips placed at each cover in tiny crystal vases only large enough for a singl.- bloom and its leave-. Tulip-leaves are very affective and should never be removed in any disposition made of the flower. Next to the pure white of Faster, in tulips or other flower (leaving the lily with its sacred symbolism to its rightful office in the church), this choice would fall Upon something yellow, the lost gladsome of colors, and nature's sprinsr favorite. Of these JonujUila Ute probably the most effective. Ella Morris Kretschmar, in Woman's Home Companion. SIGNIFICANCE OF EASTER. Is. That of Life II rent.
