BAB'S LETTER.

Published, 1896, by tbe Bok Syndicate Prfess, New York.] NEW YOBK, April 1,1896.

Good Friday had gone by, the children had been told the meaning of the hot cross buns, and somebody's baby had been rapturously kissed because she said, banging her rosy little fist on the table, "I wouldn't hurt the Good Man and I'd kill the naughty people who did it." Then came Saturday, and there was a quiet over all the house as if some one we loved had said good-bye to us forever and yet, there was a hope. Saturday evening found three women meditating—for we belong to that faith which values most of all quietness and meditation, and which teaches that the greatest sermon is preached "by one's own heart. At last I was left alone. Because the night was chilly there was a bright fire, and as I looked at it I raised my eyes to the clock above it, and saw that it was the eleventh hour of the night. The chime rang out as softly as if in tbe presence of the dead, and I fell into my own comfortable chair and looked at the fire in it seemed to glow letters of deeper fire, and deeper red, "And the sea gave up the dead which were in it and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them and they were judged every man according to his works."

My heart repeated the last line, "According- to his works." And then there came over me a great awe, and I saw all the world standing before the Maker of it to be judged. And some trembled and were frightened and many hoped and some acted as if they cared for nothing but as they separated and each went toward the great white throne, alone, to stand before God and be judged according to his works, there came a horror like unto nothing that I can describe. And some one standing near me said, "I am not afraid to be judged before the whole world, but oh! the awfulness of that time, alone with -God, with only my sins to face me."

And the man went by me, one whom I had known as kind-hearted, pleasant and of whom nothing worse was said than that he was his own worst enemy. Some one asked him, could it have been the Judge in a rich beautiful voice, "Where are the gifts that were yours? Where is the great talent that was given unto you? What have you done with the ability to speak and pehsuade men to do the right? Buried it under the sins of the flesh killed it by gluttony and lust." And the man passed on with drooping head and I saw him no more.

THEN THEHK CAME ANOTHER.

,a man who was known to the whole world because of his great wealth. The Voice asked: "What have you done with that which was given unto you? Where are the poor that you have helped? Where are the hungry that you have fed? Where are the sick that you have helped to heal? You speak of hospitals built by your money—but they bore your name. You speak of great gifts that endowed homes for children—was there ever a gift that all the world did not know about? What did you do for the poor of your own household? Where is your unfortunate brother whose chief fault was that he had not your accu mutative spirit, and in what spirit did you think of him? Where is the helping hand you gave to him? He was the Lazarus at the gate, and you did not care whether he even got the crumbs from your table but now he shall be your judge." And the rich man went his way with haughty head bowed, and the tears were new to him coursing down hhis cheeks. Then I saw a woman, beautiful to look upon, and j'etwe had all heard of her as leading a wicked life. And the Voice said, with tenderness: "Come, daughter, and fear not. It is true that you have sinned—sinned grieviously but where is the man who first, taught you to sin? Where is the one, who, with loving words, gentle flattery and persuasion, that sounded so sweet, made you believe right was wrong, and who led you into sin, and called it love. He should stand beside you. He made you an outcast. Every woman's heart was against you, though every man's arms were open to you but yoti were never cruel you never forgot the siok and the poor, and you were never a hypocrite. A just punishment will be given to you but besides you, through it all, will be a kindly spirit to console, since you were more sinned against than sinning."

Then came another woman. The world knew her name as a leader in great charitable works.

THK cntTRCH KNEW HER NAME

as one ever ready to pray, and of her it was said that she led what was called a strict life. And the voice demanded "Whereare the little children I put Into your arms? I gave them to you-—soft, loving and pure in return they have come to me women hard of heart, full of vanity, and despising everything that bears the name of religion. They are men who joy in having no belief, and who count life as of no worth except for the pleasure to be gained from it. This is your work. You taught them, not to love, but the vengeance of God. You taught them, not the gentleness but the severity of that Father to whom they had a right to turn in their hours of sadness or gladuess. They asked you for motherly love and sympathy you gave them a hurried answer, and reminded them of your duties to the outside world. You were eager to save the souls of tbe heathen in far off lands, and you gave no thought to those young creatures who had been put in your charge. You lived a wicked life, you were an unkind mother, and unloving wife, and I can see no page in the book of your life that can make the judgment waiting for yon any less severe than it. is." And this woman looked around for her children, but they were strangers to her. And she looked for the societies over which she had presided, but here there were none, Every man was trying to care for his own soul, knowing that he wpuld be judged according to his works.

And there was another. One of whom the world had said that harm was not in him. But he was reprimanded for indolence, for lack of thought, and reminded that at ease with himself he never allowed himself to be troubled about the sorrow aI any one else. Then I looked at the skies above me and they were blackest over those men who had wronged women and little children. Over those women who had been hard of heart, and cold of speech, but they were also dark over those who had wronged the weak ami hurt the dumb animals who couldn't speak, and yet who were so loyal. And some claimed that they only had little etna.

TUB UNUC 81X8 COUJSCTKD

together seemed to make a huge blade ball ready to strike them and send them into darknem. Another woman I knew

went by me and caught my skirt, saying she was so afraid. And the Voice said to her, "Yop thought of nothing while living but that which made you more attractive in the eyes of the world. Here your jewels and your velvets and your silks do not hide the black heart that they cover. The little pink tongue that flows between these deceitful lips has 'liar' written upon it, and the white hands are marked 'dishonest, for instead of using your beauty for some great purpose, you made fools of men with it. You stole away their brains, and made them misuse the talents that came to them from heaven.'" And as she went away, something awesome came about. Under her beautiful clothes could be seen her body, and on it burned in letters of fire the sins of which she had been rightfully accused.

All at once everybody disappeared. But where men and women had been I saw troops and troops of little children hurrying as fast as they could, the tiniest ones tumbling over each other in their eagerness to get ahead. And I stopped one and asked her what it all meant and in a voice of a child that I knew, of a child who had gone to sleep long ago, she answered, "We are the little children going to plead for our mothers." And the Voice said, "There are mothers wicked enough to kill their unborn babies, and yet these children are, so many times, their salvation.

MAGIC OF BABY HANDS.

Baby hands have led many a woman in the way she should go, and to a woman whose heart is loving, even a dead baby means much, for it is one who kneels at the throne and never ceases to pray."

Then I gained courage and asked: "Will there always be prayer?" And the answer came, "Forever and forever. And whether you kneel down to say your prayer or whether you think it out with great intensity in your own heart, be sure that it is pleasing to Him who can grant you what you wish. What is the matter with the world that it prays so little? Prayers go up from the churches, but many of them are meaningless. Men and women should never be afraid to pray. No matter how slight a thing that which you long for may seem, ask God for it. If sorrow comes and you need sympathy, and the words die on your lips, remember there is One who can read the heart as an open page, and answer without the spoken question. What is the matter with the world? It is a beautiful world. The sun shines over it, and the skies, in their many colorings, picture the sky which hangs over the Eternal City. But men look down and grovel rather than stand erect. Wickedness, if it be richly gowned, and lust, if it be framed with gold, and thievery with gems set about it, and unbelief in a clatter of tongues, are all thought much of by those who look down and who are blind. And yet, there are pure souls, great souls and loving souls in this old world of yours. There are men and women who deny them selves for the sake of spme one else, men and women to whom truth is known, and men and women who are rich in goodness and loving kindness."

THE HYPOCRITE'S DOOM.

Interrupting I asked: "When my time comes, will you go with me?" And the Voice answered "No. You must stand before God alone. If you have any support, it will come from any good that you have done, and if you are afraid and ashamed, be sure that that will not be counted against you, because what God most hates is hypocrisy, and His judgment is more severe on that sinner who, even before Him, pretends to believe his life was free from sin."

Then I asked again: "What are the small faults?" And the voice explained, "There are none. That which would seem a small fault in one life becomes a crime in another, is not a fault in another, since consideration is given to temptation, and to the heart of the sinner. As he looks down from heaven, God sees two of His children. One bred of love and honor, taught to live a life of virtue, surrounded by innocent pleasures and giv6n all thfe sympathy and love it may ask. It never knows hunger or cold, or physical misery of any kind. The other child is bred only of passion. It almost tumbles its way up in life, and is never taught the difference between right and wrong. It is hungry and it steals. It is cold, and it fails to see why the rich man should have warmth, and it suffer, so it commits murder. Love and consideration are unknown to it. It is Ishmael. When these two stand before God, how shall He judge? So-1 tell you there are no small faults. The sin of one differs from the other, but a sin is always a sin. Yet, as mercy is triumphant, each sin is weighed in the balance before the verdict is passed, and with God injustice is unknown."

There was a sound of chimes, and I started. The clock was striking twelve, the fire had burned out, and I was alone. The church bells were just beginning to ring, and I listened,

WAITtNO TO BE LED TO JUDGMENT,

for I could not believe that the lifetime I had lived among the dead had been in a dream and in only one hour. But I bent forward, and with a little care made the fire blaze again. Then, with wide open eyes, I read: "For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead." And the bells rang on joyfully, and I knew that the Eastertide was with us. But I wondered how I could meet those people whom I saw in my dream, until beside me there stood a little child who had been awakened by the bells, and who took my hand, and standing beside me sang her Easter hymn. Then it all came to me, and I realised that if we wish to be happy here and hereafter, you and I and our neighbors must be in heart like unto little children. We must cease to know that which is wicked, and must be eager, with the eagerness of a child, to give help unto those who need it. It means, does this Easter, the opportunity to rise again from the wickedness that we ourselves have created, and to live a new life.

IT 18 A WONDERFUL STORY,

this of the resurrection of the dead—none the less wonderful because it is tone. Isn't it beautiful that we women can think that the last to give a tender thought to the Christ Man were women—the mother who bore Him, and the woman who had sinned and been forgiven. And it is more beautiful to think that they were the first to bear the wonderful news that He had risen from the dead, and become the first fruits of them that slept. God bless everybody on Easter morning! God give tlies& a happy day. and make the year to cotoe a better one—better, because in ft there may be buried those sins that aeem so little, and that mean so much. Again, I say, God bless everybody on Easter morning! All that I can remember: all that is imprinting

itself on my mind, are the last lines of the Easter hynUi: 'Till morning's joy shall end the night of weeping, And life's long shadows break in cloudless love."

A dream? Yes. But I believe in dreams and it seems to me that special one came to teach some of us to live, that when we die, and have to spend those few minutes alone with God, though we may be afraid, still we need not fear that we will be judged too harshly for in the verdict there will be considered the temptations and the envi ronments, as well as the prayers of the little children, who are pleading for their mothers. I believe it. Believe that the dream was meant as a lesson to you and your neighbor, and— BAB.

COSTLY PRAYER BOOKS.

Dainty

The daughter of a famous New York millionaire will walk up the church isle on Blaster morning with a $600 prayer book and hymnal in her bands.

It is the Easter gift of her flanoe, and it was ordered from a New York jeweler months ago. It is not studded with gems. That degree of display has not been reached in prayer books yet. It is bound in soft leather, trimmed with heavy gold, over whose surface the Easter lily has been traced in en.-uuel. The metal in the book's ornamentation

It takes an artist to make a $2 book sell tar $600—an artist in selling as well as an artist in designing and in exeouting the design. The shopkeeper probably calculates that a man who oan pay $&00 or $800 for an Easter gift oan pay $500 as readily. But for the man who had nr* hundreds to spend the Easter shopping this year has had its attractions. In faofc, the popular taste at this season run6 to what is comparatively inexpensive. Hundreds of prayer books with simple silver olasp will be seen in New York's churches at the Easter service. Individually they will represent but a hundredth of the oost of the gold bound prayer book. The prayer book with the silver olasp is the least expensive form of this kind of Easter gift. In the great shops near Union square these cost but $5 apiece. In the less pretentious places they have retailed at $8 and even less.

The favorite form of Easter gift this year is a combination of prayer book and hymnal. It has oome in styles both ooBtlr and Inexpensive. In tbe fashionable shops the least expensive has oost $11. Both books are bound In flexible morocco or russla leather. In the flap of one binding is a slit, Into whioh the oover of the otLer book slides. Thus they beoome one when they are carried to churoh and two again at a moment's notioe. In the simpler forms these books are decorated, each on one oover, with a plain oorner of silver, such as deoorates the corners of latfles' pooketbooks. This is the style whioh sells for $11.

There are books a little

There is keen competition in New York \o make things costly—just as there Is an jven keener competition in some quarters Jo make things cheap. In the first olass are those who cater to the money prinoes. To many of these the money oost of an urtiole represents Its value. There is a Imit to the amount of gold and silver rith whioh even a jeweler will inorust a tiymnal. So the oost of these Easter gifts was increased this season in another direction. For tbe morocco and russia leather of common use was substituted elephant hide for those who wished to pay for It— Dot in its original thickness, but planed down after it was tanned. There was the hide of the cassowary, plainly perforated Where the feathers had been. There was monkey hide, stiff and clumsy. There was a honeycomb binding which was the slippery tripe of traditional toughness, tanned and reduced to make it servlceab^. And there were lizard skin and alligator skin and snakeskin, silver gray and black or dyed, any one of a dozen fashionable colors. All these were expensive, and of thousands of dollars will not oover tiM oost of those which will grace or decorate the Easter service in fashionable •fcurohas.

Tbe taste of Easter givers has run to player books and hymnals and Bibles this year as in years before. But the souvenir spoon, with a cross stamped in its gilded bowl, will adorn many an Easter dinner table, and tbe simple book mark, too, which was made popular two seasons ago, has lost none of its attractiveness—possibly beoause the one can be purchased far a dollar or two and the other /or. as little as 9$ oents.

A m- iiogram, half concealed among the enamel lilies, shows that the device was made JO order, and possibly enhances the value of the gift in the eyes of the receiver. It is pleasant to know that you have something which is unique as well as beautiful. To some it is even pleasanter perhaps to know that their Easter gifts are costly, though I believe that many a prayer book mark, with its dangling silver ornaments, which oost the thousandth part of what was paid for this book of prayer, is valued quite as highly and has created as much joy in the giving and receiving.

Books bound in substantial padded leather, with but a thin veneering of silver, which will be seen in some of the fashionable churches, will represent an expenditure of not less than $40.

EA8TCR TIME IN MEXICO.

Pilate's Image Boned on Saturday Belter* Kafer and Strog^lnf Crowds.

The people of Mexico are much more ceremonious in their obeervanoe of religious festivals than the people of the United States. Tbe respect of the more ignorant is based in some measure on an almost superstitious fear, but even the intelligent are more earnest in the outward manifestations of their belief than the less passionate people of the north. Easter is tbe most sacred of the church festivals in Mezloo, and from the half savage Indian to tbe wealthiest and most highly educated people of tbe City of Mexico all observe It with tbe ceremonies which have marked the season for hundreds of years. These ceremonies are not confined to Blaster Sunday. The day preceding it is of equal interest, if not of equal solemnity. On the Saturday before Easter the people of Mexioo burn Judas Iscariot in effigy.

In San Francisco street, opposite the Jockey clnb, hongs the most pretentions effigy. It is of pasteboard also, and it rides a pasteboard horse. Bnt tbe silver mounted saddle, the bridle, $he boots and spurs and the silver spangled hat are all genuine. Tho horse and the figure are hollow, and within them are the 80 pieces of silver and many hundred more. These are to be distributed to the poor.

By half past 11 o'clock the windows of the buildings all about are filled with well dressed men and women. In the Btreet below is packed a hungry looking horde of ragged Mexicans. At three minutes before the noon hour a servant from the Jockey olub appears with alighted taper. A murmur goes up from the crowd. Then there is an expectant hush. At the first stroke of noon on the great bell of the cathedral the flame of the taper is put to a fuse whioh hangs from the swinging figure. The mob sways as men struggle for position. The flame sputters upward to the mine of powder within the horse. An explosion sends the fragments of the two figures flying In all directions, and a shower of coin falls on the heads of the struggling crowd below. Some fight for the aoeouterments, some grab at the silver and roH over and over, tearing ragged clothing In the struggle for the possession of a ooin. From the burning wreok above tbe silver ooines down in a lessening shower until nothing of horse or rider is left. Then the beggars raise their handB in supplication to the windows and handfuls of ooin are thrown down to them till the spectators have no money left.

HE WOMAN •who takes the surest way. to gain a beautiful color and a wholesome skin will not take the cosmetics, paints and powders which soon injure the skin. Sallow or wrinkled face, dull eyes and hollow cheeks, together with

low spirits, follow the derangements, irregularities and weaknesses peculiar to the sex. All women require a tonic and nervine at some period of their lives. Whether suffering from nervousness, dizziness, faintness, displacement of womanly organs, catarrhal inflammation of the lining membranes, bearing-down sensations, or general debility, Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription reaches the origin of the trouble and corrects it. It's a mcdicine which was discovered and used by an eminent physician for many years in all cases of female complaint," and those painful disorders that afflict womankind. If women are overworked, run-down, tired or sleepless, if they are irritable, morbid and suffer from back-ache, they should torn to the right means for a permanent cure. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription fits jast such cases, for it regulates and strengthens the special functions, builds up and invigorates the entire female system. ..
