The praises of Stag Brand Semi-Faste Paint are heard everywhere, which fact is only due to the many sterling values that are found in this paint, i'orbaleliy Lewis a v insiow lldwe Lo, Asheboro, N C. Easter in Europe. In Munich and Vienna, the churches on Good Friday are the scene of a very striking picture of the burial of C hrist. A ngureof the savior is carried in state around the church to the altar, where is a sepulcher, to which access, through an opening iormeu by artincial rocks, awaits it. The windows are darkened and, through the gloom, the eyes of thou sands ot awed worshipers are drawn td the tomb, where a solitary light illumines the white-palled figure of tne cruciheu uhnst. la some parts of Austria large processions parade the steets, headed by priests riding on horses and bearing banners, with an escort of white-robed choristers chanting hymns, and in Bavaria the peasants form processions, hundreds, sometimes thousands, strong, herald ed by a man bearing a gigantic can dle. One of the most peculiar of these continental celebrations of Easter is that which for centuries has been practiced by the monks of Ronoe yaux. As day breaks on the morn ing of Good Friday, a long proces sion of monks files out through the gateway of the abbey, each bearing on his back an enormous and heavy cross, by way of annual penance and in imitation of what they consider to have been one of the severest forms of Christ's physical suffering. l hrougn hamlets and villages, this pathetic procession makes its way, in spite of the trembling knees and aching muscles, while the villagers, witn bare ana bowed heads, do hom age to the cros. That their pen ance may lack nothing of severity, these monks strike into the country, choosing the steepest and roughest paths.
