AN APPLE ORCHARD IN THE STRING.
Have you seen an apple orchard in tb
sprint;?
In the spring?
An English apple orchard In the spring?
When the spreading trees are hoary
With their wealth of promised glory.
And the mavis sings Its story.
In the spring.
Have you plucked the apple-blossoms In the
spring?
In the spring?
And caught their subtle odors In the spring?
Pink buds pouting at the light.
Crumpled petals baby-white,
' Just to touch them a delight
In the spring.
Have you walked beneath the blossoms In
the spring?
In the spring?
Beneath the apple blossoms in the spring?
When the pink cascades are falling,
And the silver brooklets brawling.
And the cuckoo bird soft calling.
In the spring.
If you have not, then you know not. In the

Half the color, beauty, wonder of the spring.
No sweet sight can I remember
Half so precious, half so tender.
As the apple uloBsoma render

APRIL.
"April, pride of woodland ways.
Of glad days;
April, bringing hope of prime
To the young flowers that beneath
Their bud sheath
Are guarded in their tender time."
rew or tne montns were ever
moved about on the calendar quite
as frequently as this, the loveliest
season of the entire spring, when old
Dame Nature is as busy as the pro
verbial bee dressing the trese and
fields in new garments of fresh and
living green.
In the ancient Alban calendar,
when the year just had the meager
supply of only ten months, the ten be
ing of very Irregular length, April
stood at the first of Cag year, with
thirty-six days to its credit. Then in
the calendar of Romulus, it was
tucked away in the second place, and
had to content itself with only thirty
days.
Numa's calendar docked the long
suffering month again by taking away
another day, and putting it down on
the list until it lodged in the fourth
place, where it has stuck hard and
fast ever since.
For many years It possessed only
twenty-nine days, then Julius Caesar
pulled the months and the year all
to pieces, and kindly tacked one more
day to April, restoring It to its old
place among the other months pos
sessing the dignity of thirty days.
The name April is generally be
lieved to have come from the Latin,
"aperio." meaning, "I open," and was
no dubt given to this particular sea
Bon in the year when the buds of both
trees and flowers begin to grow and
unfold thefr beauties in the spring
sunlight.
The old Romans consecrated the
first of April to Venus, the Goddess
of Beauty and Queen of Laughter,
and on that day the widows and
maids of Rome used to assemble in
her temple, and with tears and lam
entations pray that the beautiful god
dess would remove any deformities
or blemishes that disfigured them,
that they might became beautiful in
the eyes of all beholders.
The Romans regarded April aa a
very gay and festive season, and dur
ing the month they held many big
celebrations, the great equestrian
combat held on the nineteenth, and
the Robigalia, on the twenty-fifth for
averting mildew, being the two most
important.
Like all the other months in the
year, April has had several names
In his new calendar, Charlemagne
designated it as the "grass month,"
a name the Dutch still cling to, call
ing it at the present day "Grasmaad."
Tken during Neros terrible reign it
was known as Neroneus, being so
called, no doubt, in honor of that
vain and wicked ruler.
Of course the Anglo-Saxons could
not possibly let it go by them without
adding at least one new name to the
many it already possessed. "Oster
monath," they called it, meaning the
month when the East winds did
muchly blow, and it is generally be
lieved that the term Easter came
from the same origin, for in this
month the -Saxons held their great
celebration in honor of their goddess
Eastre. . .
In China the symbolic plowing of
the earth by the. Emperor and
Princes of the Royal Blood takes
place in their third month, which
corresponds to our April, and in Ja
pan there is held a quaint and in
teresting domestic festival known as
the Feast of the Dolls.
