It' riH, the eggs will tlow lreely I mm the shad when a gentle pressure is applied to the belly of the fish; if unripe, the eggs will not tlow at all: it the eggs are only nearly ready, t hey will come forth with difficulty, in masses; such fish should not be t iken. A short time before the shad spawns, clear eggs of large size will ' Ix.' found in the roe, while the rest is still hard; these become more and more numerous; after a time they separate and fall apart, a liquid stream of eggs tiowing from the fish with the slightest pressure; uniipe' eggs will not tlow at all. Each person who takes the eggs should be provided with a tin pail, a pan and a dippor. The milter, or male shad, is rather smaller than the female; the sex will be known by the flow cd'milt from the lish. A very small quan tity of milt will impregnate a large number of eggs about one male in good condition to two or three fe males. The .-pawner, or female shad, is easily known by its size and full appearance. W hen a female is found from which the eggs flow freely when a gentle pressure is applied, take the ti-h carefully in the hands, grasping it with the left hand closely around the tad. the head of the fish being ; crowded closely against the body of the person, while with the thumb and forefinger of the right hand ap ply a slight pressure to the belly of the fish. A stripping movement is executed, which causes the eggs to tlow rapidly into the pan, which should be clean and without water. When all the spawn is taken, it will be shown by the blood appearing among theeggs. Take t wo or three female.- in this manner, then pick out a male, handle him in the same way, forcing out two or three jets of milt upon the eggs, after adding .-lowly a pint of water, sway the pan gently to and tio until the mixture oi eggs and in lit is com plete: then let them remain ten minutes.

This is the l.i-nteii -ea-oii a season which is observed with I In greatest .solemnity by all the Chi is tian churches of the world except by some id' the independent deiioin illations of 1'lngland and the I'nited States. l!y none is it more rigidly kept than by the Lutheran Churches of the North of Europe. For at least twelve hundred year-, and probably much longer, this fa-t of forty days before Easier has been kept as it is ob.-eivcd in.w. 1 u t the institution was not e-'ab-li.-bed at once in its present form. E.i.-ter. the feast ot' the Resurrec tion of .lesus. corresponding with the .lewi-h Passover, was kept from t he very earliest age of Cln is! un ity, and a dispute about the date ol celebrating it was one of the caii.-e-(d'lhe separation of the Ea.-tcin and the Western Churches the Cri'eek and the Roman. It is not known when the i u-ioin of fa.-ting before Easter originated, but it is refeired to in the writings ot Sr. Irena-us, who lived in the ton rt h century, as already ancient. It is possible.that it was observed to some extent by ( 'hri-t i.ins who had seen ,ind heard the Apo.-tles. but of t his there is no record. It seems certain, however, that it began with a fast of one or two days, and was gradually lengt hetied. There are passages in the woiks of the Church Fathers urging Chiis tians to prolong the oist and thir ty six days, t he tent h par! o;' a ear. is suggested as a proper duration. The CI reek 'h in ch ult i m at eh adopt ed a .-ea.-on of forty eight days, which is the period of Ecu; in Ru-.-ia. In the Rom. in Church. and the Cicnnan Churches of the Reioima tio:i and the Chinch of England adopted the same period. theteiiii is lorty days. This corresponds to each of the two fasts of Moses upon Mount Sinai, to the fast of Elijah when be tied lrom the wrath of .Jezebel after the .-laughter of the prophets of Iiaal. to the fast pro claimed at Nineveh when donah preached to that city, and to the fast ol our Lord when He was' tempted in the wilderness. E'-nt which originally meant unfiling more than springtime was formerly kept with gloat aus teiity, not only m Ireipient attend ance upon religious services and in a cessation of all amusements and recreations, but in abstinence from food. In luona.-tei les. particiilaily. the bust was a i eality. The inmates abstained liom animal food, and partook of very little food of any kind befoie .-un.-er. One meal a day was the rule lor Lent, but it. was relaxed for Sunday. It was forbidden to mairy. to celebrate birthdays, to perfonn' plays, or to engage in any festivities during the Lenten sea.-on. Good Christians were and they still are. in most churches which keep Lent expected to go to a church service every day. and to be more liberal m their charitiesthan at other seasons. Some of these regulations have been partially relaxed in modern times. Physical necessity has re quired that laboring men and wo men .-hall be. to sonic extent, exempted from the obligation to fa.-'. While the rule- for people generally, as laid down by the Ro man Catholic authorities, are -till severe, they are by no means so difficult of observance as they once were.

Edith Sheiman was a long time recovering from the terrible ordeal through which she '.ad gone. It in i v be doubted v. bet her any ie iii.de ever had a n iriower scape fimil a fearful death. She was borne to he cottage of Dudley's widowed mother, where eveiy at tention wa- bestowed upon her. In the afternoon sue had .-o far ' revived as to .-it up and eonvei-o. Dudley carefully avoided leli-iiing to the cloud that had come between them, and only inquired as to her condition of body; but toward night, when Mr. Spargin. perfumed, and as polite as ever, called to pay his lespeets, then Edith flashed up. "Ned." said she, drive that man away, so that he wil! never show ids face to me again." Dudley was glad enough to do it. Taking the dapper young gent leman by the collar, he wheeled him about, and then and there indicted such a chastisement upon the thunder ' struck young fop that, baflled. cha ; grmed, and enraged, be left ltiver ' ton as fast as his horse could carry . him. and was never seen there; again. ! When Dudley returned to the: room and informed Edith of what ; he had done, she laughed, and a moment later burst into tears. ' Are you sorry!"' he asked, feel ing something ol his old re-ent- ! nienr. 1 "Yes; sorry that you didn't pun ish him more than yam did. Have; you seen father.'" 'Yes: he has been here twice.1 and seeing that you were all right, has gone off to attend to his lum her. Rut what meant those tears just now.'" inquired the lumberman,, with no little curiosity. It was a long time before Edifh would tell: but gradually it came out. She never had fancied Mr. Spar- : gin at all, and only treated him with politeness to please her lather: but when Dudley called mi her. fretlui and unreasonable as a child, siie concluded to puni-h him for his-iooii.-huess, and she left him a vic tim to all the pangs of jeahui-v. when, in reality, she never permit ted Mr. Spargin so much as to take her hand, much less to kiss her. On the night of tire fre.-he! In had called: and becoming alarmed at the increasing river, he resoh , d to remain all night. Mr. Sherman had gone up the Aroostook to look alter his rafts, so that she had the benefit of his com- ' pany. She was so fiightened by the, roaiing waters, which long before morning filled the lower part of t he cabin, that she could not sleep. dust at day light she felt the hoii.-e moving. With a scream of terror, J Mr. Spargin sprang out of the house. ! seized a small boat near the door,, and by skillful rowing managed to. reach a pi, ice of safety, thinking and cai ing nothing for her. And this lit tie exidanat ion cleared . away the cloud that had gathered in their sky, and henceforward the (-muse of true love ran smooth, and all went iiieriv as several marriage bells.
