Apollo smiled on humanity the early part o th day yesterday and deigned to remember that It waa Easter. Many a matron donned her Easter , bonnet, which sh had Scanned for two, day with doubting sighs, and many girls put on their llsht frocks and trlnned contentedly to Sunday school ; and church. For Phoebus had decided to lend th light of hi countenance to Easter Sunday though he had 'hidden it for two davs previous in dark storm elouds. It mattered not so much that he ex f erienced a whimsical change of mind n th afternoon.
