A WONDERFUL ESCA PIN letter from
g. A. RanIett, Jr. mast or cf their ship Sur

and lust received hy Niessrs. a. y. Low &
Brother. in New Y York, Cccuts story OF escape
FROM apparently certain death at sea, scarcely
less strange than the bol acst of Captain Marry
ats or Of Charles Rcade's Inventions. The
captain writes:
AT halt past twelve, midnight OF January

,Joy, small boy belonging to Nantucket, tell
from the weather quarter Of the yard overheard,
met clearing the weather mizzen channels but
striking heavily on orr OF the boat davit chains.
Il saw him fall, but did not have theremot-
ost idea that We could save him, not only Tor
the reason that the night was very dark and
stormy. with heavy sea running, but because
+ sunnosed he was severely Injured by his fall,
and encountered l,y his ciot ing, he would
sink Immediately :,
However, | called all hands, shortened sail,
wore ship around on the port tack, and stood
ON for about fifteen minutes, when some OF the
men forward IT, ought they heard cry. Short

as VIC were when he went overheard, and, as
the ship clrhe up to the "lnu, w al heafu
him CRYING ont on our weather how. Coming

The CHIGNoN.-The hair just now is the
most important part Of the bonnet, if VIC uu-
dersand BY that term covering for the head.
The ''Chate!aine' braids, which are the
latest style OF chignon, have had great sue
cess. and are now worn almost universally for
every day and upon ordinary occasions.
In tul dress they are mixed or mounted
with a profusion of curls, generally TWO or
three shades lighter than the wearer's own
hair; and q switch is braided and forms q
coronet i'll front OF the head The trihing
amount OF the wearers hair seen in front is
either crimped or arranged in short curls, fall.
ing upon the forehead.
The mass OF true and false hair gives such a
remarkable appearance to the head that it is
no wonder it's absence makes person look ex-
ceedingIy "plain'' and old fashioned Its alb
Surdlty can DE best realized by trying 10 ina
CINE it in conjunction with theMadonna or some
one OF the natural ideals of womanhood repre-
sented by the masters in painting or scul lpturc.
These ideals have, to be sure little in common
with the practical indiVidualiZed spirit OF our
day but they invest the subject with the dig.
nifty of a true sentimental noble purpose
neither Of which could be perceived even if it
existed behind our modern trippery.
The popular Chatelaine "braids' cost from
eight to twelve dollars each. They are made
OF small quantity OF Two 2O-lnch hair braided
over puffs or rolls OF wool or waste real hair.
When the rolls are OF wool the braids are cheap
er, sometimes as low as s., but the braids are
much heavier, and very hot and disagreeabie to
wear. A person who has great deal of nutu-
raj hair can arrange it in brads across the
front. otherwise switch will be required, which
costs from Slj to $50, according to length and
weight the rare shades oil gold, brown,
chestnut and auburn being almost double the
price OF dark brown or black hair

BELIEVER IN CHRISTIANITY
His Christianity Is substance, a real thing. Tho
radl al believes In Jesus, not IN the Christ but in
Jesus, as on the whole the highest manifestation OF
God. In no human form DO we see so much
OF the creed, OF the Church. OF the New Testament.
The radical believers in the New Testament put
words into lis mouth no such human soul 6nds
accord with. That divine soul was here is plain.
Everything attests him as one OF Gods brightest
manifestations , Tney do NOT bow to HIM; they do
do not accept Him as mediator redeemer Think.
ing thus OF Jesus the radicals thought instantly
lies TO hii brothers, Instead or fixing his gaze on
Jesus as divine he turns his eyes upon the people

the speaker portrayed the effects upon different
individuals ftnis belief In Jesus and then spoke OF
the radicals
BELIEVING IN IMMoRrALrrY * ,.-s
This belief was not based on the teachings OF
Jesus, or because saints and prophets taught iJ;
but because the religious faith asseverates It. While
Plato and grandest souls like Socrates, believe it
for certainty the meanest SOUL the grovelling and
lieves in immortality as q boon, Rift. a vision
The rational soul believes IN future world as the
place TO finish his education. lie spoke next OF the

BELIEF IN THE BIBLE.
