Garnet jewelry is all the rage in Paris.
Brown cureoroy walking sacques are

Black silk redingotes, worn over a vel

French calicoes are imported this

They make very pretty morning dresses.
Japanese silks, despite the many new
dress materials, retain their popularity,
especially for evening toilets.
Reversible Elizabethan ruffles are the
latest. They are worn with any cos

silk.
Work baskets and bird cages combined
are new. They are made Of willow, the
cage hanging from an arch over the bas-

The modern bridal boquet is small

WELCOME HOME!

II is q real pleasure TO meet again SO
many friends and familiar faces upon
the streets. The absentees are all vel
coined back to their old places, and it
makes Memphis seem hOme-like to see
them here. We feel treasured and
strengthened at heart to take their warm,
strong hands and look in their broad,
cheerful faces so full Of sympathy and
interest and hope. There is work fer all
TO do; and it must be done, i at all, in
harmony As community, We are too
weak to be much divided in local enter
prises, politics or social polity. If we
had any enemies they have heaped Goals
of FIRE on our heads by acts of kindness in
the hour of helpless calamity, and after
this we will be more humanized, pre-
iudices will give place to respect, and
we will acknowledge that touch of
nature makes the whole world Of kin
While feeling deeply a sense OF graft
tude to the people of the whole country,
it is imposslble to forget that a stronger
brotherhood than ever should exist here
after at home. All sects. parties and
natioualites have worked together in
the common cause; side by side they
have encouraged the convalescent, re-
lieved the sick and soothed the dying
Suffering is a great leveller, as well as
death. But the battle is over. The
dead are buried, the wounded are recov
ering, and the widows and orphans now
demand our care. Much else remains
to be done which need not be recited
now. Those who felt called to remain
at the front need respite, and will now
gladly retire in favor Of others, fresh
and strong from rural retreats, whittier
they properly sought safety, and in
doing so reduced the list Of mortality
Every man cannot 90 into battle, nor
should everyone remain to face an epi-
demical scourge, when their pres
ence only adds to the common ruin
Many of the absentees have been liberal
in their contributions and active in their
efforts to raise means abroad, and all
are doubtless ready and willing to do
their part now. Those who have been
away happily escaped the scenes of dis
tress and gloom which cast their dark
shadows across the paths Of men for the
past seven weeks. They saw nothing Of
the glazed eye and parched lips Of the
dying, the terror of the living, and the
hasty funerals without mourners or pail
bearers. They may thank God for this,
and we pray to be spared from such
dread realities in future. The very
memory we would desire to erase as a
troubled dream. Our returning friends
give comfort and good cheer by their
presence, and will doubtless be ready TO
join in any and every measure promo
tive of the general welfare. Many sac.
rifees Of plans, ease and pride are yet
to be made for the common good by
those who do not intend to sel6shly run
