Church.
The strawberry festival given by the ladies
Of the new Universalist church on the corner
of Thirteenth and L streets northwest, last
evening, was very successfully conducted.
The vestry room was thronged with people
ell through the evening, and q handsome
amount was realized. The tables, literally
supplied with choice delicacies, were in
charge of the following ladies:
No. /. Mrs. Mary Allyn and Miss w. l..
Smith, assisted by the Misses Hannah and
George Noyes and Eva Campbell.
No. 2. Mrs R. T. Dimmick, assisted by the
Misses EVA Gould, and Lille Mcconnell
No. 2. Mrs. Sherwood, assisted by the Misses
Julian and Willard.
No. a. Mrs. Hamilton and Mrs. French, as
sisted by the Misses Bette French and Han
nah Noyes.
1t was quite an enjoyable affair, and the
attendants were required to keep the tables
for hours at full running capacity. Anon 6
those present were:
Rev. Alexander Kent pastor Of the church, and
lady; Rev. DR.. W. w. Currie, wife, and daugh-

Fashionable White Toilets.
Chicago Times.

The hand soonest white dresses are either
almost entirely composed Of lace, or else are
all of the new open-work embroideries, with
barely enough plain material to hold them to-
gether. Our best dressmakers make the
basques, cut from embroidery by tho yard,
with the seams cut close and button-holcd
over on the wrong side. The embroidery
edaing the basque is Joined on in tho same
manner, and great care is taken to match tho
figures 30 that the effect is given of basque
formed OF q single piece of needlework. Tho
apron overdress Is of the solid embroidery,
and the skirt is covered with flowers TO match.
Very elegant dresses are of fine null, or
sheer nainsook, almost covered with oriental
lace frills, and with draperies of oriental
lace net. Pompadour lace, the new lace with
raised flowers, is very beautiful for such
dresses. Embroidered batiste, with Irish
point or guipure patterns in wide borders for
draperies and basque and deep hounces to
match, are again imported and find great
favor with ladies who can afford them. Rib
bons are used in profusion, both in many
bows of narrow ribbon and broad sashes.
The most fashionable of the white toilets
worn this summer, instead of being relieved
by the usual colors of rose-color, blue, or
mauve, will be enlivened by the newer shades
of French terra-cotta, tea-rose, shrimp-pink,
and the like, and leading toilet will be one
of white nuns yelling, or vigogne with
broad sash and other satin ribbon trimmings
of pale primrose yellow, with primroses in

The Proper Position for Sleeping.

A German, Baron Reichenbach, has oc-
cupied many years in studying the art of bed
making, or rather bed placing and maintains
that improperly placed beds will shorten a
mans life. He says: Ifa mere magnet ex-
ercises an influence on sensitive persons, the
earth's magnetism must certainly make itself
felt on the nervous life of man. In whatever
hemisphere you may bo always sleep with
your feet to the equator, and let your body
lie "true as aneedle to the pole" Tho proper
direction of the body is of the utmost Inn
portance for the proper circulation of the
blood, and many disturbances in the organ
isms have been cured by simply placing the
bolster in different point of the compass from
that it had occupied. Let such as have
hitherto been in the habit of sleeping with
their heads where their feet ought to be,
take to heart tho example of the late DIR.
Fischwester of fMadgeburg, who died recently
at the age of 100 years, The most unhealthy y
position, we are told, is when the body lies
due east and west Some observers assure us
that to sleep in such a posture IS tantamount
to committing suicide, and that diseases are
often aggravated by deviations from the
prober posture.
