1t Is fashionable nowadays to be I'M
fashionable.
Byzantine models are sought for in
fancy jewelry.
Braids. galloons, and strings of big
beads are the favorite dress trimmings.
Skirts, TUNES, and polonaises are all
made with pleats or gathers at the

Two fabrics are generally used In
the small mantelets and visites now
so much worn.
Byron collars of jet beaded passe-
menterie are worn on black silk dress
es with cuffs to match.
Russian cross-stitch embroidery on
red and blue is very effective in BATHS
to and other thin fabrics.
Bengaline is fine quality of nuns
veilings, and is especially adapted for
Summer dresses for young girls.

mother of pearl in Chinese designs.
Hats are very high, and the trim
mings Of loops Of ribbon, feathers and
aigrettes are so arranged as to increase
the apparent height.
Gallons that have fine beads drop

Profit in Fruit Raising.

When fruit sells too low for profit
it is time to preserve it and reap
treble gains. The quickest and cheap
est ways Of keeping fruit will be
found most profitable, and are the
only ways in which grower can
work off crop in time to save it.
Dried fruit is easily handled, and is
coming back into favor with the
knowing housekeepers, who recognize
good things and know how they
should be cooked. No expense for
evaporators is necessary. l long
since made up my mind that cvapo-
rated fruit is inferior to sun-dried in
flavor, and talking with old dealers in
family stores find they prefer the sun
dried for their own use. The best
cook l ever knew said the same, and
there is reason for it. The sun ripens
and develops sugar and flavor in cut
fruit dried in its rays. To have nice
quality Of dried fruit, select firm nice
ripe specimens, wipe clean, pare and
cut with silver knives, as steel turns
them black on the edges, and hurry
into the sun as fast as they can be
prepared.
The cheapest and best way of dry
ing fruit is to lay it on lengths of
cheese-cloth, suspended on fran e
out of doors, in full sun. with white
mosquito netting over to keep off
Shreds and insects. This allows the
air to reach both sides of the fruit at
once, and when you want to turn it,
the whole can be swung over on an
other cloth, leaving the first ready for
new batch. Apples should be cored.

should not be pared, for the richest

After the Honeymoon.

Young married people are surprised
when they discover that the honey
moon is not entirely composed of
honey. Even the first year of married
life is not always the happiest, though
it ought always to be very happy.
Living together happily is an art
which the most affectionate couple can
aot ordinarily learn in a year. Each has
to make some unpleasant discoveries
and to overcome some fixed inclina-
tions. True happiness begins when
these discoveries have been made, and
each is thoroughly resolved to make
the other as happy as possible for all
time.
Marriage is sometimes said to be the
door that leads deluded mortals back
TO earth; but this need not and ought
not to be the case. Certainly love
may end with the honeymoon if people
marry to crafty "gunpowder pas
sion," or for the sake of mere outward
beauty, which is like glass soop
broke. OF course the enthusiastic
tempestuous love of counting days will
not as a rule survive marriage. A
married couple soon get to feel to.

A Paris letter in CoSselPs Magazine
says: The new ribbons and vast
number of gauzes have been brought
out in style of medieval coloring
which is most startling innovation,
quite different from anything we have
had in our generation. The ground
work is generally stone; on this are
thrown medieval patterns in green,
yellow, blue eight and dark, and
what is now called 'terre," closely
allied to terra-cotta; gold thread
runs through the material; sometimes
conventional flower is printed upon
it. The ribbons display borders in
which medieval shields and many
very heraldic-looking devices are
printed, with predominating gold
element in them. Neither the
materials by the yard nor the ribbons
are cheap; some Of them cost over a
pound yard.
This fabric is the chief novelty in
this years millinery. Many of the
Byzantine scarfs have been prepared
for hats; scarcely one of the new hats
is to be seen without them. Narrow
ribbons in bows are a great deal worn,
and MORE ribbons. Gauze ribbons,
with and without satin stripes, have
come in again, much as our grand
mothers wore them. The soft corded
make of silk, as in the "faille fran
caise," is applied to ribbons. There i;

THE SCHEME OF SALVATION.
Miss Smileys Talk on the Subject of 'tFaith"
at Christ Church.

at Christ Church.
Christ Church was filled yesterday afternoon,
on the occasion of the first of series of Bible
readings by Miss Sarah f. Smiley, who has been
engaged to conduct a number of these throughout
the diocese of Indiana, by Bishop Knickerbocker.
She chose for her subject Faith" and, in the
course of an hours talk made some suggestions
that were new to many, if not most of her hear
ers Faith she declared to be no act on ones
part in the scheme of salvation, but the previous
gift of God. Belief, which all are required to
possess and exert is simply obedience,
and, under the original, is as often
translated obedience as belief. She warned
strongly against the peril of trusting ones hope
of salvation on faith when obedience is what is
necessary to secure il. Justification by faith
she explained to be an ordering Of lives, putting
them in line by faith.
These readings will be continued every night
until and including Thursday at 7:30 o'clock,
supplemented by meeting for prayer at 4:30
o'clock, at the conclusion of which meetings
Miss Smiley will be pleased to meet cordially,
ali who desire further calculation of thoughts
contained in the readings. Tonight she will
speak upon 'Sonsnip or Adoption"
