"a thing of beauty is Joy forever"
SO thought, no doubt, those members of
Trinity Reformed Church of this place on
last Sunday morning, as they entered the
main audience room, and beheld the i'm
provement that had been made. The Con-
sistory of the church had engaged Mr..
John Barnhardt, the fresco.painter, to re-
fresco the space in the rear of the pulpit.
He completed his work on Saturday, and
it was seen in all Its beauty on Sunday
morning last, No description of pen can
do it justice. 1t must be seen to be appre-
ciated, and any one having taste for
church decorative art would do well to
pay the church visit, and see this really
meritorious piece of workmanship.

the highest cost, 81 cents a
yard. You need not know the
makers; call them Wanamakey's,
for we control this market on
them.
This is the hub of the Sateen
trade. You may get a notion
from the fact that the 10000
yards in store to-day are only
one-fourth of a single order.
And then other orders on both
sides of the sea. Watch the
season and you will know how
great they are.
The first peep at the styles

three plain shades. Gobelins

rainbows divided and multiplied.

trailing vines, stripes with polka
dots dancing all about, stripes
holding up plaids plaids with
over-plaids ; palm patterns, and
