practical teachings Of Christ.

One of the practical teachings of
Christ is that His followers abe given
to hospitality" Now, Christian hos.
rltality is not only the entertainment
OF those personal friends of ours who
are congenial and delightful to us per.
soaally and for themselves alone: but
the glad and cheerful entertainment of
servants and disciples of Christ for His
sake. as they may have need and we
opportunity. The story of the good
woman who prevailed with her husband
to build the chamber on the wall for
the entertainment of the prophet
though he was not a popular man at
the time, and the many words Of
Christ concerning receiving a disciple
or prophet in the name of a prophet
and disciple, ought to start new
an OF thought in the minds of those
OF US who have neglected this Gift
we w"':.a humbly suggest to our read
efs 10 think over this matter, and the
next time an opportunity comes to
them to extend hospitality to one an
other in the name Of Christ embrace y
heartily, and show forth the LOVING
kindness OF that Lord Who does not for.

H0,.dship.

Hardship is the real blessing of life
when properly measured aud properly
received. All children should have "a
hard time of it," under proper regula-
ton. The children of this day are be-
ing ruined. They are being confec-
toned and coddled to death. By the
time they are fifteen years old they have
seen everything; there is nothing more
to be seen; they have travelled over
the picture galleries of Europe; they
have heard all the great speakers, mu-
sicians, and others; they have seen all
the great sights; they are overpowered
with WEAKNESS. This should not be SO;
but it must continue to be SO I'M
til parents see the reality of the case.
Five years in the work-house, the ex-
penses being discharged by the par
ents, from five years of age to ten,
would make men of tie children. How
they would then enjoy daisies, butter
cups, little birds, half days rollick-
ing freedom in the green meadow.
How pleased they would be with any
occasional dainty found upon the table!
How doubly valuable the sweet kiss
But we will not have it SO. Hence, the
children are brought up to be pests tc
themselves and nuisances to the public.
God, however, takes the matter into
His own hands, and He graciously sends
famine and need and difficulty, sickness
and death, and thousand black
teachers down into His great public
school, to show men the real charm Of
life, and bring to bear upon them the
most sacred and ennobling impulse
which can inspire and sanctify their in
dustry.-Dr. Joseph PARKER.

Early in the season it was a tossup
which was to be prime favorite, hello
trope or green. It has been decided by
the dressers themselves, and green we
must announce as a whole neck's length
ahead in the race.
Manufacturers have produced so many
delightful and novel shades of it in
their fabrics for summer that its sue
cess will probabably be more than tran
STORY. It remained, however, for that
idolized artistic, Modjeska, to give the
finishing touch to its popularity. She
few in the face of tradition, and at the
Wallack testimonial performance OF
"Hamlet," where she played Ophelia,
went mad in a gown of sage green.
No one ever heard tell of a mad
scene being enacted in anything but a
white garment, either on the dramatic
OF operate stage. Nevertheless, that
audience of four thousand people were
delighted by the innovation.
The desire for this color has also
been increased by the great inclination
toward artistic and historical costum.

picturesque Watteaus demand it, and

Suede kid complete this most striking

It has come to be that no woman who
pays any attention to nicely of costum-
ing details will neglect possessing one
OF two pair of shoes other than black.
These are most often seen in low-cut
styles, when, if Worn on the street, they
are supplemented by snugly buttoned
cloth overgaiters. The principal colors
in leather seen are red and the Suede
browns.
Loose blouses are becoming extreme
ly in vogue. They are worn in washing
materials and thin woolens, and are al
ways made over tight fitted Innings.
They are always arranged for belt,
although sometimes it only shows in

the back, the front fullness hanging
loose, with the edges turned under to
the waist beneath. The arrangement
of the belt shown here is most becom-
ing to full, feshy figures, but moro
slender ladies may add to their more
dressy effect by wearing broad, soft
sashes of material the same as the
blouse.
The first blouse shown is in pale
blue dotted chaille, the fullness of the
fronts being held in place by shocking,
that pretty, old-fashioned needle work.
The second, of China silk, which laun-
dries beautifully, has this fullness laid
in fine tucks several inches down from
the standing collar.
Foreign exchanges tell us these
blouse bodices are particular favorites
for young ladies' evening dresses, both
in France and England. In which
cases, killed skirts of gauze, with short
paniers on each side, are worn; gar
lands Of open flowers passing around
the shoulder are brought down and
mingled with the sash, which is then
always worn. Laces and crepe de chine
and other handsome fabrics are also
utilized for these dancing or evening
dresses for gay young ladies.
