Sir Edwin Arnold's Religious Belief.

Sir Edwin ArnOld's Religious Belief.
Sir Edwin Arnold does not seem to be
fully satisfied with his long-cheristfed
faith in agnosticism. During bis recent
visit to Chicago, when asked to define
his personal religious belief, he said:
"Pll give you one point in it. l be-
lieve in soul Immortality. I am an
sgnostic only in the meaning Of the
word. don't know what comes after
death, any more than an unborn child
knows about the quotations of corn on
the board of trade, but | believe there is
post norton existence, even If l can
not speak from actual knowledge Of it..
Now am not a visionary man. l am a
chemist, a specialist, an anatomist; and
l declare that the studies Of materialism
through these means of research have
only strengthened my belief in soul i'm
mortality. 60 as far as you will in
scientific delving, invariably you come to
point where you must stop-the point
where materialism ends, and where the
subtle, impalpable, blind grasp in fu'
turity is attempted. 1t is impossible te
comprehend soul truth through materia
listic agencies. 1t requires the exercise O
the soul functions and then one believes
The very failure Of materialism to satisfy

In the country the farmer is now sup
piled with blowing and reaping ma
chimes, binders and grain sewers. A
man with a team of horses or yoke OF
oxen did good work once in blowing five
acres of soil in two days. Now the three
gang or double furrow pillow does the
same amount of work in one day. The
steam plow has in some cases superseded
the double plow, aud made it possible
for one man to do in one day what he
formerly did in thirty days, or, in Other
words, one man plows for thirty.
Once the farmer sowed the seed while
walking from side to side across the

placed in a hopper on wheels, child

Some Simple Dress STYLES.

One often has breadths of black cloth
or silk put away; these may be used this
winter to advantage, either made into a
skirt to be worn with a bright Colored
coat, or just the opposite, made into a
coat to be worn with another skirt. The
jacket shapes for basqueS is still most
prevalent, those for street suits being in
cutaway or smoking jacket style: those
for indoors in Louis XIV and XVI.
There is more and more of tendency to
do Away entirely with the foundation
skirt, many of the winter woolens hav-
ing been lined throughout instead.
When light fabrics are mounted on
foundation they are not tackled at all to
it, so the outside can be lifted, leaving
the foundation, which is shorter, and
finished nicely with knife plating or
crossway band. The polOnaise grows in
favor for day suits, while the princess.
or some modification of the princess, is
much worn for evening by all ages, ex-
cept the young girl, who looks best in a
half low necked pointed corsage. The
popular full skirt has five breadths at
the foot sloped to three at the top

Persian Lamb in Favor.

Persian lamb is increasing continually
in favor and grace, especially for cloaks.
4 few years ago the dealers had hard
work to convince customers of its beauty
and elegance; now the demand is daily
increasing. Some woman of place and
taste bought a dress on the other side,
with bit of the curly black fur foI
decoration. Some other woman of equal
discernment and wisdom, but who
couldn't buy gowns on the other side
copied the decoration and the spark was
kindled.
The tickle, capricious public fancy was
won and now no fur is more popular foy
demiseason wear and for decorative pur-
poses than this. Russian sable is re-
moved by its great cost and elegance
alone from Outranking seal in favor. 1t
Is the decoration par excellence for seal
garments, for Innings and collars, for
mantles and capes, to all who can afford
it. \ new "manteau de voyage" is of

velvet is inserted to form the back, and
the collar and bottom of the cloak are
trimmed with gray fur.-Chicago News.

DEAR SIR:-After using your Arkan-

every respect and much easier con-

BANKING Law CASE DISMISSED.
The Prosecution Thinks 1t Useless to
Continue.


The case of State vs. Breidenthal
was dismissed this afternoon by the
attorneys for the prosecution. Judge
Humphrey ruled on the questions COM
ing mp that the mere fact of receiving
deposits in the course of business did
not necessarily constitute II banking
business and that it must be ascertaine d
whether 1t was deposited as in bank.
Mr. Breidenthal on the stand testified
that the money was deposited only by
colonists or intending colonists of
Topolobampo and the Sinaloa com
pany's receipt there was simply an
accommodation for safety and trans
mission.
The attorneys for the State concluded
at the end Of his testimony that they
had no case and agreed to dismissal
Judge Humphrey then gave a lengthy
address showing the Justice of his
ruling.
The case simply settled an unsolved
problem never before decided regarding
