eighteen years in the penitentiary. two
wanted lighter punishment, aud four
were for acquittal One of those who
stood for verdict of murder in the
first degree is said not to have given in
until ten minues before the result was
announced in the court room.
Mr. Hill Carter, Of counsel for the de-
PENDANT. made motion to set the YER
diet aside, as contrary to the law and
evidence in the case. This was over
ruled. Mr. Carter then stated that he
would file bill of exceptions. and the
Court instructed him to do SO as soon
as possible.
Immediately Mrs. McNamee rushed
into the courtroom and, throwing her
arms around her husbands neck, burst
into bitter sobs. crying, 20, my darling

MUSLIN WEAR Dept.

MUVAhtV ~ 6HAk DAa Ia
There are many Ladies who can
never bring themselves to believe that
ready-made Underwear can be salts
factory.
THIS IS A FALLACY
They think it necessary to select
their own favorite muslin, choose en-
broidery, and then trouble themselves
with the making.
THIS IS A MISTAKE
To these Ladies we would say: Our
muslins are selected by experts, who
test their qualities as to bleach, finish
and service. Embroideries used must
combine quality, durability, newness
and daintiness of effect in the ense mble.
CAN YOU DO MORE?
The make up of our muslin wear is
of the Home Made Order" except
that skilled artisans, capable of pro-
ducing the artisticalIy arranged article
with the advantage Of custom finish,
are employed, who give their work
mechanically perfect appearance, such
as is almost impossible to find in gar
ments made within the family circle.
COMPARISON REQUESTED
OUR LADIES NJGHTGoWNs,
SKIRTS, UNDERSKIRTS, CORSET
COVERS, DRAWERS and OTHER
MUSLIN WEAR, as a whole, are
worthy an examination, not alone for
their perfection of detail in workman

price, which in all cases represent
better value than is offered by any
New York house.
OTHER PEOPLE SAY so
~ Mothers will be wise to see our
assol tnlent devoted to INFANTS and
MISSES, as we carry here, as in the

FAREWELL ADDRESS
REV. j. E. ADAMS TO THE METHo-
DIST CONGREGATION

The Speaker Reviews the Church's His
tory During His Five Years Pastorate,
and Refers to tho Immense Amount OF
Work Incidental to a Large Member
ship.
AT the Methodist Church, last Sunday
morning, the pastor, Rev. J. E. Adams,
after a service of five years, addressed
the congregation for the last time in his
Official capacity.
Mr.. Adams had chosen as his text,
Acts 20:2S: 'sTake heed, therefore, unto
yourselves, and to all the flock over the
which the Holy Ghost hath made you
owe ,seers, to feed the church Of God,
which he hath purchased with his own
Sspod. Z 9a n
I he call to Christian disciplesfltp is al
Ways the call to self surrender in favor
Of Christ. When Christ called Peter and
Andrew and James and John and Mat
thew, that call involved the leaving of
their business and the literal following
of Christ during his earthly ministry.
When Christ called that young man in
the Gospel to whom he said, '.One thing
thou lackest, go sell all that thou hast
and give to the poor and come and follow
me, that was a call to surrender his
wealth not only in spirit, but perhaps
also in fact It meant that he should
give himself and all that he had unre-
servedly to Christ When Christ called
that young man to whom he said, g Re
turn into thine house and unto thine
kindred, and show what great things
God hath done for thee" Christ didn't
require that he should separate himself

A FEW NEW IDEAS.
The Latest Fads and Fancies of the Fair
Sex.

The Latest Fads and Fancies of the Fair
Sex.
You've no idea what relaxation is
afforded the whole nervous system by
the following simple remedy:
When you feel completely tired out
in body and mind, lie down in a dark
ened room, smooth, silk handkerchief
drawn lightly around your head across
the eyes. Danish all thought and re-
main perfectly still, on the back, the
arms lying heavily at the sides.
You've no idea how pretty the close
velvet collar called the continental
looks ON thin neck when an evening
gown is worn. 1t serves the purpose of
the high pearl collarette wcrn by the
Princess of Wales. which is said to cover
a scar, and though so much cheaper is
almost as effective.
You've no idea, unless you talk with
one OF the saleswomen in the big shops,
how much ermine is worn this season
on opera cloaks, ON carriage boots, en-
dressing gowns. 1t is the newest thing
in furs, and many grandnother's
cloak has been renovated to do duty on
parade.
You've no idea how perfectly natural
and simple the great Mile. Calve is.
Her Carmen and Santuzza draw thou-
sands to the opera house far beyond the
seating capacity of that enormous place
She is the rage. Yet friend who
knows her tells me that she is still as
unspoied and impulsive as a child, de-
lights in long walks in Central park,
drinks milk, loves babies and hasn't
fad 10 her back.
You've no idea how costly miniatures
are. Lillian Russell has had six made
of herself, and they cost from $500 to
$500 apiece. Marie Tempest has had
almost as many.
You've no idea how the massage cure
is spreading among women. 1t takes
the place of exercise these cold, dark
days. A masseuse whose hands are
strong as steel and soft as velvet will
spend an hour kneading every muscle
of the body until the blood stings with
life, and the charge is So. 1t seems ex-
pensive, but it isn't, for often it takes
the place of medicine and doctor bills.
You've no idea how women rouge
nowadays until you see the carmino
take on a purple itope in the bleak winds
/ You 'Ye no idea how well brilliant
red looks on q pale blond. 1t is not
usually supposed to be her color.
You've no idea how white bran wa
ter will mako the hands if applied ev-
cry night for a week.

from his business or from the ordinary
affairs Of life, but rather enioined that
he should go on with them. He did re-
quire that the young man should take
Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior and
that heneeforth the will of Christ should
be always supreme.
The demand in the gospel upon Christ's
dsssses is the ttcr1re,rItl of
1t is the requirement that the flesh shall
be made subject to the spirit. 1t is the
demand that thelower part of our nature
shall be made tributary to the higher. It
is the demand that we shall turn away
from pleasing ourselves, from trying to
satisfy our selfish aims, and that ou1
object shall be to please Christ and serve
him.
The natural and appropriate sphere
for the exercise of Christian discipleship
is the church. Christ organized the
church when he was here on earth and
he intended it to be the fold into which
his followers should be gathered. He
intended it to be permanent and power
full, for he declared in his word, and his
WORD will always stand, that ''even the
gates. of hell should not prevail against
It's
There are men who give themselves to
certain kinds Of good work who do not
come into the church. They seem to
have the idea that the church is not good
enough for them. l want to say that
they are utterly mistaken. They are
simply not able to stand and work with
other men, and qualities Of that kind are
not evidence of wisdom and power.
There are some, some even in our own
church, who cannot work according to
regular methods, as Lorenzo Dow, III
the early history of the Methodist Church,
who never could be kept within the
bounds Of regular conference work; and
as Bishop Taylor, who has done his work
according to methods of his own in South
America, in India and in Africa. Some
may work better in societies and other
organizations than in the church, but In
sist upon this, that the regular appointed
place and sphere Of Christian discipleship
is the Christian church. That church
exists as an army, i'll sections; it has sew
eral divisions forming one grand body
the Presbyterian, the Methodist and the
Baptist. The Christian disciple should
determine his place by his own taste and
his own circumstances, and then, having
determined it, he should take his stand
and work for Christ in the church. I dc
not think I emphasize this matter toe
strongly. Sometimes men get up substi-
tutes for the church, but whether they
name as a substitute for the church some
secular brotherhood or some organization
that goes out along special lines of aggres-
sive Christian work, whenever the idea
is to substitute this for the church, the
speaker who advocates that position
is on very dangerous ground. Beware
of the idea; the chances are it will des-
troy your Christian character before you
get through. And even if any success
attends an idea Of this kind, still it is
