How to Dress Stout Girls.

It is suggested by various fashion
writer's to mothers planning how to dress
their little girls who are little only in
years, having acquired, as many girls
of from to ID years do acquire, an al
together redundant avoirdupois, that
any style which does not outline the
waist line adds to the slender effect. 1t
may be said in passing that more than
stout girls may make note of this. A
writer in the New York Times says:
The frock which falls from yoke or

This style Of curtain is admirably
adapted for halls, where one or two can
be used, according as the width Of the
hall dictates, An exceedingly pretty
effect is got in a comparatively narrow
hall with staircase beyond by having
one curtain fixed, say, a distance Of three
or four feet behind the other, the one
draped to right, the other to left.

A CARD OF THANKS.

desire to express through the columns of the AaE- HERALD my heart-felt grati- tude to the good neighbors and citizens generally who so freely came to the rescue yesterday and rendered valuable aid in re-. moving the furniture from my residence, which was discovered to be in flames.
 To the chief and members of the Birming- ham fire department I am under especial obligations for their promp pt response to the alarm sent ins from box 12. AS is usnal with them, they came fast, and made gall lant and successful fight, and but for their timely and efficient services the loss sus- tained by myself and family would have been very great.
 Only those who have undergone the same experience can feel how grateful myself and family are, and words are inadequate to ex- press our feelings. F. CAHEEN,

 ings-Dr. Morris' Sermon.

The revival services that are being held prior to the Moody meetings are becoming more interesting as the time approaches for this noted evangelist to preach his first sermon.
 sEyery night the crowds that attend these sservices are becoming larger and larger.
 The singing, under the direction of Pro- lessor Towner, is really becoming interest ing, and the choir is increasing in number daily. S.. u Last night a piano, presided over by Miss Clayton Dagg, and cornet used by MT. Ed P. Williams, were added to the musical part of the service. 1.-The services opened last night with praise service, attended by a large congre- ! gation.
 l Professor Towner followed with solo, ssCling to the Bible, My Boy," which was Dr. Handley then led the congregation in a short and impressive prayer.
 Dr. Morris' text for the evening was taken from Acts, ii, 34.
 The minister began by stating that two of the worst things in the world are fire and the tongue; that fire in short while could destroy earnings of a decade, while one single slip of the tongue might ruin the reputation of man and forever blight his life.
 The point that the speaker wanted to show was that fire in a spiritual sense was needed to purify the church people of to- day and raise them to higher plane of life.
 He argued that there are two times in life when a man feels the loss of not wit messing for Christ, the first being when the person approaches death, and the sec- ond when they shall stand before the judg- ment bar of God.
 He appealed to the church people to lead a higher fife and be purified by this higher 6re.
 F. His sermon, thoughishort, was full of life and truths that stirred up the congregation which greeted him.
 His sermon was indeed so excellent that he received many congratulations.
 Professor Towner, in an interview with an AGE HERALD reporter, stated last night that MT. Moody would not preach in any southern city except Birmingham, and for only ten days here.
 He has other engagements In the north and is compelled to fill them, and owing to these engagements it will be utterly impos- sible to entertain any invitations to preach elsewhere.
 This afternoon at the Highland Presby- terian church a prayermeeting will be held for the benefit of all wLo wish to attend and to awaken interest in the coming meet- ings.
 pr. G. T. Stainback will preach at the wigwam tonight.
