That We may abound to every
good work.--II Cor tx, 3.
Faith, to begin with, and, after
that good works. The faith must
come first, and then the good works
will follow 'as the night the day." or
as effect follows cause. The man
without faith may do good on i'm
pulse, but the man with faith will do
good on principle.
Faith in what and in whom? Well,
faith that God Is your Father in
very literal and comprehensive sense,
not by way of dreamy fantasy, but
by way of glorious fact; faith that
you are in this world for definite
and easily understood purpose, and
that every one else is here Tor the
same purpose; faith that since q
great many folk have for some
reason-partly from environment,
partly from inherited weakness,
partly from lack of moral energy
gone wrong, and are now in a sad
tangle, God has commissioned you
to do what lies in your power to set
things right; faith that no.honesu
word of encouragement is ever
uttered in vain, and that no kindly
deed OF charity will fail to bear fruit
ut some time and in some way.
You may not be able to work
miracles, but that is no reason for
not doing what you can. The

TIE MILK WILL NOT BOIL OVER.

Philadelphia Record. 1t is a simply
constructed rim, which must tightly fit
the pot in which the milk is to be
boiled. Upon the inside of it is another
rim in which holes are cut even dis
tanccs apart. This pot needs no watch
ing, and if it does boil over no harm can
be done, as the overflow returns to the
pot through the small holes provided in
the rim sufficiently cooled off to pre-
vent it from boiling o'er any more. A
benefit of this system is that milk can
be kept boiling for IL long time, and
thereby sterilized milk, forming nu-
tritious and healthy food for babies, can
be obtained

Mr.. Isaac Newton Phelps Stokes is of
dull-green wool flecl1ed with warm
red here and there. 1t is, Furthermore,
very interesting example of the hesi-
fancy between the reignng styles and
the styles that are expected to reign,
for the skirt is slightly frilled over the
hips, and yet, like the spring skirt and
the summer skirt, it flares toward the
hem. 1t is a fitted basque with point
in front and one behind. Instead of
the soft surplice corsage, without
which dressmaker hardly knows how
to dressmake, it has an elaborate braid
ed yoke in red and green. There are
rather small gigot sleeves, but the real
novelty of the outfit is the jacket, which
is very short, ,close-ftting in the Daclx but
loose and double-breasted in front, with
narrow revers and several rows of
smoky pearl buttons set with gold rims.
Another 'going away dress" this
this time for a very youthful blonde
whose marriage will be one of New
ports sensations in September, is of
shot green and blue cloth with a skirt
that takes less cloth than the modistes
have been using, though it is SO full
over the hips that to get the result
aimed at godet hip panels have been
set in. These panels are fastened down
with pearl buttons, otherwise the skirt
is untrimmed. The waist is a tiny
pointed bodice, with loose front Of
silk shot with green and blue. The
cholIer is straight silk band and the
sleeves are just moderately full, with

But it Is in evening dress that last
century modes will tell to the best ad-
vantage. Large figured satin bro
cades are on the market and the dresses
into which they will be cut are to have
full circular skirts for the proper glori-

calls for a fitted satin bodice cut low

the shoulders with costly lace fchu.
Tailor dresses for autumn wear will
be much buttoned. The latest are of

popularity, and are set on in rows, to

THE HARVEST MOON.

Beyond the hilltops, vague and dim.
Beyond the wide worlds Utmost rim,
Flame sunsets golden bars.
While one by one in Heavens height,
The unseen guardians of tho night
Set their watchfires OF stars.
The fields grow dim and f1dc from sight,
Behind the purple veil OF night,
And all the world Is hid
A boding silence holds in thrall
All sound except the pllin.ive call
or one lone katydid
Then comes o breath of breeze that brings
rustic as of seraphs wings,
Such as the dreamer hears;
And in the east, where day has birth,
just where the heavens touch the earth,
The harvest moon appears.
Fer since the stars-a countless throng-
At morning sang their wordless song.
When time had Just begun,
The harvest moon has come to fill
With joy the soul that BODIED ILL.,
Because of summer gone.
While stars shall glow, while rivers flow.
While winters come as summers go,
While men shall sigh or sing;
While time shall last, while mountains
stand,
Tho harvest moon to every land,
Shall nights Of spiendor bring.

CARE OF THE SKIN.
Painstalsing Care Is Necessary to Remove
Seemingly Trifing Troubles.

PainstaIsing Care Is Necessary to Remove
Seemingly Trifing Troubles.
There are many little skin troubles
which are both persistent and trouble
some, and vex ones very soul by ap-
pearing on the face. A greasy skin
may arise from various causes, but gen
orally from lack of cleanliness or de-
bility of the skin. Only an astringent
has any effect upon it, and very sim
pie, entirely harmless one may be made
from one pint of rosewater, half pint
of vinegar and few drops of essence
of rose. This lotion may be applied
with piece of soft linen or very fine
sponge.
Blackheads are very difficult to get
rid of, and are caused by the clogging
of the pores of the skin by dust or for
eign matter. Alcohol, ninety per cent,
applied by the means of piece of
chamois skin, will give tone to the skin
and remove unsupported dirt and dust,
at the same time stimulating the small
glands and removing, by constant use,
the blackhcads.
Tan and frecllles may be removed by
the use of the following lotion: Two
drachms of powered sal ammoniac,
four fluid drachms of eau de cologne,
one quart of distilled water. Lemon
juice and borax are both very etiica-
cious, and are home remedies.
Many skins will not stand constant
washing, but need to be cleaned after
dusty ride or walk by other means
than soap and water. Lait Virginal is
delicious preparation, and can be
made as follows: One pint of rose,
orange-hower or elder-fower water,
half an ounce of simple tincture of
benzoin, and ten drops of tincture of
myrrh.
After being exposed to harsh or
chilling winds, it is a good plan upon
retiring to rub a quantity of fresh
cream on the face, removing after five
or ten minutes, to be applied again, fol-
lowed by a generous putting of rice

THE WOMAN OF FASHION.
Hints as to Autumn Gowns and
Hats.
New York Designers Are Studying the
Styles of the Days OF Louis XVI.
Smaller Sleeves Are Sure

1t Is almost autumn, and we ask,
even If we get no answer, what are
we going to wear? 1t is simple guess
work as yet, in spite of disserta-
tions from people gifted in the art of
setting forth the unlknowable. Fashion
works along certain lines, and one has
only to follow the trend of her tenden-
cies to get-somewhere, whether she
may or may not follow.
Bearing in mind this principle, it il,

Another model for later wear. when

Another model for later wear, when
the leaves have dropped and the air
gets its autumnal chill, is of black vel
vet with one side close against the face
and the other carelessly crumpled to
suit the bright, irregular features of a
typical American beauty, who almost
always has slightly tip-tilted nose
and saucy chin. Small pink crysan-
themums are pinned inside against the
front hair and coronal of black os-
trich feathers is tied about the fitting
crown with huge bow of crysanthe-
mum pink ribbon.
But what is called the Marie Antoi-
nette shape and promises to be the
leading novelty for some months to
come is poke of fine straw with
short back and high steep crown. An
uncountable number of little bows of
black ribbon arranged in rows is the
trimming for one of the newest of
these experiments, together with lot
of nodding black plumes. A hat like
this looks a century old, but it is very,
very fin de steele.
Levi p. Morton's eldest daughter has
Marie Antoinette hat rather more
summery in effect and meant for wear
in late August. 1t is a quaint affair of
white braided straw, trimmed with
white satin ribbon bows and black
ostrich tips fastened with paste
buckles. To go with it is dress of
white yelling with large black chenille
spots, wide collar and wide ribbon sash
with large square bows.
So far as one can now see the fall
colors will be golden brown, French
blue, tan, black and white, with an oc-
casional knot of yellow and green.
