being given quarter. After the second
pail had been received Murphy asked fol

ing my bride went out driving in a
dark green mixed tweed frock with
splashes of red to give it warmth and
color. The bodice was made with
three box pleats front and back, with
small tailor buttons set about to the
depth of yoke to make a natty finish.
The full skirt hung in flutes, the bot
tom of the skirt was stitched and the
seams Tapped and stitched. A leather
belt fastened the bodice and soft,
rough green felt hat was worn, with
wide rolling brim and two red and
green quilts.
Another dress in which my bride has
appeared was a boucle cloth of dead
leaf brown with knots of dull red and
green. The skirt was so cut as to hang
in volutes, while the top fitted over the
hips snugly. A rouleau of green vel
vet edged it at the bottom. The jaunty
coat opened upon a vest of green
broadcloth and turned back in double
revers of green and brown broadcloth.
Flaring gauntlet cuffs of green velvet
finished the sleeves.

me to find that there were new things,
even if little things, to consider across
the border, but now and again the
question came back to me, why dark
blue?
Presently it was Sunday morning
At six o'clock 1 wondered why 1 heard
no trolley cars jingling. At seven
o'clock l began to strain my ears in a
puzzled sort of way for the sound of
footsteps on the pavements. At eight
o'clock l went to the window to look
for carriages. At nine o'clock l ven
tured into the streets of what seemed
to have become over night a city of
the dead. Then / remembered the
dark blue bottles. The capital city OF
the province of Ontario lives under
the bluest laws in force on the Ameri-
can continent.
Commissioner Roosevelt or the Rev.
DR.. Parkhurst would be in his element
here. And yet, no. With the Augean
stable cleansed what call would there
be for the services of a Hercules?
With the Sunday question, convuls-
ing New York and pressing for an
answer in city after city all over the

batharians in Uncle Sans domains

ing. There are no Sunday excursions.
1t costs the owner or captain of
steamer S400 to take a party out for
pleasure on the Lords day. The same
penalty is enforced against a railroad
or the conductor of an excursion train.
There are no Sunday newspapers. The
papers bears a Sunday imprint but it
is gotten out and sold Saturday even
ing. No provision stores open Sunday
morning. The drug stores open but
they sell medicines only-no soda wa
ter, no cigars. The restaurants sell
only to regular customers, with whom
they can put themselves on a boarding

thing is shut as tight as drum except
three sermons per day. 1t is against
the law to go fishing on Sunday or to

If the real Coney were set down on

of this blue city that any policemen

what to make of them. They are made
about 2S inches long, and lined with

AT the Toronto opera house last
evening were some very pretty cos
tunes. One was of white chiffon over
pale pink. The dress was a halo of
white and shimmering rosy hues. most
becoming to the tall blonde Canadian
who wore it. Fire opals outlined the
bodice at the throat and fell below in
cleaning fringe.
Another dress was of olive green
velvet lined with amber silk. Amber
hued chiffon filed in the low square
of the cors2ge and was drawn up, not
too high. about the throat with green
velvet ribbon. The elbow sleeves of
velvet showed deep pleatings of chif-
fon falling about the wrists. A linked
girdle of topaz and gold fastened the
waist, and yellow gloves with a little
bonnet nodding with yellow plumes

tive that Sunday laws had not hurt
trade. Toronto, he said, was suffering
the natural reaction after boom. In
1854 the city had a population of 105,-
900. In 1889 it had $4,000. There
was a gain of $1,000 in five years. Peo-
pie rushed in to buy land. They doubl-
ed or trembled their money. Buildings
sprang up like mushrooms in every di-
rection. In 1891 the boom burst. For
tunes were swept away. Houses built
on speculation found no tenants. Con-
sidering the hard times Of the past two
or three years Mr.. O'Meara thought
Toronto had weathered the storm bet
ter than most cities in the United
States.
1 asked him if the Sunday laws were
popular and he said Toronto had grown
up under them and her people could
imagine no different state of things:
The Sunday laws had even governed
the laying out of the city. The church
es were scattered throughout the resi-
dence section that nobody had more
than ten minutes walk to find a place
of worship of his own communion.
For the rest, Toronto had learned u
lesson from the wide open Sunday OF
certain American cities and greater
strictness would in future prevail. III

of the Sabbatarians and the malcon-

The Sunday law of the Province OF
Ontario is not widely different from the
laws on the statute books of most OF
the states of the Union. The trouble
begins with the Interpretation. 1t
reads:

This sounds very simple and ration

labors. Here the law is interpreted TO
prohibit Sunday newspapers and sun
day excursions. Does it or does it
