Joy In Worship.

Tho Hebrew worship, we arc apt to
think. was overlapping and therefore
gloomy; but It had, nevertheless, large
room for Rladness. Tho magnificent
collection Of Psalms which have come
down to us give token that the element
Of Joy predominated In the worship Of
their assemblies. To this day we can
find no better expression Of exultant
emotion than these songs supply. We
do not think we are wrong In asserting
that the tone Of public worship to-day
il quite below that Of the Hebrews,
and certainly below that Of the early
Christians in gladness. In our hymns
and liturgies we use their words; but
1t Is seldom that In the worship Of a
modern congregation one il conscious
Of the exultant note Of Joy.

fer the LoAloe
Lace insertion u tulled upon bands
Of narrow Dresden ribbon. and these
arc made into yckea and the lower por-
tions of sleeves. One waist ID made OF
11s-inch wide Dresden ribbon In bright
colors and Chantilly lace insertion Of
the same width. The lace n put ON
slightly full, and the waist II made
over = rose-colored lining. There II =
sash Of insertion and ribbon, and a
rrf1lc around the shoulders Of the same
fabric. The crush collar In of rose
ruching of the combined materials.
A novelty hat Is Of lace braid; tho
brim IL in sailor shape md above It
are set pla,tings Of fine grenadine ar
rnnged in deep scallops, the upper edge
Of the scallops coming up even with
the top Of the crown. These scallops
are wired to keep them In place.
Against the crown In front are placed
hird-of-paradise feathers spreading out
on either side and . perpendicular
sigret. The effect IL that of . butter
fly with extended wings.
An extremely pretty hat Is made Of
fancy braid. The crown is rather low
and square md the brim slightly rolled
up ali around. just underneath the
brim. at the edge Of the hair, are clus-
tiers Of wild roses. Around the crown
are set number of plumes, nine be-
ing seen on one imported model. Under
these plumes are puffs and fans of silk
null.
Silk waists Of spotted or lowered
pattern have yokes made Of ribbon and
lace alternating. In ono model the
lace and ribbon are Joined with a cord,
and this is drawn up 20 ~ to pro-
duce tiny puffs, which are very pretty
and effective.
Silk canvas is q popular material. Il
is very much like grenadine and makes
up charmingly over bright colors.
These canvas waists lined with silk arc
worn with skirts OF all sorts. The can
vas makes exceedingly pretty rufles
and gives the effect of lightness, which
is so much sought after by all FASH
ionable designers.
To be strictly in the fashion, one
must wear subdued colors, as bright
and glaring ones are not approved.
The only exception to this is bright
red, which is much liked for waists,
but Is frequently covered entirely or
in part with white lace for young
ladies and black for those Of mature
years.
Batiste. lawn and orgnndie dresses
have yokes made of lace insertion and
outings. These are trimmed around
the edges with ruffles of lace or white
chiffon.
Guipure epaulets arc used to fall
over either plain or fancy sleeves, and
may be either composed entirely Of
the guipure or trimmed with lace.
Autumn-leaf colors will be worn all
summer and will. 1t il said. give place
to brighter tints upon the approach
OF cold weather.-N. Y. Ledger.

Worth Remembering.

Emerson's advice to writer's is good.
Expression is the main fight. Search
unwearedly for that which is exact.
Do not be dissauded. Know words
ctymologically. Pull them apart, and
see how they are made. and use them
only where they 1t Avoid the ad-
jective Let the noun do the work.
The adjective introduces sound, gives
an unexpected turn. and 50 often mars
with An unintentional false note. Most
fallacies are fallacies Of language.

Christ, the Friend.

II you wear the livery Of Christ you
will find him So meek and lowly O,
heart that you will find rest unto your
souls He il the most magpanimous
OF captains. There never was His like
among the choicest of princes. He is
always to be found in the thickest part
Of the battle. When. the wind blows
cold. He always takes the bleak side
Of the hill. The heaviest end of tho
cross lies ever on His shoulders. II He
bids us carry = burden, He carries it
also. If there is any that is gracious,
generous. kind and tender, yea, lavish
and superabundant in love. you always
find it in Him.. His service il life,
peace, joy. Oh that you would enter
on it at once! God help you to enlist
under the banner Of Jesus Christ

On one occasion, while Sir Isaae

tered his study. This caller, ~ Sir
Isaac knew, had often expressed his
disbelief in the existence of God and
his conviction that the world and Its
surroundings were tho result of evolu,
ton or chance. He was greatly pleased
with tho handsome globe, and askedi
''Who made it?"
Nobody" answered Sir Isaac; III
just happened here"
Tho man looked up In amusement 1T
the answer, but he soon understood
what 1t meant. Who can say that this
beautiful and wonderful world came
by chance, when he knows that there
Is not house, or ship, or picture, or
anything in it but has had . maker.
The logic Of the great philosopher was
