The story of Mocha Coffee.

Mocha is not alone the name Of a kind
of coffee, but also of part in the district
of Yemen on the Red Sea. The patron
saint of both was Sheik Schoedeli. whose
memory is venerated by the Mohamme-
dams almost as much as that of Mahomet
himself.
one day, 500 years ago. a vessel from the
Indies cast anchor in the port Those on
board had noticed a hut end they disem-
barked to see what 1t was. The sheik Qor
1t was his dwelling) received the strangers
kindly and gave them some coffee to drink
for he was very fond of 1t and attributed
great virtue to il. The travellers who had
never seen coffee before thought that his
hot coffee would be cure for the plague.
Sohoeden assured them that through his
prayers and the use Of this drink that not
only would the plague be stopped, but also
that IL they would unload their merchan-
disc they would make a good profit by II.
The owner of the ship was impressed by
this strange man. especially as he found
the coffee so palatable. On the same day
a large number of Arabs came to listen
TO the hermt's preaching. and among
them were some merchants who purchas-
ed all the goods on the ship. The Indian
visitor returned home, and telling hiss
strange adventure and profitable trading
many of his compatriots came to visit the
sanity Schoedeli
beautiful mosque was built over the
tomb OF Schoedeli after his death, and his
name will never be forgotten as long as
Mocha coffee IS drunk All OF the Moslem
coffee house keepers venerate him. men

tons Travellers say that in the town OF
Mocha or Ocha. as the Arabs call 81. men
take their oath not by God, but by the
memory of SchoedeiL.

Mario Menocal was sent from Cuba to

He remained in New York eight years, and
was graduated with high honors from
Cornell University as a civil. mining and

The record-union., 1899-04-16

He acted with reference to ends which
were beyond the limits of time; 1e
taught truth which would have been
the most colossal of falsehoods if there
had been no indeStructible spiritual or
der; He lived as seeing that which is
Invisible. The moment we come into
His presence we are aware of forces,
ends, aims and a spirit which were not
born in this world, and do not belong
to it. Prophecy issued also out of all
the great events of Christ's life. The
song of the angels, the voice at the
baptism, the agony in the garden the
sublime anguish of Calvary, would have
been inexplicable without the light
which was reflected back upon them by
the angels at the open tomb on the
morning of the resurrection Such a
nature and such a life were not formed
and fashioned within the narrow limits
of time and space; they brought infin-
ity and Immortality within the confines
of the world. Alone among men, Christ
has visibly put on immortality, but that
sublime truth does not rest on the
resurrection; it rests in the very
structure of mans nature and life"

Blue, white, pink, and other dainty
colored organdies, muslins, bareges ana
grenadines are effectively trimmed with
ruches and ruff1es of the dress fabric
edged with black lace On the bodice
is a mixture of these decorations with
bands of lace insertion, or very often
there are yoke and sleeves of net
matching the lace in design.
The blue foulard silks are always
more favored at each recurring spring
season than any pattern in black, brown
or green This year the satin foulards
and the thinner lusterless foulard silks
show an unusual number of shades in
blue, including indigo, Roman, brakes
neck, silver, navy, bluebell, peacock and
cel. Polka dots, small diamond shapes,
Vermiceli and coral designs predomi-
nate among the blue foulards for cool
travelling, beach and walking costumes.
They are trimmed with frills Of the silk
and have a plain silk vest and stock
collar.
On French gowns displayed at the
importing houses of the city appear
models for full dress demi-toilet and
every day wear, each showing velvet
ribbon put on in various novel ana
unique ways, often on net gowns in
bowknot designs, or rosette effects min

and straggling-stem designs. Again,
both wide and narrow velvet ribbon
is used on one dress, and on simple day
gowns of fabric like shepherds check,
wool, foulard, silk plain camePs hair,
crepon, mohair. etc, bebe velvet is still
put on in the familiar manner of many
seasons past, /. e., five or seven straight
rows on skirt, bodice and sleeves.

the belt in front; the entire piece of

pique, linen and duck waists, as well
as those of taffeta, foulard or wash silk;
other styles are trimmed with very
handsome Swiss or Irish point embroid-
cries. Again waists are seen with re-
movable vests, stock collars and girdles
of liberty silk. Besides these are count

Ecru, cream and ivory laces and in

of a full chiffon vest is frequently made
but this is adjustable and can be

are more frequently substituted than
trimming of any other description.
