LininCs For Trunks.

A new fashion for the travellers
outing trunk is that of linen Innings
to be placed in the trays and COM
partments. They can be simply
made, with hem as the finish. They
have become so popular, owing to the
ease with which they can he washed,
that they are taking the place OF
satchels.
Another convenience made of linen
is case for holding shirtwaists.
These are of wash material, and
made like nightgown case, the edges
bound with eolored braid or with
ribbon, the owners initials being en-
brol lered in cotton or wash silks.
For jewels bags made cf chamois
may be used. In any of the shops

CONCERNING WOMEN.

Probably no woman in England
rs Adeline, duchess Of Bedford Her
grace holds permission from the home
secretary 20 visit prisons in which
women are incaryerated for periods OF
over two years, and she has made ex-
cellent use Of the great trust imposed
in her. She and her colleague, Lady
Batte-sea, do their utmost to give pris-
Oncrs on their discharge a fair chance
Of becoming useful and respected mem
bers Of society. The duchess Of Bed
ford is a handsome woman in the
prime Of life, and when speaking from
the platform the resemblance in voice
to her sister, Lady Henry Somerset, IS
very striking.
Here are FIVE golden rules which
should be observed By those who often
arrange flowers: Put your flowers in
very lightly. Use artistic glasses. Do
not use Dlore than two, or at the most
three, different kinds OF flowers in one
decoration. Arrange your colors to
form a bold contrast, Or, better STILL a
soft harmony. The aim Of the decora-
tor should be to show Off the flowers
not the vases that contain them:
therefore the simpler ones are far
preferable to even the most elaborate.
Glasses for q dinner table should be
either white, a delicate shade Of green,
brown or rose color, according to the
flowers arranged in them.

Yesterday afternoon the Elks
hel0 their memorial service to pay
tribute to their brother Elks who
have departed this life during the
year.
The roll call showed that only two
members had died since the Elks
organized here. Mr.. ], W. Jones
and R. G. Bruce, being the lament
ed ones.
The hall was filled to its seating
capacity with the elite of the city
The Elks, some fifty strong, were
untiring in seating those who came
in late, as it was difficult to find va
cant seats in the hall, as it had the
appearance of being filled, yet the
Elks in attendance always found
room for one more, even if they did
have to shoulder chair from some
anti room and work their way to
the front, they found space for
those who followed them.
The program was followed out as
published, with the exception OF
substituting some of the singers
for those who sent In regrets al,
not being able to attend.
The first number on the program
was the opening of the Lodge which
was called to order by Hon. Hiram
Glass.
The Elks regalia consists of a
chain of wide silver links, worn
around the neck, from which hangs
a silver Elk head, besides the usua
badges for officers.
After Mr.. Glass raped the Iodge
to their feet, he announced that
the lodge had been opened for the
purpose of showing respect to the
departed brothers. The usual rit-
ual was gone through with, after
which Auld Lang Syne was sung by
members of the lodge. Then came
addresses from Hons. Charles Todd,
Lee Estes and W. 7. Hudgins.
Several musical numbers we're
given during the services.
Rev. D. f. G. Timmons opened
and closed the services with prayer.
Among those who assisted the
Eks, were Mesdames, West, Often
