Bishop r. r. Hendrix Of Kansas City
preached last night at Epworth Methodist
Church. at jefferson and Thirty-eeventh
streets. Bishop Hendrix's theme was the
power OF Satan in the world. and it was

The conclusion reached was that good
proceeding from an infinite being was
infinite and would prevail over evil. whica
was a manifestation OF the finite satan
and hfncc finite.
In his sermon Bishop Hendrix scored
roundly the saloons and gambling rooms
OF savannah. which he SAID were agencies
Of Satan in carrying on mis- war against
the human race. The wiles OF the devil
and the temptations which he Is nccus-
toned to throw IN the way Of the people
OF this world were described. and his
dangerous power revealed.

The Brazilian minister to the United
States has been endeavoring to encour-
age the importation into this county
of Yerba mate or Paraguay tea, to take
the place to some extent of Chinese
tea. Yerba Mate is n stimulant used
generally throughout South American
countries. Most Americans who visit
Southern countries become fond of the
drink, though it seems doubtful If 1t
will ever take the place of tea in this
country. Our consul-general at Rio
Janeiro in a report to the state de-
partment recommends its use, how
ever, as an excellent stimulant and
nerve tonic. 1T is pre-eminently a
temperance drink" ne says, "and the
temperance societies in the United
States could do a very useful work by
helping to popularize it. Yerba mate,
has all the stimulating and sustaining
qualities of Chinese tea or of coffee,
without the detrimental effect caused
by their constant and excessive use

tion of the nervous system, etc-and
it is very cheap. The great masses in

/ must tell you of a summer evening
dress that has just been made for a
debutante of last winter. The girl who
will wear IL is tall and slender.
Point d'esprit is the material Of which
this gown is made. 1t is built over 4
low-necked and short-sleeved slip of
white tafeta. The skirt is shaped 10
tit smoothly around the hips. At the
bottom the skirt flares eX~trayasantly.
There are three rows of accordion-pleat-
ing of the dotted net at the bottom of
the skirt. Of such depth that they come
just up TO the knee. These are put on
with just the slightest unduIation. Each
founce has five rows of narrow white
satin ribbon run on. The bodice is cut
round in the neck. Three pleated ruff1es

back by loops of two-inch wide satin
ribbon with four ends Of the ribbon
floating down TO the bottom of the skirt.

ing Just enough TO be graceful, the
spreading effect at the bottom being in
by the full ruches that finish
the foundation skirt OF taffeta.
The white gowns Of all-over stufs are
among the most dressy. White embroid-
