Professor Acquitted Of Heresy.

Prof. George Adam Smith, teacher
of old testament literature in the
United Free Presbyterian training
school for divines in Glasgow, has
been in trouble with the heresy hunt
ers of his denomination. In a course
of lectures he delivered at Yale theo'
logical seminary he showed tnat he
had accepted to a considerable extent
the views regarding the inspiration OF
the old testament, and its value as
history, held by the moderate high
critics. This aroused suspicion among
some Of the Scottish clergy and laity
and committee, after searching Prot
Smiths writings and examining him,
reported in his favor. The matter
was carried to the general assembly
which, after lengthy deliberation.
voted-534 to 263-that the professor
should retain his chair. Few Biblical
writer's of the day are more winning

wade all the modes Of the season from
footwear to headwear

wade all the modes Of the season from
footwear to headwear.
Of the former we have already had
descriptions: of the latter there is
much to be said The chief aim IN
millinery seems to be unique ex-
travagauce of effect sometimes attain
ed by fantastic pliable straw shapes
guiltlesS of all trimming. while at
others the whole of the success rests
on dexterously adjusted decoration.
The craze for fruit trimmed hats
continues. and the objects OF TINS
craze are as seasOnable as the pro-
ducts of nature which they initiate.
Simultaneous with the appearance OF
grapes in the market (althOugh the
real fruit be hot-house prOductlons)
Dame Fashion brings out the most
realistic little white grapes for mid
summer chapeaux. They are very
striking and when combined with
rich red velvet ribbon as they have
been here, are most ueSIdDlt Ssu-
dition to any wardrobe.
Another fancy in headgear is the
toque made of crepe de chine. There
comes a grade specially for this pur-
| pose and it is as thin as chiffon al
though more lustrous and probably
more substantial The crepe de chine
can be shirred over any shape and is
strikingly picturesque when done in
black and trimmed with pink and
white roSebuds.
Although the seductiyeness of the
modes grow apace. the woman with q
limited dress allowance may yet
hope, for so far there has been moth
ing introduced which has not sue
| cumbed to the wiles of the inmitatOr
and as long as such commendable
counterfeits are possible here is a
| chance for us all to be able to be we'll
dressed and stylish.
