A Book of Human Interest.

A recently published book Helen
Parker" by a newcomer in the field OF
letters, is work of promise. II deals
chiefly with the seamy side of life in
a great city and is interesting and en-
tertainlng as much by reason of the
earnestness of the author. Charles Ho-
mer Steele, as the comparative novelty
of its subject. The characters are well
drawn-some so strongly and so life
like as to be almost repnlsive-and the
book as u whole gives promise of bet
ter work to come, with the ripening
power and confidence which success
will bring.
The grand work done by Christian
workers and the Salvation army among
the friendless of cur cities is graphical
ly described, and yet not overdrawn.
The book is change, and a welcome
one, from the hackneyed style and
plots that have been so favored in re-
cent years; story of real life and OF
characters met with in the everyday
world. Decidedly one of these books
that repay reader for perusal and
the lesson it teaches Is good and whole
some. There is no CLOSING over OF
well-known though sad facts, the friv-
olousness and heartlessness of a type
Of modern society woman is depicted
with skillful hand; one feels through
out that the author has his heart in his
work.

FASHIONS OF The DAY


Cloth gowns are more often than
ever trimmed with stitched taffeta
bands. The neck ruche originally de-
signed in France is now made glorious
in this country by the addition of net.
SILK howers, ribbons and chenille.
A black street gown Of fine broad
cloth tells OF the continued popularity
OF the Eton jacket and the prevailing
Juror for taffeta silk as a trimming.
It may also speak of the enormous
prejudice for black at this moment, for
never was black considered more styl-
ish or more elegant than now.
On skirt and jacket the taffeta bands.
which are as usual cut on the cross,
outline great squares, disposed with
INC slant of diamonds. A slightly
gathered iounce, coming under the up
per portion of the skirt, suggests a
tun!c, ovorskirt effects being one of the
fads of the moment.
The jacket opens over a vest OF fine
tucked lawn, and is embellished with a
rever collar and vest of white satin,
covered with applications and embroid-
cries in Persian colors.
Ihe large hat is of gray angora. felt,
trimmed with a white ostrich feather
and white lace, showing black velvet
applications.
A pretty waist for dressy house use
Is made of black taffeta, with a plas-
iron collar embroidered with white

at various points with effective art.

Howard Griffith Colwell, forms
st. Louisan now in his 2Sth year, Is
thought to be the youngest college
president in the United States.
At the opening OF the collegiate
year of 1901, this exceptional young
man, then but &c years old, was in

ing in 1894. In the summer of that
year he organized the Elsberry ACade-
my at Elsberry, Mo, work marked

j. F. Colwell, who was a Baptist min
lister and editor In St Louis from 1888
until 1897, coming to st. Louis in 1888
to edit the American Baptist Flag for
three years. and then for two years

The sultan of Turkeys imperial IS

Ignorance which characierizes Abdul
Hamid's court. This worthy had on
one occasion the brilliant idea of
erecting a modern astronomical OBJ

work was finished and the instruments
in place he found he could neither
work nor understand them, and conse-
quently a professional astronomer had
to be summoned from Naples.
This, however. did not diminish the
influence of Kumbaris, who succeeded
in preventing the distribution OF Mau-
