The Rev. "A. r. Vosburgh,a a prominent
Christian Science lecturer Of Rochester,
n. y, made an address ON the subject.
christian Science is ss.-atihc Chris
tianity,n In the New-Century Club
Building last night In brief. he said:
Christian Science holds steadily the
essential principles, the fundamental
truths of Christianity, and these are
four: First. the being OF God. as reveal
ca In the Bible through Christ; second,
the Bible as the revelation of Gods
word third. Christ Jesus as the one
mediatol-way shower-between God
and men; fourth. the necessity of a
radical cOnyersion--a deep. sincere re-
penting, and receiving and living the
| Christ life. These constitute the es-
sential orthodox Christianity; and
Christian Science does so include and
ienfcrce these vital principles that every
lChristian Scientist finds them renew
edly and increasing emphasizing them
selves in his life
'rhen, Christian Science Is the ideal
ism OF Jesus. because II works out
Righteousness, heals sickness and sin
and reveals the law that underlies al
tnese works. II shows how the con.

Small Waists Not Fashionable

authorities on physical Development
The great fault with the American
woman's form is the possession Of an
absurdly small waist, and, in proper
ton. abnormally large hips. The COM
parison made years ago, when the fash
iOnable woman was said to resemble
nothing so much as am hour-glass, is
still in force, for nothing so aptly
describes the appearance of a woman
who seeks by artificial means to con-
ceal an accumulation of flesh, and who,
instead Of succeeding, simply accentu-

CIinging Fabrics Prevail

The soft, cllnging qualities in dress
fabrics prevail this winter. Even silks
are without much dressing; the stand
alOnef' quality which seems to be the
birthright of an elegant fabric, is
naught, and it is characterized by a
softness and pliability Silks are as
heavy and rich as may be desired, and
they suggest the tints of the rose gar

vapOry mists. The woman who is
gifted in the art of fine needle work
can put her accomplishment to a .prac-
tical purpose this winter, for there is
no end to the amount OF applique work
used on evening gowns and on fancy

REALM
These Girls Wear No Jewels


Not until she is married is the
French girl allowed to wear any gem
sther than a soft-stoned pearl. and but
few of these either. A diamond in a
brooch would be considered quite in
bad taste. and as for a ring, she does
not even wear her engagement ring un-
til after the wedding
A very handsome bejeweled ring Is
invariably given to her by her fanee
as soon as the engagement is an
nounced, but she rarely wears IL, keep
ing it as something only to be looked
at and shown to friends for the few
weeks that elapse between her plight
ing her troth and renewing her VOWS
at the altar.
As a French girl is practically in the
school room until her future husband
comes on the scene and the marriage Is
arranged, she is content to be seen for
the first time in a blaze Of diamonds
and other sparkling jewels only when
she is known as madame.
