done and is doing much for his people.
He is very much beloved by everyone for
the faithfulness of his pastoral work.
Rev. Mr.. Pope has given for publication

ACCORDING TO CABBY.
The TripA of n Woman Philanthropist
Must BE Arranged with
the Deity.

A Brooklyn woman whose phjlanthropie
efforts are mainly directed toward making
life happier and better for the little folks
of the crowded sections of the borough tells
a good story on herself, says the Eagle, OF
that city. As her field of endeavor is
not confined to one section OF that bor-
ough, she generally travels around from
settlement to mission or recreation ground
in a cab. One day she was on her way TO a
gathering of her proteges when she espied
a masculine acquaintance who had, on a pre-
yious occasion, manifested some interest IN
her work. and invited him TO accompany
her. He accepted, and they travelled down
lanes and through byways heretofore un,
known to him. In one of the narrowest ana
most crowded streets in a downtown quar-.
ter the fair philanthropist stepped TO pay
a visit. When she entered the cab again the
man said:
.sYou have an arrangement with the Deity
as well as the cabman when you come on
one of these expeditions, haven't you!
What do you mean!" was the astonished
reply. IL. ~.
Lord knows where you good ladies are gong

GOWN GOSSIP.

The handsomest ceremOniOus gowns
are made of panne and chiffon velvet.
Green velvet gowns have been seen,
and gray and black gowns are much
worn.
Muffs are very large this winter, but
many of them are only large with trim
ming, the space for the hands being
very skinny indeed.
One very bad effect has followed the
vogue of squirrel and mole furs, and
that is the increased use Of rouge The
gray fur requires bright color, or at
least a warm complexion, in order to
be becoming.
in spite of the great popularity for
rough weaves of cloth for street wear
the only correct fabrics for more elabo-
rate occasions are smooth. This applies
to silks as well as woods. Velvet and
yelveteen novelties are hardly seen at
all.
The latest shapes in neck pieces are
the short cravats and the pelerine stoles,
which are really shoulder capes with
stole ends. These ends taper at the
waist line and gradually spread out in
to broad tabs, usually trimmed with a
fringe of tails or with heavy chenille
fringe-New York Post.
