In the great Christian Endeavor Society.
which claims over four million members
and has its organizations in every country
on the globe. women, young and old, form
two-thirds of this mighty host, but they
have no official voice in the administration
of its affairs. In fact, the sex is scarcely
recognized in the roll of 80 trustees repre-
senting the various churches and organiza-
tions of which ii is composed.
The tenacity with which the great body
of Christian congregations cling co the Paul
inc admonition. Let your women keep ST.
lence in the churches and the rest of the
famous epistle, reminds one of the question
asked in a certain witty club paper, why
is it that nothing that could be uttered by
spinster on the management of husbands,
no matter how wise or how learned the
spinster might be. would ever command SER
ious attention, while the dictates of a con-
frmed bachelor who lived nearly two thou
sand years ago, in a civilization differing
in nearly every particular from our own, is
still made the standard of excellence for

Almost pretty as the alligator bags.
and fully as smart and as expensive, are
the bags of cowhide. the smooth thick
leather being finished in a pretty golden
brown shade. But If one Is looking for a
cheap bag which is not cheap looking, she
cannot do better than TO take one of the
trim little straw Ones which make no pre-
tensions and are yet very satisfactory in
appearance as in all other particulars. The
smallest OF the straw bags sells for fifty
cents and at one dollar there is a roomy
size.
The handsomest of the new bags for the
woman who goes a-traveling are of alligator
skin with all the pretty markings that Mr.
Gator possesses. The bags are of two or
three shades of brown and are of all sizes,
from the small ones, which hold only the
necessaries of journey to the big commo-
dious ones into which one may tuck all the
things requisite for a weeks visit. The
prices begin at six dollars and go on up
ward.
Some Of the newest of the silver novelties
are rather higher priced than silver has
been of recent years, but the handsomeness
them worth their price Round mirrors Of
small size for pendants, and tiny bonbon-
nieres. come in lovely art nouveau designs
and most of them cost in the neighborhood
OF four and five dollars.
The bead bags which so many girls are
TOW making nay be bought ready made and

for the .wo-k. One pretty one, which sells
FOR twelve dollars, has cluster of red
roses against a background of turquoise
blue beads, and the clasp and chain are of
rose gold.
Most of the new belts show the buckle in
the back as well as the clasp in the front,
and the separate buckles for the backs of
home-fashioned belts are important parts
OF buckle displays.
Nail brushes at ten cents, and hand
brushes at twenty-five cents look like min
iature scrubbing brushes, and while guilt
less OF beauty, are eminently satisfactory
for use.
