The .Jersey=Top
PetticOat.

Attention is directed to the
Jersey-top Petticoat, which is
especially adapted to the present
mode of costume. The jersey part
of the skirt extends a little below
the knees, and its clinging propen-
sites commend it to stout women
both for warmth and the desired
lack of superfuous material around
the hips. 1t is trimmed with deep
accordian-plaited taffeta silk founce
finished with narrow ruffle; seams
are strapped with silk.

DIR, PATTON'S SUBJECT
New Christianity Discussed-Marked
Indifference to Spiritual Matters
Social Side of Religion.

In his address on "a Century of Presby-
terrain Doctrine" delivered last evening at
the centennial services Of the New York
Avenue Presbyterian Church. President
Patton of the Princeton Theological Semi
nary deprecated the "so-called Christianity
of today He spoke of it as vile dis
ease" and prophesied a great detection
to come in all the churches. His reason
for thus characterizing present-day Chris
tianity was that it had been reduced by
many persons to a mere science of morals
with the Importance of the individual soul
left out entirely. He said he did not be-
lieve that society could be reformed with
these latter-day methods.
Secretary James Wilson of the Depart
ment of Agriculture presided over the
meeting. On taking the chair he said:
I'VE have modified our faith somewhat
in the last 100 years, but it Is nearly the
same that 1t was century ago. We are
like the old man who prayed, Lord, max
recht, for are unco hard to move. -
Rev. DIR. William G. Alexander, pastor Of
the West Street Presbyterian Church, Of
fered the prayer of the evening.

beginning Of his address to congratulate
