RECEPTION TO Mr.. CAPEN. Rev. Ran
dali T. Capen addressed large audience of
his former church and personal friends at
the Baptist church last Friday evening. Mr.
Capen recently resigned his pastorate of the
Baptist church in Madison, Wis, and will
sail from San Francisco, Calf, Oct. 18th
for Swallow, China, under appointment of
the American Baptist Missionary Union.
He came to Belfast to say good bye to his
many friends here and the cordial greetings
and expressions of good will he received
indicate clearly the regard and respect Bel
fast people have for this Whole-sOuled, man
ly young man. To know him is to like him.
He spoke of missionary work in general
and of the field in China in particular and
Said that his intentions we're nothing new,
but circumstances clearly pointed out the
duty to him. His earnest zeal showed that
there was no dread in the undertaking, only
the severing Of friendly and family ties.
He seems specially fitted for the work he
has undertaken, for his personal manner
and every day life would naturally win the
confidence and respect of all with whom he
came in contact even if they differed widely
In religious views. He has a seven-years
appointment and apparently thinks only of
the good he can do in those years to his
fellow men, although they are heathens now.
The Sunday school presented Mr.. Capen
with the fund in their birthday box, $40, to
be used by him in his work. In response
Mr.. Capen said he would apply it to some
particular object and report to the school
what he did with it. At the close of the ad-
dress Mr.. Capen, at the suggestion of Rev.
E. S. Philbrook. the pastor, stood in front
OF the desk and shook hands with many he
had not been able to meet personally during
his brief visit. He left for Massachusetts on
Saturday mornings train.

NEW TRIMMING
FOR SUMMER GOWNS
Is Known as Button Embroidery,
and Comes from Switzerland.

From Switzerland comes a new
button embroidery. If all that is
claimed for it is true. it fills long
felt want. for these embroideries are
alleged to be practically indestruct-
ible. The trimming is unique in a
season when a multitude of designs
seem to cover every possible field
for originality.
The basis of the BUTTON embroid-
cry is apparently a set of tiny rings,
much like those used in making point
lace. These are arranged in various
patterns and so covered with embroid-
cry that their existence can only be
matter OF conjecture. In some cases,
the cloth in the center of the ring is
cut or stamped out; in others, it is
allowed to remain. The embroidered
patterns such as conventionalized
flowers and scrolls.
Deep or narrow, fiounce embroid-
cries in fine swiss or heavy materials,
collar and cuff sets and special waist
sets are manufactured of this en-
broidery. A flounce that will do
away with the necessity for gathering
is shown made of a circle of Swiss,
the embroidery being along the outer
border. The round center is intended
to be the size of the skirt or petit
coat, although 1t may be cut out to
accommodate a wider one. The plain
edge of the circle is stitched to the
draperies. The embroidery then falls
in folds, much more graceful than the
ordinary flounce. A manifest advan-
tage OF this form is the ease with
which it may be launderRd.
A stock collar recently seen was
made of button embroidery IN a
grape pattern. 1t was. of course, rath-
err open, and designed to wear about
the bare neck with an evening gown
The collar itself was high and had
four tabs. one in the back and front
and one on each side. Pale blue rib
bicene was laced in and out of the
embroidery in an intricate design, and
gave a smart finish.
This fad of wearing transparent
lace collars with decollete gowns Is
growing. especially with those not
blessed with a plump neck. The bit

New Millinery nodeIs Almost Limitless
The Boat Shaped Sailor the TOne and the Picture Hat the Prevailing
Styles

The lines Of new millinery are now
definitely established, but, unless it is
the boat-shaped sailor, no one style
seems likely to have a special vogue.
The models offered appear limitless in
trimming, till the mind is almost en-
barrassed with an excess Of riches.
1t is a long time since headgear has
been as universally becoming as now,
as light in weight for the effects
achieved. or as inexpensive. The
horse-hair braids and rafia straws
have much to do with lessening heav-
mess. The thin lace and small flowers
and ribbon trimmings likewise assist
in this service, and whatever the shape
every line of the head and face is con-
sidered in its construction.
One thing the mind sophisticated in
such matters observes is the decided
difference in size between the French
and American models. French hats are
considerably smaller than those made
here. and have tendency 10 sit away

The Fancy Hat.
But except for practical service, IL
is plain that what might be called the

FLORAL BATHS
A NEW BEAUTY
PRESERVATIVE

The latest fancy of the beauty seek
er is the flower bath. She takes it for
the benefit of both health and good
looks. Some one discovered that rose
leaves strewn in the water were not
only gratifying to the senses, but ex-
erted a beneficial effect upon the skin.
In a short time scores of women were
trying bathing experiments with flow
ers. OF course, the fad developed as
it found followers, until now it is
amazing TO hear of the wonders that
these baths accomplish.
No elaborate apparatus or expensive
cosmetics are required. 1t is possible
to prepare a stock of materials to last
during the winter when natural flow
ers come high. Packed in salt and
stored in air-tight jars or boxes, the
dried leaves are said to be as effective
The Savannah morning news. (Savannah, Ga.) 1900-current, 1904-04-24

as when first plucked.
Rose baths are first in popularity
because of the plentifulness of the
flowers. To prepare them warm water
is introduced into the tub, and the
rose petals are allowed to steep for
some time. Distilled or rain water is
preferred to hard water, as it alone is
a good cosmetic.
A bag of cheese cloth, or similar ma
terial, filled with bran mixed with the
flower petals, or supplied only with the
petals, is the substitute for a sponge
or wash cloth. A pure Spanish olive oil
soap is used. as the olive oil has an
affinity for the tiny globules of oil that
give the flowers their perfume.
The essence of the flowers is extract
ed by allowing from three to five
pounds of the flowers to stand for a
few days in two gallons of proof spir-
its. The petals are then removed by
straining. A portion of this liquor is
added to the bath, when fresh flowers
are no longer obtainable. Rose, violet
or mignonette balls are simply the
leaves of the fresh flowers pounded to
a paste in a mortar scented with the
essential oil of flower, and then rolled
into balls for use. These also can be
kept any length of time.
OF the hygienic qualities Of the
baths, it is said that violets and Law
ender are soothing to the nerves.
Roses are invigorating Bergamot,
mignonette. myrtle blossoms, orange
flowers, honeysuckle, jasmine, arbu-
tus or mayflower, tuberoses, rose
geranium and lemon verbena are not
only deliciously perfumed. but are
skin cosmetics and nerve tonics.
OF the strictly medicinal baths, the
most useful ones for improving the
skin is that in which is STEPPED the
blossoms of the late Towering witch
hazel, which grows along streams in
every country neighborhood. The bath
containing flowers of the black alder
is alleged to ward off contagious ILL
nesses, for the plant contains power
full antiseptic. Celadine, a flower
which grows by streams, is said to be
excellent for scrofulous skins.
The rose willow. foxglove. bitter
sweet, agrimony and wintergreen are
declared to be very healing. Sweet
fern Will allay rheumatic pains and
dogwood is serviceable to sufferers
from ague.
The flower baths are said to be rest
full because the vitality of the flower
is absorbed by the body. Exhausted
nerves can be treated in this way
through the pores of the skin when
opened by the warmth of the bath.
When the cuticle is flabby and I'M
healthy looking, handfuls of petals are
saturated with olive oil soap and mas
seged over its surface, until the pores
are forced to take up some of the
healing oils. 1t is impossible to know
just what flower will prove most
beneficial until experiments are made
with a number. Once this fact is de-
termined. the flower should be used
regularly to the exclusion OF all
others.

back. Some of the black lace wells
are very long, the ends being brought
scarf fashion around the throat and
tied under the chin in a loose bow
Still another style is very deep with
the ends barely meeting at the back
and such sorts are held around the hat
crown by means of an elastic.
Rather Expensive.
But since these lace wells are ex-
pensive-$5 is a common price for one
in imitation dentelle-the various ma
lines and tulle nets will likewise be
worn. These. when a web is proper
ly selected, may also, however, be
made up with lace and ribbon borders,
and the shop ones so fashioned have
a ready sale.
Finally colored headgear, il is evil
dent. will be more worn than black
and though brown is not recognized
as a specially becoming shade, much
brown millinery is seen. A touch of
gilt, black, red or green often relieves
this, and one brown straw turban seen
was delicately piped at the brim with
velvet in these three shades. A mass
of shining ivy leaves, arranged in

only other trimming.
