1--WE Congrega tionalists hold the key
20 the situation. We have the ma
chinery, the expectant meetipg-houses,
the commanding sites, strategic posi-
tions historic associations, the deep
heart-love of the natives, the polity
which best accords with the genius or
Japan. All that is needed is the en-
thusiastie backing of the churches OF
the nation. If you of the mainland are
with us in sympathy, prayer and gifts,
the new era in missions for Hawaii
should fifty supplement the glorious
days of the second quarter of the Nine
teenth Century. In this emergency our
beloved American Missionary Assocl-
alton has decided to come to our sup
port, and believes that the churches of
the nation will with their gifts say
amen to it's crusade.
In the evening Doctor Scudder lee
tured in the Compton Hill Congrega-
tional church on the topic, Gods Hand
in Our Mid-Pacific Paradise" The lee
ture was illustrated with 120 views,
specially selected and prepared for this
address, The lecturer first graphically
outlined Gods way of building volcanic
islands like Hawaii, next showed the
beauty of verdure with which the d.
vine artist clothed the bare lava beds.
and then told the marvellous story OF
how this group was providentlally kept
for entrance into the sisterhood of free
and equal States, Notwithstanding the
repeated endeavors of other Powers to
gain possession. Following this, Doctor

I'm. we'll I think the bow has the
call; all sorts Of original fantacies.
Really, I never knew there were so
many different kinds. or that so much
dash and individuality could be eX-
pressed in their makeup.
Heretofore, bows were just bows,
graceful and coquettish little trifles Of
dress regarded as being purely frivolous
But now the bow has assumed new
dignity, and is being taken seriously In
fact, there IS no alternative, when you
are turning out scores Of frOcks and
hats. with requests for every other one
TO be trimmed or al least touched up
with bows.
There IS good deal more knack In
making bow, IN originating new ef-
fects than you would believe. = woman
must have an artistic temperament to
be a successful bow-maker. I have sew
eral expert women who can turn their
hands 10 almost everything. but making
bows is impossible with them. I brought
a little French girl over with me from

The Fluffy, Frivolous Bow.
There is a large bow being worn under
the chin with shirt waist suits pre-
viously mentioned that is having much
vogue. This is made of self-material
and soft ribbons; the ends are stitched
and daintily frayed out. and again are
decorated with some fancy stitches.
A bow much favored by the summer
girl IS made Of chiffon. plain and in flow-
cred effects. punched into two long loops
and ends. pulled a little on the bias;
thus both the loop and end form an out
line not unlike the graceful contour OF

When this bow is properly tied it is
one Of the most graceful styles imagin-
able. The ends are trimmed with lace
made especially 10 mt, or Of lace gallOOn,
or possibly oddly shaped motifs. This
is made both large and small but those

remember that like tabasco sauce, an
overdose IS not a good thing.

She was everything bVt the pretty girl.
For the short skirts. as they were
made then, were not pretty. They were
scant and ungracefuL They were too
tight around the hips and too narrow
and too Happy around the feet They
were made OF coarse material And
they were not elegant. No matter what
they were called, whether they were
named the rainy day skirt or the in

ankle length. they were not the thing

patent fastener you may happen to
have handy.
1t is now time to put on your belt.
Throw it around your waist, pull it
low in front and fasten it with fancy
pin. This will give the long, full low
waist curve which you so much de-
sire.
There is a clever way Of accomplish
ing this same feat with shirt waist
Put on the shirt waist and pull 1t low
in the middle OF. the front Now put on
the skirt and let it dip in front. The
front dip is fashionable even with the
round skirt and many of the 1880 skirts
are cut with a very low point in front,
though perfectly round otherwise.
The same is true Of the 1860 skirts.
Though they are full and round, they
are cut with the dip in front. This
dip, which is made by scOoping out the
front of the skirt in a big curve, is
