much as the merchant could not reason
ably he expected to furnish these stamps,
the inevitable conclusion was that the
customer paid for these stamps in some
way, though tho customer might not
know il. The result was that host Of
merchants who had formerly handled
trading stamps refused to have anything
further to do with them, and the trad
ing STAMP concerns have recently decided
to abandon the field.
Public opinion had won a victory which
q law Itself had been found unable to
achieve.
Our Canadian cousins have reached the
point where they believe law to be
necessary to protect them from trading
stamps. and an act has Just taken effect
there having this object In view. by
the terms of this law a merchant who

ishable by a years Imprisonment Or a
fine of $500 The merchant who issue
such stamps as a premium Is also guilty
Of an indictablc offence. and II liable to
fine and Imprisonment. Any person who
being a purchaser of goods, receives such
stamps is also guilty of an offence and
| Ia liable to a fine Of so. The Canadians
have evidently adopted the true policy

the Canadian law will prove more effect

however, remains to be demonstrated.

THE POWER OF PRAYER,

(Sir Oliver Lodge, quoted in London
Chronicle.)
Those who made a study Of the uni
Verse and realized the number Of worlds
scattered throughout space, and that this
world was hut as a pin point in the in
finite creation, could not take the view
that man was the highest intelligent be-
ing in the universe. Once they stepped
beyond man, and said he was not the
highest, they could not stop until they
arrived at the Deity. They could not
stop short of infinity, and when they
found that simple request to a fellow
man could produce effect. how could they
deny the power of prayer?

NEW YORK
FASHION


/ frocks will not be employed by the
select and exclusive in dress, for they
will as usual become too common and
| will destrop entirely the chic air OF
even the prettiest frock.
As will be seer from the descrip.
ton of the black cloth costume in an
earlier pa agraph, the waistcoat is go.
ing to be one of the popular accom-.
paniments Of the low cut coat, and
also of draped bodices. This is essen.
TALLY a French style and will be popu-
lar with those who follow the Paris
ians in matters of dress.
There is n thing certain, and that
is. that cashmere is at last to be a
fashionable fabric, and no outfit will
be complete unless it has at least one
frock of this material. The blue and
green, with black combination men
toned before, is again seen in a cos
tune of green cashmere trimmed With
folds and pipings of black satin, and
embroidered in Chinese blue. This
material is to be had in both the
Scotch and Indian weaves, the Scotch
being more sharply defined. The color
ings shown are exquisite, and should
delight the heart of very woman and
tempt her to add at least n dress
in a favorite shade to her wardrobe.
There are lovely new shades of bronze,
peacock blue, green, red, violet, in
fact. any color which a person may
wish. The MARTIAL is soft and cling
ing, and of light weight, qualities
which recommend it for health as well
as beauty. 1t is claimed that with
modern improved methods of manu-
featuring this fabric the one fault
which it possessed, that of becoming
shiny with use, has been overcome.
If this is true, then the material is
all that ear be desired in the way of
gracefulness, beauty of texture and
wearing qualities.
Velvet is seen on everything. If 1t
is not used in all the material for the
whole costume, there must be at least
a touch of it somewhere on the frock,
whether it be for street, house, even
ing or recreation wear. Never before
has this eve beautiful and also ser,
viceable material seen such an era of
popularity as it will have this season.
Velvet gowns will be made and worn
for all occasions, and there is not a

New York. Oct. fittings in the
field of fashion are rather indefinite
Just now and the woman who is wise
buys only what is absolutely neces-
sary to tide her over between seasons
and waits until the modes for winter
are more settled and definite. One of
the fashionable society danes, who is
spending the months of September
and October in the country, ordered
several costumes to carry her over
until November, when the regular
styles will be known. Among these
gowns were two street frocks Of cloth
in the new dark grey, best known as
London smoke. which seem to be one
of the popular colors for the coming
season. This gray is very deep, but
is not of that blue shade which be-
comes hard in the deep tones. There
is a foggy s~oftness about II which
has given it the name mentioned
above.
The best hats are to be seen in this
new shade of gray, trimmed with other
tones of the same color, for relief, and
they have the advantage OF meeting
with the approval of the fashionable
m%illiners, There is only one drawback
to the complete triumph of the color
among the new innovations. and that
is its unbecomingness to the majority
of women. A color may be worn for a
time regardless of this latter fact, be-
cause it is the thing, but in the end
it very quickly loses its vogue among
the more refined and smart women.
who really set the fashions in this
country.
Another innovation of the season is
the use of blue as trimming on black.
For this the greenish blues among
which are turquoise and. peacock
blues, are the favorites. A touch of
gold is also added to some of the
smart new models.
One costume of black b~roadcloth
was made with. a long circular skirt,
nodded to the hips, flaring at the bot
tom, and having a slight train. This
last would be impracticable for any
but those who have a carriage at their
disposal. The coat was a tight fitting
model, with short ripping basques,
and reveIs of the style called en- roy
able. The buttons. which closed it
down the front, were of cloth, set in
gold rims. Underneath was worn a
silk waist coat of a greenish blue,
slightly embroidered in gold. A plas-
iron of lace also accompanied the
costume. A new thing in cloth frocks
was the elbow length of the sleeves
on tlis coat, with cuffe matching the
revers, and a frill of lace edged with
blue and gold. The hat worn with this
costume was black, slightly tipped up
on n side and trimmed with gold
gauze and wings of shaded blue.
White felt hats are again worn this
season, but the newest of them are
trimmed with folds of gold gauze, OF
with stiff plumage, showing brown
notified effects. 1t seems as if a
touch of gold or silver on costumes OF
hats will be the rage once more, from
the indications of the present models
Knots of gold or silver on hats, gold
metal ornaments on corners of revers
and cuffs. Gold thread embroidery in
lowered and brocaded silks, all these
are to be found in the latest styles
However, those methods of applying
