The Sunday dress has gone out OF fashion.
II i, no longer considered the proper thing
to wear Your hes, clothes to church.

it away to wear to n circus or "A picnic,

bonnet or your everyday headgear to wear
to church The Rev. Dir. A. W. Mcconnell
of Des MONIES says So
But even before the elict had gone forth
to the women of Des Mones to wear their
plane-t and Wost inexpensive clothes to
church the women Of New York had al
ready adopted the fashion. 1t has been
FIRE luently remarked by strangers visiting
the fashionable churches Of the city for
the first time that the women of the con-
gregation were plainly, almost severely
dressed
The light, fluffy and elaborate toilet
has been RELOCATED to the matinee, the
reception and the afternoon tea by the
fashionable woman of New York, and in its
place is seen a church costume of the quiet
est taste and most modest colors, with plain
hat and gloves to match.
The warm weather of the last few Sum
days has brought out some lighter costumes,
and dainty white gowns and light colored
silk and linen suits have been worn, but
it is noticeable that the gowns worn to
church by the leaders Of fashionable society
in this city are simple.
This fact was particularly observable
/ in a visit to the various fashionable churches
. of the city last Sunday. when the warm,
( bright day brought out unusually large
| congregations.
At st. Eartholemew's, where many Of
New Hork's most fashionable folks worship,
it was observed that simply made white
linen suits, modest costumes of light SUM
mer silk and plain simple hats with little
! trimming were almost universally worn
! by the women whose costumes are most
often observed and initiated.
At st. Thomas's the plain and incon-
' spicuous costumes of leaders Of fashion
were also observable. There were cool
dainty waists with white or lightweight
! wool skirts simply made silk shirt waist
suits, linen, muslin and light wooden cos
tunes Of plain and simple fashion, and hats
the quiet modesty of which was in pleas
ing contrast to the giddy and gaudy crea-
tons one is ccustomed to see upon the
streets.
A noticeable feature Of the costuming
! of the quietly dressed congre CATION OF
| the Presbyterian Brick Church was the
number of black gowns worn. Elegant
| gowns they were, of silk and Grape and
| grenadine, but quietly and simply made,
and nearly all Of walking length.
To the feminine observer 1t Is apparent

Keep Your Word at All Times.
Mem York Commercial

A middle-aged man who has succeeded in
establishing a lucrative business, one in which
he deals with many persons and often comes
in contact with them, says that the strongest
feature of his success that he can acclaim is
that he made it point to always keep his
word. When he began business in a modest
way be determined to do that, for he believed
that it was better than any minor strategy often
employed by men in dealing with their fellows.
Often in the beginning it would have been
much more profitable and much easier to re-
sort to subterfuge, but he was looking toward
future rather than present results. BY and
by, as time passed, his reputation for keeping
his word with customers grew and this very
circumstance acted as a safeguard to integrity.
There was no longer danger that tricks of the
trade would be substituted for candor. On
this basis the business grew to large proper
lions, and the public came to recognize the
value of the treatment that emanates from the
dwelling place of such principle.
keep your word, no matter at what cost
is the advice of this man to the aspirant for a
successful career.

THE INAUGURATION DATE.
Lancaster Examiner.

Lancaster Examiner.
as the day of Inauguration draws near the
country begins to speculate on the probable
state of the weather then. Will 1t rain or snow
In Washington on March 4th, or will the sun
sinner Will the President have to stand bare
headed in the open air and deliver long adj
dress with the temperature lowering around
zero. or will the genius who presides over the
weather provide balmy breezes and fair skies
These things get to be tremendously interesting
once every four years-so much so that discus
sion of the propriety of changing the inaugura-
ton date is always revived. The climate of the
national capital has never been of the summer
resort variety, and in March 1t is usually about
as dlsagreeablo as climate can well be. Rain,
snow and wind vie with each other in making
themselves generally Objectionable, and nobody
can tell one day what the next will bring forth.
The death of President William Henry Harrison,
in 1sI1. was attributed to cold contracted dur
ing his Inauguration, and that fact has had much
to do with the subsequent agitation for change
of date.
In 1898 Senator Hoar introduced an amendment
to the Constitution changing the time for the
expiration OF the terms Of the President, Vice
President, Senators and Representatives from
March 4th to the last Wednesday April. The
change was to take effect In 1901. A favorable
report on the amendment was authorized by the
Senate Committee on Privileges and Elections,
but nothing further came of it. If it had been
adopted by Congress and ratified by a sufficient
number of States the terms of President Nc
Kinley and Vice-Presldent Hobart would have
been extended nearly two months, and Mr. Nc
Kinley would have enjoyed the distinction of
being the only President in the history of the
country to serve more than four years in one
term.
The Constitution is a time-honored document
and fortunately it is held in such reverence that
efforts to tinker with it are not regarded with
popular favor. The date of the Inauguration is
a small matter and it will make no material
difference whether it is changed or not, but mas
much as an amendment would be required to
change it there is not much prospect of such
action ever being taken.

Too many people keep the flowers they have
plucked for you until the day of your funeral.
Their songs of praise are not heard until your
procession is passing their door. The mantle
of charity does not become public property
until put in use by the preacher who concludes
the 'slast sad rites" If man has flowers for
me want them while am on earth and can
smell their fragrance. They will do me no
good sitting at the head of my coffin. The
grass that is kept green about my last resting
place will be of little avail to me on the other
shore. Here is where / need the flowers and
the smiles and the praise, not over there. If
the fellow who is going to go around to the
house after l am gone to see IF he can be of
any help" will come around tomorrow l can
tell him how he can be Of whole lot of help.
There will be plenty of them. 1t is ALFRED

and sing your songs of praise at the dinner
table. Don't wait for the funeral.
