The princess yoke will be in favor
this fall. 1t will be made of lace or
have a certain amount in it's construc-
ton. Heavy silk lace is considered
particularly good for the purpose, al
though Venice and Irish will also be
used.
AS to boas and rufus there is little
question that they will again be DOB.
ular Maline will probably be the
leading material used. both in plain
and in small figured effects, and in
black, brown and blue more than in
any other colors, some of these being
dotted with white.
But to come back once more to
the present, very handsome yoile
dress is shown herewith. The skirt is
a simple full shape gathered to a
shaped yoke; it is trimmed at the foot
with two bands of lace insertion. The
deep corselet belt is mounted on q
Featherbone foundation and is worn
with an embroidered net slip. The
smart little bolero is trimmed with a
band of lace insertion threaded with
ribbon, which is formed into loops and
ends each side the front. Beneath
this insertion is frill of the wolfe;
the sleeves are trimmed in the same
way. and are finished with deep lace
ruffies.
Hat of pale blue straw, trimmed
with white roses, ostrich tips. and
black ribbon velvet

What rage for white there has
been this summer White gowns,
white shoes, white hats and wells, and
shall we say it--even white faces, for
no longer is the beaming face OF old
Sol courted for that delicious tan tint
erstwhile so popular Much as | dis
like the lily Wilderness, it nevertheless
Is true that 1t is not considered cor
rect at this season of the year to have
more than the faintest tinge of color
In the cheeks. And the ultra-fashion-
able woman exploits a complexion of
ivory, busted with pearl powder.
1t is not expected that women shall
be quite reasonable. and so no one
unless 1t be an unregenerate man
will be surprised when l say that the
very latest fad is white mourning.
OF course this is not really novel
ty. The women mourn in white In at
least one European capital, but in
France 1t will be very real change,
for there the robes of sombre crepe
hold rigid sway. But this new idea
OF white mourning comes from Paris.
and 1t is hard to say just at present
whether the idea will obtain favor
with the women who control the
fashions, but famous dressmaker is
strongly advocating the innovation,
and already pure white crepe gowns,
accompanied by pure white crepe
toques, with long wells hanging at the
back, are to be seen.
But to turn from so somber a sub.
ject. Wells are playing a very i'm
portant role in the world of dress this
summer. They are long, extremely
voluminous, and of every possible
tint The very latest novelty is a
Turkish arrangement OF lengths of
chiffon-tulle Two distinct wells are
worn, one to cover the hat and fore
head and the other the lower part of
the face from the nose down 1t is
truly hideous arrangement, but per
feet disguise. Your best friend would

lady's wardrobe. Three of unusually
pretty design are shown in our illus

of the dainty thin materials that are
to be purchased this summer. Muslin
cotton wolfe, r1ercerized lawn, and
cambria are all inexpensive and from
them and by the aid of a little lace
trimming any of these designs may be
made

New Presbyterian Brotherhood.

2. The organization of ushers rs

3. The organization of classes for
the study of missions
4. The promotion OF intelligence
regarding the boards of the church.
8. The establishment OF bath
rooms and gymnasiums, reading
rooms and libraries, employment and
boarding house bureaus, sick and re
lief funds, savings banks, classes for
physical culture, athletics, educational
! classes of various kinds.
g. The promotion of civic reform.
4 The creation and promotion OF

s. Work for boys.
At the present time there is an or
ganizatfon in the Presbyterian
churches of Chicago of 5000 men,
made up of mems Bible classes in the
different churches, and in extend.
Ing the scope of the movement it is
proposed to do it through the medium
of organized Bible class work.
Mr. Andrew Stevenson, who is
president of this Chicago brother
hood, is prominently identified with
those in charge of the arrangements
for the convention in November, and
in speaking of the plans, said:
The prevailing theme of the con.
vention will be brotherhood and sery
ice, and we will have three popular
meetings in the evenings. The first
night the principal speaker will be
William Jennings Bryan; the second
night, Grover Cleveland, and the third
night, John Wanamaker. Coupled
with them there will be one strong
spiritually minded man who will tell
about the work. Other speakers al
these popular meetings will be men
like Robert E. Speer, President Wood.

One point of difference will distin
guish the Presbyterian brotherhood
from similar organizations in the
other denominations in that it is pro
posed to make the former an organic
part of the church organization
While the Broth rhood of st. An.
drew, in the Protestant Episcopal
church, the Brotherhood of st. Paul
and the Wesley Brotherhood of the
Methodist church, and the Brother
hood of Andrew and Philip in the
Reformed and other churches, are ali
approved and recognized by the high
est courts of the denominations, none
have any organic relations with the
churches. and it is proposed in or
ganizing the Presbyterian brother
hood to have it on a broader basis.

The True Story Of a Dog Hero.

Next to man the dog undoubtedly
takes the foremost place in saving life
in sudden peril. In this case it is a
big, handsome Newfoundland, and the
story is related from the experiences
of a certain engine driver.
CHANGING one day from his engine
box the driver felt suddenly the hot,
oily atmosphere that surrounded him
transformed to the iciness of winter.
The train was approaching village,
and in few seconds wof . cross
ing the dusty high-road' Ct gates
were open. No danger IL ahead.
Yet the drivers eyes were tied, ter
fortified, upon the cleaning lines be-
fore him
Eighty rods ahead tiny girl was
toddling gayly straight in the path of
the fast approaching train.
With a cry of horror the driver
sprang TO the brakes, whilst with his
other hand he released the whistle.
The train rocked under the sudden
check of the brakes. With hand still
on the whistle, the driver glanced
again through the window. The child
was still toddling on, unconscious of
the fast advancing train.
Now only a few yards lay between
the baby and the grooming engine.
The train could not be stopped in
time. Suddenly the driver turned
away. covering his eyes with his
hands to blot out the tragedy.

Some one laid a hand on the
drivers shoulder, and the flremans
voice rang out demanding to know
what had occurred, and why the train
had pulled up Speeches. still with
horror, the driver gazed absently into
the grimy face of his comrade, who,
shovel in hand. returned his glance
with amazed eyes.
Perceiving that something had hap
pened, the fireman, leaning outside the
coach. looked down the line
Then roar of laughter fell on the
drivers ears.
We'll, never!" he heard the man
exclaim, as he turned half-bewildered
to the scene.

ly making toward a cottage, was a
great Newfoundland dog bearing in
its mouth the little child

AS to the dress accessories for fall
wear there are several striking inno-
vations. One which promises to
meet with success is the Peter Pan
hat During the summer this shape
found much favor in straw, and now
1t is to take it's place as winter
article. The Peter Pan is somewhat
similar to a Scotch cap, being long
and narrow, with dent in the crown.
These hats for winter wear win be of
felt or velvet, although other material
may be used. For trimming wings
