SKIRTS FOR WINTER.
New Garments are Made in Three or
Four Ways.

Skirts are made in one of three or
four different ways. But just for the
moment, the favorite is the plated
straight skirt. But 1t all depends upon
the material after all and the fancy
plated skirt with the plaits set In be-
low the hips is model that is much
worn.
Where materials will permit the ruff
fed skirt is popular, and the skirt,
consisting of two deep rufies, each
one-half the depth of the spirit, is
selected as the model in soft silks and
poplins.
The seven gored empire skirt is one
of the best models. This is plain
walking skirt 1t is fitted around the
hips, but spreads widely below. It is
made without ornamentation of any
kind, but is finished with two or three
plain bands around the cot These
bands are of velvet, sewei upon the
upper edge only, so as to set out well
and make pretty finish for the skirt.
: The five gored skirt is also one of
the popular designs, but it needs to
be trimmed, and the wide, handsome
border Of heavy lace around the bot
tom is favorite way of trimming this
style of skirt. Still another popular
method is that of applying ruffle
about a foot wide, with heading of
lace, or with piping of silk, or some
fat velvet bands.
The killed skirt is much il. evidence,
and there are skirts that are made
with the plaits turning back sharply
from the front. They are wide and so
arranged as to leave very broad
front panel, which is ornamented in
some manner. This wide front panel
may be trimmed with lace or with
a braided design.
The use of lace upon winter skirts
may seem questionable stretch of
appropriateness, yet when one sees
the beautiful winter gowns that are !
trimmed with lacy materials one is
forced to change ones mind as to the
use of lace on winter gowns. Many of
the handsomest winter costumes are
trimmed with filmy materials. Lace
dyed, tan lace, brown lace and laces
in black and white are all much worn |
The mixed fabrics are SO pretty |
that they need little or no decoration |
AID many of the dressmakers abso
lutely refuse to trim them in anyway, |
declaring that it spoils woman's
lines to break up the pattern with

sERMoNETTE.

Sin, however great, is as moth
Ing when the forqiving grace of
God Is taken into account.
. "Where sin abounds, grace
| doth much more abound"
|. 1t Is an awful thing to be
!. great sinner, but there Is more
. awful thing, and that is for the
sinner to know no repentance.
David sinned, oh, so grievous-
ly, committing almost every sin
in the decalogue, but he repent
ed most sloriousIy, and herein
is to be found the bright side
Of this dark picture.
Out Of the depths into which
his sin had cast him David
looked up into the face of a
forgiving God and found help.
And notice how his sense of
guilt shuts out every one but
God.
against thee, thee only, have
sinned."
This was not literally true,
neither did David mean IL so.
) But what he did mean was that
sin when committed is first Of
} all and above all committed
against God.
Such consciousness Of the re-
lation of the soul to God is the
evidence of true repentance. To !
realize that first of all the sin
has been committed against God .
and that it is there that the
soul must first come for forgive :
ness and cleansing prepares and ,
fits the soul for the further .
steps of true repentance, which
are open confession, as COM .
plete restoration as is possible .
to those wronged, and reconciI-
iation with man as we'll as God. .
True repentance also means a
turning from sin, or as the little .
girl put il: Feeling bad enough .
to quit. .
Yes, David's sin was great,
but his repentance was great, !
also. And herein, am per-
suaded, was one of the ele- !:
ments of his character which /.
made him a man "after Gods I
own heart" 1t was because of !
his desperate need that he !.
could in faith claim so much of !.
God. AS Christ said, in rebuke !
to the seIf-righteous Pharisee 1
when the sinful woman came !
weeping, washing his feet. with I
her tears and wiping them with ]
the hairs of her head: "Her Z
sins which are many, are for !;
given; for she loved much; but I
to whom little is forgiven, the !
same Ioveth little. 1
II man Is great sinner, God !
has provided greater Saviour, I
whose "blood cleanseth from /

The sum Of human guilt is J:
never equal to the sum of the I
Divine mercy. I
Paul, the apostle, saw himself Z
the chiefest of sinners, but at I
the same time he saw that I
Christ was sable to save unto 4
the uttermost." /
This, then, is ever the bright Z
side of the picture OF human j,
guilt: Sin vanishing before the Z
cleansing power Of the blood Of I
