IDEA FOR KEEPING
DRESS IN CONDITION

A business woman who makes fire.
quent trips abroad has evolved an ex-
cellent idea for keeping her gown in
good condition.
Her plan entails considerable work
at first, as she makes pasteboard pack
ing boards and covers them with n
cheap percale.
When these cases are slipped over
the board the ends are sewed up and
tapes to fasten in the gown securely
are sewed 10 the cover at equal dist
ances on each side and on the ends,
that tie in the center.
The garment is thus held sure.
In laying in the skirt all the plaits,
tucks and other fullnoss are smooth
ed in place as it would naturally
hang.
Each gown or skirt and shirt waist
has its pasteboard, that has been cut
just small enough TO fit inside the
trunk.
With this arrangement a dress may
be taken from the trunk without dis
arranging any of the others.

II does not speak we'll for our col
leges devoted to the education Of girls
when a public boast is made that the
graduation of class of young women
meant an exhibition OF gowns and ac-
cessories aggregating $4,000 in value.
For some time the college has had n
reputation for leading in the matter
of smart clothes. and that has actaul-
~ been the reason why it was select
ed by some parents. Apparently
clothes count for more than brain

DR.. JOHNSON
AT WEST CHURCH
Methodist Clergyman Preach
eS Two Sermons TO City
PresbyterianS

The Rev. Amos Johnson, d. D., pas
tor of Goodman NJ 10. Church. Phlla-
delphia. occupied the pulpit Of West
Presbyterian Church yesterday in tho
absence of the pastor. the Rev. Alex
ander Alison. Jr. who is on his vaca-
tion. DR.. johnson spoke morning and
evening. In his sermon in the evening
he said:
Jesus Christ. with Moses and Elias
stood In cloud of out-breakinS
glory. Being free from sin, they
could stand IN the eternal burnings.
From the OF shining cloud they heard
the voice OF God saying. This is my
beloved son. hear ye him. Tho un-
impeachable testimony OF all the
evangelists Is that Jesus was trans
formed before them, that his face
shone like the sun and that his gar
ments were as white as the light.
John says: We were witnesses of
his glory and Peter says: We were
eve witnesses OF his majesty when we
we're with him in the mount The
glory departeth. Moses and ELIAS dis
appeared and they saw no man save
: Jesus only. That is the theme of tho
hour.
"rhe first lesson is that Jesus is
God manifest In the flesh. dust and
divinity; onqr devine personality In
e which no one ciii tell where DIVINITY
= left off and flesh commenceo. ny
sequel to this is that through tn
atonement we become facsimiles o
+, the God man. The word Jesus chal
lenges our most serious and prayer

on our hands. and they are multiply

ffty-one kinds: the negro problem,
the problem Of capital and labor. civic,
economic, political, financial and tenn
perance problems, which Gladstone de-
clared was greater than war; pestl-
lence and famine; problems of the new
cults. new religions and fadisms Of ali
sorts. The world is almost fiercely
demanding that the church settle these

TO KEEP TRUNKS
IN GOOD REPAIR

The outside Of a trunk is not the
only part that gets battered and un-
slightly. although there ar no Inter
ior'' baggage smashers. When the
hinges and lining become torn and
soiled they may be replaced at home.
Strong tape, securely fastened with
taclxs. makes excellent inside hinges.
Body and lid may be lined with moire
wall paper. the edges neatly finished
with passe partout binding.
The paper should be put on with good
wall paper paste and allowed to dry
