Apropos of the two-tonsd color
schemes mention should be made OF
the chic knockabout parasols In fine
natural tone pongee lined with change
able silk in the pongee color or some
shade approximating it and brighter
color
Some OF the most knowing little
street costumes are also seen trimmed
with green and eyelet embroidered
froeks ornamented at the bottom with
folds of soft green satin OF the most
brilliant tone are among the most ef-
fective things that the Partisan dress
makers have sent over this summer.
In the matter of dress details there
are two or three things that are worth
mentioning more than casually, be-
cause they may foreshadow the modes
of early fall. One is the persistence
with which long, close sleeves appear
among models from some OF the ex-
elusive houses. They are certainly
not so comfortable for summer wear
as the three-quarter and elbow sleeve,
but the abuse of the very short open
sleeve which already impresses one
n conjunction with street attire, makes
one view with degree OF gratitude a
trim, simple one-piece frock with
sleeves fitted snugly down quite to the
hand.
II is fortunate that well-dressed
women have taken kindly to striped
effects, for they are to be among the
patterns for materials featured by eX-
elusive manufacturers and dressmaK'
ers. It is impossible to write thor
oughly up-to-the-minute fashion letter
without mentioning these FABRICS
They are prettier and more refined as
| they grow in vogue, which is one rea
son for their continued popularity.
Bedford cords, exquisitely striped in
gray and white. are being used. fol
some splendid tailored frocks fol
morning and walking wear. The pref
ltiest have pure white facings OF Bed
ford cord with white covered buttons
land false buttonholes Of coarse white
|cord. With some gay color such al
green, cerise or French blue, concen
Itrated in the parasol and belt anC
stockings, which in some way or othe
are certain to assert themselves, suci
costumes are both pretty and cor
lrect

TENT MEETING CONTINUES

While the A. & NJ commencement
somewhat diminished the attendance,
at the tent yesterday and last night,
still good services were held. The
morning service took the turn OF a
prayer meeting and everyone present
greatly enjoyed 1t.
Last night the evangelist spoke on
Psalms $40: And they that know
Thy name will put their trust In
Thee" The emphasis was placed upon
the Importance of everyone publicly
taking a stand for the Lord. The best
way to show that ones trust is In the
Lord is to come out and unite with
the church. II we know Gods name,
II we have been saved, we owe 1t to
ourselves, we owe it to our fellow
man. we owe 1t to our God, to be His
disciples and publicly confess Him.
One united with the church for bap-
tism. The sermon made deep I'M
preston on all present.
Services in the day one hour, from
10 to IL o'clock. Night services VIII
closely promptly at $3.50. Everybody
Is invited to attend.

the catch that held the molten metal,
but the boy disobeyed the caution. and
when he saw the metal flowing into
the mold he called the founder.
The latter rushed In and. seeing. as
he thought. his work of weeks undone
and his masterpiece ruined. struck the
boy a blow that caused his immediate
death. When the metal cooled and
the mold was opened the bell was
found to be not only perfect. but OF
marvellous sweetness of tone.
The founder gave himself up to the
authorities. was tried and condemned
to death. On the day of his execution
the bell was rung to call people to at
tend church and offer prayer for the
unhappy mans soul. and from that II
obtained the name Of ''the poor sin

The 4uo Bible,

The bug Bible was printed in 1912
BY the authority of Edward VI. anu
its curiosity lies in the rendering OF
the fifth verse of the Ninety-hrst
Psalm. which. as we know. runs
Thou shalt not be afraid for the ter
ror by night nor fer the arrow which
flieth by day." but In the above YER
sion it ran. 80 thou shalt not nede to
be afraid of any bugges by night"
Ludicrous as this sounds. 1t is not
etymologically without justification.
Bug is derived from the Welsh word
.bwg." which meant hobgoblin or
terrifying specter. Specification trace
able In the word commonly In use to-
day" bugbear"-and Shakespeare once
or twice uses the word In this primary
sense. notably when he makes Hamlet
say, "Such bugs and COLLINS In my

Fl. Anthony Dyer. painter OF water
colors. was explaining the matter to
some possible buyers of his wares.
suppose while you are in the coun-
try in summer" said he, you chance
upon HOlstein COW grazing on hill
side. Hosteins. Of course you know.
are black and white. The pasture Is
green. OF at one side is a gray I'M
painted barn. Do you stagger with
surprise when you notice that that COW
is purple? Not bit of it. II it were
not purple you might reasonably con-
suit an oculist. That would be sign
that your eyes needed attention.
p But you may never have tried to
figure out why the COW is purple. Here
is the answer: The complementary
color of the green pasture is red. The
sight of green always suggests red, al
though we don't realize It, Flooding
the scene Is the yellow sunshine. The
yellow the red and the green combine
TO tint the grazing neutral coored
COW purple. and purple it undeniably
is. as you must admit when next you
encounter one under such circum-
stances. Nevermore. therefore. may
you sing with Gelett Burgess:
