Your old braid can be made this way
for $3.50. A new treatment for hair
which has become gray or faded or
is falling out is in force here, also,
and has many patrons, who say that
it has done wonders for them.
A very smart suit of black satin is
among the newest styles exhibited in
a French shop in F street, near the
corner Of Twelfth street This Is of
the modish black satin. the skirt cut
perfectly plain and the coat in a Rus
sian blouse style. The coat Is collar
less, after a very late idea, narrow
revers being simulated by means of a
design executed with puffings and
cordings of the material. A very
swagger blouse shown by the same
shop, and one that has just arrived
from Paris, is of black chiffon, with
a very deep sailor collar and cuffs of
white oreandy. in which are set bands
of ecru lace insertion. The collar
doesn't extend quite to the neck in
front, but the ;rund style is accentu-
ated by fold OF black satin, ending
in a small how.
Some very attractive novelties for
st. Patrick's Day favors are found
in a shop in Fourteenth street, be-
tween F and G. Besides the usual
ideas in the Irishman's pipe. his stove
pipe hat, his hod. the shillalah,
there is an entirely new thing in the
ahead of lettuce made of tissue paper,
with a balloon inside that when blown
up develops into a pig. Mints in
the shape of shamrocks, potatoes
which are made of cocoanut candy
coated with cinnamon, peas in a pod
OF pistachio are some of the novel

on the 18th of this month, which is

A department store in G street sells
more hose OF the kind labeled 'Kno-
tair" than all the rest in stock put
together. This is due to the great
wearing quality Of this kind of stock
ing and the fact that with six pairs
OF Isle finish hose. that sell for s.
box, or for the same number of silk
Isle at $3 a box, coupons are given
guaranteeing new hose for any of
these which have holes in them be-
fore six months have passed. The
woman who buys these feels that she
is safe in so doing, and naturally so.
Unlike many of the guaranteed hose,
these are soft and of light weight.

day offers It for sale at 7s cents

inches in width. All the leading spring
colors are to be had at this price with
black as well.
Nowadays such exquisite effects are
designed by the workers in imitation
Jewels that the woman whose means
are limited can console herself by
wearing these, if she is. careful in the
selection Of her ornaments. The
lovely, fragile effects after the French
styles are especially pretty In the
good limitations, and one who loves
odd gems can find some attractive
pieces in" "a novelty jewelry store in
Ninth street. between F and G, at
popular prices.

Two very, smart things of this kind
are shown in a small French shop
in F street, between Twelfth and
Thirteenth. One is of black marqui-
sette gathered at the bottom in the
back in a band of satin and with cir
cular fronts, also trimmed with the
satin, which is one of the distinctive
notes of the new fashions. The collar
is of this, with a rever of white and
black striped satin to relieve the SOM
berness of the otherwise all black ef-
feet. The second wrap is even more
artistic, showing a vivid color in the
lining of the coral chiffon, which is
used to form a scarf around the
shoulders and reaching to the hem in

atOr Depew. There will. be a dinner at
RaUsCher's Tuesday evening. and on
Wednesday evening a public platform
service at D. A. r. Hall. at which Dr..
Barbour and DR.. Steiner will speak.
Topics TO Be Discussed.
The convention will be made up OF
delegates from Delaware. Maryland, and
the District OF Columbia. 1t is expected
that there will be about 80. probably 100
from out Of the city
Among the topics which will be taken
up for discussion are the relation of the
Y. NJ. c. \. to the immigrant, TO the
young man away from home, to country
life. and 10 China.
The first topic will be the subject of an
address by Or Steiner, OF Grinnell Col
lege, Iowa. author of 'On the Trail of
lile llllllllE dllA anu llllllstli q steer q &c
Immigrant from Austria. He will speak
at the platform meeting Wednesday
evening. Secretary Whitford. of the
Buffalo Y. NJ. c. A, will speak of the
young man away from home at this
meeting. Mr. Whitford has recently di-
rected the building of a Mems Hotel
as auxiliary to the Y. NJ. C. A. and after
the Mills Hotel idea.
Innovation in Work.
An innovation of Y. NJ. c. A. work in
the vicinity of Washington is the de-
velopment of associations in the small
towns and rural communities. The in
terstate committee has been setting
plans for establishing the work in
Talbot County. on the Eastern Shore
of Maryland and in April the unique
plan of county work will be put into
operation. What the needs of the
county communities are and how the
Y. NJ c. a. can adapt itself to meet the
peculiar conditions of rural life through
the county plan of organization will
be the theme of addresses by Hon. Will
let VI. Hays and Henry Israel, of New
York.
The Importance of this new phase of
the work is apparent when it is re-
called that the population of Mary
land and Delaware is largely rural.
while in the District of Columbia itself
there are several outlying cOmmuni-
ties too small to support associations
of the ordinary type.
The Chinese associations will be rep
resented by Mr.. Kaison Tong. of Pc
kin, a secretary in China's department
of foreign affairs, who has been presi-
dent of the associations at Shanghai
and Hongkong. Mr.. Tong is a Yale
graduate, class of 'S4.
Chief Justice Stanton J. Peelle, of the
United States Court of Claims, is chair
man of the interstate committee, and
F. S. Morrison secretary. The commit
tee having the convention in charge
consists of Francis A. White, Balti-
more; William Knowles Cooper, Wash
ington, and ]. H. Apple, of Frederick.

COnEregntfon Last Night.
Rev. E Hez Sven, pastor of Capital
Baptist Church, preached a sermon last
night before a large audience in Typo
graphical Temple, 423 G street north
west DR.. Swem took for his theme
THE best for all humanity is the spir-
itual.'
THE best in life isn't environment, but
is being what God wants US to be- said
Mr.. SVEN. I'VE think that we are put
in this world to enjoy ourselves, but we
arn put here for loss. anxiety, and suf-
fering. A Washington woman once told
me that she would be happier II she were
a man. II her wish had been granted her
she would not have been happy. because
true happiness can only be realized by
being what God wants US to be, and
doing the things He wants us to do.

new conception of what an American
church should be is declared by those in
position to know to lie at the bottom
Of the rumors concerning a possible
change of the Rev. DR.. Charles F. Aked
from New York to San Francisco. In
New York this English preacher is pas
tor of the Baptist congregation of which
the Rockefellers are part. The church Is
not new and its seating capacity is small
DR.. Aked asks the construction of new
church to contain a big auditorium. He
says he can fill IL. Indications are that
he can. There is no doubt Of his popu-
larity as a pulpiteer. Plans for new
church were drawn and accepted. but
they did not include the large auditorium.
A compromise was effected, but II did not
last. The truce ended. and since then
those who know conditions have been
looking for a resignation Whether II
may be to accept a San Francisco place,
or one elsewhere remains to be seen. DR..
Aked asks big auditorium. Trustees OF
the Fifth Avenue Baptist Church refuse
to erect one. Their reason Is its COM

or a man Of his type The new tendency
is toward the small church. 1t Is thar
tendency that DR.. Aked runs into. There
is no effort at money saving. The case Is
one of rigid and what the trustees feel to

Until the recent death of Archbishop

long period in which few deaths had oc-
CURED in the Roman Catholic hierarchy
in this country. There was considerable
growth in it last year, with the number
of bishops increased from IS to 81. There
are now twelve archbishops. The direc-
tory gives the list of cardinals in the
Sacred College, showing no fewer than
twenty vacancies, among the greatest
number ever obtaining under any one
Pope Cardinal Gibbons ranks fifth in the
college, having been created on June Z,
1856
In its survey of the church throughout
the world, the directory finds much to
encourage. There has been marked ad-
vance in organization, in education. and
with four new diOceses and one prefec-
ture. In China, Japan, and Brazil there
has been much growth of late. Especially
to be commended, the directory thinks, is
the tremendous strides which American
Catholics are making in the amounts of
contributions to church extension in for
eign countries. Americans are doing bet
ter than ever before, and rapidly forging
ahead in generosity to equal many older
CATHOLIC countries.
The Catholics of Washington owe a
debt OF gratitude to the Catholic Con-
vert League and to the children OF
Mary OF the Sacred Heart for the pub
lication-T the catalogue entitled 'Catho-
lie Topics and Authors in the Public
Library of the District of Columbia" :"
The value of the work to the Catholic
laity can scarcely be overestimabed.
