to remember the Masters ability to-
come to them on the troubled seas,
and how His coming brought peace
and quiet.
Thus their hearts may have been
led to look for Him who instructed
them, Il will never leave nor forsake
thee;" and again, 10 / am with you
alway, even to the end OF the Age"
And this precious lesson still holds
good for all who are truly the Lords
people-all who have made a. Cove
nant by sacrifice with the Lord who
have presented their bodies living
sacrifices through the merit of Jesus.
He is with them continually, TO sane
tify to them their deepest distress.
"Lord, Save, or / Perish!S
ST. Matthew gives an additional
feature of this lesson not recorded by
st. Mark. He tells us that when St
Peter learned that It. was Jesus who
walked upon the sea, he requested
the Lord to sanction his walking on
the water to Him. The Lord con-
sented, and ST. Peter had the wonder
full courage to make the effort. Had
his faith continued, doubtless he would
have been sustained. but the Lords
rule with His people seems to be, "Ac-
cording to thy faith p It unto thee"
We are not to encourage credulity in
ourselves or others, but we are to re-
member that faith which has a true
foundation is very precious in the
Lords sight.
In st. Peters case it was entirely
proper that he should attempt to go
to the Lord, because the effort had
been sanctioned. II would have been
credulity for him to have supposed
himself able to walk on the water,
without the Lords sanction and in
vitation. But when he saw the bois-
ferrous waves his faith failed, he be-
gan to sink; and he cried, Save, or I
perishl" How true it is of all Gods
people that like ST. Peter they would
like to do some wonderful thing 20

st. Peter the Teachable.
Much has been said respecting St
Peters rashness and the difficulties he
repeatedly got into. The criticism
is surely to some extent justified, but
we are to remember that the Master
loved him greatly. partly on account

Apostles he was evidently one of the
most meek and most teachable of them

guarded through the many dangers
natural to his temperament; and he
stands forth in the Scriptures as one
OF the very noblest OF the Apostles.
There must have been a great strain
continually upon the Great Teacher
and Healer. for He was continually ex-
pending His vitality in both directions
at once. In healing the sick. virtue.

He healed them all. we read And all
His public teaching cost considerable
vitality. especially when He addressed
large multitudes. Thus was fulfilled
in part the saying of the Prophet re-
specting Him, Himself took our sick
nesses and bore our infirmites."
Nevertheless. we find Him ever alert
about the Fathers business. and look
ing after the welfare Of and inatruct-
ing all who gave evi1ence of being
or of ever becoming, children OF God.

did we not hear His word saying, 10,

4 DAINTY DANCING FRoCK.

Dancing frocks OF the season are
really fascinating; they are so dainty
and vet so simple. This one is made
of p quaint little lowered silk with
trimming of plain silk on the skirt
and of velvet ribbon on the bertha.
The new volvets are so soft and pill
able that they take beautiful folds and
they serve purposes of this kind ad-
mirably we'll Added to its charm,
the dress has the advantage OF being
very simple and easy to make. The
skirt is just a two-piece one and the
blouse is quite simple with "set-in"
sleeves over which the bertha falls.
In this case. the trimming is all ar
ranged on indicated lines, but, in the
back view, It is shown with the trim
ming applied to give tunic effect and
that treatment is charming in diff
fent way. The design lends itself
to. various needs also and, with the
addition Of a yoke and under sleeves,
the dress can be made available for
afternoon occasions. There are so
many pretty materials adapted to
girls dresses that It is impossible
to enumerate them. The lowered
silks are charming and the plain
crepes and simpler satins are lively.
Chiffon cloths always a delight and

NifF YORK, Act. 5.--Interest in the
world of fashion has centered during
the past month in the fall openings
of the big dry goods and dressmaking
establishments. Costumes directly
imported from Paris have stood side
by side with adaptations of the same
ideas from our own designers, giving
point to the much discussed theme Of
American styles for American women.
Undoubtedly the rank and file of the
women of this land do prefer a modi-
Ned form of the extreme modes which
originate in the ateliers of the French
costumers, for exact reproductions Of
the ultra models are rarely seen here
in any assemblage OF representative
women. At the same time as things
are now arranged, We must seek the
basis of our designs in France, or in
some place where fashions are a sub
ject of historical study and where de-
signing is ranked as serious art.
When artists on this side of the At
lantic fee, the importance of this
