lars and cuffs of ermine. They are
fastened with braided ornaments and
are exceedingly good to look at. If
possible, muffs are larger than ever.
Their general effect, however, is fiat
and last years muff is usually iden-
tilted by It's wealth of heads and tails,
in contrast to the ultra modish muff
of broad, fiat effect, with possibly a
center strip of contrasting fur.
Tailored suits are very stunning in
checks and stripes for southern wear.
Then there are delicious little one
piece frocks. The distinguishing fea-
lures of the latter are tunics, which
are draped in every imaginable form.
Straight and narrow, however, they
are about as effective as it is possible
to make them. The taffetas seem
predestined to spring popularity.
Paris has done much with them this
winter, as has also New York, but it
is believed that during the spring
they will assume the proportions Of
genuine craze. Each season has to
have its ultra-popular mode and prob
ably the taffeta frock will furnish the
vehicle for Dame Fashions ride into
heart Of the universally popular.
With the increasing popularity Of
taffeta however, particularly with
the enthusiastic Partisan endorsement
of this silk in black and white, mod
els more adaptable than those which
now prevail abroad will be evolved
Indeed good results are already being
obtained by using taffeta lavishly in
connection with wool, as satin has
been used during recent seasons.
A house frock or informal evening
gown of taffeta is a most practical
possession and a recent model in pink
shot with white is most likable. The
skirt, instead Of being shirred into
the waistband and held in lower
down after the "qu-int" style to a
ngure not sylyhlike is in three SEC
tons, the uppermost section glove
fitting. those below smooth but wild
ening in a faint ripple, and the edge
of each section a fiounce scalloped
and bound with the taffeta.
The waistline is just trife raised
and a soft sash girdle with two seal
loped ends falling at the left front
encircles the waist broadly. Into this
girdle the fulness of the bodice, which
is entirely of softly draped fine lace,
is drawn and one big American beau
ty rose is thrust into the girdle among
the creamy folds of lace. A girlish
frock this and yet in other coloring

Group ENDS LIFE
Many Children Die Of Group Every
Year Before Doctor Can be
Summoned.

Parents of children should be pre-
pared at all times for a spasm of
Group.
Keep in the house a remedy that
will give instant relief and keep the
child from checking until the arrival
of the physician.
Get so cent bottle of HYOMEI to-
day and in case of an attack of Group
pour 20 drops into kitchen bowl of
boiling water. Hold the child's head
over the bowl so that it can breathe
the soothing, penetrating vapor that
arises. In the meantime send for a
physician.
This treatment has saved the lives
of many children and is a precaution
that all parents should promptly take.
HYOMEI is sold by The Owl Drug
Store and druggists everywhere and
is guaranteed for Group, catarrh, asth-
ma and bronchitis.

IN THE WORLD OF DRESS.
*=%******"**~~

New York, Jan. 24.-Although we
are between seasons there are visions
OF sartorial loneliness that bespeak
modes of the season that is and seas
ons to be. Handsome fur coats in
designs that are yet novel remind us
in addition to the biting cold-that
winter is with us. Filmy chiffons and
spic and span linens tell us that it is
time for all who can indulge them
selves to shift to warmer climes, and
already the specials to Palm Beach,
Miami and Daytona are ladened with
feminine loneliness in the parlor cars
and sartorial extravaganza in the bag
gage coaches.
There are two or three little de-
tails that should be taken up in the
beginning of this letter, for they may
be overlooked later, yet they are of
great importance for the woman in
search of novelties. One a hat
trimming-or rather toque decora-
ton, for it is seldom seen on any
thing except the small close-fitting
toques of odd shape. Black, brown,
dark green or purple toques in silk
and satin-which replace velvet for
southern wear-are delightfully."-
trimmed with simple wreaths of sill
yer leaves. Then if there is a bow
of the hat material, it is lined with
silver gauze to complete the effect.
Many of the new hats which were
designed by Paris .dress-makers for
the Riviera show this treatment and
they have been hurried to this side of
the big pond" for the delectation of
the American sisterhood.
Then there is the little lace coat.
1t is entirely different from the lace
coat of former seasons, for 1t is really
more of a blouse arranged to be worn
on the outside of the skirt, than it is
blouse. 1t is slightly short-waisted,
there are double cords in place of
belt and the front is trimmed with
wide lapel of its own material on one
side and a jabot of net or exquisite
lace on the other. The sleeves are
made in one with the coat. reach to
the elbow, are small and finished with
ruffies of plated chiffon or lace.
These coats are made of Irish lace,
when in their greatest elegance.
Princess lace, Lierre and many Of the |
other less expensive laces can be
used with just as much effect and |
when cable shirrings of black satin |
are mixed in with the lace of the |
jabot or used to edge the revers, the |
effect is made additionally rich.
For the present season there are
handsome new coats. Fur coats
with contrasting pelts have |
been so fashionable this winter that
some of the spring models are going |
to carry out the same effect One
finds, for instance, very handsome
black cloth coat trimmed with braid
ed cloth at the bottom, with revers
and cuffs of the same. carrying pre-
ciseiy the effect Of the seal and mon
key skin coats trimmed with Persian
lamb.

In the Lord Jesus Christ without having
ever seen him. The reason of this was
that Paul was the chosen one of the
Lord, the chosen to see him and bear tes-
timony 20 the world of his eternal power.
But it is not impossible for us as Ehrig-

up to Him and to see Him and believe in

This brings US TO conversion. Tile
conversion OF Paul was completed, but
Ii our conversion complete? Conversion
means perfect humanity to belong TO
the deity of the Lord Christ, the perfect
man. We have to be perfect men TO be
true Christians That is where Christian
ty leads above paganism. Its mission Is
to compile humanity In the perfection OF
Jesus Christ, and the true Christian Is
the man most like Christ, who was the
perfect man.
"Pauls conversion was for the perfec-
tion of our spiritual life, that he might
go forth unto the world and preach the
gospel which would eventually cleanse
the world of all wickedness. The CONVEX

OF infinite good in creating pure thought,
which is so necessary to the true CONVEX
