Bondage Without Escape

Now and again, in the course of the
marvellous processes through which AL
oiphron passed. he was allowed to catch
a sight of the form of the young priest
ess whom he had seen first at the feast
of the moon
But always was she yeiled, and al
ways was the glimpse of her fleeting.
At length the noyitiate was ending
and Alciphron. dazed and alone in a
subterranean temple, was left there by
the priests to await his last trial.
All that he had seen, while bewilder-
ing and astonishing him, had brought
him no nearer what lie sought, the se-
cret of life everlasting.
Yet he now felt himself helpless. dag

A Face in the Shadow,

They were all lovely, but there was
one. glimpse of whose face he saw as
he peered around the column, one whose
face the light had not yet reached, SO
downcast did she hold it.
There was yet something in those half
seen features. that downcast face, which
riveted all the Athenian's looks and
thoughts. There was a charm in every
shadow which hung over that imagined
beauty.
Suddenly there was-the loud clash of a
thousand cymbals-the massy gates which
divided the vestibule from the temple
proper few open as if by magic and a
flood of radiance illuminated the whole
vestibule, while at the same time. as if
the souods and lights were born together.
a rich peal of harmony came mingling
with the radiance.

Part of this story she told Alciphron
then, there on the island in the lake,
and part after they had embarked upon
boat which she had begged him to
hail from the many for help which
passed through on their way to the
Nile.

Novelties in Separate skirts.

According to the Dry Goods Eco
nomist, the number of novelties now
in the market has helped materially
to stimulate business in separate
skirts. There has been a big demand
this fall for skirts made of dark rich
plaids. novelty cords, ratines and 9th
er novelty fabrics.
Silk skirts, including crepe de
chine. crepe meteor, moires and fail
lies, are being taken in moderate
quantities. A few high class velvet
skirts have been ordered for the op-
enings also some of fur fabrics, par
ticularly broadtail. Corduroys in
white and in colors are expected to
be good.
The use of sashes or girdles at the
waist line Is noted on many of the
higher priced numbers In some in
stances this girdle or sash is of fan
cy braid, but in the majority of cases
1t is of ribbon.
While the slashed skirt is still to be
found in the lines. in most cases the
slashes are of moderate depth. In
some instances the skirts have but
tons and buttonholes so they can be
worn open or closed, at the discretion
Of the wearer.
While there has been considerable
discussion about skirts being made wi
der, up to the present time they aver
age from / IL to l "a yards around

asking for two-yard skirts.
