It is wide and much nafcd anei On the lower edge is gathered rufflc about three inches in width of the silk which is fringed out in a way to show the rose-colored edge and on the under side of the skirt is a soft deep puff of the rose-colorcd silk caught here and there with punches of roses The deep bodice portion shows q guimpc of white lace and there is an oddly shaped silk portion drawn up over the guimpc at the lower edge which is finished with tiny little fringcd-out ruh1e and there are also over sleeves of the silk that extend from the wrists to about the elbows, only the lace ap- bearing above.
 An exceedingly handsome coat suit of tafeta adapted to afternoon visits and the like is made of striped silk, blue with dull rich coloring in contrast combined with plain blue. The skirt is wide and circular but is cut shorter at the front to droop at the sides, back and at the front to reveal an under skirt of black satin for depth of four or five inches. There is bodice of the striped silk trimmed with the plain with chc1nisette of fine lace and there is also a fancy little coat of the plain blue with trimming of the striped material. It makes an cx- ceedingly beautiful costume and an especially interesting one, because of the shaping of the skirt While it is not at all likely that such feature will be taken UP for the costume of general wear it undoupt edly will appear cn those of more exceptional use and whcn well handled, it assuredly pos sesses charm of its own.

They are not essentially practical fol cue can hardly think of apply ing them to anything but the ex- ceptlonal costume and it is hardly probable tbat they will come into anything like general use, but they are interesting and smart and certainly a departure A very beautiful gown that has just been un- packed is made of faille silk in one of the rich and beautiful shades of blu, that Is not quite so dark as navy. The skirt is Cut in nine gores that flare most generously at their lower edge but are by no means narrow at the belt for at that point, the skirt i, gathered. Each gore is shaped to be longer at the edges than at the center and while the difference is not great,
 
 1t gives very novel line the shape ot each gore being not unlike that oi an umbrella section. At the seams are sewed little drop ornaments and as a matter of course, the skirt is short. The shaped edge also means that the under side is apparent as the wearer walks, consequently the skirt is faceI with white satin and the lower edges ot this facing is finished with silver braid approximately one inch in width. The bodice illustrates the tendency toward simplicity and re- serve in trimming and at the same time gives evidence of the resourceful- ness with which these simple models are relieved of over-severity. It is cut out at the front in the form of q rectangle and at the back. it is surplce and the surplice ends are extended to form a sash. The guimpe is of white satin with high stock collar ;, and two rows of tiny white satin but tons down the front outlining the edge of the bodice and on the white satin is q row of silver braid The closing is made at the front where the edges arc laced together with a silk lacing of brilliant cardinal red and in this touch of bright color, the artists hand is felt. A dinner costume somewhat more elaborate than the preceding one but also suggesting the skirt that is shaped at the lower edge is made of two-toned taffeta and to obtain the peculiar shade, the wool is dull blue ard theT warp is shade of rose. The skirt is cut to form four rather deep points, two at each a:-!e oi the front and two at#cacA side of li!e back

HOUR DRAWS
 MANY LITTLE PEOPLE
Mrs. Arie Nash Delights "kldd;cs' With Recital of Wholesome
 Stories.

The capacity of the spacious as- sembly' hall of the chamber of com merce was taxed between the hours of 4 and 5 yesterday afternoon, with boys and girls who were present to attend the first of series of Satur- day afternoon story hour gatherings to be held in connection with the work of operating the public library
 The very large attendance was a most delightful surprise to the ladies who bad planned the affair, especial- ly as it was the first of the story hours The children came early, and displayed the greatest of interest. Il was difficult to judge who were the most pleased over the affair, the la dies or the children.
 Mrs. Arie Nash, who is talented and who has had training in that particular line, told the stories, eacn of which caused much pleasure to all the little folks. Mrs. c. w. Pet tigrew, Mrs. H. w. Cook, and other ladies of the library association were in attendance, and aided in looking after the comfort and welfare of the children
 After the children had departed f, | their homes, with enthusiastic prom ise sthat they would come every Saturday, and would bring theii friends, the ladies of the library as- sociation exchanged ngratulations and began figuring on place of meeting that will be big enough to hold all the youngsters that will likely attend the story hour sessions in the future. The attendance yes terday aggregated more than 30 children, about evenly divided be- tween the boys and the girls.

THE HOLY GHOST AND HIS
GIFTS.

We are not adverse to receiving
gifts; but strangely enough we show
little anxiety to approach the Giver
of all good gifts, those good and per-
feet gifts that come from aboyey
descending from the Father of Light.
We are always signing for comfort
and consolation, and, indeed, often
stand in sore need of them, yet we
think last of all of approaching Him,
Who is the Comforter, the Consider,
Whose Name is Paraelete; to Whom
in the mysterious economy of Heaven,
is appropriated the task of filling our
hearts with strength and courage, and
the wine of gladness. The Holy
Ghost is only anxious that we should
implore His mercy and open our
bosoms for the outpouring of His
gifts. We ask insistently enough at
times for earthly favours-for sue
cess, prosperity, health, escape from
difficulties, from disgrace, bereave-
ment, pain And we are so dis
appointed if we do not Immediately
get visible answer to- our petitions,
that our very faith Is tried We feel

THE soLAcE OF CONFESSION.

How many are the souls in distress,
anxiety, or loneliness, where the one
need is to find being to whom they
can pour out their feelings unheard by
the world, writes Cardinal Newman.
Tell them out they must. They can
not tell them but to those whom they
see every hour; they want to tell them
and not to tell them. And they want
to tell out, and yet be as if they were
not told; they wish to tell them, yet
are not strong to despise them; they
wish to tell them to one who can. at
once advise and sympathise with
them; they wishFto relieve themselves
of a load in order to gain a solace; to
receive the assurance that there is
one who thinks of them, and one to
whom they can betake themselves, if
necessary, from time to time, while
they are in the world.
How many Protestant heart would
leap at the news of such benefit, put
ting aside all ideas of sacramental
ordinances altogether If there is a
heavenly idea In the Catholic Church
looking at it simply as an idea
surely, next after the Blessed Sacra-
ment, confession is such. And such
it is ever found, in fact; the very act
of kneeling, the low and contrite voice,
the sign of the cross, hanging, so to
say, over the head bowed low; and
the words of peace and blessing, de-
clare it. Oh, what a soothing charm
is there which the world can neither
give nor take away! Oh, what a
piercing, heart-subduing tranquility,
provoking tears of joy, is poured al
most substantially and physically upon
the soul-the oil of gladness, as the
Scripture calls it-when the patient
at length arises, his God reconciled to
him, his sins rolled away forever!
That is confession as it is in fact, as
those who bear witness to it know by
experience.

A SAINT FOR THE WEEK.
SAINT ARA.

st. Afra is a great model of that
enduring contrition and confidence in
Gods mercy which are the two marks
of true conversion She was taken
at Augsburg, where her life had given
public scandal, and was ordered to-
offer sacrifice. She answered humbly
that her past sins had been enough;
and added that though unworthy to.
die for Christ, to whom she confessed
her crimes daily, still, she desired to
do SO, and to wash her stains in
blood. In vain the Judge tainted her
with pretending. to be Christian.
She told him that Christ came to save
sinners; and consoled herself with
the thought of St Mary, Magdalen, the
penitent thief, ard the other examples
of Christ's mercy.
After her examination she was taken
to an island in the river Lech and
burnt alive. To the last she perse-
vered in prayer and penance Her
tears fell as the flames rose around
her, and the Christians heard her
praying aloud. 20 Lord Jesus Christ"
she said, "Thou earnest to call sinners
to penance; receive in this hour the
penance of my sufferings, and save
me by this fire from fire eternal. Thou
alone vast offered on the Cross vic
tim for all. To Thee offer myself in
sacrifice. Receive me as a victim for
Thy name" The night of Afra's mar
tyrdom, three of her servants, like
herself penitents, and her mother were
burnt alive for giving Christian burial
to the relics of the Saint. Their feast
is kept with hers.
Before her martyrdom, ST. Afra had
given away her wealth in aims, and
this with such humility that she
scarcely dared to offer help to poor
Christians. 81 begged and entreated
them," she said, ito condescend so
far as to accept an aims at my hands
and to pray God for my sins Nor
did she ever cease to bewail her Of
fences. And yet after all, this fervent
penitent could not bring herself to
think that she had satisfied the JUS
tice of God till He permitted her, in
His mercy, to die for Him. How do
you know" the Judge asked, that
Christ has received you into. His So
ciety?" IN this she answered, Il
know that God hath not cast me from
His face. because He allows me to
make glorious confession of His holy
name, and so to obtain, as believe,
forgiveness of my SINS

THE CHURCH.

We may define the Catholic Church
as perfect, visible and indefectible
society or congregation, founded by
Jesus Christ, for the salvation of man.
kind, says the Brooklyn tablet" A
society is a body of human beings,
united for the attainment of common
end, and consciously cooperating,
adopting and issuing the means neces-
sary for the realization of the end de.
sired. Every true and perfect society
must possess three essential character
istics. 1t must be composed of num-
Der of persons; it must have defined
purpose in view, which is common to
all who belong to it; it must have in
itself bond of union by which its
adherents are joined together, and
directed in their use of the means
necessary for the attainment of the
end for which the society was insti-
tuted and for which it exists. This
bond of union is nothing more than
the authority which makes the society
a corporate whole.
We say that the Church is society
inasmuch as it fills these three req
uisites of a real society. 1t is made
up of number of individuals who are
united for the attainment of common
end: i, e., their salvation; who are
cooperating for the realization of that
end; and who are joined together in
one community by the bond of author
ity which is nowhere found so fully
and completely as it is in the Catholic
Church.
We call the Church a perfect
society. because of itself it is COM
petent to fulfill the purpose of its
institution and existence. 1t can
supply all the necessary means for
the sanctifcation and salvation of it's
members. 1t needs no help or assist

BRONCHIAL COUGHS

When the bronchial tubes are af-
fected with that weakening, tickling
cough, they need immediate and SEN
sible treatment. The breath seems
shorter because of mucous obstruc-
tons; usually fever is present and
your head jars with every cough.
Your chest aches and the infamma-
ton often spreads to the lungs.
The food-tonic that has proven its
worth for forty years-is SCOTS Emul-
sion. 1t drives out the cold, which
IS the root of the trouble, and checks
the cough by aiding the healing
process of the enfeebled membranes.
If you are troubled with bronchitis
or know an afflicted friend, always re-
member that Scott's Emulsion builds
strength while relieving the trouble.

BOWMAN SEES DEATH
FOR STATE HOSPITAL
Anti-Tuberculosis Forces Ex-

County Plan.

Progress Of a bill in the legislature
for the erection Of large state tuber-
culosis hospital is being watched with
interest by county officials. committee
members and members of the Anti
tuberculosis society.
There is a prevailing belief that the
bill will be killed. Auditor Bowman,
q member of the committee appointed
by the county commissioners to inves-
tigate Wayne county's need for tu-
berculossis hospital, said influential
people in Indianapolis are against the
bill and for the county hospitals.
When this bill is killed, as the COM
mittee expects to renew activity to-
ward the erection of q hospital cen
trally located to take care Of county
patients.
The physicians Of the state have a
lobby which is working on bills medi-
cal men are interested in.
The Wayne County Medical society
belongs to the state association which
is retaining the lobby.
