There is actually no part Of the ap-
parel of women, from head to feet. in
which ribbons are not playing q promi-
nent role this season. The patron
saint of weaving. or the goddess Of the
looms. appears to have turned espe-
cial attention to- the fostering Of this
particular article of adornment. The
result is that tho. beauty of ribbons
has compelled attention and inspired
their universal use. They crown the
head and clothe the feet and touch up
all the belongings Of womankind.
Just a few Of the pretty things that
have kept the ribbon business brisk
are shown in the picture given above.
These include pair of boudoir slip
pers with heels. and pair without
them. pair Of CATERS with small
pendant sachet bag, and ribbon bag.
The last is suited to many purposes.
but is found chiefly useful for carry
ing the necessary accessories to eve
ping parties. There is an immense
variety in ribbon bags. including those
made for shopping and those for hold
ing gloves, handkerchiefs. slippers.
toilet articles. etc Besides these
there are workbags with fittings 70
uuired for mending or sewing. But
they are frivolous looking affairs. %

Laws Against klssinp.

On July rs, 1893. an act was passed
sorbidding kissing owing to the pes.
thence raging over England and
France. That is the only enactment
passed againt kissing In England; but
In several countries there are strin-
gent regulations against kissing in
public. The Bavarian state railways
forbid kissing on their railway system,
and the New York Central Railway
company now build in connection with
every new station . kissing gallery"
or elevated platform, where passen-
gers are requested to take leave OF
their friends, and kiss to the limit Of
their emotion. One Of the French
railway companies some years ago
promulgated bylaw by which kiss
ing was added to the list of things
banned. but the physicians Of MIL
waukee about the same time went q
step farther and prepared a bill for
the absolute suppression Of kissing on
the ground Of the practice being .
menace to health.

Two much-bedecked porters were

pigeonholes. and that the distributing
clerk usually dropped the larger en-
velopes onto the mailing table. because
they did not fit into the pigeonholes
and because 1t was difficult to tie them
up with the ordinary envelopes.
John made inquiries. and found that
moi infrequently the large envelopes
missed the earlier mail. and. therefore,
were not delivered as promptly as
were letters enclosed in envelopes Of
ordinary size. He reported this to his
employer.
The incident, Insignificant though It

Dear reader. are you in line? If
you are, wake up and take warning
while you are on mercies side of
eternity. Hear the solemn state
ments of Gods word. "The soul
that sinneth shall die" "The
wicked shall be turned into hell"
"He that believeth not shall be
damned"
How often have you heard the
Spirits call, knocking at the door
of your heart, warning you that
you needed salvation? How have
you treated these loving calls?
"Be not deceived, God is not

take warning in this life and it
will do you no good to take warn
ing in eternity.
