the years of storm and calm.
She lived always a hospitable,
devoted member of the Metho-
dist church.
On her last bed, surrounded
by her own, and drawn out in
conversation concerning her long
and toilsome life, the evidence
and the emphasis of her heart
and voice were by no means up
on her tolls and cares and suffer-
ing sickness, but on the thought
of the tender devotion of her
family to her, and on the glad
fact that she had committed and
did commit her family, her soul
and her all to the Savior whom
she had trusted all the way.
The peace of the old songs,
the comport of the old promises
and the worship of the old
prayers were hers in the ending
days.
And she who has wrought and
waited with such love and faith
fulness for and with her own
household will not miss the re-
ward and joy of the heavenly
Fathers home.

So quickly did il come and so smart
was the effect, its popularity was in
stantaneous-today in one shop. to-
morrow in another, and by the end Of
a week the whole Avenue wears it..
Nor are these borders confined TO the
tinsel alone. One OF the small speciality
shops shows a serge coat with the Dor
der in white silk braid and the effect
is really fetching. There are other
suits, too, with the borders embroid-
cred with blue silk floss. Indeed, va
riety is endless in these strictly tail
ored suits Their style is even accentu-
ated by contrast with the silk models
cut on semi tailored lines.
Distinctly different in purpose and
appearance, the suits with short Zouave
Jackets in no wise conflict with the
vogue Of the tailored, but are selected
for theaters afternoon and dress wear.
One Of New HOrk's most famous houses
has on display an attractive model in
mouse gray faille silk, the coat short
and boxy and the skirt laid in soft
pleats- Fine silk corded motifs in the
corners OF the jacket and woven but

silk covered buttons placed close to-
gether down the closing and the other
a gray silk with frogs OF silk covered
cord. In some Of the better shops
they are introducing these short coats
in cloth, but taffeta and failIe are used
in the great majority OF the models.

read small painted placards bearing
''Berthas" "Jabots" and "Fichus" and
marvel that such CONNECTIONS of net,
