Fashions and the Household
THIS IS A SILK SEASON.
Sevsral Reasons Why This Lovely
Fabric 10 Popular.

hca>She why INNS Lovely
Fabric 10 Popular.
The immense vogue of silk this sea-
son Is said to be due to the fact that
wal has closed the wooden mills OF
northern France, while the more south
erly silk factories are still turning out
materials, and the production of the
italian mills is uninterrupted.
Whatever the reason, the fact is I'M
disputed and indisputable-silk is tri-
umphant. Though for a time it seem
ed as If the French supply were threat
ened, the makers have rallied their
forces, and huge shipments are being
exported to the American markets. Do
nestle silks are so much improved Of
late years that our choice is a wide
one.
To start, In pedagogic fashion. from
the general and proceed to the partic-
ular, 1t may be said that the crisper
silken fabrics are In the lead and that
the patterned is trying hard to super
sede the plain. All the designs and col
orings are discreet. The Poiret colors
and Martini patterns are now only
found In the occasional lining Of a neu-
trail colored topcoat. Black and white
combinations are simply legion. and
stripes have imposed themselves upon
everything. In these two particulars,
indeed, 1t behooves the who
likes to be a bit exclusive In her dress
to be rather careful.

The Cotton Flies.

An amusing outdoor game is the cot
ton flies. One Of the players takes a
fake of cotton or bit OF down, which
she casts into the air In the midst Of
a circle formed by the guests. She at
once pufrs with her breath to keep 1t
floating In the air, and the n toward
whom the flake takes its course must
pun In the same way to keep it from
falling. This fake can be kept up a
long time If the players are quick.

Religious Work


Graded lessons for the Sunday school
have come to stay. II no other proof
were needed 1t would be demonstrated
by the action Of the boards of various
denominations In d~iscarding the old
time style of lessons and lesson helps"
and turning to the practical graded
system as the only way but. So far

we presume, to each church board that
has adopted the plan. But now We
have a new course that Is undenomi-
national In character and that on ex-
animation appears to be possessed Of
two attributes that are necessary to
the end in view-comprehensiveness
and conciseness. "a Guide to Bible
Study" by DR.. II. e. Richards 1.-THE In
dex Publishing company, Bloomfield.
N. j., has as its aim the pure study Of
the Bible. BY sending the student d.
rectly to the Bible it gives him . real
stimulus for study, a feeling that he Is
actually getting somewherc and &C.
complishing something by exercising
his own brains-making his own dis
~coveries, not reading Of another's. 1t
does not distract by an embarrassment
Of outside material. for there Il none.
1t is all careful, thoughtful, definite
Bible study, a real students book.
The lessons are graded and cover
years Of work, three for the
junior course and four for the inter-
mediate or advanced course. Pupils
and teachers use the same book. In
this course the Bible is twice covered
by the student, once In the junior
years and again in the advanced.
The Junior course takes the pupil
through the Bible In three years. two
years being given to the stories Of the
Old Testament and n year to those
of the New Testament. Those stories
have been selected which appeal to
children Of the junior ages, and the
illustrative Scripture has been chosen
and questions and summaries framed
to meet the mental capacity and spirit
ual need Of those years. The stories
follow one another consecutively that
the child may learn the Bible story Of
Gods dealings with his people.
In the advanced course the pupil
goes through the Bible again, but this
time he follows the unfolding Of Gods
plan for mankind, seeing how in order
to keep alive the knowledge Of him.

Methodists Plan Big Awakening.
Methodists Of the north and those Of
the south, who were separated by the
civil war, are on the point Of coming
together, and Lutherans, Of whom
there are many kinds, are showing
more tolerance one for another than
aver before.
Methodist leaders say that Billy Sun
day succeeds not alone on his merits,
but because there Is q wave Of religion
sweeping over the country. The taber-
nacle movement Is here, they say, and
it is a challenge to militant Methodism.
Figures indicate that the membership
Of northern Methodism this year will
exceed 100000 In net growth. Last
year, at $1,000, Methodism beat all
other denominations. For the coming
year Methodists propose an evangelis-
tic campaign that will make the net
membership growth in the twelve
months a quarter of a million.
Part of the Methodist program is to
enroll 100000 men and women to de-
vote at least two hours a fortnight to
helping on the awakening. Another
part is to get 1000 young men to go
into the Methodist ministry either for
service at home or In mission fields,
which will exceed the number In any
previous year.
Lutherans are getting ready to cele-
brate the four hundredth anniversary
of the reformation. The plan Is to hold
in New York, October, 1917, meetings
Of all the Lutheran general bodies.
They may meet separately, but some
measure of unity will be secured II all
are here at the same time. The re-
ligious observance will take place on
the Sunday nearest to Oct. 81.
Another celebration also to be held
here will commemorate the civic, edu-
cational and moral results Of the ref
ormation. The plan is to have a great
street parade. to be the greatest event
of its kind New York has eve seen.
There are efforts to have part of the
celebration In Washington. and there is
some talk among Lutherans Of asking
congress to designate a site for an arch
to be erected in the national capital.
Committees have been named to go
before Methodist. Baptist, Presbyter-
ian and other Protestant churches In
America and invite them to take part
In the reformation anniversary.
