declared, cannot be filled in few
months, or even III few years But
his death has served to defect the in

Great changes have taken place in

THE CHRISTMAS BELLS.
3(Florencese .Borners.)

s5&s ~. 5 4, 9lfloEence &bOfHef.) SEsIsg@Es-81NN
7 heard the bells on Christmas morn,
Proclaim once more, The Lord is born"
And as they rang there came to me
A scene Of the nativity; H<.
I saw the Son the Father gave,
Within a lowly manger laid,
While angel choir struck golden Tyres
And grandest, sweetest music made. ~
I saw the Virgin, meek and mild,
Embrace and kiss the lovely child,
Then gently lay him on the hay,
Placed there for cattle yesterday;
saw the humble shepherds look,
AS each. held tightly fast his crook,
TO see king where ne'er a king
Had lain in legend, tale or book.
l saw the Wise Men of the East
Bow down and worship at the feet
Of Mary mild, who pressed her child
The closer to her as she smiled
And as I gazed thot: All me,
That worshipper might be;
But doubt within, and pride without,
Descend and shut the picture out.
How far from heaven mankind has strayed,
Since first those bells their music played.
The Bethl'hem Star still shines afar,
But pride and greed our prospects mar.
We grope along thru depths of night,
And take the wrong path for the right;
We live and think in earthly terms,
While Life's faint flame more dimly burns.
All, happy bells, could you but bring
To us those things for which you ring;
A3nobler creed, wiser plan,
And love for every fel)owman;
Then over all the sea and earth,
Would ring such happiness and mirth,
That all would shout in one accord:

Bridal wells for fall and winter
show longer lengths than heretofore,
and they are more simple. While the
correct lengths of the veil worn by
the June bride was on the average 2x
2 IL yards, new numbers are coming
out 2 yards wide by 3 yards long and
the length may even be increased lat.
ed in the new styles is that the tri-
angle is approved as the correct mode
In the trail instead of the square or
rounded end which formerly prevail
ed.
Another. change is to be noted in
the position of the design. During the
past season the designs on wells have
been on the two sides, but the latest
models have the pattern only at the
end of the veil. The wells are simpler
because Of this and in one of the
stylish new modes shown at a tnous'
seau display held recently at the Bush
Sales building in New York this model
pictured was seen. The pattern in
French floral silk stitch at the end OF
the train. the cdging in silk embroid'
cry around the hem and the orange
blossoms are the only bits of Orna-
mentation.
One of the novel features of the
new season is a boxed set of bridal
veil and wreath all ready for year
This veil shown here is from such
a set. 1t is made of a fine silk net
known as bridal illusion, and with
it in d box appropriately decorated
come orange blossoms, orange buds
and leaves set upon a ruffled banc
of the bridal illusion. This, ,banC
unites in the back in a lovely bou'
,quet, also made Of orange blossoms
For those brides who cannot ,boas

boxed wells will be most convenient.
