One of the loveliest dresses is of fcatiny Liberty silk in delicate pink. And it might well serve as a costume for a bal masque if the fair wearer Lad a floral headdress, though it is not tt all loud and none too showy for any evening wear. This dress is a flounced affair, the skirt being in triple flounce effect. Each flounce is cut out in petal shape around the edge, and between I these petals another petal of palest pink chiffon is introduced. The petals are edged with tiny pink sequins and the veinings are done in glistening Bilks. Three shaped flounces form the elbow sleeves, and the pretty blouse bodice is likewise formed of three overlapping sections, these like the skirt flounces being edged in this petal effect. | Beits and Bodice*. Belts and bodices of all sorts and descriptions are worn with waists ot dinner and ball gowns.

'FREEDOM IN CHRIST." , ? ' I 11 D "lie Key. Edward Hnnttinc Kndd Sh '8 How Faith Unfoldg (Itself in M y <? Forms of Christian Experience? - 1 pentancc, Growth and Service. jj Brooklyn, N. Y.?The Rev. Edwct n Eluntting Rudd, pastor of the First Cd c< tregational Church, Dedham, Masl w >reached Sunday morning in the Toml t< ring Avenue Congregational Church to I tl arge audicnce. His subject was "Frejj ? lora in Christ," and the test was fron tl Jojbn ii.: 13 and 14: "But as many altl eceived Him to them gave He the righlgj o become children of God, even to tbemoi ;hat believe on His name, who were borriti lot of blood nor of the will of the fleshVn lor of the will of man, but of God." Mr-C Rudd said: u Can I do as I please ? Or must I will to (] lo as another pleases? Am I a free agent >r are limitations placed upon me? Is liberty unrestrained freedom, or am I the nore truly free when my actions and vords are controlled by divine laws, imposed willingly upon man by his own enightened self? To answer these questions intelligently, learly and helpfully takes us at once into hat held of Christian sociology and of the nterrelation of man with man and of man vitb his God which so engages the atten ion of men everywhere to-day. xne piace ind duty of the church is very clear. It s to show men in the spirit of candor, of :ympathy, of open mindedness, of tolertnce, that the word of God gives lis great flemental teachings by a master thinker ind reasoner, who was divine and who .laims the right to influence men. The so alled great problems of iubor and capital vill find a permanent solution only by he arbitrament of the Man of Galilee. But it is your duty and mine to remind rarselves and others that according as we iquare ourselves with the requirements of jod in Christ shall the problems of life ?e mot and be grappled and worth while esuits be achieved. We are here to-day to ask entrance into ,he light. We are here to know more ruth, so that truth may make us free. IVe long to know how to be happily and contentedly free. To have our freedom io used that everywhere men shall xecoglize it as the article they wish, and, possessing it with us, we shall together make nen strong. Bearing one another's burlens we shall surely fulfill in part the law ;f Christ. The'gospel of St. John, simile yet profound, shows us how to gain reedom in Christ. It reminds us what is o necessary to recall in this easy going, ion-thinking age, viz.. that in no real and 1 **!"* mow r>V?\1 Pron nf fln/1 JCI IliailCllO &CIJOC (UV ilitil vuuuiwu VJ. V.V.V* jntil Christ has made them such by vital mion with Him. That we have 110 right o call ourselves children until God Himself transfers that right to us by an act of vill and obedience on our part, so recoglized by Christ., who has in the very proess of our obedience done His part. To laim the friendship of another is not to jossess it. To say of Christ and our rela,ions to Him. as we say of some well:nown people, "Oh, ye?. I know Him well; tie is a warm personal friend," when in eality little more than a formal introduction has been given, is in essence to know >nly about Him, and that in a formal ;ense. instead of being divinely coramieiioned by the living holy spirit of God o be a child of God" and an heir with Jhrist to eternal life. Manifestly, then, his is an important matter to us allien to the careless, thoughtless ones who nake up a part of every audience. Have ve any right to call ourselves "children )f God?" And if we have, what has God, jy His regenerating spirit, done in us? It was our New England poet, Lowell. \ho said: The thing we long for?fhr.t we are For one transcendent moment. But even the poet fails to be true to act unless we have such a definite, genune faith in God's power and willingness :o give us Himself and to make us sons md daughters of the living God, that we eceive Him and by that act avail of Him is our Saviour not only for one transcend>nt moment, but for all the moments for he rest of time, and in that act we are )orn of God, and by that act we are jiven the right to become?aye, to be begotten as children of God. Almost immediately in this sublime, scholarly. and heart searching gospel of fohn, that great disciple, speaking the vords df Christ Himself, begins by dividng mankind into the same two divisions vhich are represented in this audience, md in every audience, viz., those who lave received Him and those who, though ,hey were His own by creation, received iim not, by a regenerating faith. And I vant just now, if possible, to avoid ab;truse, moss covered theological terms and jhraseology, and to clothe these burning ssues in simple, clear Bible language, but tr? remind nnrsplvpa thnt nany of us arc longing to get out into the >pen sky, in some oi the old fashioned, lecessary doctrines of the word of God. iVe have gotten some of the choicest and nost essential statements of divine truth leclouded, and we are not quite sure vhere we are. May God's spirit enlight'n and allay doubt and uncertainty on ,hese truths this day, i -d allign us all n the comforting strength of His own ;onship. And I frankly believe, my broth:r man, we cannot be satisfied in this subime hour by turning to the poets, much as hey will uplift and rest us. Even tuougn rou turn to Emerson, who has been so exilted and almost deified by some in New England Unitarianism and ask him about nan, and in one place he will tell you: 'A man is the whole encyclopedia of facts, ['he creation of a thousand forests is in me acorn, and Egypt. Greece, Rome, Saul, Britain, America, lie folded already n the first man." \es, potentiality lies ?nfolded, but naught else can bring it to surface and to living power save the touch >f Christ the Redeemer of Manhood. Nor loes the statement of Carlyle satisfy me, or you recall in hie essay on "characterStics," he says: "Man stands in the cenre of nature; his fraction of time encir:led by eternity, his handbreadth of space irm'rnl/i/1 V*ir T env tliia / rn ,UV.UV.I^U *JJ iilllltltuuv. M CUJ Wli.J VWi? . lot satisfy you. for you long to know how, rou can best live and expand, while you ire in this "centre of nature,'' and where md how you are to spend eternity. And ou turn to that beautifully human and eal poet, Robert Burns, and remember vith him "'That man's a man for a' that," md here you feel'that you may be argung in a circle, and if Burns had only ;nown more of the Man of Calvary, he vould have been saved many of the sins vhich blighted his whole life. Or you nay stand with that dear English poet, Jray, as from afar he beholds Eton Colege and exclaims, "Ah. tell them they are nen," and those words and this poet's onging, more nearly voice your own soul's vish, and you add, "Ah, tell them of the Jan. who became flesh and dwelt among is, that He might redeem men for Himlelf." It is to this Incarnate word that ve must turn if we are to be enlightened md satisfied. And few passages in God's vord speak, out more hope and immediate Jocoinrr than + tovf " Ac mflnv r?o rp eived Him, to them gave He the right o become children of God." But some one asks, what is the process >y which this is done? And I reply in he continuing words of this same verse: 'Even to them that believe on His name,'' Jut what is it to believe on His name? iVhat is faith? And we reply with Buxon: "'Faith ie the filial, trustful relation, phich the whole man, intellect, heart and pill, sustains toward the Lord .Jesus Christ." Christ 6aid to His disciples, 'Come ye after Me, and I will make you iehers of men." They obeyed. Heart, ntellect and will accepted and believed Christ to have the right and the power o communicate to them "sonship" of iod. Disciples of Him who walked among hem as theif Redeemer. And'when they tad given Hub that' simple confidence and iroved it openly by obeaience to His comaand of public confessipn of His claim, ;lad and-willing to be known-as < His folowers and co-workers, at' that moment yere they given the right to be the chilIren of God. Then were they born not f blood, nor of the will of the fleah, nor f the will of man, but of God. The genlineness of their faith and sonship was tteeted in various ways. To them salvaion in Christ was equipment for service o others. They did not doubt the diine personality of ShriBt. but thev ta 1? r. " . <." .; - - ' >wed Him. Pj&t child ioves and rejoin 1 you when he obeys you. Christ the reat captain of righteousness is asking len to follow Him. "If ye know these hing<?, happy are ye if ye do them." ThiB leans more* than mere intellectual assent o the doctrines and teachings of Christ, or thij may remain only profession and ot pass into feeling and action. You recall the searching words of Christ peaking to the intellectual failures of the ^arisees, in Matthew xv: 8: "This peole honoreth Me with their lips, but their eart is far from Me. But in vain they do worship Me, teaching for doctrine the ammandments of men." And again, rhen He was speaking to this same arieDcracy of the intellect and sticklers for le strict letter of the law, He said: "And hy call ye me Lord! Lord! and do not le things which I say?" Manifestly, len, Christ was eager that men should ive honest, hearty assent to His claims F discipleship. He then promised potenal freedom, personal liberty. But the ere exercise of faith was not enough, hristianity is something larger and finer lan even the genuine exercise of faith t the person and work of Christ. Faith unfolds itself in many forms of hristian experience and activity, all of hich are embraced in "repentance, pwth and service." When St. Paul tote to that little band of men at Ephewho had exercised their faith in the jfeonal Christ, he bade them "grow up lkll things into Him, -who is the head e^i Christ." But lest there may be some amg us this morning who, in thinking j tlvwhole matter ever, do not find it so i dililt to believe this Divine Son of Gdbut who do not quite appreciate the relbn of a man to his 6in, to his failures deliberate acts of wrong and evil, is Necessary to repent? And what is reptence? "Except ye repent," cried j Joh^he Baptist. Manifestly it is neces- : sarytAnd what is it? "It is a deep ! chnniof the entire thinking, feeling and williaman; and involves as its elements enligfament. contrition and confession, prayebr pardon and peace, counting tbe cost A endeavor after new obedience." j Look Uhese for a moment. Enlighten- , ment!iThis is the work of the Holy j Ghost.jt was not until the prodigal son came thimself that he started on that wondrci pathway to lifelong blessing, i Enlight^ent as to his own folly and | bin uuumsciousness uiau <i lumtrr b ju>c ; awaitedfe return. My brother, if some ] things ^uncertain, pray for enlighten- i ment aifflTe who in the same chapter j proclaim! Himself to be the light _ of I men wilkveal the path to contrition and confVpn. "I have sinned against heaven a?n Thy sight" was a .life giving ronfefci and prayer. It showed that faithV the Father's love was sorry and asbanlfor its past ingratitude. In that heartV for pardon was the .soul's receiving Clt, and because He received, he had the lit to be a son of God. Man repented aifeod by His divine act regenerated. I There arefcers here to-day who will admit the til of miich that I say. but in whom anlhout whom there are obstacles whiclftu have not the courage and the detened patience to overcome. Some of thesastacles are the power of sin in the soifcr, like St. Paul of old, you find a laifcat "when you do good evil is present a false pride in one's own personalimand achievement., for there are not ?|v of us, with "I thank Thee that I amot as other men are tendencies; thelironment of worldly interest* and folships, and the insincerity of many i?ssing Christians. Ah. '#ow many of usl?s this latter include? Nevertheless, not few are enabled to rise above these cfccles and become sona of God. I Again I ask ihatial question of this message, can I dell please? Or must I do as another lies? And I believe an honest study ?he New Testament will show us that tfcnlv freedom whrch is comprehensive ist freedom and liberty which God giv<fc our whole nature when we have aec-eH or received His Son Jesus Christ to bur Redeemer and Master. May you tiday. my earnest, seeking friends, fintfce Christ whose sacrificial love, represad in this atoning blood, and receivingjm by faith, be called children of Gcfend if children, then heirs, heirs of <|and joint heirs with Christ, if so be 1 we suffer with Him, that we may bfco glorified together. \ Every Man a Iter.

L. Have Faith In God. I Phillips Brooks declared wftould strive to see the loving hand old in every trial and sorrow. He once efcssed this thought in the following dialog^ "What shall I do with this sonYhnt i God has sent me?" "Take it up afcear it, and get a strength and blessingl of it." "Ah, if I only knew what l*rig i there was in it, if I only saw how atyla help me, then 1 could bear it like a pl\!" "What shall I do with this hard, hlul I duty which Christ has laid right iiy | way?" "Do it, and grow by doing-1' "An, yes; if I could only see that it \? make me grow!" In both these castK ' you not see that what you are beggini i is not more faith, although you thinl is, but sight? You want to see for yd self the blessing in the sorrow, the strenj in the hard and hateful task. Faith s? not, "I see that it is good for me, and! God must have sent it," but "God 8entl( and so it must be good for me." I Had the Missionary Spirit. 1 John K. Mott visited a college in Ceyloi where he found a band of students so pool that sixteen of them occupied one room Near the building was a garden, in wbicl they spent their spare time cultivating^ ba nanas. When -Mr. _\iou mquirea: vv/jai do you do with the. money?" they tool him to the shore and pointed to an island off in the sea. "Two years ago," they said "we sent one of our graduates there. He started a school, and it has developed now into a church. We are going to send him to another island this year."

George Ade, the author of Ave pieces running simultaneously, is the man of the hour in theatrical circles, having eclipsed even Clyde Fitch in the rapidity of his rise as a playwright. Mr. Ade takes his success modestly and disclaims any desire to pose as a dramatist .of serious intent. "If I have any single ambition In reference to the stage," said Mr. Ade, "it is to depict every day American life in such a manner as to amuse the public and not offend good taste. If, incidentally, I can touch upon some of the weaknesses and foibles of the present moment without slandering my own countrymen, or holding our home people up to ridicule, the plays will have a value which never can attach to an entertainment that is merely farcical.
