New York City.?Fancy waists maile iwitfc a suspeEder suggestion are among the novelties of the season and are singularly attractive in the soft FANCY WAIST. tnd pliable materials of fashion. This one includes also a waistcoat effect and 6leeves of the latest style. As illustrated the material is champagne colored chiffon veiling combined with .chiffon velvet and ecru lace, but there are many others that can be substitute _ ed. The little frill that falls below the suspenders is peculiarly graceful and is made of lace of a finer, softer Hort than is used for the chemisette and waistcoat. ? ?-.5? x a/ +VI*\ 7 "n - XXK?

A Clack lace gown recently seen had' a skirt veiled with deep flounces and a belted coat of the lace, which was cut out at the front so as to show an nnlined square in the centre at the top; the sides were turned back in revers,. and at the top of each rover-, on a line ruuning a little below the top of the shoulders, was a section of black satin having a large red rose in it; these were appliqued on. At the bottom where the revers turned back, also, and well to the sides, each corner ' showed a rose of the same hue, but larger than those at the top. There was a narrow girdle of black velvet ribbon with a cut steel buckle at tbe t?ck, belting the coat in.

This one is especially attractive, and is adapted to dancing school or party wear, but can be rendered simple enough for every day occasions by chosing plainer material.

The idea that moss grows thickest on the north or east side of trees seems to have been disproved. A French botanist, Leon Bedel, now concludes that mosses prefer the parts of the tree that retain most moisture, being thus more abundant on rough or cracked parts, on the upper part of a branch or inclined trunk, on knot6 or hosses. at the folk of branches and at tbe base of tbe trunk. Radiant, tbe invention of two English engineers, is claimed to increase the efficiency of gas tires as remarkably as the incandescent mantle adds to tbe light. It is a product of tbe waste of chemical works, replaces asbestos or tire clay balls and causes the gas to burn brightly and completely, trebling the heat. The material can be had in any quantity at no greater cost than tire clay. . ? The action of water as an anaesthetic is illustrated in some recent cases brought to notice by Joseph Clements. In one case Ave hemorrhoids were injected with distilled water when they were removed in fifteen minutes without pain, and the patient at once returned home. In another case two fistules were opened and scraped, one lafter the injection of water and tbe 'other without it. The last operation was exceedingly painful. The action of the water is declared to be the-same as that of solutions of cocaine or other drug?a filling of the interspaces of the tissues, thus temporarily suspending intercellular respiration and paralyzing the local nerve centres. OVERPRODUCTION OF FOODS. Canned and Dried Preserved Fruits and Vegetables in Abandance. There has been an extensive overproduction in some lines of food, notably in certain sorts of preserved fruits and vegetables, both canned and dried. *- or* nvocxCCl'vo L/U51 yem lUCie ?? ao au ?vvs?.<v r of certain vegetables, and again tliis year, so that prices for some staple articles have been forced below the cost of production. The preserving industry has spread into nearly every State in the Union, and so extensive has become the demand for preserved foods prepared in the factory that there is good ground to fear the supremacy of the home kitchen. It never will be entirely removed, but its work has been greatly diminished and is destined to be still further lessened by the factory, where the highest skill, scientific methods, the prevention of waste, greater command of raw materials enable it :o supplant the work of the home kitchen generally in charge of incompetent cooks in great cities or inexperienced housekeepers in otner places. / The iine of prepared foods is wonderfully complete. It is in evidence in the partially cooked cereals tised at breakfast, in package tea and coffee, in the vsauces, condiments, pickles, jams, jellies, mince meat, plum pudding, soups, preserved poultry, game, meats. fish and other-articles, even to corned beef hash "such as mother used to make." sliced smoked beef and prepared codfish, the use of the latter saving the trouble of cooking salt cod, filling the house witfi rn unsavory odor, the bother of shredding and enabling the housekeeper to prepare oainty fishballs in a very short time. Prepared soups .have resulted in their almost onivcrsal use. the consumption having increased enormously. One firm turns out 10,000,000 to l?,00j,000 tins every j year. Some idea of the irr.g^i:ud6 of the production of preserved foods may be obtained from a few facts which show *that this year there were nearly 13,?, '000,000 cases of twenty-four tins each of sweet corn put up in different States; over 0,000,000 cases in three States. Illinois, Iowa and Maryland, canning com being a comparatively new induetry in two of them. The production ol lomatoes is l'ully as large as of corn, averaging 9,800,000 cases of two dozen tins each annually. Of peas, over 72.000.000 tins are preserved. Of salmon there is an average annua) output of 4,300,00 cases, or tins, and besides that king of the tish family we liave mackerel, trout, oys ters, clams, and many other sorts, nol to mention clam chowder. HN Awful Threat.

Subject: The Etst Prese.it God?The Got Toward "Which the Transition of Theology Should I.ead Ua ?Inward Aspiration! and Longings the Voice of God Brooklyn, X. Y.?The Rev. Dr. Lyman [Abbott occupied the pulpit in the Church of the Pilgrims Sunday morning in the absence of the pastor, the Rev. Dr. H. P.' Dewey. Dr. Lyman Abbott's subject was, "The Ever Present God," and he took for his text, Romans, x:6-7-8: "'But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise: say not in thy heart who shall ascend into heaven (that is, to bring Christ down from above) or, who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead), but what saith it? The word is nigh thee, it is in thy rtiouth and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith which we preach." He said: The "word" in the New Testament means, God speaking. A friend sits by your side in absent-minded meditation, and his speech reveals the soul of man. j So the word of God reveals the unknown God to us. We have not to go to the depths to find the manifestation of God is all about us and within us. We are all familiar with the statement that we are Sassing through a transition in theology, f it were only a transition in theology it would .not disturb us mivh. We could leave thytheologians to study the theolosry of the mure for themselves. But it is also a transition in religious experience. I am sure that the older members of this congregation can trace^in their lives, more or Jess, a change, not simply in their intellect- : ual opinions of* religion, hut in their really vital' religious experience. We used to ihink, in our boyhood, of God as King sitting on the Great White Throne, with the angels gathered about Him and singing to Him. He was far away{ We sent our prayers up to Him by a kind of spiritual wireless telegraphy, asking for things, and sometimes He would give us those things and sometimes He would Act. But this was our experience of prayer, and that was our notion of the answer to prayer: and this faraway God, sitting on the Great White Throne, had revealed Himself to men through the Bible and through the Christ. It was a great historic revelation, and we went back, more or less conscious 1 of that revelation of the faraway God in j the faraway historic time, and we went to that Bible to find out what it told us re- ! epecting God's law, o? what was required of us, and the things with respect to God's grace, what He would do for us, and with many of ut. that experience has not changed. The picture of ihe great King has grown dim and indistinct, or disappeared altogether, and remains, if it remains at all, as a recognized -picture and not a reality. And that Christ, who eeemB to us a mediator between God and man, a revelation of the faraway God, has also grown faraway. That is, we have come to recognize that He is a great historic figure, and we are, more or less, perplexed as to what His revelation is of the faraway God, and what His relation to us is, and our prayers have changed and our conception of the Bible has changed, and we can no longer take a text out of the Biblfc and rest upon it as a final and absolute authority. If we try, perhaps some succeed and some fall. What I do want this morning is to point out. not what has taken place, but to indicate the goal toward which this transition should lead us; what is the Promised Lapd toward which we should look; what is the religious experience we may hope for in the future to take the pl.ace of this religious experience of the oast, that has grown dim and indistinct and which is only half believed. In the first place> I am sure that, while we have been undergoing this change, forces without the church have been bringing to us a larger, if a vaguer, conception of God. God does not workonly through the church; He" does not speak only through the preacher. Religion is not a spiritual conduit through which thie water of life is brought down to man. The grace of God,does Hot come in particular channels of grace alone. ^The Bible eavs it falls like a gentle rain. It is universal. and we may look outside the church and among the forces that we have considered forces for skepticism, for the forces which are giving us a more indefinite idea of religion and, I think, a nearer view of God. 1 am not going to try to state the reason, I am only stating the fact.- Herbert Spencer has summed up in a single sentence what he thinks is the result of scientific investigation and experience. "Amid all the mysteries by which we are surrounded nothing is more certain than that we are ever in the presence of Eternal Energy, from which all these things t>roceed." What science has taught is this: You are not to go back to creative days to find God, though in some period God launched the world and put His children here and intervening now and then in special necessity; you are not to think of God *1"'^ *??? iwn 4a r\f Clf\A ae + ViO Ifiiaif WQJ , JU U aic bUlUA VA VIVU ua VMV eternal energy here. Yes, as ever in the presence of the eternal energy ? always creating, always controlling?in the growth of every flower and in the perfume; in the flight of every bird Science sa>s that God is not remote. He is here, and you can go out'into the Prospect Park this afternoon and find Him in the brown trees, beneath the ground, and in the hidden life that next spring is to burst fortn; for God is life, and there is no explanation for arfy of the phenomena of life except in the indwelling of the Eternal. If we turn from science to literature we find a much closer and more sacred and truer and diviner interpretation of the change that is coming over the thoughts of men. The poets are all prophets. They tell ns beforehand what is the fate that by and by we shall come to. Let me read one such interpretation. It is from Tennyson: "The sun, the moon, the stars, the sea, the hills and the flowers, are not these, O, eoul. the vision of Him who reigns? "Dark is the world to thee; thyself art the reason why. For is He not all but that ivmill uao uvnci vsj * am x . 'Glory about thee, within thee, and thou fulfillest thy doom. "'Making Him broken fleams, and'a etifled splendor and gloom.: "Speak to Him, thou, for He hears, and spirit with spirit can meet. Closer is He tnan breathing, and nearer than hands and feet." The universal presence, universal communion, in the hearts of men, as it was in the heart of Moses; in the hearts of wearied 60uls, hs in the heart of David when he wrote the Twenty-third Psalm; in the hearty of disconsolate souls, as in the heart of Isaiah; in the hearts of men now, as in the hearts of men then?a living presence. We are not to ascend into the heavens to bring Him down from a great white throne, but to look within. In thine heart thou shalt find Him. "This is the gospel of faith," ^ays St. Paul, "that we preach unto you." And so with prayer. It comes in our evnpripnnp?inch rhic- Snirit with snirit meeting, spirit with spirit talking. Not the going after something, though it may be that, but the receiving something, preeminent communion, fellowship,, companionship. It is this conception", into which some of us have come unwillingly: into which some of us have drifted, we do not know how; into which some have grown gradually and some with a wrench from which we have not recovered?this conception of the universal presence which might perhaps have tie effect of a denial of the personality of God were it not for the message of Christianity, and that message we undertake to couch in accurate theological phraseology. Because we do need a personification cf the Eternal, because we must have some image that we can see, some conception that we tnn grasp, some humanized thought, that we make Him of stone, we make Him up in our imagination. And after all, whether that image hangs on the wall, or is pictured in stone, or is simply engra\-ed on our brain, it is still an idol, a something that stands for reality. God savs, "1 am too great, too infinite, eternal for you t,o define or grasp. The agnostic is ngbt in saying, 'You do not know Himr' but in order that you may know Him I will come and dwell among men and fill one hutnan life full of Myself, and through that life you shall interpret ]\fe. You may thus obtain your desire for one you can take by the band, into whose eves you can look snd whn?r. vfin ran rnmnrphpn<i " J ' " 9 * We are to see not only -what God hag done in the past, but what He is always doing. Always God was in Bis work and ne Tie always is in it, forgiving, pitying, helpinc. veedine. comforting, strengthening. We do not know it. but He is always here, in the hearts and lives of men. doinz what ?rj He did in the past, still saying to Nicode- ^ mus. "You need to be born again*;" to the Pharisee, "Woe unto you that devour 101 widows' houses:"' to the weeoinR sisters, "Thy brother is rot dead. There is no >o dying;" to the penitent sinner, crushed by the memory of a wasted life. "Go in peace, thy sins are forgiven thee." The )>fe of Christ did not ston at the cross. I will In not say that we look at the cross too much, ?e j but I will say that we have looked at the |v | resurrection too little. Christ's is a con- 11 tinuous life. That is what He means when . ne says, "I am with you always." We must realize that H> is here and now in the lives of men. My conception of the Bible has undergone a creat el. ante and I cannot any longer go to a text and scy, "That settles it." Shall I then shut the Bible un and sav it is but a recerd of past life? No, it is the revelation of the eternal life, the interpretation of God in human | experience, net only in the devout but also j in the undevout; not only in the believing, but in the skeptical. The Bible seems to | me like a <nvat orchestra of lOfl mfn all j nlaying to express the musical lite that is I jn tne conductor, js i* uuu ^cun.ur, , throueh the experiences of men. I believe that God is carrying us-throueh a transition time (all times are transition times), and taking away the idols upon which we rested, and which we have counted faired, in order that He may carrv us back to Himself; and that, if we take the experience of the past twentv centuries and understand the message it sends, its literature. history and religious life arioht. we shall find it all exnlains tb?se words of St. Paul:, we are not to ascend into heaven to bring God out of the past, nor look to the future, but we are to look abou?. us and understand that He is still directing the destinv of nations and ourselves. We are to look within us and know that the aspirations. the desires, the dissatisfaction in ourselves, the Icii^iug for something hiarher and better?these are the joices of God. He was alvjays and always will be in His world: and through the church and 'he Bible and by the revelation of Himself in the Christ. God manifest in the flesh. He is brineing us. not jtn the church, not to the Bible, not to jjthe' mediator, but to Himself. He ever lives. He ever indwells "closer than breathing, nearer than hands or fetf| ' Perfect and Not Perfect. A little calm reflection and careful study 1 of the Bible would relieve many persons of needless perplexity in regard to the use of the term perfection as applie* to the Christian. . Every true Christian is perfect in the , sense _of being a teal Christian, and of having 2,'ii those things which are essential to -constitute him a Christian. If any pari; is , lacking he is not a whole?a perfectChristian. What these parte are wh;ch , are necessary to constitute one a perfect Christian it is not now my purpose to con* sider. It is to the necessity of all porta being present in order to the being of the real Christian that I#call your attention. 1 Take a yoUng horae for an illustration. If there is a foot missing, an eye injured 01 ' any other cart damaged or lacking, we J cannot say it is a perfect horse. But if all the necessary parts are there, although the animal may be young and untrained, we ' say it is perfect. But there is a perfection 1 it has not reached. It is to grow, to learn, j to develop and so go on unto perfection. It may live to reach a noint beyond which ( it canixjt srrow or develop. It has reached its perfection. It was a nerfect horse when . it was young and small. It is a perfect horse, now ip has reached its maturity 01 1 perfection. . The case is somewhat similar with the j Christian. When the sinner believed with ! , his heart and received_the Holv Ghost he j , I became a*Christian. He had all tne part* necessary and in this sense was complete or perfect. But lie jVyoung, weak, immature and needs.to go on unto perfection, This perfection is before him in the person of the man Christ Jesus, and he at once commences to seek to be Kke Christ. All his life long he may be developing and going on unto this perfection. Indeed, nc , one will reach a time or a place where he can say "I am so much like the Lord .Tesug that there is no further room for me to advance. I have reached perfection." In order to see this matter more plainly it is necessary to remember I am not referring to the holiness of the Christian Whether he has' just begun to be a Chris tian, oi has been serving the Lord faith fully for many years and has itaade much progress toward perfection, the true Christian is "cleansed from all sin," antfrhaving the Spirit of.Christ. is holy in his charactet as God is holy. Holiness?real personal holiness is an essential attribute of the Christian. Growing out of the above is also anotliei fact which must be borne in mind, and that is, the true Christian is ready to die at any time, and is just* as much entitled to a home among the redeemed in heaven if he die when just converted as when he woru His title and Ilia^ uctumt fitness rest in the fact of his relation tc the atonement.

Why should we be harder on our friends than the law is on a suspected prisoner? \ Are not most of us quick to count a friend ^ guilty until he is proved innocent? It mat- . ters not that our lifetime knowledge hae proved one's dependableness, and love, g and good judgment; if something happens g that we do not entirely understand, our silent or outspoken condemnation is likely g to be instant, instead of withholding judgment until all the evidence is in. It is humiliating, a few hours or a few days later, to learn that, after all, the friend was in- *! nocent of the seeming carelessness, or un- -1 kindness, or wrong; but this does not prevent the same Quick condemnation fhe e next time.
