There are some beauties among the cloth coats intended for more serviceable wear. These are all made of fabrics which have been treated by various rain-resistant processes. Smoothfaced textures are considered the correct thing, and it is noteworthy thai such goods as covert, Venetian cloth., serge and cassimere can be made impervious to water. More than that, the palest shades do not stain from the drops that have fallen on them. Wat Trlmmlnen. Solid wreaths of roses trim many o) the new hats.

THE PULPIT. A SCHOLARLY SUNDAY SERMON BY THE REV. DR. JOHN LOVE, JR. Subject: Tlie Mystic Stone* Asbury Park, N. J.?The Rev. Dr. John Love, Jr., preached on "The Mystic Stone and the Broken Image"' in the First Baptist Church here. He took as his text David ii:34: "A stone cut out without hands which smote the imi age." Dr. Love said: In the poem called "Giles Corey" the great author has said: "Do you believe in dreams? Why, yes and no. When they come true, then I believe in them, when they come false I don't believe in them." This is doubtless a fair expression of our own feelings concerning these mysterious visitors in our unconscious hours. Whatever harmony there may be between them and events which thereafter transpire we can never be sure at the time that they are prophetic. In the Old Testament economy, however, dreams were a recognized method I of divine communication with man; kind. Not only were Abimeloch and Jacob, Josepn and Solomon tnus addressed from heaven, but the prophets received revelations in and through t them, designed for tbe warning, the comfort and the instruction of the race. Few dreams narrated in sacred writ are of such profound interest as the one of which our text makes mention. In the second year of his reign "Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, dreamed dreams wherewith his spirit was troubled and his sleep brake from him." So profound was the impression made upon him, so agitated his mind on awakening, that he commanded the presence of magicians, astrologers and sorcerers, who v.-ei'e supposed to possess the powers of interpretation. The dream of the king had, however, so far gone from him when the wise men entered into his presence that he could give them no hint of its nature. Not even the bare outline remained, only the sense of terror and the fear of impending ill. With the cruelty peculiar to himself he demanded that they should at once reproduce the dream by their mystic arts and give the correct interpretation. Protest was in vain, and in the heat of his passion he voiced the decree of death on all the wise men of the kingdom. Djinipi thf? nrnnhet rantiro nt the time in Babylon, learning of the manifesto of the king, petitioned for an extension of time and promised the sought for interpretation. It was an awful crisis, but from the quartet of Daniel and his three companions went up a cry that reached the very heart of God and won the secret that nullified an infamous decree. Within the appointed time the prophet is ready for the presence chamber of the king. An ambassador from heaven, he brings in clear outline, by his vivid description, the mystical image which had disturbed the slumbers of Nebuchadnezzar, and then interprets its significance as may be traced in the second chapter of the book of Daniel, versfes 31 to 36. By the "head of gold" was represented the kingdom of Babylon, the domain of Nebuchadnezzar for forty-five years. The "breast and arms of silver" signified the kingdom in which the Medes and Persians h^ld sway, and was known as the Meao-Persian reign, inaugurated by Darios, the Mede. and Cyrus, the Persian, b^^reen whom an alliance had been formed The third kingdom represented by ti>e "belly and thighs of brass" was the Grecian, f Aiin rl A/1 Krr A lnwnr*/lAti fVi a + V* J n ivuuucu uj ajcAiiuua iuc vjri cttt vu juud victory over the last of the Persian emperors. The joy of his conquest, however, was mingled with sadness, for, boasting that he had conquered the world, he sat down and wept because 'there was not another world to conquer." The fourth kingdom symbolized, in the image, by "the legs and feet of iron," is commonly believed to be the Roman kingdom. Toward its close it Decame weak and disintegrated, branching out into ten kingdoms, represented by the ten toes of the image. It could hardly be shown by an appeal to history how exactly all the events and the succession of events symbolized in the spectral image came to pass, but wo concentrate our attention on the significance of the "mystic stone," which by some unseen agency and in some unaccountable manner was seen to be detached from the mountain near by and to smite the image upon the feet. hrpnlfinfr intn nipf>oc thA irnn and tho ?' - - ???o ?t"vvvs' " v"' **"** *"v ;lay of wiiicb they were composed. Nor was this all, for the stone which had smitten the image seemed to become a vasf mountain w,hich filled the whole earth. That the reference is to the kingdom of the Messiah and a vivid prophecy of its power and growth there can be no doubt, and yet the vision and its interpretation date back to 006 B. C. There is to be noticed, first, the assurance of the establishment of a divine kingdom in the world. Not only have we the symbolism of the mystic stone, but the definite language of prophecy, for iu his memorable interview with the kiDg, Daniel declared In the days of these kings shall the God of Heaven set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed." Similar and :onfirmative prophecies might easily 3e culled from the sacred record. Many empires in the world have owed their )rigin, or at least their eminence, to successes in war. Britain owes its prestige to Waterloo, Germany to Sedan, the United States to Gettysburg. Japan to Mukden. Power has been purchased at the point of the sword ind sustained often through tyranny and cruelty. The strength of the powers of nations has been guaged by the roster of their armies and navies. Arsenals. fleets and military stores have 3een their pride and boast. Not so with the kingdom whose design, code ind symbols date from all eternity, (t is spiritual and not martial. It hath iveapons before which strongholds crumble, but they are not carnal. It wins triumphs, but on silent, bloodless battle fields. Not in the catalogue of nations does this kingdom claim a place. Alone it stands, without peer or counterpart. It bears the name and >wns the sway of the Omnipotent. It was not to enter into conflict with existing government. It was to be derotional, not political. The cross was lo be its sacred symbol, not a crown. Its laws were to be transcribed not in ponderous statute books, not in legislative enactments, but in that precious book whoso very name even has be come an inspiration and a benediction -the Bible. Throughout the Scriptures .? iui in in leuns unmisiaKaoie me ilvine character of the new kingdoo> and when at length the Messiah had entered upon His holy mission He disjointed tie common expectation in His announcement, "My kingdom is not of this world." Again and again might He have assumed the symbols of oyalty and won an enthusiastic following. indeed. He was compelled to reaist tho nnQsinr.nto nrrlnr nf thn it times, who longed for a crowned head and a deliverer. Persistent was His emphasis upon spiritual truth. He demanded a piety d& interpreted by long prayers and :/Cv,*i, ' . -r Vv'.i-1. %'J!*.*> Ja.''J longer robee, but by surrender and loyalty to God. "No religion but that ol Christ has disclosed the innermost nature of God, none but this has laid bare in its peculiar centre point the moral nature of man." Man fallen and dishonored was driven from "Paradise Lost." The grand design of the Kingdom of Christ is to bring htm into such fellowship with God as that be may be an heir of "Paradise Regained." At Athens were two temples, "ajtemple of Virtue and a temple of Honor." Only through the former could the latter be entered. Only through the invisible Kingdom of God on earth?the "Kingdom of Grace"?can we hope for admission at length into the "Kingdom of the Redeemed"?the "Temple of Glory." The subjects of this empiro must be in harmony with and breathe the spirit of the King. We are reminded secondly of the small beginnings of the Kingdom of the Messiah. The "stone cut out of the mountain without hands" was diminutive at first as compared with its subsequent appearance. This is indeed the law of nature. The trees which fill our forests were once but tender saplings?the men of the next generation are to-day but weakly children. Christianity was indeed complete at the beginning. From its very nature it must have been. An imperfect system would hav? been a witness against itself. In all these nineteen centuries not a single principle or trutn nas oeen aaueu. n was Christ's gift to the world. A mine to be worked?a very boranza. A system to be studied?a very thesaurus of truth. Christ in His doctrine was its teacher. In His matchless character its grand exponent. Each Christian is a matriculate in the preparatory school and when the term time of life shall end will receive a certificate into the University of Heaven. Laws are being constantly changed in order that they may be adapted to the varying conditions of mankind. Amendments to the Constitution have been added one by one. Statutes are subject to frequenf revision. Provisions that have proved injudicious have been struck out. Necessary modifications and additions have often been made. Can anything be added to the system of religion which Jesus introduced into the world? Hae the "Sermon on the Mount" ever been improved? Can it be? As well attempt to add to the radiance of the midday sun or the maiesty of the heav. ing ocean. The necessity of change would imply weakness, crudeness, imperfect knowledge. "I am the Lord, J change not," and Christianity is the creed of Jehovah?the system of Him who said, "I am the truth." Who shall say that ChristiaiJty can ever need modification? To what age of the world-, to what nation, to what government, to what human conditions has it not been adapted? Still, in its beginning, it seemed of small and weak proportions. From a human standpoint, what could appear more uncompromising? II seemed like a Lilliput arraying it!>elf against a host of giants. We are so constituted that we look for causes which shall seem adequate to given effects. Who in the first century could have conceived as ever possible the scenes which in these latter days greet our eyes and the facts which thrust themselves upon our attention? Christ Himself wa9 a poor and obscure Nazarene peasant, without prestige or immediate pedigree of note. His disciiplos were, with few exceptions, lacking in culture and of but limited influence. The new religion had in it nothing to win the opulent or the influential. It ministered not to the caprices of men, but combatted their strongest prejudices. It brought not "peace, but a sword." Judged by ordinary standards, it seemed doomed to failure. We need not turn to the grand treatises of +Vm T?n+lo7>e tho Pnloiro tho TiTOichtS. resistless as their arguments seem; the sublime history of Christianity during these nineteen centuries offers a mighrtier and more eloquent plea for its divine origin and character, a perfect Gibraltar, against which all the shafts of infidelity seem but paper pellets. But as we turn again to the inspired narrative of the dream of the Babylonian king, we read that after the image was smitten and the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver and the gold were broken in pieces, becoming like the chaff of the summer threshing floor, the stone which destroyed the image became a great mountain and filled the whole earth. Thus in mystic symbolism was the truth revealed that the kingdom, which at length Jehovah should set up, was destined to universal prevalence. Nor are we limited in this view to the lansrunire of svmbols. '"Ask of Me and I will give thee the heatbeir for thine inheritance and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession." "The earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea." Thus David and Isaiah, peering through the perspective of coming years, beheld the wondrous ascendency of the kingdom of Immanuel. What appeared to these prophets of the olden time in vision appears to us translated into history, glorious with the grand achievements Christianity has wrought. Magnificent victories have followed its banners. Territory after territory has bean added to its dominions. Despite the opposition which its representatives have met, the fiery persecutions, not limited to the period of its introrlnntirm hilt hlifrhtinfr thr* rprnrflfi nf ten centuries, and, indeed, times long after the "dark ages," its growth Las been phenomenal; aye, more than that, divine. Palestine has become the moral centre of the -world. The prayer which Jesus has taught, "Thy kingdom come," is being graciously answered. Judging from the history of Christianity and reasoning from analogy, had we not the promises of the Sacred Word, we should be compelled to anticipate the ultimate triumphs of "The Redeemer's cause." The Indwelling of God. God is present with His own people in a sense which belongs to them alone. He is present by the revelation of His glory. Tliey liave learned to see His face and hear His voice in the world, so that the stars, which to other men are silent, speak of His wisdom to every faithful heart, and the sea tells of His power, and the fruits and flowers of earth seem to those who love Him as if they were offered by His bountiful hands.?Henry Van Dyke.

Inventor Rumage of clock fame was a warm friend of Eugene Field, and if quite as bald as the genial poet was. Being in Chicago one day be hurried to Field, exclaiming: "I am congratulating every bald headed man in town. Shake!'' "What's the matter?" said the author. "Well, I've been mixing up with the Anarchists of late, and every infernal scoundrel of them has a shock of hair as big as a sheaf of wheat." "That's so," replied Field "brains and hair don't grow together." Investigation of the Packers. Very general interest has been manifested in the Government investigation uow in progress into the mode of conducting business by the large packers located in Chicago and elsewhere. Much hr.s been written upon the alleged illegal and iinproper modes'of ousiness procedure connected with the packing industry; but it seems that so fur 110 definite charge of any kind has Ijeen sustained and no proof of illegal or inequitable methods has been disposed to the public. While a wave of severe criticism of this great industrial interest is now passing over the country it might be well to remember that the packers have had as yet no oppor +a ivinL*a ennnifi/i rlunfo I the luiiiij iv mane opv\.iiiv, mvu^um many indefinite charges of wrong-doing having never been formulated sc that a categorical answer could bf made. The recent report of Commissions Garfield, which embodied the results of an official investigation undertaker by the Department of Commerce and Labor of the United States, was a via dication of the Western packers, but this result having been unexpected at tempts iu many quarters to discredit il were made. In view of the situation as it now stands, however, attention may proper ly be called to a few facts that owinj to popular clamor are now being ap parently overlooked. Fair treatmeni in this country has heretofore been ac corded to all citizens whose affairs as sume prominence in the public eye anc some of the facts that bear upon the relation of the packers to the com meree of the country may at this time be briefly alluded'to. It would be illfKnnlt tr. octimnfo tho honofits cninwi by the farmers of the country resulting from the energetic enterprise ol the packers, for whatever is of benefil to the farmer is a gain to the entire commerce of the country. And connected with their continuous aggressive work no feature perhaps has been more important than their efforts in seeking outlets all over the world for the surplus products of the farmer. Our total exports of agricultural products have gained but little in the past twenty years, and leaving out corn, the total of all other farm products was far less in 1903 than in 1891. But in packing house products there was considerable gain during this period, be cause an organized and powerful force has been behind them seeking new and broader market.':. Besides the benefits reaped by farmers on account of the enterprise and energy exercised by the packers in attaining commercial results by foreign trade, the great development in the manufacture of packing house by-products lias added enormously to the value of all live stock raised in the United States. The waste material of twenty years ago, then an expense to the packer, is now converted into articles of great value and, as an economic fact, this, must correspondingly increase the value to the farmer of every head of cattle marketed at the numerous stock yards of the country. Let these facts be remembered while now it is so popular to regard the great packing industry as deserving of condemnation. At least it must be admitted that, so far. there is no adenimtp Vinson for the almost unani mous liowl that may be heard everywhere in the face of the Garfield report above alluded to which practically exonerates the packers frofn the obscure and indefinite charges that have been for some time past made the subject of popular comment.
