New York City.?Pointed yokes
make exceedingly attractive features
of many of the most charming of the
season's blouses. This one is combined
9 with a shirred lower portion and is eminently
graceful and well adapted to
Ifplf'
the fasliionablo soft and crushable
fabrics. As shown it is made of handkerchief
linen with trimming of Yaleuciennes
lace, but it can be utilized for
1' ' J
%
such soft silks as radium, Adrea and
the like, as well as for cotton aud linen
materials. A yoke of plain material,
iuset with medallions and insertion, as
is this one. is always attractive, but
it can be cut from any all-over material
if better liked.
The waist con si:-, is of the yoke and
the blouse portion, tlie blouse portion
being shirred and joined to the yoke
and the seam concealed by the trimming.
The closing is made invisibly
at the back. The sleeves can be either
in elbow or full length, and the lining
can be used or omitted, as material
renders desirable.
The quantity of material required for
Hie medium size is three yards twentyone,
two and three-fourth yards twenty-seven
or one and one-half yards
forty-four inches wide, with six yards
of Insertion to make as illustrated,
five-eighth yard eighteen inches wide
for the yoke when cut from contrasting
material, one and one-eigntn yarns 11
yoke and deep cuflfs both are used.
A Popular Dress Goods.
Some new makes of crepe chiffon
i have appeared purposely adapted for
i making seasonable dresses; preference
is given to rather light colors, particularly
to raspberry pinks, pale shades
of Parma violet, ash gray and rose
shades.
Hat tjnills the Knee.
Quills and eagle's feathers protrude
Mi norsistpntlv from all the new hats
[that the never-ending question of howto
place and fasten them results. Put
them outside of the brim in every case
where the hat is shaped so that you
can. and conceal the edges from under
n large straw buckle or tlat rosette of
velvet ribbon. The ribbon is laid on
tiny pleats or gathers, the inner end
being curved around like a straw
I crown, and the quill coming out
/ through it.
I Or, another way: Sew the quills to
ttu> side of the upturned briiu, draw
your velvet ribbou froui arouiid the
crown across them, and lay over this
a circle of gathered velvet ribbon, letting
it form a buckle holding the other
ribbon down. A third way was seen
in a narrow. Alpine;shaped hat. in
which two quills were pointed backward
from each *ide of the crown. A
band of red velvet was set over the
crown and three circular buckles made
of red beads '"ere placed over it along
the front, th* rjuills being thrust under
the two end ones.

A dainty blouse that is prettily #
trimmed with lace or other banding
tills so many needs that it may fairly n
t*? considered a necessity. This one is j u
made of Persian lawn with trimming E
of Cieruian Valenciennes lace and is j e:
unlined. The model is an adaptable
one, however, and would be effective in *
any of the thin, soft silks or light ?
weight wools that are made in lingerie
style, as well as washable materials, j q
while in addition to the lawn are a a
great many other cotton and linen
fabrics that will be found available, r
When silk or wool is used the lining,
which is made soft in blouse style, will
be found desirable. The German Va- c
lenciennes lace is one of the most fash- ^
ionable as well as the most desirable
of all trimmings, but there are a great p
many other bandings, and every sort a
of lace is fashionable this season, so b
that there is every opportunity for the
exercise of individual taste and prefer- *!

THE PULPIT.
N ELOQUENT SUNDAY StRMON B'/
BISHOP C. C. M'CA3E.
Subject : Tlie Frcaclier'i Commission.
Brooklyn. N. Y.?The New York Aveue
M. E. Church was crowded to its
tmost capacity Sunday morning when
iishop McCabe preached the Confernce
sermon. Bishop McCabe preached
ar Dearly an bour. His sermon was a
epical, old-style Methodist oration,
ml evidently pleased his hearers imlensely,
for his remarks were puncuated
from start to finish with cries
f "Amen," "Hallelujah!" "Yes, yes,"
nd frequent laughter.
Bishop McCabe's subject was "The
'neacher's Commission," and he took
ar his text the passage in Haggai:
And the desire of all nations shall
ome," He said:
Haggai was one of the prophets who
rent to the captive Israelites to help
3 rebuild the walls of the ruined ternle
and of their destroyed city. Zechriah
wa~ the other one. They were
oth men of vast hope find mighty
nith, and God gave them vision to
ead the future, and, because they saw
tie future, they were optimistic men.
'hey did not believe that anything was
do good to be true. We need such
len. We have enough men who tell
s how much better tne past -was xuuu
Lie present, and -who discourage us,
nd we need men who talk hopefully;
aen who speak of the future with deight,
because they know that the
/ord's prayer?that the will of God
hall be done on earth as It is in
leaven?will some day be fulfilled,
'hese two prophets went to the Israelis,
to Jerusalem, and struggled to
ebuild the temple, and they were
reatly needed. Cyrus, the King of
'ersia, allowed them to go. Cyrus was
he conqueror of Babylon, and these
ews had fallen into his hands and
e treated them finely. Cyrus was a
aan who believed in religious liberty,
t is strange that 2500 years ago there
?as a man in a high on earth position
rho believed that every man had a
ight to worship God according to the
ictates of his conscience. I know
lyrus believed in religious liberty be**
V* A
ause He was uoi u uew, uuu jti iac
llowed these Jews to go and rebuild
heir temple and ruined city. I think
iod loved Cyrus on thi& account. I
mow He did, because He sent him a
aessage by Isaiah, "I will go before
hee and make thy way straight before
hee." Cyrus would have made n
reat Czar of Russia; there would be
io more massacres of the Jews. And
rhat a great Sultan of Turkey he
pould have made! There woulu be
io more massacres of Armenians sirnly
because they were Christians. I
rust In God that the time will come
rhen a great man like Cyrus will ocupy
every throne on earth, and when
he idea that one man c$n control the
onscience of another shall pass away
orever. I have myself seen 5S0 intxuments
of torture which were used
iy men and devils?for I think the
[evil inspired men to use such instruoents
of torture?to make all men
hink alike. I looked with amazed inerest
at the "Maid of Nuremberg." a
errible instrument called by that
nmA. it consists of creat. wide doors.
ti which I counted nine spikes, several
aches long. When the victim was
sked for the last time "Will you reient?"
if he said "No," these doors
/ere slammed, and the victim quiverng
on these spikes would suffer more
nguish than Jesus Christ did on the
ross. Men and women to-day would
ather die than give up this old Bible,
r surrender the right to worship God
ccording to the dictates of conscience.
Ve enjoy liberty to-day because such
aen and women have lived in the
rorld. Let us prize the boon which
hey purchased with suffering and
ilood.

lad a letter yesterday from a promilent
man in this city, asking me if the
hurch was the friend of labor. I
vant to state publicly the creed of the
il. E. Church. We are the friends of

vho is not a friend of 100 per cent, is

rreed- of tlie M. E. Church, aud I state
t for them because they do not seem
lisposed to state it for themselves.
Vnd I believe I state the creed of al!
Protestant churches in this country.
Then, again, I think the old men
vept Localise of the contrast in the
)lans of the two temples.
"The Desire of All Nations." That is
>ne of the names of Christ. He had
tver 300 different appellations. Jacob
ailed Him "Shiloh;" Job, "Tlie Deliverer;"
David, "The Shepherd;" Isaiah,
'Wonderful," ."Counselor," "Mighty
5od," "Everlasting Father" and
'Prince of Peace;" John the Baptist,
'The Lamb of God;" Paul, the "Foreunner;"
at the Isle of Patmos, Jesus
;aid: "I am Alpha and Omega, the
irst and the last, the bright and mornng
star," and John called Him "King
?f Kings and Lord of Lords." But
he sweetest name of all is Jesus. 0.
vhat a sweet name it is. He is my
saviour. It took an nnsel to bring tliat
lame. Gabriel said: "His name shall
)e called Jesus"?that is the sweetest
lame of all?"His name shall be above
ill names." "At the name of Jesus
very knee shall bow."
Jesus, my Saviour, to Ilethlehem came,
Born in a manger in sorrow and shame;
0, it is wonderful, blest be His name,
Calling for me! Calling for rje!
He did come, "and His own received
FIim not." The Jews are still looking
'or Hira. That is the most pathetic
:l?ing in human history. A great
Hebrew scholar has translated the
S'ew Testament into Hebrew as a litjrary
venture, and a rich man in LonIon
,'s spending a large fortune in cirndaflng
it. I hope it will fly around
&e earth. Let us get the Jews concerted,
for that is the quickest way to
convert the world. Do you know that
here are 500,000 converted Jews? Let
:be giorious work go on.
Now, "what think ye of Christ?" Is
lie wearer of all these glorious names
livino nr luinnjin nr on onrol? S/imo
think He was a good man, a typical
man. the best man in the world, but
say He was not divine. They do not
even admit that He was an angelic
being. Some think He was God-man,
"God manifest in the flesh." .lesus is
divine. Peter believed that. Taul believed
it. He said: "By Him all
things created that are in Heaven and
in earth, visible and invisible: al
things were made by Him." Sucli
things cannot b said about an angel
or a human being. I think the epistle
to the Hebrews was written by Paul
to prove the divinity of Jesus. Some
scholars say Apollos wrote it. and no1
Paul, but Paul wrote it. There was
not anybody else great enough to write
it. We must have a divine Saviour.
No angel or human being could dc
what we need. He must be an Almighty
Saviour, One who is "might?
to save and strong to deliver." Oui
sorrows are too great for human consolation;
our sins are too mighty foi
the power of any man or angel. We
must have a divine Saviour?and we
have Qim. Do you believe Jesus

Do you desire Him?
Brethren in the ministry, it is youi

the world. Hurry with the Gospel
This is a sad world. There is one re
ligion that teaches that sorrow is sc
inescapable, that the best thing thai
can be done is to be blown out like s

Archbishop Temple has a ready

if an accident which prevented the
curate's aunt from taking a ship, -which
afterward sank, was an instance of
providential interference. Here's the
retort: "Can't tell; didn't know your

SKETCH OF THE LIFE
And a True Story of How
Had Its Birth and How
it to be Offered for Pu
This remarkable woman, whose
maiden name was Estes, was born in
Lynn, Mass., February 9th, 1810, coming
from a good old Quaker family.
For some years she taught school, and
became knowr as a woman of an alert
and investigating mind, an earnest
seeker after knowledge, and above
all, possessed of a wonderfully sympathetic
nature.
In 1843 she married Isaac Pinkham,
a builder and real estate operator, and
their early married life was marked by
prosperity and happiness. They had
four children, three sons and a
daughter.
In those good old fashioned days it
was common for mothers to make
their own home medicines from roots
and herbs, nature's own remediescalling
in a physician only in specially
urgent cases. By tradition and experience
many of them gained a wonderful
knowledge of the curative properties
of the various roots and herbs.
Mrs. Pinkham took a great interest
in the study of roots and herbs, their
characteristics and power over disease.
She maintained that just as nature so
bountifully provides in the harvestfields
and orchards vegetable foods of
all kinds; so, if we but take the pains
to find them, in the roots and herbs
of the field there are remedies expressly
designed to cure the various
ills and weaknesses of the body, and
it was her pleasure to search these out,
and prepare simple and effective medicines
for her own family and friends.
Chief of these wa6 a rare combination
of the choicest medicinal roots
and herbs found best adapted for the
cure of the ills and weaknesses peculiar
to the female sex, and Lydia E.Pinkham's
friends and neighbors learned
that her compound relieved and cured
and it became quite popular among
them.
All this so far was done freely, without
money and without price, as a
labor of love.
But in 1873 the financial crisis struck
Lynn. Its length and severity were too
much for the large real estate interests
of the Pinkham family, as this class
of business suffered most from
fearful depression, so when the Centennial
year dawned it found their property
swept away. Some other source
of income had to be found.
At this point Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound was made known
to the world.
The three sons and the daughter,
with their mother, combined forces to
