New York City.?The fhirt waist that is trimmed with little frills makes a novel feature of the season's Btyles, and is essentially dainty and charming. This one is mads of white French linen, while the frills are of lawn, and it is worn with a separate embroidered collar, but every waistlng material is appropriate and the frills can be varied to suit the special one selected. For warm weather wear madras, handkerchief linen, n- j Mii r\P +Vim cnrt JilWll duu an maw laiii ui i.uu ?v>? , are much to be commended, while for the cool days thai occur at all seasons taffeta and light weight wools are desirable. In place of the separate collar a stock of the material can be used If better liked, while the 6leeves allow a choice of full or elbow length. Where the material of the waist is thin enough the frills can be made of the same, but if it is heavy, as In the case of the linen, lawn, eitner linen or cotton, maKes me u^i " """ " | LV material. Or again the pleated frills that can he bought by the yard can be used if liked, although those that are gathered are somewhat easier to launder. A little embroidered edging is pretty for these last, while for the silk and wool materials ribbon is well liked. The waist is made with front and back. The back is tucked from shoulders to waist line. The fronts are loM in crnnnc r\f narrow fimlre fhof JU..U b' ?'?? extend for lull length and the wider tucks that extend to yoke depth only. There is a regulation shirt waist pleat at the front and the neckband iinishes j the neck. The sleeves are gathered at their upper edges and are joined j to straight bands, whether they are used in full or elbow length, but the long sleeves are finished with rollover cuffs that are joined to the low-' er edges of the bands. The quantity of material required for the medium size is three and fiveeighth yardfe twenty-seven, three and one-half yards twenty-two or two yards forty-four inches wide with two and three-eighth yards of readymade ruffling or one-quarter yard of linen lawn if gathered frills are used. Hats of Green. Green hats and green trimmings are one of the late summer's introductions among popular fancies. A smart one was seen yesterday with a white linen suit. The hat was of fine green straw trimmed with a soft drapery of green silk and two big gray speckled wings, over which fell a pair of softly shaded green wings. The hat was the shape of a big bell. i Ribbons I<'or Underskirts. Underskirts are growing more and more elaborate, and broad ribbon clays a.i important part in them. Many are of peau de suede, with deep sifrk flounces, while white, ba. tiste petticoats are much trimmed with insertions of laoe and minutely pleated batiste and mousseline de eoie. ??*^=? ioKagiy SeavrecO in Millinery. 9* I.ong sprays of feathery seawood ei are the latest millinery importation I from England.

The sleeves, instead * of being drawn down closely and | a tightly at the shoulders, are puffed out. and in many cases the puffs are p] so large that one is reminded of the 01 puffed sleeves of several years ago. m in Stylish Frocks Made. 01 Bordered foulards, marquisettes, -pj voiles and all the thin silk muslins jj, arri ninnns lend themselves readily to b( helping any one with a medium pc amount of ability to turn out a really h( fashionable frock.

THE PULPIT. N ELOQUENT SUNDAY SERMON BY THE REV. F. BOYD EDWARDS. Subject: Personality. tVilliamstown, Mass.?The Rev. F. cyd Edwards, assistant pastor of le South Congregational Church, rooklyn, who graduated from the allege here seven years ago, was the jllege preacher Sunday. His subict was: "Personality?Its Influace and Secret." The text was from Thetsalonians, 5:23: "And the ery God of peace sancuiy jou holly; and I pray God your whole jirit and soul and body be pre;rved blameless unto the coming of ur Lord Jesus Christ." Mr. Edards said: Huxley declared that if some great 3wer would guarantee to enable him Iways to speak what is true and do hat is right, on condition of his betg turned into a sort of clock and ound up every morning, he would istantly close with the offer. Would Dti? I think not one man in a hunred would. Why not? Because we ave instinctive aversion to doing olence to the greatest thing in the orld. And what is that? Drurnond said "Love." Let us look at it little. Consider Helen Kellar, born to im-isonment in the dungeon of her vn mere selfhood ? deaf, blind, ute. Miss Sullivan, by patient and spired service, released her from tat imprisonment, led her slowly it into the light and glory of life, he something which made Miss Sultan eager and able to render this ;autiful service was love. But in )int of greatness even that high and ;neficent quality is absolutely intmparable with Helen Kellar herlf. The greatest thing in the world personality. Love is but a part of , supplementing and crowning its her parts, all beauty and majesty physique, all vigor and grit and iurage, all mental keenness, reach, asp and decision, all the subtle aces of mind and heart, high spiritil vision and deep insight, all puri, dignity and serene poise of-spirit, tiese combine to make what we ime personality. Look about you in a railway carage, a hotel lobby, a great college andstand. Your eye passes lightly rer 100 men. The one hundred and st holds it. You may not know ho he is, nor ever have seen him here, but straightway you say to >urself, he is somebody. Something >out him distinguishes him, gives m a manifest significance, like the ident value of a gold coin. That mething is personality and it is lf-revealing. Take Webster, for stance. They said when he walked Beacon street the houses looked aaller. Sidney Smith called him e greatest living lie, because no>dy could possibly be so great as he oked. Edward Everett declared at when he was earnestly speaking arks of fire leaped in his eyes. A ist of him, exhibited by a European ulptor, was mistaken for a head of ive. Or note how Emerson says at "William of Orange won a subct away from the King of France ery time he put off his hat," so noe was his bearing. A Boston newsiper reported that on a certain day rr4- /> w o n amIf n r> aouiugivu oitcct woo uaia. auu oomy, until Phillips Brooks passed, hereupon the brightness returned. ae might have profited almost as uch by a look into Emerson's face I by reading his books. Just a impse of Napoleon at the hour of ittle doubled the fighting force of ose who saw him. Often one can II by the author's likeness In the ontispiece of a book whether it's orth while to go any further. The ilo in art is far more than a melanical contrivance to denote sainted. It witnesses to the fact that ue men carry an atmosphere; they e fairly luminous. The captain of 1 athletic team, if well chosen, takes nk not by virtue of superior playg or technical knowledge of the tme, but because there is about him quality which makes his vim and lirit contagious. Church committees looking for a sw minister pass by a score of posble eligibles and choose the twenty st. The others were as good eachers, as thorough scholars, as ithful pastors, but the elect one >ssesses this rare and compelling mething we call magnetism, which but a vague term indicating pernality. The speaker who possesses often influences his audience alost as much, while he stands silent ifore them for a moment, as during e hour of his speaking. This is the lality which accounts for the sayg: "You have to like Mr. Roosevelt ter you have met him." Personity!?no other creation equals or jproaches it. Indeed, when Jehoih accerdited Moses as His ambas.dor to the court of Pharaoh, He mmanded as the chief authority: rell him I Am sent you." Now, then, since personality is the eatest thing in the world, what is ie chief duty of man? I answer, sliberately: To honor, develop, excess and invest that personality, his is not egotistic and selfish. God ive man this personality as his tool, ie finest, noblest, chief implement ith which to make his mark on the orld, serve his kind and honor his aker. When the old bishop of the ??thnriict C.Vinrrh was ovq rn f n i r? c u oup of candidates for the ministry, 2 asked them: "Are you willing to 3 a nobody in Christ's service?" nd every last one of them piously is he thought) answered yea. Phen you're a poor lot!" exclaimed ie bishop. And so they were. That a kind of humility which is not hristian, because it is not only un oductive, but contemptible. Christ's an should be willing to take any jmble station, but wherever he may ?, always determined by God's grace ) to live, to labor, to fight, and to :ay that as the servant of the Most igh he shall weigh every ounce he in, strike blows that hit hard, and ean to his time all that he can pos bly signify. Being a Christian man is being all man can be. Holiness is near kin i haleness, which means health, and nleness close kin to wholeness, hicli means integrity, soundness, unpieteness. Christian life is not iving np, but growing up; rot loping oil, but looming up. Its true 3te is not ascetic, but athletic, and hen Christ announced that He came lat men might have life more abunintly I-Ie did not mean longer life, at over/lowing, rich in content id extent, with far horizons and idc outlook. Just this Browning nnh.isizes when he says: od gives each man one life, jilce ?. Inmvi, I lien gives that lamp due measure of oil; I imp lighted, hold high, wave wide. All very fine, you say, for the raa?i ho happens lo have been endowed ith personality! But how about the undred men who do not strike an jserver as being somebody, v.'ho ivea't Uie gift of personal mnsnei q tism? Wei!, my answer is that per* sonality is not all endowment; it may be acquired or more accurately yet, developed. When the spring comes and the sun's rays fall more warmly, the grass and leaves begin to grow. There are seeds in the ground and life-dormant and waiting to be stirred. The sun might shine a million years, hot as midsummer, and without those seeds lying there waiting, no fair garment of verdure would ever clothe the hare, brown body of earth. And vice versa. Just so, we notice now and again a former stenographer and private secretary to presidents becomes a Cabinet officer. Partly it is from native endowment, and partly from the wakening I influence of association with great men. Character is not taught, but caught; not fully inborn, nor springing, full armed, like Minerva from Jove's head, but wakened, roused, kindled by the contagious touch of another of a little longer development, and maybe, of larger growth. Yet after all, this is the fine fundamental truth of life. Every man Is of unique value, has a rare gleam of virtue for his own, his point of view, V?ln TT7ArTr QT1/1 TY1OCOI CQ iild IJLiUl V1U UCll nuia uuu uiwgou0v) which no other man can have had. His business in life is to live that out, build it up, utter it, make, it effective. How shall he do it? By'getting out where the sun can strike down to those seeds that are waiting in him; that means: make helpful friendships, listen to wise teachers, keep high company with men who have deeps and heights about them. Read Paul's prayer written to the men in Thessalonica: "The very God of peace sanctify you wholly (set you apart, distinguish you in every great way), and I pray God your whole body, soul and spirit be kept without blemish even in the presence of Christ. Faithful is he who hath promieed, who also will do it." Just to this point was Emerson speaking when he said: "Follow God, and where you go men shall think they walk in hallowed cathedrals." Phillips Brooks puts it: "The influence of a man whose heart God hath touched is like a breeze of fresh air let into a heated and stifling room." You are a lamp of three wicks?body, soul (mind) and spirit. Let God light them (most likely He has alreaay); now you turn them up: keep them trimmed, let them blaze wherever vmi nro thrnwinsr nuf: vniir cheer. your light, your beacon message in your time. Then, "as one flame kindlet.h another nor groweth less thereby," so shall your life kindle, waken, rouse others. In every-day terms, what does it mean? My body: honor It, build ft up, keep it undishonored. By noble uses, make it to become a sanctuary. Build thee more stately mansions, oh my soul, While the swift seasons roll,Leave thy low-vaulted past. Let each new temple nobler than the last, Shut thee from heaven by a dome more vast. Till thou at length art free. Leaving thine outgrown shell By life's unresting sea. My mind; meditate, store it with true thoughts, pure thoughts, thoughts fit to treasure up; l?t it keep company with the noblest men of the ages, whose wisdom, vision and profitable experience may be made my own by an hour's reading every day; let me prepare myself to recognize, appreciate, respond to and succeed the truest, most devoted and helpful spirits of all the days past and present, and finally keep ray eyes on the stainless peaks where Christ Is. My spirit; how great a word it is! All generous impulses, all chivalrous motives, all noble aspirations, all love of beauty and truth and goodness; every hatred of weakness and wrong, every fine portrait of memory and ideal! Ob, match this spirit with all the best about you; open it to Him who knows what is in man, and who alone has grace to bestow and loving power of mastery to develop your unawakened best. Arid always remember how He reckons in the yearnings, the unuttered and unutterable aspirations there: All instincts immature, all purposes unsure, That weighed not as his work, yet swelled the man's amount. Thoughts hardly to be packed into a single act; Fancies that broke through language and escaped, All I could never be, all men ignored in me, This I was worth to him, Whose wheel the pitcher shaped. Special Anointings. If Jesus was anointed to preac'i the gospel, how much more do we in these modern times need a special touch of the Spirit of God for this work!

Alcohol is a Direct and Powerful Poison to the Nerves?Cause of Mental Diseases in Forty Per Cent, of All Cases of Insanity. The following article is reprinted . from the School Physiology Journal: Alcohol is unquestionably a direct and powerful poison to the nervous fetructure. It not only temporarily impairs and prevents the activity of rervous tissue, but in a measure, though at times every minute and filraost imperceptible, every dose of ;t permanently disables the functional Activity of those organs. Biology teaches that all the nervbus tissue develops unequally. Certain centres and paths develop earlier than others. Certain high centres aever develop in some individuals. What, is the infliipnrp nf nlcnhnl Upon this organism? No doubt exists is to the effects of large doses. While ihese are well-known and acknowledged, much is being said and argued about the so-called moderate doses. What is a moderate dose? On the basis of extensive inquiry, it was estimated that a moderate drinker consumes between * eighty and 100 grammes of alcohol daily (2 1-2? B 1-2 oz.). That figure is rather underestimated than otherwise, as can be easily seen from the reports of per capita consumption of liquor in Ihis country, since the figures include all women and children. Accepting that figure, however, for the sake of argument, permit me to state emphatically that such, and even much less average consumption of alcohol in steadily increasing degree affects the nervous organism, ?ommencing, of course, with the most Selicate (tissues). This is all the more important for ns to consider, because of a peculiar action of this drug in creating a more or less constant desire for its use, so that habitual and increasing use of It is a rule rather than an exception, after the first few doses have been taken. How far-reaching are the results of the tremendous alcohol consumption I can best state to you by referring to the two all-absorbing topics of human progress and human degeneracy. On one side not a day passes but we can obtain evidences of unmistaken progress of our human race. On the other hand, it is a fact that there is an actual increase in mental and nervous diseases, particularly in insanity. If there were no other reason, this evidence of present human degeneracy would certainly merit our serious consideration. Creation al- j ways was and always xUll be a struggle, and our own struggle is steadily J increasing rather than diminishing. It is perfectly evident that throughout the process of evolution two distinct forces or agencies have been in evidence; one elevating, stimulating and strengthening; the other, degrading, depressing and weakening. Whatever means or agency degrades or weakens one member of the human race is an enemy to us o 11 Thn cf o era f\f ctriiccrlp f OT fnril CXI 1. A UC OMb^V Vt uv? M00?v ?w.

I However prominent and apparently ! all-overwhelming may be the selfish- i ness of Individuals and corporations, it is undoubtedly true that there is J manifest a genuine efTort to fight j also for the life and benefit of others.

In short, whatever harms that organ impairs nnii often destroys that which makes us what we are, the kings within I creation.
