New York City.?Military effects
are greatly in vogue just now, and
this blouse is one of the favorites of
the season. In the illustration it is in
made of striped material and its st
smartness is somewhat enhanced by tjj
the fact that it could be utilized for c0
plain fabrics cut on the straight if
the bias effect is not liked. It is the
straps and buttons that really give
the military suggestion, and these re- sj,
main however the material itself may
be cut. The model is closed invisibly ar
beneath the strap at the back, but gC
those women who find that waists
that close at the front are a boon can ^
easily make it that way by simply
closing the back seam and finishing
tne iront eages unaer me sirup.
The waist is made with fronts, sidefronts,
backs and side-backs, the varl- sa
ous joinings allowing of the chevron
effect, which is so well liked just now. b?
The fronts are joined to the yoke
portions and the side-fronts are ;
tucked. The straws conceal all the | 0
seams and the straight military collar m
finishes the neck. The sleeves are
made in sections and the seams joining
them are to be found beneath the
Btraps, while straps also trim the m
lower edges. ju

Headgear For Bridesmaids. tic
' The bridesmaids of this season are of
evidently determined to specialize it:
upon pretty and quite uncommon jo
headgear. One bevy of charming g?
girls recently seen looked most pic- to
turesque with wisps of tulle twisited
turban-like upon their tresses, and fo
fastened at one side beneath snravs of
gilded wheat. Another set wore white
Valkyrie wings, supported by a circlet
of pleated gauze. A distinguished
milliner has made mob caps of siWerflaked
white gauze for a retinue of
bridesmaids, garlanded with a ruche
of frayed blue silk. *
Pongee Parasols.
Many of the pongee parasols are
embroidered in all-over design, or in
n deep border, the embroidery usually
being in self color, though occasionally
the Chinese and Japanese designs
and colorings are employed and rich
Oriental blues, creens and yellows are
used upon the natural toned ground.
Some very good pongee models are
quite plain, save for a wide border of
gay stripes or a border of gay color '
embroidered in pongee-toued dots.

een or purple as a bracelet, and to !
Is is securely pinned a rather small j
inch of violets, flatly grouped. >

Bangs are coming back to fashion, |
it that does not mean that young ,

tag days. The new bang is a soft,
iny row of what are called pincurls
isting on the forehead, just below
e pompadour; and they are called
ncurls presumably because a good
auy of them are attached to a hairn
arrangement and tucked in after
e pompadour is finished. That is to
y, they have no more connection
ith the wearer's head than they i
ive with the braids and puffs and |

A SCHOLARLY SUNDAY SERMON BY ?
DR. C. D. CASE, PH. D. r
s
Theme: Perseverance.
1
Tirooklvn. N. Y.?For his final ser- s
mon before going to Buffalo to be- \
come the pastor of the Delaware Ave- d
nue Baptist Church, the Rev. C. D. g
Case, Ph. D., in the Hanson Place I
Baptist Church, took as his subject
"The Regards of Perseverance." The v
text, was those passages found r
in the Book of Revelation, 2:7, 11, I
17, 26, 27; 3:5, 12 and 21, describing ^
the rewards of overcomiug. Dr. Case g
said: v
The word "overcome" is a martial c
term. It implies an enemy, a conflict, t
a victory. It suggests the soldier of r
Christ fighting against spiritual I
forces of wickedness and arrayed in v
the helmet of salvation, the breast- e
plate of righteousness, the girdle of c
truth, the sandals of the gospel of Ii
peace, the sword of the Spirit and the a
shield of faith. It presents the Chris- i:
tian life, not in terms of rest and en- I
joyment, association and service, but \
nf strnzerie. it is a word for the nres- C
ent, a clarion call to achievement. t
The victorious crusado of the Chris- t
tian is not here pictured as coming c
only at the end of life. A desperate 2
encounter with evil is to he met with, 1
not only at the time of conversion and c
the time of death, but unceasingly i
through life. There is no thought of v
truce or furlough, no suggestion of \
recuperation or dress^parade. There t
is to be no day of retreat. r
It is the contest of the individual p
against his enemies. The message is t
to the church, the task is personal, c
The heart is the citadel, and the ap- o
proaches are the source of constant t
attack. The flesh is weak, even p
though the spirit is willing. There is s
a conflict between the law of God and
the law of sin in our members. Even C
though Christ be enthroned in the p
life, the outposts will be repeatedly t
assailed. The success of the church I
unnn => .f a i th (111 n PKK ftf t.hfi T
individual members. e
The seven-promises to the churches k
as given by Christ repeat the history n
of the race up to the founding of the J
throne of JDavid, the period of Is- e
raelitish history most symbolical of t
the kingdom of God. The world's c
history begins with the tree of life r
which is forbidden to the parents of d
the race. Then follows as striking I
providences of God thj punishment of g
death and the promise of the Deliv- i
erer, the giving of the tables of stone
and the heavenly manna, the repeated c
victories ever the national enemies, "
the enrollment of the heroes of war, r
the building of the great temple and I
the establishment of the throne of c
David forever. God's plan is one and F
ths salvation to be given in the final r
award is but the culmination of God's t
eternal purpose. What God will do t
for us at last is to be seen in the his- t
tory of the race in prcphetic promise, v
Tha first promise, found in Revela- t
tion 2:8, is: "To him that overcom- f
eth, to him will I give to eat of the I
tree of life, which is the paradise of u
God." Thus are connected the beginning
and the end of history even c
as Christ Himself is the Alpha and g
Omega, the first and the last. Yet i
the second Paradise differs widely i a
frcm the first. In the passage of the t
text, Paradise is Heaven, not the in- a
termediate state, and it is presented c
not as a garden "where two human be- i
ings are surrounded by the luxuries I
of nature, but a city throbbing with t
life, teeming with multitudes. Not t
isolation but association, is the strik- v
ing feature. The tree of life is the h
fulfillment of the spiritual meaning c
of the prayer, "Give us this day our t
daily bread." As the tree of lifa bears I
twelve manner of fruits, yielding its v
fruit every month, so life abundant t
is the reward of victory. And life is e
more than mere existence; it is t
wealth of thought, it is richness of c
companionship, it is the acme of un- C
selfishness, it is the larger life when c
comes the statelier Eden back to F
man." when family, society, govern- a
ment, national and international, is j
the creation of God-fed and God-led h
children of men. I
The second promise is that the victor
shall not be hurt of the second
death. There is a first death ard a
second death, though the term second
death is not mentioned in the Gospels *
or epistles. But Christ Himself tells ?
tis net to fear him who can destroy J
the body, but rather fear Him who
can cast both soul and lody into hell. 1
The first death is the heritage of the .
race, and is not directly the punishment
of individual sin. Even Christ ^
became obedient unto death, though *
He knew no sin. Neither sickness ?
nor death may mean that either a
' * 1. i .1 mu- S
man or ms pureius uave smueu. a no
second death is the exact result of
sin. It is for the fearful and unbelieving
and abominable and murderous
and whore mongers and sorcerers
and idoiaters and all liars. The first
is momentary in its effects, the second
eternal.
The Smyrna Christians were bitterly
persecuted, but Christ promises
them freedom from the second death.
The church is challenged because it
makes its rewards future. Wrongs
need present righting, says the critic;
what we want is Heaven on earth.
True, very true, but the ideal for
earth is Heaven. As long as the sense
of immortality is in man, as long as
there remain unavenged wrongs on
earth, as long as any individual life r
passes out into the great unknown (
with present hopes thwarted, as long S
as the successes of transitory years t
dissatisfy, so long shall we need the j
prospect of a Heaven where neither a
the first nor the second death shall s
enter. I
A third reward of perseverance Is i
the hidden manna, and the white g
stone inscrioea wun me secret new i
name. The very name of "manna" t
carries the mind back to that period
of hunger when God rained down s
from Heaven the sustaining food, j
The real meaning of this miracle is 1
revealed when Christ says: "I am the t
bread of life which came down out of j
Heaven." It is Christ that sustains, t
Not only is His life the ideal but His t
companionship the inspiration. Christ t
is unseen, but His presence no less
real and more vital than the friend
seen at our side. Christ as the bread
of life is "hidden manna," because the j
process of partaking of Christ is as g
unseen as the assimilation ?f food, j
and the assurance of salvation is a f
? ^ t._i i- - 1 1 ^
mailt1! ueiweeu me sum auu g
alone. "Blessed are those that hun- f
ger and thirst after righteousness." z
There is nothing that satisfies the
hungry soul but Christ.
Then there is that secret name Inscribed
on the white stone. There are
many interpretations of its meaning, j
such as that the stone ia ?i ticket of J
admission or a vote of acquittal. But,
after all, the believer with his hidden j
manna lias a new heart. There is
both a new power of assimilation and
a new food to be assimilated. The
old law was written on two tables of
stone, but the new law, 30 Ezekiel \
declares, is to be written on the heart, i
Forced obedience is to be changed t
into a second nature that voluntarily 1
fors right. The 'oeliever is not free
rom the law, hut he does naturallj
vlmt the law requires. There is bill
>ne secret for this marvelous trans
ormation. 'and that is, Christ. Foi
ne to live is Christ, says Paul. Iiv
tead of the ten commandments w<
iave the name of Jesus inscribed or
>ur hearts. He who lives the Christ
ife obeys tha law without compulion.
What better comparison car
ve make between the old and the new
lispensation, the old law and the new
:race? Here is the "secret of th(
jord."
Human finiteness can only vaguelj
inderstand Go'd's omniscience. Hu<
aan ignorance needs a journal and z
edger. God needs many books bj
yhich righteous judgment shall be
;iven. He needs a book of Jtfe bj
yhich no mistake may be made ir
ondeming the innocent and saving
he wicked. He has a book of reaembrance
for those that fear the
,ord and think upon His name; the
wanderings of the persecuted are
lumbered and his tears are all reorded.
The great day of judgment
s cimply the opening of the books
.nd the reading of a reward or punshment
already determined upon
Jlesoed are those whose names are
written in tne L.amD s dook oi jne
)riginally, probably, the idea of a
iook of registry arose from the mulicipal
lint of Jerusalem. "It shall
ome to pass that he that is left ii
lion and be that remalneth in Jerusa
em shall be called holy, even everj
>ne that is written among the living
n Jerusalem." Evidently the mar
/hose citizenship is in Heaven, and
/ho being risen with Christ seeks
hose things that are above, is thus
egistered in the new Jerusalem. The
leople at Sarais had a name thai
hey lived, but they were dead. A
hurch registration is not always synonymous
with a Heavenly registraion.
"Remember, therefore, and re ent."
Not professors, but possesors,
count with God.
The sixth promise of Lhe risen
'hrist is that the victor shall be s
illJar in the temple inscribed with
he name of God, Heaven and Jesus
n Solomon's porch t~ere were twe
tillars, one marked Jachin, "He shall
establish," and the other Boaz, "ir
lis strength." In the church militant
tot all are pillars. Paul declares thai
ames, Peter and John were considred
to be pillars. But in the new
emple of God all are pillars, not onlj
olumns of support, but also monunents
commemorating the greal
leeds of the past. The saved ol
leaven shall record salvation bj
;race and be "songs without words'
u praise of God.
Upon each piilar shall be the name
if God, of the new Jerusalem, and
mine own new name." What new
lame? Emmanuel, "God with us?'
ledeemer, the one who has purchased
iur redemption? Jesus, the nam;
irecious to every believer? We dc
lot know; still, as the name signifies
he personality, so we shall receive
hat name of Jesus, which answers
o our own inner experience. Whal
ve are then will be what Christ has
teen to us. The Father will see re[acted
in us the looks of Chiist; His
mage and superscription will be or
is._
The Jast promise is 10 me j^aoai
eans?"He that overcometh, I wil
;ive to him to sit down with Me
n My throne as I also overcame
.nd sat down with My Father in His
hrone." When Napoleon had beer
ppointed emperor by the senate, the
eremony took place in 1804 accordng
to the solemn ceremonial of the
Icly Roman Empire. Pius VII. had
aken the crown from the altar read}
o place it upon Napoleon's head
when the latter seized it and put it or
lis head himself. Christ seized nc
rown for Himself. In that He
lumbled Himself, Gcd highly exaltec1
lim. Now He in turn exalts the one
,'ho humbled himself and gives life tc
;im who is willing to lose it. Sovereignty?that
is, victory, authority
oastery?belongs to these who overome
with Christ. Whoever, hearing
Christ at the door knocking, and ther
ipens the door, shall admit a Com(anion
who will bind fellowship bj
. common meal. Such a one now enoying
friendship with Christ in His
lumility shall enjoy "it with Christ .'e
lis glory.
Unsuspected i)anger?-.__
Tasteless poison is the most daiT
,rerous kind, for it shows no dangei
ignals to tell us of its presence ir
ood or drink. There is less to be
eared of carbolic acid than of ptonaines.
The. devil's tasteless poisons are
he sins of omission. When he woulc
jet us to commit active sin, he musl
ry to conceal the fumes of taste 01
imell, and it is not always easy to d<
his. So he prefers to begin with the
uggestion that we simply leave somehing
undone, and most of us swallov
hat poison unsuspectingly.
There is no great harm in stayinc

| The money stringency in Russia
| following the war and the revolutionary
difficulties has reduced many good
workmen to living by their wits. Very
old devices have been employed by
men and women who are hard pressed
in the struggle for life. An amusing
incident has come to light in the
Nikolsk-Ussuri district, where the
population consists almost entirely of
males.
A number of impoverished peasants
put their heads together one day and
resolved to set up as a firm of bride
importers. A certain amount of capital
was of course required for the
start, but as success was assured
there was ro difficulty about raising
it. The partners them set out each
one separately on his journeytoplaces
in Russia where the females out
j numbered the males by tour or rive
. -to one. There are many such cantons
. in central Russia, indeed there are
5 some where the proportion is ten to
one.
1 The searcher for brides once located
in some such district picked out
l the most desirable girls for wives and
. persuaded them to accompany him to
r his ftome, where he would promise
J them they shoufd find most desirable
1 husbands. After he had secured a
1 bevy of fair candidates for matrimony
he bought cheap railway tickets for
them and brought them all safely to
their destination.
From the very first the venture has
been a great success. Competition is
keen among the men and the offers
for brides rise so quickly that the
affair is virtually an auction. The
terms settled, the priest is informed,
and then it is his turn to play a part
in publishing the banns and performing
the marriage service. The' present
to the "bride's father," as the
trader in wives is called, is where the
profit of the firm comes in. No offer
of less than $50 is considered, and the
price often mounts up to $100. The
r girl's railwa'V ticket, board and sun'
dries on the journey cost about $25,
so the profit is anywhere from $25 tc
* $75, besides a gallon or so of vodka
; thrown in. It will be a time of
mourning for the firm when all the
men in the district are provided for
> and the bride trade is finished.
1 The credit of hitting upon anothei
r simple way of turning an honest
penny belongs to the respectable guild
of washerwomen in the Russian capital.
They noticed that a numerous
class of people need starched spotless
linen for their daily avocations who
cannot afford to pay for it7 Prominent
among these ill starred members
of society are the waiters in restaurants
and hotels and mutes who
have to wear top hats and evening
dress clothes and carry torches at
funerals.
In order to solve this problem and
supply a long felt want a': a moderate
cost the ladies of the washtubs lend
out well starched linen for a funeral
or a banquet and inform the lawful
owners of the property that it is not
yet quite ready. The press declares
that the easy going inhabitant of St.
Petersburg does not mind much when
he discovers, if he does discover, the
double trade his laundry woman is
[ carrying on with his ciotnes as capital.?St.

A Great Smoker.
A Pittsburg millionaire said al a
dinner:
"I lunched with Sir Thomas Lipton
at the Ghezireh Palace, in Cairo, just
before he set out for his tea plantation
in Ceylon, where the ex-Empress
Eugenie was to visit him. When the
coffee came on I opened my gold case
and offered Sir Thomas a beautiful
aromatic cigarette fresh from the
factory down the street.
" 'No, thank you,' said he. 'I am,
with one possible exception, the biggest
smoker in the world, but I never
smoke cigars nor cigarettes.'
" 'What do you smoke?' said I.
" 'Bacon,' he answered."?New
