Wauiaa'a Box Coat. The box coat makes a most desira ble, serviceable and stluu jacket for all round general wear. The May Mantoo model shown in the large drawing Includes the latest features and Is made from tan-colored broad cloth, but covert cloth, cheviot, mel ton and both blue and black broad cloth are appropriate. The regulation box fronts extend well under the arms to meet the seamless back in shapely curved seams that are left open a few Inches from thu lower edge. The sleeves are two-seamed, iu regular coat style, and are stitched to give a uff effect. At the neck Is a roll over collar of velvet that meets the frouta in pointed revers.

Bewildering In numbers, srae and styles are the silver or steel shoe buckles, so commonly worn with low hoes, slippers and ties. Consequent ly It Is rather relief to the eye to see dainty lady in ber tailor-made gown of ecru linen, with a foot peeping out beneath tbe beni, and a little shoe In nocent of buckles. The ties are half low and are laced trp with narrow rib bon of black ribbed silk. They are tout and strong, and finished with a neat butterfly bow. A Fren.fc Fad. Te plan of booking dresses up tbe s) 4 tck seouig to be on of the French fnds this season, most of the French gowns being fastened In this way. It does away with many of the diffi culties which the dressmaker encoun ters In trying to arrange the compli cated fronts, but in nine cases out of ten It ruins the effect of the back, which is perhaps the most noticeable Cue in the gown. Organdv Turn-Over. Ilrnad, soft collars of white organdy or while lawn are a highly becoming substitute for the slilf little linen turn overs, which are too severe for beauty. A broad, soft collar of lawn or or gandy edged with lace or bordered with Insertions of needlework or em broidery is a far more becoming piece of lingerie than a linen Imud. These new collnrs luunilcr lo perfection, and so need not be considered expensive. FUt Skirts Again. Flat skirts, similar to those" worn a few years ago, are very likely to be come fashionable ag.un. They have neither gathers nor cleats round the hips nor in the Ink k. These skirts have very llttletlare at the foot; what ever flare there is commences low down, and Is almost exclusively re served to the hack. Glnrea Worn in Three Shades. The colors of gloves have absolutely been reduced to three, namely, gray, iu shades from silver white to steel; plain brule or biscuit, and the old lav ender of 1J0 revived. Suode gloves are considered more stylish than glace kid, and owing to the length of sleeves only three Inches are u-oru. A Wrap For Stylo. For the woman who wants to wear a wrap of some sort lu summer whether she needs one or not. there is the transparent bolero of tucked mousseiine, outlined all around the edge with an applique of lace.

Dressy, pretty little aprons that cov er and protect the frock of the playing child serve the double purpose of mak ing a most attractive effect and serv ing a practical end. The styl'sh May Manton model Illustrated Includes many desirable features and is cut after the latest model. It completely covers tbe skirt, leaving only tbe sleeves exposed, and can, when desira ble, be worn with the guluipe alose; or, for still greater cooluess. over the petticoat, lecvlug the throat and arms bare.

Know Art anil Science and Ha Many Other AcroinpllAbmenta. The resldeut lady governess, who, In romance, bus always played such a vivid, telling part, and who. In real life, drew a salary a cook would de spise, and accepted snubs a housemnld would resent. Is no more. In her place has appeared the lady tutor, who does not expect to entangle the affections of the young gentleman of the family, accept a pittance In exchouge for the instruction she gives, or play the part of mental mnld of all work to a crew of noisy, restless, badly spoiled chil dren. First and foremost she Is a college graduate, with a sheepskin, a lot of self respect and several special ties. She has either graduated with a view to making private Instruction, as site calls It, her life Work, or she will take a position as summer tutor to children whose parents wish them to be coached in certain lines; and this she does merely lo title over a dull season or accumulate funds for furth er Intellectual expansion at home or abroad. Whether a professional or tempor ary tutoress, she does not pretend to give truining iu nil the arts, sciences and accomplishments as her Incompe tent predecessor was always willing to guarantee. This up-to-date private Instructor will conduct courses in American history and In biology, or higher mathematics and F.oglisb, or (ierman literature with music, and the choice is usually dependent upon what lines the young lady has followed with the greatest Interest at college. In winter and lu the city the tutoress prefers to have ber clientele and go from bouse to bouse, giving hours or half hours of Instruction, us do the music teachers. When the parents, as is usually the case iu summer, want u resident tutoress for the chlldivu It would blanch with horror the chock of the old-style story book governess to hear tbe bold style In which tbe College bred tutoress speaks up for her rights. She is, us a rule, willing to take the children for instruction just so many hours every day; hei own hours of privacy and recreation must bo re spected, and her salary is Just about-i four times as big as that paid In tbe lays of June Eyre and her sister helots. Not often do the parents offer any Rprlous objections or haggle over terms, and they respect tho simply dressed, dignified, clever young wom en who know their value and their business. A wise parent sets a-deal of Rtqre by the moral and mental In fluence this type of instructress exerts on the children, and this year a new requirement has crept Into the terms on which a private Instructress Is en gaged. This is athletics. The tutoress who can play golf, swim, row, ride, drive, has a line wrist for tennis, a good hand ou the tiller, and Is not ufrald of en automobile, can get double the price given br sister who Is all Intellectual fire, but lacks In muscle. Not only does this muscular tutor get a higher price for her time and tal ents, but, us one young womun who hml a good post last summer found out, she secures by her skill and brawn the particular respect of her boy scholars, and enjoys a delightful social value, which, without ber physi cal grace and outdoor accomplish ments, would never have fallen to her sua ro. Washington Star. Ralffiilng- Fancy or the Hour. Tailor made suits with coquettish adjuncts are the reigning fancy of the hour. They are trimmed for the most part with stitched bands of some light color, the material being either cloth, silk or linen. Mohair comes In for Its sharo of attention, and of the usual trimming for such a gown is ecru ba tiste perforated and embroidered. For example, a costume woru recently by one of the season's brides was n navy blue mohair made with both blouse and skirt laid in box plea la. Those on the skirt end below the trimming In the shape of a deep-fitted flounce. The trluimlug which formed the short bol ero Jacket on the bodice, with sides that descended the skirt and encircled It In a wide band, was of ecru bastiae perforated and embroidered with white cord. A charming model of light weight black .loth has a skirt cut with a deep shaped flou nee. nn wtil.-h Is mounted n serpentine trimming of wuuu taueia, elaborately stitched and perforated. Gold thread being used to fill In the perforations. The same trimming appears ou the sides of the Jacket, which are cut to fall below the waist line. The collar Is of heavy cream lace.

Certaia rumors as to tilings fashion able may be said to recur In cycles. The disappearance of the blouse, tho revival of the crinoline, the restora tion of the patch and tbe coming of powdered hair are all predicted at in terval, but fulfilment of the prophecy tarries. Just now the walking stick la enjoying attention, and we are be ing gravely informed In various di rections that "smart people" are car-ry-g them, and that they are the lat est mode. But Inquiries and observa tion do not support the present gosalp any more than on past occasions when similar reports have been started. One good and sufficient reason against any general adoption of them at present is that with long skirts snd no pock eta overburdened womankind cannot undertsks to carry anything fur ther than she is now compelled to bear.

An Inves tigation, too, of sundry famous shops devoted to sticks and umbrellas does not reveal anything specially prepared for feminine demands.

Beginning with the resur rection we have studied all the recorded appearance of Christ both before and af ter Hi areninn. Following the ascension the Holy Spirit wa given, and then we were encouraged with the fart that Chriat ia still our High 1 rieat in heaven. The "studies in the life of .Jeaua" which have continued for eighteen month are now cloned for the present, and we are to turn our attention to truth in other part of the acred Scripture. Lesson I. Topic: The risen Christ. Place: At and near Calvary. Christ wa crucified on Friday, April 7; rose early Sunday morning, April 9; several women were earJy at the tomb; the stone wa rolled away; the women entered the sep ulchre; C'hiitt wa not there; two angels a-wearcd in t!e form of men; their faces were like lightning and their garments were dazgling: the women were afraid; the angels told them Chriat had risen; the go to tell the disciples, who cannot be lieve; I'eter and John run to the tomb. 2. Topic: Jesus making Himself known. Plnce: Near the sopulchre. Mary Magda lene returned and stood near the tomb weeping; she looked into the sepulchre; law two angels in white; they asked her why she wept; she replied that they had taken away her Lord, and she did not know where thev had laid Him; turning she saw Jenus, but supposed Him to be the fardener; He spoke her name: she knew lim; He sent her to tell the disciples He had risen. 3. Topic: Chriat the fulfilment of nro pheoy. Place: Emmaus and Jerusalem, i'wo disciples journey to Emmaus, a vil lage seven and one-half miles northwest of Jerusalem. They talk, together and are aad; Jesm draw near; they do not know Him; He questions them: they relate what had recently occurred; Jesus explains the Scriptures; they arrive at Ktnmaus; Jesu is urged to abide with them; makes Him self known; vanishes out of their sight; they return to Jerusalem. 4. Topic: Jesus convincing the apostles of His resurrection. Place: Jerusalem. It is the evening of the resurrection Sunday; the disciples assembled ; Thomas absent; icsus enters; shows His hands and feet; blesses them; gives them authority over sin; Thomas would not believe; one week later Jesus appears again; Thomas pres ent; sees Christ and is convinced that He has really arisen; Jesus pronounces a blessing on those who believe though they have not seen. 5. Topic: Peter's love for Christ. Place: The sea of Galilee. The disciples in Gali lee; Peter and six others go a fishing; toil all night and catch nothing; Jesus ap pear on the shore; tells them to cast the net on the right aide of the ship; it is tilled with tish; they know Him; after they dine Jesus asks Simon a question: "Lov est thou Me more than these?" Peter re plies, "Thou knowest that 1 love Thee?" i'hia is repeated three times; Peter told to feed and care for the sneep. 6. Topic: Christ commissioning His apostles. Place: A mountain in Galilee. An appointment has been made by Jesus to meet the disciples in Galilee. The apos tles and many disciples arc present. Jesus appears before them; they worship Him; some doubted; .Ictus tells them nf His power: commissions them to go, to teach all nations and to baptize; promises to be with them ahvay. 7. Topic: Christ's parting words. Place: Mount Olivet. Jesus open their under standing; shows from the Scriptures that Ciirutt must have suffered and have risen from the dead; speaks of the great salva tion that is provided for all nations; leads the disciples out to Bethany; they ask Him to restore the kingdom to Israel; He promises the Holy Spirit to them; they are to tarry in Jerusalem; while they behold He is parted from them; He will come attain. 8. Topic: The pcntecostal baptism. Place: Jerusalem. At the feast of the Pentecost, fifty days from the Passover; the disciples assembled in an upper room; with one accord; suddenly a sound from heaven; "tongues like as of fire" sat upon them; they were tilled with the Holy Ghost; spake with other tongues; the mul titude heard the sound and came together; were coufounded and marveled because every man heard them speak the wonder ful works of God in His own language. 9. Topic: The excellency of Christ's priesthood. The Mosaic tabernacle was a type of the good things to come. The Iiikh priest was a type of Christ, who is our great High Priest in heaven. He ia now at the right hand of God the Father, making intercession for us. The ofleriugs were a type of Christ; He was infinitely more precious than the Mosaic offerings. Christ gave Himself a samlice for sin, once for all. 10. Topic: Saul's conversion. Place: Jerusalem. Paul ia in the temple with those who are observing the forma of the Nazarite vow; his enemies charge him with polluting the temple; they drag him out; he ia rescued by the Human guard; is permitted to apeak for himself; speaks of his life before hia conversion; tells of his conversion; how the Lord appeared to him, near Dnmascus, at noon; how Ana nias ca- i to him, and instructed and bap tized him. 11. Topic: The glorified Saviour. Place: Tbe Isle of Patmos. John tbe apostle ia banished to Patmos for his testimony for Christ. He was in the Spirit on the Lord's day; hears a voice behind him; turns and see seven golden candlesticks, and in the midst one liko the Son of man. Jesus is clothed like a priest; His hair was like wool, eyes like tire, feet like burnished brass, voie like the sound of many waters, countenance like the sun; John fell as dead. 12. Tonic: The happy state cf tbe right eous. Place: Patmoa. John saw a now heaven, a new earth, and the new Jerusa lem coining down from God out of heaven. All tears, pain and death are passed away. Tne one who overcometh shall inherit all things; there if no temple; no need of the uu or moon; i .e Lamb is the light there of. The gates are never shut: there is no night there; nothing enter that defileth; those enter whose name are in the book of life. John, by meuns of strong figura tive language, undertakes to give us an idea of the glory that awaits v.he finally faithful. But the most profound knowl edge and the strongest imagination can eai ry it possessor only a short distance ia fathoming these heavenly mysteries. PROMINENT PEOPLE.

We arc not nskea to believe something about rhrisf, though that Is Involved, but rather to become allied to Christ. The true tllselple Is not be who accepts I'lirUt Inn doctrine, but he who bus accept el,.li'sits Christ its his Master and friend. 'I he chief work of Jesus seemed to lie to win a few men and women to himself a company which would, tinder all clrcumsi uncos, tie loyal lo hltn because tuey believed In him nnd loved blm with all their hearts. What he sought when he was upon earth the Lord seeks tu-day. He is looking for men . nuu women mm young people who follow hltn bocawsi; they regard hint above nil oilier. He usks that these shall believe mo truth about blm that Is necessary. Met the prime reiiilslto Is loyalty to his person. Loyalty lo Christ the Keynote of Christianity. It would be iitorostlug to study the gospels and llm epistles to see how many times the phrase "for Jesus sake" Is used. Our Lord himself often referred to this motive when talking to Ills closest ulsclplen. And in his Inst Interview with tlieni lie! ore his crucifixion, wuile pi. the memorial cup mm tin' memorial bread, he said. "I)o this In remem brance of tin'." Paul uses (lie term "for .lesus' sake" or its oitlsMlont In most of his letters. Itotli I'eter und John refer to the same motive as the controlling one In their own lives, as it should lie In the lives of all the dis ciples of Christ. What Loyalty to Christ luvolves. -"1 have chosen you," wu,l Christ, 1 whic h he ini'ii ns that his choice of the disciples preceded and funda mental to their choice of him. 'there can be no real loyalty Id I lirist with out a clear conviction of his choice of lis. This must lie detiuito and clear. Christ's call must lie responded to fully and completely. Along with Hie call must go a deteruiinai ion lo do all that Christ cotuiuaiiils. "Ye are my friends." says Christ, "if ye do whatsoever I command you." , We must do nil riling iu his name. And, last of all, we mdst abide iu him. This Is the very essence of loyalty to Christ. Yve cannot follow him, or obey him. or bring forth the fruits nf it Christian life, unless we abide in him. How all of these act ami react upon one another are Illustrated iu the lives of the disciples. They followed Christ, they sought to do bis will, and they came to abide 111 him. The more they sought to abide In him the easier they found the following of him and obe dience to him. As they progressed In this life of obedience and faith their love increased.

"I beseech you, therefore, brethren, by I he mer cies of God." When we call lo re membrance all the undeserved mercies of God to us, how can we refuse a complete and willing service "What ever he would like to1 have us do."' We are members of the Christian Endeavor Society by the will of God; it Is also his will that ive-s-erve blm here actively, as individuals aud ns members et committees. If we fail to do wuat he would like to huve us do in our society work, we displease God, and are not faithful to this trust which lie has committed to us. bKLKOTIONS. The root of all our uood deeds must lie in the profound realization that we are "children of God by faith In Jesus Christ," and from that source service cannot but burst forth in bless ing. Where God .wants ills children to go, what God wants his children to do, If we have fully gnisixd this truth. If we actually believe It, there will be our place and work. I care not where It Is, wherever God In his providence hns put you to do your work as a imiu among men, as a woman among women, there, however lowly the lot, iiowever hum ble the task, there is the place lo ex hibit your divine courage and pa tience and faitu and zeal aud hope. nAMS'HOaN 3LAS.S I arc but porveisions 't our blejiiagj.
