Tulle and net hats are extremely po- pular at the moment, and 'will be in fashion it may be safely predicted, for a long: time. Both liet and tulle Are so becouttng, and -whether tits eutire hat is made of either or they aro used mere- ly as trimming the effect is much the same. For the new toques or turbans either tulle or the fittest figured uet which eonsists of the full bows and is extremely smart and there aro two or three models the only trimming of loops et the side, while others are trim, sned with many sprays of aigrettes; there lest are extremel yexpeneeve, and the same 'effect or a dose imitation is to be notieed in the stiff bows of Pettey straw braid is combined with net And tulle very eatisfactortly, mid then the trinataisg is of either aigrettes and bowls or merely of the stiff, high bows placed at juet the angle to be most bce coming both to the: side and the full face.

The lines of these simple hats have been most care- fully studied, aud while the pric,ea asked plain effects it is quite apparent to the •women a good tote that they are worth paying. In direct coetrast to these rather low, flat effects are the high crowned, narrow brimmed &tapes with high trimming at the side, , and which require to be most carefully perched upon the head and at jute the right angle. The three cornered shape is to hard. in outline to be universally becoming, and although it has appeared among the new styles and is sato: in straw than in velvet, silk, satin or beav- er it is not to be counted on as likely to been fashion for any length of time.

SPRING HINTS OF NEW FAS H 1 ONS Among the new hints I have managed to glean, writes the Paris eorreepondent of London Queen, the fact that alt the new coats are abort and sometimes very fantastic, the skirts, too, are still short for day wear and for eveniug wear, too, but as an antidote to such practncal no- tions one big house is making its even- ing cloaks with tourt trains, an eccen- trieite: which nuty or may not take the capriemils taste of the very mendable Parisienne. The newest skirt shows gathers from the waist belt to below the knees, where it in eaught into a drapery verylike the fishwife scarf of last summer. The Japanese sleeve is alsoto be used in emits once more, showing an under- eleeve from below the elbow. The Russian hiouoe, with variations upon it, is also to the fore, one of the niost oviginal being somethieg very like the curious atraight garment worn by many Orientals. For trimming, these quaint. garments Eastern .ernhi-oideries are used quite lavishly on the shoulders down the front, an the sierevea .ttnd to form the vais.e belt. The favorite waist belt for ordinary cloth costumee is, however, in shiny black leather, and sortie of the neatest little gowns tviil he turned out in blue cloth or serge, black soutache buttons to fatten down the side, and a neat, namw leather belt to indicate the waist line, Arother form of Russion blouse is the orte with quite full Tibet's both Above and below the weld on either side, thus giving Whims to the lmeques and to the buet. 'Needless to my, anal' a 'Mahlon may be worn only on a slim figure, I can say nothing so far as regards ma- terials, but 1 hope next week to have formed some ideo, of what kinds Will be Itiost in favor for spring wear.

The circumstances are more fully related in ll'ark aud Luke. J'estua was speaking to a crowd of pimple who had petered to Hint. There were Pharisees and doctors of the law present from Gel - ilea mid jaclea ae far as Seruealem.

Seribes--The)r had charge of the books of the law, and -were the teachers at leaders of the map. They had been listening to the discourse of Jesus.

The seribe.s declared that Jesus, in forgiving&no, had assumed a prerogative belonging to God alone, and that he was a blasphemer in thus pro- fessing to be divine. It is true that God alone -can forgive sios, and Jesus in do- ing this openly declared his divinity. 4.
