rhe Dainty Muslins and Fluttering
Ribbons Announce the Summer Girl.
Muslins and ribbons begin to loom
with their usual midsummer importance.
After the nauslins are decided upon
comes the choice of the ribbons, as every
woman knows the new dotted and em-
broidered muslins are very charming.
The tiniest of scattered posies adorn
some of the Swiss muslins with good ef-
feet, oa some of the pretiest muslins
allow dots of white on the white ground
of the material, and at intervals prim
little floral sprig/ are artistically intro-
aucea.
A Festoon Border.
One embroidered Swiss Muslin for sum-
mer frocks has a festoon border of small
blossoms caught with little printed bow -

The Ribbon Sunshade.
What quantities of ribbon are being
used thisseason, not only as a trimming
for hats and toques, but for dresses ,as
well1 The graceful sash drapery is again
in favor, and a prettily -swathed sash,
with long, knotted ends of the same ma-
terialas the broad band of silk or satin
which borders the skirt, is often to be
seen, The ribbop ornamented sunshade
makes a further demand on the ribbon
snanufacturer. A ribbon rosette or bow
is no new thing in sunshade decorations,
but we are now introduced to the stick
and handle closely- bound with inclowide
ribbon and ornamented with a. flower
rosette made of loops of the ribbon.

DAY OF THE TUCK.
...,••••••••••••
Seen in Every Size and on Every
Garment,
Tucks are highly in favor, from their
broadest, including pleats, to their fin-
est -the pin or hair tucks of long mem-
o/7.
Fine underclothing has always rejoiced
in quantities of diese wonderful little
tucks, which, on the better qualities, are
made by hand, although it seems impos-
sible that anything so large as human
fingers should make anything so small
as these tucks.
As a trimming to outer garments they
afford quite the best method of orna-
menting a blouse -which is intended to be
for morning wear. They take away from
its plainnese without making it elabor-
ate. Not that they are confined to
blouses -indeed, tucks trim every sort
of garment from the plainest to the rich

VEILINGS.
The New WidesMeshed Effects and
Some Others.
It is a long while since the ebange of
fashion in veilings has been so complete.
tattil the; season, indeed, fitsliion in veil-
ings came and went, but certain stand
ard lines, fine Russian iit and medium
nwshed vaings, whit 'large or sma3
.ehenille spots, were in perpetual demand,
and novelties in veilings only appealed
to the comparatively few.
Women are spending 'awe money on
their veilings this season, espeeially for
the new wide -meshed veilings, whether
plain or patterned. Even the simplest of
the new veiling.; costs two or three times
the price per yard of the olcafaehioned

tive in Smart Effects,
For the woman who favors a small hat
the tulle toque is just the thing. It is
it modified form of the big swathed
"extinguisher" hape which we have in
the winter, but in place of velvet and
silk, we -have the lighted and. faintest
of soft satin, and firtiehed with a elus-
ter of flat roses at th(3 side or baek.
The tulle is writhed With a fairy
lightuess, and in the pale mole shades
and dainty grays has a very cloudy el -

should be earrkd out in it darker shade
than the tulle. Those toques are not as
easy to make as one would suppose at
first sight, and unless one is unusually
skillful and dandy fingers it is wisest
not to attempt ono at home. They also
have to be made on a foundation of al-
most wire and fine net.
The blendinjt of two colors in it toque
of this kind looks particularly well, pro-
viding the right colors are chosen. Mauve
and pink, with a cluster of mauve bera-
te/as; grey and pale blue, with forget-
tne-nots; two shades of leaf green, with
moss rosbuds-any of these would be
delightful,

HANDKERCHIEF NEWNESS.
Exquisite Embroideries Are Seen on
the Fine Novelties,
For a long time plain hemstitched
handkerchiefs for women havbeen the
vogue. Of course the colored French
ones and some fancy ones have been car-
ried, but the general trend was toward,
absolute simplic14.
Now comes it revival of the embroider-
ed 'kerchief -not elaborate affairs, with
too much ornamentation, but fine, suowy
linen squaaas, with the daintiest of em-
broidered patterns. "The embroidery of-
ten follows the line of the hem, and the
little flowers and wee leaves trail along
the edges in regular rows.
Sometimes there is an inch or two of
plain material above the hem, and the
whole centre of the handkerchief is cov-
ered with little blossoms or dots skil-
fully embroidered.
These new handkerchiefs are inexpress-
ibly dainty, for the designs are usuelly
small and rather artistic. They are al-
ways in snowy white and always in good
taste.
BUMMER HANDBAGS.
We lave frocks and hats to match the
weather and the seasons, why not ac-
cessories as well? Indeed, one of the
smart shops is showing handbags of sum-
mery -looking oretonnne.
Who has not longed for an appropri-
ate handbag to wear with their fluffy
frocks? A leather bag seems so heave
and out of place, and not every woman
possesses. one of silver or gold.
These cretonne bags seem to fill the
need very well, for,
though inexpensive,
they are dainty and artistic. There are
several styles, not only of bags, but, of
course, of cretonnes as well. There is the
familiar bag with the clasp top, and
then another model which has a flap,
folding over and fastening down like an
envelope.
Thick white corda, usually two in num.
ber, make very suitable handles for
these fabric bags, As to the cretonnes,
there are, naturally, many colors and
combinations. Gay roses and other posies
float over white ground; richly colored
blooms are scattered over tan and cream
grounds, andmatehing one's belongings
will be an easy matter.

PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS.
A Woman's Faith.
She heard of Jesus. "A woman of
Cenctan came" (V. 22). "Faith cometh
by hearing" (Rem. 10:17); by "looking
unto, Segue" (HO. 12:2), who is "Lord
of lords and King of kings" (Rev. 17:
14). Looking to Jesus Peter had faith
to walk on the sea; the moment he
"saw the wind boisterous" he began to
sink (Matt. 14:28-82). A lady said to
Mrs. Boardman, "Lack of faith is my
great difficulty." Mrs. 13oeadman ask-
ed, "If you wished to confide in a wo-
man would you look into your heart to
see if you could trust her?" "No, I
should look at her capacity and charm -
She besought for another, "Cried
unto Him" (v. 22). A. Congregational
missionary was distributing rice to the
poor of Japan. A mother Wha had a
hmatio daughter came for food, The
missionary went to the dark, miserable
room t'here the mother, two sons ane
mad daughter lived. The girl was con-
fined in a cage with wooden bars. Her
face was sweet and pathetic even in its
wildness. She went from side to side,
or tried to climb the bate liko a, wild
animal. The missionary's heart ached
tor the poor, eagest child,' but there were
no asylums for the insane poor in Japan.
There was but one thing to do: let the
strong faith and tender love of Christ
web up in her heart. And the girl
eaught the glow of it. She looked at her
wonderingly, inquiringly; let her stroke
her arm and speak soothingly. Then th
wild look carne back. The missionary
and. her assistant read to the mother of
the liealing of the daughter of this wo-
man of Canaan, and told her God would
hear them for her daughter, and knelt
and prayed, and sang' 'Jesus, Lover of
My Soul." The madgirl grow quiet.
The next 'day the mother came and told
tlie missionary the daughter had slept
nearly all night. Tho week following the
glri asked to knit and wished the "Jams
people" would come again, They went.
The eons got work and the mother came
for rice no more. Some time after ward
eame to the missionary, "The crazy
girl is well; God healed her. .It began
With the prayer and song', Then the
missionary went again and saw it young
girl sitting by the door in perfect health,
with a happy face, and never dreamed it
was the ones crazed lunatie whom her
faith and love had brought to Jeetts.
But it was even so.
She was tested.' "It is nob meet to
teke the eltildeen's bread, and to east it
to dogs" (v. 26). Spurgeon says, "We
have no more faith at any time than we
have in the hour of trial. All that will

man ever had faith and was without

faith is tried in believing the promise,
in waiting for the fulfilment, in holding

THE NEW GOV.
Earl of Crewe Probably Next Gover-
nor-General of Canada.
Ottawa, 'June 0, -In spite of the sug-
gestion that Earl Grey be reappointed
for another term as Governor-General,
it is generally believed here that the
next Governor-General will be theIsar
of Crewe. As a matter of tact, it le said
that the British Government has been
advised that Crewe would be acceptable
to the Canadian Government He is a
member of the Asquith Ministry.
The rumor that there is strong proba-
bility that the terra of Earl Grey may
be extended for another twelve months,
and that the hurried trip of his excel-
lency to England is at the request of
the Colonial Office in order that they
may discuss the matter with 'him is pro-
bably mere guess work.

COMM
Wallaceburg Board of Trade and
the Finding of His Bones.
Interesting Story of the Lonely Grave
on St. Anne's Island,
Chatham, June 0„-Indigant at being
accused of having desecrated the grave
of Tecuniseb, citizens of Wallaceburg,
to whose efforts wasdue the finding
on St, Anne's Wand of what are be -
limit to be the remains of the ,greaa
Indian thief, are preparing a vigorous
reply to the chargee made against them.
This reply, giving all the eircumetaneen
leading be pbish
inguputoithede T
remhoedvaleofLeih
the obontese,
citizens will be out in an official letter
from the Wallaceburg Board of Trade,
signed by Mr, T. B. Dundee, president,
and by the secretary. The remains are
-now in possession of the chief of WO -
The netting of the body was a dna-
iamb° 'incident, and proven the truth
of the old rumor that has been going
around for yeaes. The story is that
Tecumseh, after his death at Moravian -
town, was buried near the field of bat-
tle. Years went by and the country
gradually became settled. Living on St.
Anne's Island at that time was an In-
dian whose erect, soldierly form was a
familiar sight forty years, ago, This
Indian died at ninety years of age, and
old people tell of how he used to talk
of having fought with Tecumseh through
the war of 1812. Through it rnan named
Fisher, whose uncle was intimate with
the old Indian, came the elue to the find-
ing of the bones, This clue came in a
story that Fisher said had come from
the Indian through his unele, The tale,
a weird one, is that, as the settlers be-
gun to clear the land around Moravian -
town, the old Indian, who was OM of the
few surviving braves who helped to bury
the chief, began to fear that the remains
would be disturbed. By night he went
to the spot, dug up the bones, and,
placing them in a box, carried them to
St. Anne's Island. The story, as it came
from Mr. Fisher, was that the old In'
dian, in dying, had directed that his
body be buried beside his dead leader'*
bones, and that if a search was made
their bone would be found. Recently
prominent citizens of Wallaceburg decid-
ed to go to St. Anne's Islandto test
the truth of the story.
Guided by an. Indian, who was induc-
ed to show the spot where the bones
were supposed to lie, the party set out
Thursday afternoon, The island is a
low, swampy stretch of laud, at present
uninhabited. end is separated from Wal-
pole Island by it narrow channel. It was
raining when the party got to the island.
With a circle of Indians and white men
watching with obsorbed interest, the
man with the spade began to dig at the
spot indicated. At first the spademan
dug beside the old Indian's mound, but
although he got down some distance,
nothing was found, and the party began
Lo get discouraged. Then someone sug-
gested digging at the head of the grave,
and almost the first stroke of the spade
revealed the presence of bones. In the
half century the box had been below
grounds it had become part of the soil,
but rotten fragments remained to indi-
cate the shape of the box. The bones
were those of a large Indian, and in a
fair state of preservation, although it
few smaller bones were lost, perhaps
by the old Indian in removing the re-
mains from their first burying place.
With the gruesome relics *uncovered, the
committee were in a quandry as to what
to do with them. The Indians were con-
sulted, and, withdrawing some distance,
they debated mono themselves. Finally
the chief came bal and signified their
willingness to have Dr. Mitchell take
care of the bones, declaring if they were
left on the island they might be stolen.
The remains were accordingly carefully
wrapped in it flag and brouglit to Wal-
laceburg.
Thos, Seneca, a well-educated Chip-
pewa Indian, does not believe the bones
are those of Tecumseh, but of a Chip-
pewa chief.
Tn connection with statements made
that the Attorney -General was to be ap-
pealed to, Hon. J. .T. Vey said Inet
night that the matter had not been
brought to his attention at all.
BRADSTREETS' TRADE REVIEW.
Montreal reports to Bradstreet'e say
while the tone of trade here aud in the
surrounding aistrict is steady, the con-
tinued wet and cool weather is by lig
means helping the movement of spring
and summer lines, and retail trads in
this connection is inclined to be light.
Pasturage has been brought on in splen-
did style but warmer and dryer weather
is now needed for the t'(mowing crops.
and C.T.R. statements show
steadily increasing earnings, due to the
heavy movement of ,.,erneral goods.
Toronto reports to Bradstteet's say
the getteral situation is pretty well un-
changed. Dry goods retailers aro long-
ing for hot weather, although there
has been it good, movement of clothing
and general spring goods, 3.:fillinery
sales have also been satisfactory, 'Values
in most lines are generally steady.
Winnipeg reports say a satisfactory
tone is noted to all lines of trade there,
Early erop reports are eneouraging.
Vancouver and Victoria reports say
all lines of trade there continue brisk.
Quebec. -Reports te Bradstreet's are
much libout the same as the preceding
week,
Hainitton reports sty a fairly steady
trade is reported in all lines there. Cost
iveather continues to stet against a large
volume of business in seasonable goone,
but the demand for hardware and groc-
ieries is fair to good.' Receipts of pro-
duce are. large. Loeal factories continue
busy. Collections fair to good.
Loinlon reports say business there eon.
Unites on the quiet side and not much
improvement can be looked. for until the
weather turns warmer.
Ottawa reports any business is steady
