A round jet buckle on the front of the waist and another larg- er buckle on the skirt holding together the sides of the tunic give a smart and original toueh that adds greatly to the appearance of the gown. Tussor and Rajah Costumes. M the season advances tumor, pon. gee, rajah and suelt materials are in constaut demand. Timor and rajah are both quite heavy materials, but are re. legated to Bummer wear. They are not euitable for evening gowns of the elabor- ate order, but are charming for the afternoon and for the simplest theatre gowns. For reception or garden party they are very smart, . An attractive gown of this description is of pale gray tussor, so fashioned that it ean be worn in the street or house. It has long lines, but there is the overskirt, a double: skirt style, and the underskirt can be of the same material or of satin. The waist, in jacket effect, is finished with a wide lace collah, revere ana jab- ots. The waist line is •plased high and a satin belt and rosette show under the line of the jacket. Wide kimono sleeves with turned hack cuffs of lace or em- broidery and under sleeves with lace ruffles are graceful and becoming to a slight figure, but cannot be recommend - ea for a Woman at all large. Every color possible and many that re quite impos- sible are fashionable in tussor this sea- son for the one piece gown and for the gown with jacket or coat to match. There are exquisite shades of cerise, green and. blue, while pale gray and pale straw yellow are very smart. Heavy silk embroidery bands of lace and sou - Who binding and narrow pipings of silk or satin are each a,nd alt fashion- able trimmings. The embroidered voile de sole is an exquisite fabric, and at the same time it is a durable one. Almost if not quite as transparent as chiffon, it is stronger and rather heavier. Embroid- ery in simple and elaborate designs shows off well on it, and. the combining of many colors: work e out well. The heavy silk embroidery and. the paillettes and beads are all effective on it, especi- ally if made up over satin or satin fin- ish silk. A. smart model that has pee - ed popular is in a pale gray voile over •satin of the same shade. On the voile are open discs worked in heavy blue silk. -Lace around the bottom of the tulle and trimming the waist adds an- other effective touch -the late of a heavy description, like Cluny or guipure, if any open pattern. Blue and gray, while a fethionable combination, is not ative.yit becoming, and care must be taken to select such shades as Will look well together and not be too trying to the wearer. Solid color, without embroidery are most attractive in voile de soie, and the bands of lace • or embroidery on the fringe that is so fashionable seem only to show off more dearly the beauty of the material and. the color. Smart Theatre Gown. An apparently simple and very smart model for a pink theater gown has been much admired and copied. It is one of the high -waisted styles, and. the material falls in long lines, the upper skirt tnishea with silk tasselled fringe. The waist is so trimmed that zome- thing of a bolero jacket effect is sug- gested. A narrow folki of black velvet outlines the waist line, and at the left side there are either long ends of black velvet tibbons that fall to the ham of the skirt or, there is a flea panel of velvet on the under skirt and the voile de sole overdress -is slashed to sbow • this panel from waist to hem. Irt the original design the trouser skirt of black satin was included, but the modification of the fashion, ' the panel of blaek satin, was a marked im- provement. Black voile de soie over white satin is one of the season's fasb. ions that have met with greet snecess. A charming model of this is a gown of white satin with hole of Meek. its influence, on ones deast of fqod. tem table etitptette.

The quality of.food and the man- ner of eating are the Importantthings. - There is more in alanch boa than the. food it carries, and the patient mother or slitter who thinks ahead and pinus for the lunch and thinks of the daintiest ways of packing it, deservesmore thanks than be will ever receives,. and is taking no entail part in the clieriteter building of her Wetly. An unfailiug rule :should he that the one who ia to eat the lunch should, not pack it. The appetite at noon and in tile morning are two different things, and besides, there should be an element of earprise as to what one is to have. Wholesomenees, simplicity -and dainti- ness should characterize the lunch:A. box that can be di:max:led is a good idee, but it is also good to have one that is just right for size, light, and waterproof, especially for children. One should keep on liend a supply of paper napkins, wax - ad atid parchment paper, and. fresh wrap- ping paper and strong twine. Plain paper napkins are a wise inveetment and are not dear when purchased by the 100. There is no objection to baying both wreaping papers and twine of a pleasing color. If everything is wrapped separately in waxed paper there will' be no mixing of flavors, and the daintiness will cotter a weak appetite.. Thia does away with the neceesity of carrying the box "right side up, supposing, of course, that there are no cupsor glasses holding liquidee-end it is better to eliminate those 11 possible; if they must be used, try to have screw tope.

Insteadof rich aud fancy macs, put sweet (mockers or :Ltome made cookies, tucking in a few extra ones "to divide!' Two or three pikes of home made candy and a. few nutoneats can go in some other day, and even a lump of leaf 'sugar. The things named are quite sufficient for a lunch with plenty of good. home made bread, cut thin, and .spreeel with good butter and anything else desired, such as jelly, minced meat, or chee.se. Thin dices Of broiled steak, seasoned nicely, are quite as good, if not bkpt., than roast beef for eandwiches. Crisp sweet bacon, thin, is also excellent, and is one of the most Valuable foods.

Many of the -fashions this season are aggravatingly misleading to the aver- age women with some talent for dress- making. Their apparent simplicity and the small amount of material that is neeessary often prove a snare and a delusion, for to attain the desired re- sults more than talent is required, and only an artist in her trade could carry out many of the neweet styles. In short, olothes must be carefully thought out end planned this season unless money is no object and failures can be thrown aside. „An instance of this ap- parent simplicity is seen in e crepe de Chine and net gown of the alest yel- low, with pipings of silk or satin on the net. The high waisted skirt, the straiglit lines and even the piping or cording in the net all 'seem quite pos- sible even for amateur dressmaking; but, alas! any 'fault of tut or fit or draping will show, and a much more ela- borate style of gown would. turn out far better. The model well carried out is exceedingly smart and becoming and makes a most useful gown. The satin girdle ean be the same color or a much darker shade. This is a season when contrasts of oal, kinds are popular, and the woman who can buy as she wishes finds it delightful to combine in her turnmer outfit the simple and the elaborate.For theatre and restaurant gowns there are so many on the elaborate order that it ie not an easy task to make the choice. 'The silk embroidered tunics are so effective, so beautiful in color and design that their popularity is readily understood. Embroidered Tunic Gowns. These tunics in the semi -made pat- terns are by no means so expensive as to be prohibitory and can be put over a silk or satin gown that has already done duty at many e smart function.

The people in assemb- ling to observe the Passover had plac- ed themselves under Inc Most gracious Influences, and their hearts were being saviugly affected. They made their con- fession directly to Jehovah. 23. To keep other seven days -The service of the Lord at His temple be- came a delight to this great body of worshippers. Allthough the legal ex- tent of the lease was seven days, yet because of the fact that this service had been neglected many years, and be- cause they found a rich bleseing in WA observance, they desired to prolong the period of worship. 24.

To such a sudden and complete change of the policy ou the throne Nye must rectepliee a dispensation of divine providence. Hezeklah was for Judah a gift of the Lord. Great as WAS the peril to whiclt the kingdom was exposed from external attack, great as was its moral unsoundness', Ilezekiali saw that all ite trouble ',aa rooted he tingodlinees. Re believed it useless trying to mend a oe- dema fortunes without that mending ite morals and religion. His way a uplift- ing the masses was by uplifting the lead- ers of the masses. He regarded delay 1140 dangerous. There are some things which ire best done quickly, both in individual and national life. "He in the first year ef Ida reign, in the first month, opened the doom of the house of the Lord, and repaired them" (II. Citron, axle. 3). Elezekitth was not of the opinion that Cod puts men into office to be idle and enjoy the dignity of their position, but to serve Him. He therefore acted promptly and himself engaged in tbe work. His reform was positive in its nature and thorough -going, • To carry out such. a reformation uuder the most unfavorable circumstances called for courageous faith and extregrairetry en- ergy. Hezekiali began with God and waa prospered accordingly. II. Conducted on scriptural !mamas. "They established a decree .... to keep the passover . at Jerusalem." iteae- kialt believed that sinners have ahetusen of the mind mid the inner door of the soul are both tlirovzn open to the Lord, The great mercy of God was the ground- work of Hezekiah's argument by which he enforced repentance on the alma' consciences. God was near this young king in the corrupt capital of Judah and enabled him to direct faithfully the pe0- p10 as they presented themselves at th,e Passover. Before they kept the feast "they arose and took away the altars." True revivals of religion have ever flourished in proportion to the measure in which faithful scriptural preaching has abounded. afereltiah was anxious not only, to root up, destroy and deny, but also to set up in the place of what was evil that which was eight and good. While he believed that preparation of heart eves of the greatest necessity in the worship of God, and. the every de. feet needs cleansing and should be a matter of humiliation, though pot a dis- couragement, he believed favorable op- portunities to fix conviction upon the in- dividual should be improved even though irregularities had to be admitted to do so. The greater includes the. less. God gave peace to their consciences and heal- ing to their souls, for they made penitent confession of their sins and infirmtties, a thankful eonfession of Godes mercies to them and a humble confession bf their needs. HI. Reestablished true standards of piety. ale,zekiali succeeded in uprooting ancient abuses because he was moved not merely by political or human consid- erations, but by sincere lova to the Lord and zealfor his honor. He rteurned to the original ordinances of the Mosaic law, which prescribed not only one cen- tral sanctuary, but also one central phtee of worship. He was thus the re- storer of that central worship which was so important and indispensable for the unity of the people and kingdom. -T. R. A. TORONTO MARKETS. 1'AR11141113* MARKET.
