most serviceable. Soft satins and taf-

braid is to be as useful and °rumen-

riga, while fringe, velvet, rushes, plait-

more elaborate garments, with chiffon
and lace serving on yet greater elabora-

rather to cover up all traces of work
and have the garments offering the.mak-

two yards in Paris,- and a quarter of a
yard more here, Some alarmists insist
upon predicting lowered wasp waists,

This dos not mean that women of dis-

raised waist line which distingmelies

ing of the hat.
Pose of the Chapeau.
The pose of the hat is distinctly dif-
ferent from what it was even a few
month e ago, for then one could wear it
down on one's shoulders if one would,
but now all smart people are lifting it
well behind, so as to leave the neck un-
covered. Every hat, largeor small, is
raised a bit' behind and a little to the
left Side, thus giving a line which is be-
coming to most foes. The .width of
brim on the large hats increases at the
side and lessens over the brow, and at
the back of the head, and one of the
most popular shapes is that width rolls
book from the brow and turns up be-
hind. The toques also show turned -up
brims behind, and variations on the Na-
poleonic het are still in vogue. The
trimmings on toques invariably bave

now trimmed in every possible way -at
the side, all over the crown, from the
front, and also from the back.

fashionable than the ever popular Hest'

frocks in which this last mentioned lace

this general teutiency, there are many
new effects, variations of both tho id -

Paquin is showing a great Many flow-

upper part of the sleeve is continuous
with the body of the garment, while the
lower part has the extension draped in

form of sleeve. All these ideas are ab-
solutely new; it remains yet for their
populerity to be -proven. Many of the
new coats show a continuation of the

motor coats and mantles developed in
double-faced. materials.

Throughout the summer slightly shorter

Topic -Closing scenes in Judah,
I, Directly atcorded with prophecy,
IL Completed the nation's rebellion.
II. Revealed God's guiding hand,
I. Directly accorded with prophecy.
The events which make up the history
of this chapter serve to disprove the
words of the false, Bettering prophets,
while they confirm the words of God's
messengers. The false prophets fell by
those judgMents which they aaid would
never come. Jeremiah, the true prophet,
escaped those judgments which he had
declared would come. The false prophets
who had held up hope to Judah were
shown to be deeelVers while Jeremiah
was vindicated before all as God's true
prophet. Even the Oliaideans ;saw Heat
things were coining to pass as jerenii-
ah's God had deelared through.him.
&hie ill -usage and mocking of God's
prophets, and their resolution to go on
In their sins,' brought final destruction
to the nation. The 'plebe was not far
from ruin evben their religion was in.
rain. The treatment whith Jeremiah re-
ceived showed bow low in degradation
the kingdom of Judah had sunk. Wick-
edness in high pieces proved the nation's
ruin. The people were just as corrupt
and godless as 'their leaders. They for -
gook God in the day of their prosperity,
'and, 'when the hour of their need' cameo,
the gods whom they served were not
able to deliver OM. On their first
deviation from Goa he sent "nie:seengers
to reprove them and gave them early
and titnely notice of their danger and
duty, thus plowing the divine compas-
sion and unwillingness that they should
perish. All this was resisted, but its fut.
fitment could not be resisted.
II.Completed the nation's rebellion:
God's arm had saved Judah from Egypt
and Assyria. He could hitve stayed Ne.
buehodnezzar,but it was not longer
consistent with the -honor of God to pro-
tect so wicked a people. The history
of -.Tuthill mettle the long-suffering
mercy- of God toward sinners, and As
clearly the certainty of retribution up-
on unrepented and persistent sin. All
the shill, the courage and the endurance
which Jerusalem brought to bear in or-
der to avert the awful judgment, avail-
ed nothing. By sin they had provoked
God to leave them only to find that
inmunerable evils compassed them
about They deceived themselves in
thinkingto escape God's judgments and
i
further n presuming they could brave
them. The king and princes of Judah
not only rebelled against the 'king of
Babylon but set themselves in defiance
against God. There could be no further
forbearance, Many were put to the
sword even "in the house of their sanc-
tuary?' The Ohaldeans not only paid no
reverence to the temple, but displayed
no natural pity to sex or age. Teo late
the king sought safety in flight from
his ruinea city, it fugitive from God and
Nebuchadnezzar. Though; late, he was
made sensible of the fact that sin was
the cause of all his and his people's mis-
eries. The rich and great of Jerusalem,'
who had grown so by grinding oppres-
sion of the poor, were carried away cap-
tive, slain with the sword, or cast into
prison. The king met the most tryhig.
ohastisemenb of them all. Seeing his sone
Filain and also the princes whom he had
led into suolt gross rebellion and sin
was terrible indeed, and then to be
tbsprived of sight only to make memory
stronger power to, increase his misery,'
was a full recompense for his wilful
blindness to God's loving kindness. He
could proceed ne further in rebellion.
His captivity was for life. King. and
people had reached the end of power.
Thus Judah fell when all Jehovah's at-
tempts to recall the chosen people to
their allegiance to him had failed and
the apostasy from him and his law had
reached the utiniest limit.
III. Revealed God's guiding Imo& The
exile was made a blessing. to the whole
world, for the Jewish nation was there
by made fit to fulfil he destiny in the
redemptive plan of God. This punish -
meet was not the. annildlation of the
thosen people but a radiealcere for
them. He is far from ,eonfdunding the

ments. When it was discovered ,that Je-
remiteh was in chains, he was liberated,
