The Wingham Advance, 1911-06-22, Page 2,vrtr •-• gee"' 0%1A.4‘,1 A\11 A\ Small wonder is it that the tiverage znan has little sympathy with women who complain of beiug utterly worn out trying to get their summer wardrobe in order, Man, mere man, cannot for a moment realize the amount of time, thought and patience required in these troublous times to select what is be- coming, suitable and smart.. One great difficulty lies in the fact that fashioas change witb lightuing rapidity and for no obvious reason. After having se- lected a certain style of hat and gown as being just what is smart and attrac- tive, new liats and uew gowns will ap- pear in the leading shops and will be worn by all the best -gowned women, and the fashions of a month ago will look "dowdy" and. "oldetimey," two terrible criticisms to be passed on clothes. It requires really a lot of courage and poise for a woman to -day to retain her cool, quieb. judgment as regards dress and to remain satisfied with the selection she has made in the face of such uncer- tainty, FULL, GATHERED SKIRTS. The exaggerated, scant skirt has been accepted by ninny, if not all, wo- men as fa,shioneble and smart, and now come skirts gathered or full around the waist, gathers and fullness carefully dis- posed, however, so that the gown shall not make the figure look large or fat. Nothing mote terrible than to be con- sidered fat can be imagined. it re- quires cleverness and skill to arrange a, full skirt as not to give this dreaded effect, And the carefully fitted lining is the only solution. .A. silk or satin lin- ing so close fitting as to outline the figure elmost too plainly is most charm- ingly hidden under.' the over -skirt of tranparent material that falls inhgrace- NI folds over it, a little -gathering or fulness where the overskirt is joined to the belt. A wide double box pleat at the back and overlapping parts of an embroidered chiffon overskirt is not un- becoming even with a figure that is in- clined to be large. This Beeson the overskirt is a most marked feature of all gowns, and a most remarkable variety of 'effeets is to be noted. Folds of the material are draped in bias diagonal lines across the front. Tunic overskirts of lace and embroidered tule, lace flounces and short apron overskirts are all in style, and no one can be classed. as the smart- est. Filet lace apron overskirts are ex- tremely effective carefully fitted to the figure, and the most exquisite of lace is usedefor this purpose. Strange to say, this apron overskirt is filet lace. .There are lace bands on the waist, but often these are of a different kind -Cluny, Valenciennes or even a Freneh imita- tion late. FRINGE AND JET TRIMMINGS. ' All overskirts are trimmed, or rather finished with some sort of trimming -a fold of chiffon silk or satin or a fringe o silkeerystal: jet or chenille, or if the overskirt be of chiffon there may be a seaut flounce or land of lace as a finish. This band may be wide or narrow, as is the more becoming. The Russian blouse fashion is :mg. gested by the silk or satin belted blouse to be worn with voile, lingerie, net or lace gowns. It is rather a trying fash- ion, and requires a good figure to look smart, but it is certainly attractive. The -newest model is sleeveless, but it is cut long over the shoulders, so that the effect of an exaggeratedly short ki- niono sleeve is given and the armhole is very large, so as to allow the wearing underneath of a lace or lingerie waist made with the kimono sleeves, It is worn with a belt of velvet, and ie fin- ished with a itemise edge of heavy laee. Cerise, green, blue yellow and pink are the favorite eolors, and. there are some most effective black coats of• this order. The model is used for the filet and. Irish lace coats worn over silk or satin gowns. JETTED TULLE AND NET. Jetted tulle and net gowns made UP over satin are invariably becoming and effective and never are entirely out of style, but thie season the same effect of gown in different colors is smarter than the all black, Mole eolor, or taupe, as le the correct term, made up with steel embroidery is far smarter, and there is no end of the most charming pattern robes of this description; the embroidery. nu the net oet tulle is in the open work, nothing. heavy lookieg, and the best model is the eloee fitting antic, which cloaely outlines the figure. The satin underskirt is wider and longer than is eonsidered really fashionable, but it is me of the newest models, and, while there is mord width and* length, the whole gown is so cleverly designed that it gives the appearance of elenderness. WAIST SEVERE. IN LINES. The waist is almost severe in its lines, quite fiat, cut square in the neck and with half sleeves. The ea= modelis effective in other colors, and MI6 been made in white over pink satin, .but the darker colors it is smartest. Such quantities ef lace as are used this season- There are few; if any, gowns on which there is not some lase, while wide flounces are moste cleverly &aped And "worked in" with Mind's of entire deux or embroidered ehiffon. A popular model of embroidered volt de soie is BRexquisite shade of gray is trimmed with wide flounces of Venetian. lace. Folds of the material bordered with the lace are draped diagonally across the front of the gown, and at the back of the lace falls almost to the edge of the train. On the waist the lace is meet ehariningly arranged to fall in broad cellar or revers at one side, the other being draped with ehiffon or the Voile de sole. The belt .is placed high to give the short waisted effect SO fash- ionable at the moment and is of a deeper gray than the material. The color of the gray is exquisitely soft and over the white lute a peaady tone that is numb more becoming than the :gray that is generally chosen apd wine.; is apt; to be hard and cold. If preferred the girdle of belt can be �f a contractingcolor, but that is oat so smart or distinctive. To be .fashionablethie Rummer, gowns umst be loose fitting; or, at all events, give that effect. All the new corsets fit lose over the hips and are extremely long, but, the low busted corset is de- manded with all the newer styles of dress. This fashion is most noticeable in the low cut evening waist, and il: is infinitely more becoininer than Any other, but care must be taken both with cor- set and gown that it is not too loose and too low busted, for then the effect is neither smart nor becoming. Every- thing about the deem of the present day is so deceptive! These same loose fit - ting e \valets have the meet carefully fit- tedlinings, the Waists- cut so exagger- atedly low in the back have a tranepai- ant piece of late and net to hold the sides together and the abreast invieible flesh color yoke and collar worn by the low ettt waist seems like a sort of com- promise with the fashion that so -stupid- ly tries to inaugurate iteell tst the col- larless efeets becoming to so few women. INDEPENDENCE IN. DRESS This is certainly au age of tadepende ence in dress'and once. again it must be said that thebecoming and suitable fash• lone should be chosen in preference t� all others. And when there are so many dih feretn stylee, materials and- colors to se- lect from certainly it would be worse' than folly to select the Unbecoming siin- ply because it has a certain air and style that make it stand out from a lot of IT'S TIME FOR GRADUATION DRESSES.

Places: Demeans; tits. metal the Jordan, The power of Uod of lerael was nuinifeeted ina remarka- ble way ia the healing of Vaaman, the Syrian, of the leprosy, it was a strange providence which brought the knowledge of God to the afflieted man. As we read the entire acoeunt of Nattmen's heeling. we are brought te feel that the hand ef God is upon the affairs of individuals ea wel lite of nations. 11. Topic: The prayera ef a righteous man. Places: Dothan; Samaria. TOree fade stand out prominently here; 1. God has a knowledge of future events„ (wen though they are contingent upon the choices of Men, 2, God can make las thought clear to men. 0. The Lord has marvelous ways of aelivezieg hie people. The Syrians should have put to good use the knowledge of the true God received through the Ministry of allieint. III, Topic: Victories of Easter day, Place: jerusalem, near Calvary. The love that the followers of 'Testis had for their lefaster is clearly seen in their visit to the twill, early on the third day after his crucifixion. We are impressed with the thought that Jesus reveals himself to those who eainestly desire to find him. Those who find Jesus have a dee sire to let others know about Mm. IV, Topic; Difficulties in, reform work. Place: Jerusalem. The boy Joash, re- markably preserved from death„ had been placed on the throne of Judah, and instructed, in the ways of the Lord by Almada, the priest, and it was in his heart to repair to the house of the Lord. When through the slackness of the prieete, the work was delayed, Joash in- terested the people to make contribu- tions directly -for this purpose, with most satisfactory results. When one plan fail- ei another was adopted, for Joash was determined to accomplish the work that he knew ought to be done. V. Topic: God's purpose for all men. Places: The land of Israel; Isimeveh. God's interest in the salvation of the heatheu is shown in his sending a mes- seeger 10 warn them of their danger. His nierey is shown in preserving thein upon their hearty repentance. Man's sel- fishness and short-sightedness are seen in jonalest attempt to shun duty, and in Ids displeasure at God's exhibition of love aud mercy. Instead of rejoicing .in the fact that God had counted him wor- thy to act as his messenger, he attempt- ed to run away from duty, and instead of praising God because the .Ninevites repented and were spared, he was ctis. pleased at the Lord's manifestation of mercy toward them. VI, Topic:. True piety and self caul - Utile% Place: Jerusalem, Welsh, af- fords a striking example of how one can be humble and blessed, prospering great- ly, and then, by alloveing pride to enter his heart. can become an °hied of COB. tempt. The king did much for his na- tion, and but for his act of sacrilege, his name would have been handed down as one of the most illustrious in Jewish hietery. VII. Topiei Isaiales threefold vision. Place: Jerusalem. Isaiah's vision is a lesson for God's people for all time. The needs of a world lying in wickedness are presented, as also God's interest in man- kind in sending messengers to them of fering salvation. The eight of God's hol- iness makes man conscious of his own impurity. When man has been purged of his sin he is ready to respond to God's call to service. VIII, Topic: A nation's career. Place: Jerusalem. The lesson affords an im- pressive picture of God's efforts in be- half of his chosen people. Thi a is done muter the figure of a vine -dresser and his vineyarde. All was done that was possible to make the vineyard produc- tive but without success. The sins of Judah are set forth in two particulars: 1. They were incante4 to covetousness. 2. They were given to erunkenness. IX. Topic: Universal peace. Mace: Tho kingdom of Judah. Micah's pro. pheey is directed more especially to the Jews, although Israel is also mentioned, Re had a clear 'vision of the Messiah's kingdom. He uttered 11 prophecy of the restoration of the Jews from captivity, His utterancee, concerning universal peace are strickiugly eignificant in view of the worldwide interest now being tak en in behalf- of peace between all na- Hells. -Universal peace will reign be. tweet' ell nations. iheiversal peace will reign when Christ, the Prinee of Peace, shall hold full away, X. Topic: Timely admonitions, Place: The kingdom of Israel. Hosea presents a Maine thoroughly in harmony with the gospel plan of sidvations An appeal is made to letelselidden Israel to repent. The prayer indicates pentinenee, turning away from sin, consecration and faith. God's mercy and love are declared, and the bleseedness of a etate ef salvation is revealed nlifICT a 'succession of strik- ing figures, Men are given large en- couragement that, though they may have departed from God, they may be re- ceived back into his favor, This is a gracious provieton to meet the exigere cies incident to human frailty. XL Topic A 'union revival. Places: Jerusalem; .T.talah and Israel, nezekiali ranks among the best of judah's kings. Although he had an ungodly father, he set himself t,o serve the Lord. Ilis first important work was to open and cleanse the temple. Then he undertook to hold the Passover feast, which had long been neglected, inviting the people of both kingdoms to be present. It Was an °Maslen of great rejoicing. The king waa suceeseful in destroying idolittrY. XII. Topic: An historical review. Place: Samaria, Although Mallen, was better than malty of the kings of Is- rael, all of whom were wicked, the cup of the nation's iniquity was full, and the Lord. permitted the powerfttl As- syrian nation to fulfil her long -cherished desire to swallow ttp tsrael. od had for generations prevented hostile nations froth destroymg israel, but 'delta*, had become too deeply fixed in Israel to b ermlielited, and the people were *fried away in to captivity, PRACTICAL SURVEY.

Elislia'a prayer that hie ene- wies aright be powerless in their at. teIngta to do evil shows God's way ot shielding his own children from Wm and hie desire to save ea Men frets the practise ef sin. It is a challenge to God's people to conquer their enemies through prayer and by so doing over- throw the kingdom of darkness aud build up the cause of righteousness In Vie earth. Lesson tWeiVe briegs before us the closing chapter in the history of 15. reel as a nation. It is a dark &tare of continued ein against God, the begin - Meg of which wita the division of the twelve tribes of Israel, %Wiling dissolu- tion of the national unity, the revolt fro nettle national covenant, and the over throw of the law. The end was cap- tivity and dispersion into heathen lands, never more to be a united people, mem- ously or nationally. During two hun- dred and fifty years nineteen kings reigned and not a righteous one among them. Their hearts weer set to do 0511 from the time of their revolt when ,Jero- boam set up the two calves and made separate places of worship. Lessons Lou; SIX and eleven relate to the kingdom of Judah, Lesson four show e how OA ten tribes affected Judah though they main- tained a separate kingdom. Sin crept m with its deadening effect. The kings of Judah were geperelly better than these of Israel. Different efforts of reform were not thorough and only temporary. 'Lesson six shows to what heights of prosperity God can bring a nittiOn through a pious king. It also shows' God's sure punishment of sin, Lesson eleven teaches the necessity of beginning at the inner life first in order I() bring about a revival. II, Touching the prophecies. Lessons five, seven, eight, nine and ten are taken from the prophecies and embrace the work of foreign and home mission- ary work, temperance and intenuttion- al peace, Lesson three, thrown in be- tween, leads us to the triumphant re- surrection of Christ to whom all the, prophets look and through whom all the glorious visions of their day were to be fulfilled. In lesson five is exhibited in the person of Jonah the exclusive spirit which binders the upbuilding of God's kingdom in the earth and is shown to be directly contrary to God's plan for all nations and which must be set aside and overcome in every servant of God. Lesson seven presents a wide contrast in the attitude of Jonah and Isaiah. Is- aiah got a view of God's holiness, his own depravity and the world's need. Leqson eight gives an idea of some of the messages whieh it became Isaiales duty to declare. Lesson nine looks be- yond the age of the Jewish decline and portrays the glorious triumph of Christs s kingdom. In lesson ten we have a, tender appeal to Israel to come back to God. T. R. A. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS "Fear -not" (2 Kings 6. 16). Thi e ex- pression.is used scores of times in the scriptures for the encouragement of God' e people in all ages. Abraham heard it (Gen. 15. 1), Moses ,epoke it (Exod, 14 13), Israel heard it (Isa. 43. 1), Daniel heard it (Dan, 10. 12), the shepherds heard it (Luke 2. 10), the disciples heard it (Luke 12. 32),. Paul heard it (Acts 27. 24), John heard it (Rev. 1. 17).. What the servant saw aroused only -hie fears, but what Elisha saw gave him the greatest confidence. Even though Elisha saw the great host of the enemy, Ite also saw the mountains thronged with horses and chariots of fire. 'It is related that Oliver Crom- welPs secretary was once despatched on important busmese to the continent. He was detained over night at a seaport town, and. tossed upon his bed, unable to rest. At last he woke his servant and saM, 'I am greatly afraid something will go wrong with the embassy." "Mu- ter,' said the valet, 'did. • God rule the world before we -wore born?' Most as- suredly: Will he iatle it after we are dead7"Certainly? 'Then why not let him rule the present, too?' The secre- tary put the Government on God's shoul- ders,ai d in ab few minutes he was sleep- " ing soundly." -Here am I; send me(Isa. 0: 8)• There is Stir. a. -needy Delft either at home or in some foreign Well there is ability to labor, a call bast sounded forth, but the responses are few. What is need- . ed is not wider and more open fields, or emitter ability or a louder cell, but thetlottelt of fire that will preduce more responees and furnish the equipment for service. The field for us may be far away, or it may be at our doors, and possibly in our own homes. The ability we have may be small, but God can em- ploy it, if we but respond from our henrts to the call. Ourfamily may be eared with one exception. That one call for our care mid efforts. It is eAsy to find a field if the heart goes out. in love to God and man, and it is caey to over- look every field if the heart is cold and indifferent. The fichl may be har,l and ecein altogether unfruitful, yet, with our efforts blessed of God, mighty vestige will follow. A minister once said, "Let me telt you, my brothers, that there have been men just as nutelt set against religion as you are, and yet they sur- rendered to Christ: Do you know the story of John Bunyan, declaring, that he would not go into the kingdom of Odd, with an oath so horrid that even the abandoned people in the street tried to hush him up, and yet, in it little while, dreaming a dream of heaven eo sweet that the mere recital of it has enchanted all Christendom S" "And their voice WWI lime" (U. Citron, 110, 27). "1 'cried unto God with ttuy voiee: and lie gave var, unto me" (Pea. 77, 1). Thi e is the yoke, of prayer, Thete een be no eatisfaetor,y Christtau life without pras er. "This poor man filled, and the Lind heard 111111, end saved him out of all his troubles"' (Pma. 34. 6.) In the. great Passover relebrated in the aaye of ifeeekieh the voice of thanksgiv- iug was heard, Its wen aS the voice of prayer. People who ten tells with keen satisfaction of Soelety, polities, businees and a hundred other things *never allow their VoieeS to be heard in prayer or prelim+, and yet they desire to go to hea- ven and bitty even belong to 0Christie!!! chute -et.

Bumper Wheat Crop in India and Record Area Sown in Canada. Washington, June 19.-A bumper bar - vest of wheat in British India, estimat- ed at 369,000,000 bushels, :surpassing all previous yields and a record area sown to spring wheat in Western Canada, where DO per cent. Of the Dominion wheat is grown, giving rise to seeming- ly extravagant estimates of probable yield, are the features of the world's re- view of May agricultural news announc- ed by the United States Department of Agriculture to -day. In other respects foreign agriculture in general made aver- age seasonable progress. In Argentina the great wheat and flaxseed exporter of the southern hem- isphere, the autumn sown crops have en- tered the first month of trans -equatorial winter in vigorous condition, and on probably largely increased areas. The recently gathered corn crop there turned out -badly, and little or no sur- plus will be available for export. The corn crop of South Africa also is report- ed damaged by drought, and there prob- ably will be none for export.
