A very pretty and simple ilesign lor a 

 suininer wash dress is here sufrf^estcd : 

 Make the skirt in round length vvitli a 

 full, straight finunoe about twelv(! inches 

 deep. Head the llounce with a narrow 

 band of embroidery. 



The waist is made with a .S(|uare yoke 

 of all-over embroidery from eight to ten 

 inches deep. A rntlle of embroidery out- 

 lines the yoke. The lower part of the 

 waist is full and pouehcHl in front, while 

 the hack has a few gathers drawn down 

 straight. The closing is at the back. 



The sleeves are elbow length with little 

 fullness At the elbow, however, is a 

 deep, full ruffle of the embroidery, which 

 is cut narrower at the inside of the 

 sleeve than at the outside. The collar 

 and sash may bo of soft ribbons of the 

 same color as tlie dress, or white. 



Belts made of shoe strings woven to- 

 gether are very fashionable just now- 

 The ends of the strings are fringed to 

 give the belt a linish. It is fastened 

 with a fancy pin. 



Something quite new this season are 

 the flowers made of ribbon, silk and 

 chiffon to be ushed as dress ornaments. 



Sweet pea blossoms made of chiffon 

 are fastened in bunches on the shoulder 

 or attached to a silk cord which is used 

 as trimming in any way desired. 



The following article.s of dress are 

 very much in vogue this season, although 

 not decidedly new : 



Sashes with short bows and very long 

 ends made of soft ribbon or silk. 



Beaded purses with figures of all kinds 

 woven in them. 



The bolera jacket, especially those 

 made of lace and lined with soft silk or 

 chiffon. The color of the lining should 

 match the prevailing color in the dress. 



The feast of resurrection which we 

 now celebrate as lOaster took its name 

 from the old Saxon word "eastre." To 

 the Saxons "eastre" was the name of a 

 heathen goddess, whose festival they 

 celebrated in the spring. They fasted 

 for many weeks before this festival, but 

 on that great day their feast began. 

 Even among the poorest that day was 

 considered the greatest of all days. In 

 the small villages the peasants bring 

 their food in baskets to the priest to have 

 them consecrated. The wealthier people 

 have the priest come to their homes and 

 consecrate the entire table after is is 

 fully set. This feast begun lasts for many 

 days, the table always standing loaded 

 with food. New dishes are brought on 

 as soon as the tirst ones are linished. 



The children have a table hv tliem- 



selves, where dainties of all descriptions 

 are placed. The only custom we have 

 borrowed is that of using colored eggs. 



THE HALO. 



"One London dealer In birds re- 

 ceived, when the fashion was at its 

 lieight, a single consiiErnment of thirty- 

 two thousand dead humming bird.«; 

 .uicl :iMotlier received at one time thir- 

 ty theusand aquatic birds, and thieo 

 hundred thousand pairs of wings." 



Think what a price to pay. 

 l'";H'e.'j so briglit and gay, 

 Just for a hat! 

 Flowers unvisited, mornings unsiing, 

 Soa-rangts bare of the wings that o'er- 

 swung,^ — 



Bared just for that! 



Tiiinl< ol' the others, too, 

 Olher.s and mothers, too, 

 BriKht-Kyes In hat! 

 Hear you no mother-groan floating 



in air, 

 Hear you no little moan, — birdllngs' 

 despair, — 



Somewhere, for that? 



Caught 'mid some mother-worl<. 

 Torn by a hunter Turk, 

 .Just tor your bat! 

 Plenty of mother-heart yet in the 



world, 

 Ml the more wings to tear, carefully 

 twirled! 



Women want <hat? 



Oh, but the shame of It, 

 Oh, Imt the blame of It, 

 Price of a hat! 

 Just for a jauntiness brightening the 



street! 

 This is your halo, O faces so sweet, — 

 Death: and for that!

AT SET OF SUN. 



If we sit down at set of sun, 

 And count the things that we have 

 done. 



And covmting find 

 One self-denying act, one word, 

 That eased the heart of him who heard. 



One glance most kind 

 That fell like sunshine where It went. 

 Then he may count the day well spent,

"They are slaves who fear to speak 

 For the helpless and the weak! 

 They are slaves who will not choose 

 Hatred, scoffing and .abuse 

 Rather than in silence shrink 

 From tlie truth they needs but think! 

 They are slaves who dare not be 

 In the right with two or three."
