One of tho mest difficatt problems connected with the administration of the Order is that pre- sentsd by the frequent calla for assistance by those who, while passing through the large cities, or temporarily sojourning there, find themselves without means for continuing their journey or for temporary sopport. So numorous ars the calls opon some of the Lodges, and so necessary has it bscome to make proper inquiry into all cases, thatin many cities a Relief Committee has become almost & necessity. o case of application to such Lodges, an in- vestigation must in each case be made to prevent ition or imprudent assistacce, but where jety exists for that purpose, one investiga- tion is suficient, and all meccssary, and ‘may much more easily be afforded. Such a gocietly bas for some years been sustained by a few of the L:ffi" in Chicago, but the burden’ has been unequally borne, and fhe Lodges still subjectsd to the same calls for aid. * The last Grand Lodge of Iilinois passed an enabling act that will permit societies to be or- ganized snd supported, which will meet the ex- isting exigency, and relieve the Lodges, sod equalize the burden necessary to support and carry on such an enterprise. "The following is the goactment referred to: An act entitled an act to ensble Lodges in certain cities m?":“é:. w guon j_ufl:odlcflm of the Grand Lodge of the 0is to organize Eoards of General Beiief of the L. 0. 0.

ADay that Will Ever Be Happily Remem- bered by All Concerned. There is s circle of acquaintances in this city, koown to us, whose mutasl respact and good fecling is typical of all Chicago society. Itis composed of lesding families, endeared to other through years of pleasant association on the part of the older members, and of merry friendships between the younger omes. Of course this coterie never lets the joyous Christ- mas time come and go withoat tendering to one another practical tokens of estesm. We koow, from confidences already -imparted. the various gifts each has dotermined upon for® the other. In mentioning these gifts to our readers, we, of course, withhold the names of the parties. The object is to show, a8 & pleasant example to tho resder, what sort of presents ladies and gootle- men of culture, friends and associates, are about to make duriog the coming happy Christmas time. . THE JEWELRY GIFT. Our circle of friends bave, of conrse, made handsome jewelrya feature of the presents which they have determinad o boatow upon one anocher. The gifts in this line include a mag- nificent goid watch and chain for ono of the Londs of the families; superb bracelots of the massive pattein now in vogue, and 80 justly ad- mired, for one of their lady associates, aod choico sets of broochos and ear-drops for the others. A handsome silver service has slso been ordered for one of the most osteemed matrona in the circle, her husband and sons coneluding that no more appropriate or pleasing gift conld bb tendered her. These presents have been se- curod at tho spacious snd elegant establishment of C. D. Peacock, on the morthwest corner of Washington aud State streets. All thatIs rare and beautiful in tho way of jewelry, dismonds, waiches, silver-ware, etc., has its home at this charming store. Gifts to fascinate and endare are to befound here. A present culled from the noble display at this store will be gomething to kéep this Christmas in glowing Temembrance a8 IKB happiest of all in the lives of both the gver sad the recipivnt. A NOBLE G{FT. In thisbappy and refined coterie of {frionds are two married gentlemen who are pecaliarly exultant over their sagacity in chotce of presents for their wives. They informed tho wtiter last week that esch of thet had concluded to make glad the hearts of bis madsme_with a superl ovening dress all made up. ** Where is the sar- priss coming in #” quoth the wriier. *'T1s easy onongh,” was the response, * although we admit that we are not versed in the harmony of colors, por the suitability of styles. Wo have given Ghormley ‘a carte blancbe.” The writer had heard many s glowing tribute é):u'd this artist by the foremost ladies of Lhis sod other cities. He knew that Ghormley had the measure- ments of most of the prominent ‘lsdies of cultare and position in Chicage ; that he wag an understanding student of their complexion, tomperament, etc., and that be conid fashion & superd costume for one who might be 1o total ignorauce of the rare enjoymentin store for hor. Farther inquairies showed toat this kiog of modists and his corps of gifted aseigtants could constract perfect toilets for ladies whom they bad mever seen. As Worth is to Eurape, 80 is Ghormley to Americs,—unigue aud ‘matchless. Tadies of judgment now leave the matter of se- lecting their goods wholly to Ghormley. e can archase for them, they all concede. mors cloge- y than themselves. Ho hss nis own spe- cial designer in Paris, and consequently receives the newest and most distingue of ideas. He is himself & natural artist, whoee capabilities are onhanced by years of trainiog and experience in fashioning suits for ladies of the highost social rank. A lsdy clothed by Ghormley 18 far mora tban attired in the ordinary sense of the word. She. i8 adorned and besutified; her ehaims beightened and her defects subdued. She be- comes indeed rare and radiant, s picture from (he canvas wrought by a mastar hand. And she 15 fashionsbly costumed withal; is faultless in all that unites to produce that iodescribable sud Justly prized something called “stvle.” How conld it be otherwise? Has she not been ap- pareled by that parsgon of modists, Ghormley, the Worth of America ? i TIE PCERLESS CABINET ORGAN. . A cabine: organ we believe to bo the soarcs of moze permanent, downrighs cujoymen: for auy cultivated home then all other modern house- Lold equipments.

The Mason & Hsmlin orgao, which is sold iu Chicago at Nos. 80 and 82 Adams street, has been covered with medals from the most critical of exposition committees the world over. It has never failed to receive instantaseous indorse- ment when tested by the mausical kings of Europe &nd America. 1t has stood the exacting trials of unbiased professional scrutiny and years of hard practical usage throaghout two hemispheres.
