The little cap turban is fine wool crepe with a band of pin tucking to trim it. Silver looks well with hyacinth blue and is used on one frock as a shallow yoke which extends down the top of the sieeves in a strip to the wrist. ‘The crepe is gathered onto this silver band and forms a graceful draped | effect.

Now a word as to what the matron may wear and look well in for in- formal dinner. Of coursg, black makes her look more slender, but in gray is chic, and here is a dress that should appeal to her. It has a modi- fled V neck outlined with a band of beading in white satin and silver bugles, which swings around in a crescent to the armhole.

This also comes in several colors. Cver this frock might well be worn a long wrap of rich plum colored vel- vet with deep yoke of shirring and full bishop sleeves.

NE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY years ago, on a stormy Sep- tember night, two men were flying a kite. One was of middle age, the other was a young man, 23 years old. If any one else had been watching these men, he ht have said “What foolish fellows! Flying a kite on a night like this!” The were not foolish fellows. One was Benjamin Franklin, the other his son, William. kite for a good purpose. There was an iron point on the kit and an effort was made to send it so high that it would be touched by light- ng. Minute followed minute, but there was no good fortune. Then came a sud- den flash of lightning, which struck th iren point.

One is your Father."—Matt. 23:8-9. “Let us not forget we are brothers,” one brother said to another when they were in the midst of a quarrel. The quarrel was dropped instantly. Cer- tainly brothers should not quarrel. They ought to treat one another as brothers. But are we not all brothers? “Have we not all cne Father? Hath not one God created us?” Should any of us then quarrel with one another? Should we not all deal with one another as brothers? WOMEN’S FE tween the different races. And what has cursed the world more than race prejudice? Think of the cruelties that have been inspired by it. And still its made work goes on. This prejudice of race Against race seems to be furious in its hatreds and antagonisms. I can see but one cure for this evil. ‘That cure lies in the application of the doctrine of the brotherhood of man. All men of all races are of the same human stock, creatures of the | same Creator. Surely if we realized our common brotherhood, we would stop our race quarrels, as readily as the ibmthers mentioned dropped their quar- rels. | We should go on to establish kindly |and helpful relations. Some of the | races are backward. Let the more for- | tunate brothers help their backward brothers. There is enough of good in the most backward race to promise ATURES. D-§° |evil in the most advanced to check presumption; there is enough of both in all races to teach us impressively that we are all of one family, to bind us in compassionate brotherhood, to impel us to be mutually considerate and to seck in all possible ways to be mutually helpful. Jesus declared, “All ye are brethren, One is your Pather.” He throws down | the dividing prejudices of nationality, 'and teaches universal brotherhood. He calls for universal love without dis- tinction of race. National vanity and arrogant pride of race, with all their | evils, would soon disappear from the | world, and there would come a reign of peace and good will in which na- tions and peoples would seek to rival | one another in the common service of | all, rather than in selfish competition, | if ‘mankind would accept and follow | this divine ideal—the ideal of universal How unbrotherly is the prejudice be- 1mmelhlng better; there is enough of | brotherhcod. s Fortify the children’s health with this highly nourishing food.
