The windows are dark llots of dull coloring, and have no nor churm. Tney are unsightly, and one could almost grieve that they took up so much space against Uheigntud old walls, lint wait till the Jlings his lances i through them. TThcn they -burn and glow with coloring which is enough to defy the trash of an artist, the pen of a poet. TThe irregular patches of jflaKS Ijecome crimson robes that quiver with the richness of their hue.

The dreary white oblongs become angels' silver wings, through which the light streams as if the glory of Heaven itself was illuminating them, while faces, tender and holy, shine out in 1Che great windows, and i speak to tlio hearts of heroes and saints followed the Master of old would load others in those same Messed steps. The sunlight translig- nires the windows and makes them with inisuspt-cted glories, so 'ft is with our daily lives.

Nothing can be unlovely, dull nor nn- wightly lias ordered for us.

I do not, care bow c.et;j ami nvcci und tender and accordant love may render the home life, it can not but happen that in the close contact, in ibe everyday openness and disclosure of the home, our bail points will come out. No family is made up of perfectly straight sticks, but crooked ones.

And when they nrn piled tojjother in the closeness of home life the crookedness will appear. The man and woman married the inost utterly. married airing the whole line of their natures, must yet find some point where there is not complete contact. There is dissimilarity of temper, there ha.s been dissimilarity of education. Ueforu musicians can pour forth a perfect harmony, they must bring their instruments into tune.

Ttefore two hearts can perfectly to- petlicr. they must be keyed to the same note, and that can not be altogether done before marriage. The exact real Self does not appeal- in courtship. It is the best self, the self dressed in tho best wardrobe of manners and sentiment and sacriliee that appears then. After marriage the self puts on its common habits and appears for what it is.

Then each real must adjust itself to each real self; then must each and forbear. Then must any incompatibility be met and mastered by a mutual charity which suiVercth longand is kind, which never faileth. Now it is just here ia this closeness nnd disclosure of the home that religion is most needed. One must enter into the Christian method of finding life by losing it; the soul must possess itself with-the of a Christian patience. A Christian love must put its foot upon tho neck of any miserable pride of self-assertion and keep it there.

AJClmstian confession of wrong must be as quick and spontaneous as the breath. Christ in calmness, in tenderness, in self-sacrifice must dwell in the heart of each. Then shall that home be Wayland lloyt. THE MIGHT OF TRUTH. It Only Proviill When It IJrnvely MooU tho Enemy Tuie to Fucn.

vSorne one has said, "England has so fed on the pap of compromise as to be unable to conceive a muscular revolution;" and it may fall out that the disciples of our Lord, in their desire to avoid contention, and in their good- natured tolerance of deadly heresies, mav become traffickers and bargainers in holy things, aud soon cease to have sufficient iron ia their conscience to resist vigorously the encroachments oE oven undisguised enemies. The policy of non-resistance I condemn and deplore. Occasionally some cwelHnean- ing soul ri.scs in the midst of the but- tle nnd sententionsly utters the misleading platitude: "Truth is mighty and will prevail." As to "truth being mighty," it is rarely considered that it can never come olt victorious unless it tnkes the field. Who ever heard of apathetic, silent truth against active and eloquent error 1 1 Our Lord Himself was nnl slow to answer His adversaries. The early Christians had their elaborate defenses; and 1 question whether any assault has been cheeked by allowing jt to continue unopposed.

Thoughts o-f self may change into poison the healthful nature of reasoning. All exercise of logic and all inquiry tend toward evil if they are not born of love for truth, for truth's sake, and for the sake of good truth will do among men.

"If the Coat Don't Fit Do Not Put It Oru" The Frettjr Foot Attrlbntc of Arlntoc- to Cover It ''LovcllceM Revealed Gowns. iCOPTRIGTJT, "If the coat fits, put it on," is an expression much used by lovers of metaphor.

Its DCffative might appropriately be applied in a literal sense to roaJ coats and real people. Emphatically, so sayb everybody, if the coat docs not fit, above all thing's do not put it on. The idea goes further than this, too, and may be put in this way: If the coat, dress or hat, or whatever it may be, does not befit you, do not it. Many a luckless maid, all for the love of finery, has exposed herself to criticism for wearing 1 that are unsuitcd to her station in life or her affe or her race and previous condition of servitude. There are a few characteristics which lineage and ancestry give us.

Sometimes they spring 1 from the soil, but such arc rare. One of these characteristics is a slim, shapely foot. Oh. no! I'm not going- to talk about Trilby. Poor girl! she's dead, and for one, shall let her rest.

Ihit if anyone wants to bring her up to refute my argument, I shall refer him to Trilby's father, who, notwithstanding his bibulous tendencies, was a gentleman and a scholar. The idea of the pretty foot as an attribute of aristocracy is so well recognized among women that they struggle to obtain at least a semblance of it at the cost of comfort, and therefore of grace. Small regard is paid to nature in the choice of a shoe. If your foot isn't slim it ought to be, is the dictum of the makers of footwear, and the unfortunate possessor of a fat foot can get no ready-made shoo to fit it. The theory is that so long as there is some place left for the surplus width to ooze into no harm is done.

A great deal might be done for the babies of our race by tying up their feet, Chinese fashion, while the bones and sinews are in a formative state. A light bandage only moderately tight would serve to circumvent nature in her efforts to give us something -wider than skates to tion of some of the more elaborate styles. Black continues to be the prevailing color for all times even though many prefer colors. In this we are not reverting to the styles of our grandmothers, for they took great delight in their immaculate hose. Just now fashion requires the finest fine that it is almost too.

a little above the ankle. Bridal hosiery is especially fine. One beautiful black silk has applique embroidery in white mousse! inc de soie with little paillettes and pearls forming checks across the front of the stock-ing. Another pair, also of black silk, is ornamented with garlands of roses and orchids running up the sides. With slippers the stocking often matches the dress, or it may be a light pearl tint.

Lovely dreams in pale rose or blue arc garnished with insertions of white laces. Flesh-colored stockings have like trimmings of black lace, and any and all of them are scattered with little jewels or jet as the fancy dictates. The brief lull in the craze for pretty garters has brought on a reaction, which promises to be even more violent than before. Vulgar elastic is but meager support for the exquisite hosiery I have been describing. One must have ribbons and lace and flowers and jewels to grace such loveli-, ness.

The designer's fancy has not been confined within any limitations of jeweled buckles and the like. Garters are not the simple affairs they onco were. Any latitude is allowed, provided the resul't be ornate. There are five varieties in the illustration. One of these is brilliant rose velvet with three set on in front, from each of which fall ends of ribbon.

Another is of yellow liberty satin with" a flower of white lace and a bow of blue ribbon at the side. A very pretty design is in mauve-satin shirred very close with a ribbon ruche around each edge, and a butterfly bow of chantill3 lace in front from which ends of ribbon with chrysanthemum choux. A fourth pair of rose-colored velvet fastens with a jeweled buckle and has a gold serpent turned around the ribbon with a head set in precious stones. Yet another is made of blue velvet ribbon, tying in a bow at the side and gar-' nished at intervals with bars of gold set with precious stones. Such garters as these one micht easily make, and A r.KCEl'TIO.N DAY ON THE L.AW-V.

stand on, and it is surprising t.hat ambitions mothers have not tried some such methods upon their unpromising offspring ere this. Seriously, however, the slim foot is the easiest kind to deal with. It admits of ornamentation which the chunky foot will not bear. The long pointed toe gives the appearance of slcndcrnoss to a short foot, and if the surplus space be stufl'ed with cotton it is all the snme to the foot whether it is confined a bit of cotton or a piece of shoe leather. However, there has been a slight reaction in the matter ot razor toes.

The very latest thing in shoe's is the square tip. The shoe is quite as narrow as the razor toe, but it is just as if the point had been chopped oil'. "This is a sudden change." said a shoe dealer in r.uswer to a question: "we had intended to put all our square-toed shoes on the bargain but now we are selling them at the usnnl price." The French have always led the fashions in footwear, and no one knows the A STMFKONT IN BLACK. seductive power of a prettily dressed foot better than a French woman. More tlian this, the true Parisian loves to feel that she is thoroughly well dressed from top to toe.

Such tastes lead her into all sorts of extravagances in the way of underwear, luring her into the purchase of silk tights and hosiery until there is very little money left for outer garments. Especially docs she glory in the possession of pretty stockings. Those most desired are of course made of silk, and as elaborately embroidered as.one's cash will permit. Fancv has fairlv run riot in the direc- with few brilliants to set in ncre ana there one could make a very fair approach to Parisian luxury, at least. Before leaving the subject of fool- wear I want to add a few words as to shoes.

I have said that the square toe is the correct thing. As to materials, nothing has yet interfered with the reign of leather. For street wear the correct shoe is the English laced boot with the square, low heel and stub toe. These boots are very high and correspond to the new style in gaiters. These button half way to the knee, and, unless carefully shaped, are very uncomfortable.

The French heel, notwithstanding ajl the maledictions that have been uttered against it, is coming back in evening slippers. It is the real Louis XV. affair, arched instep and all. Some of the newest styles havsa a high daring piece in front that looks like the tongue of a shoe greatly exaggerated. This has a large buckle in front.

Another design with the same piece in front has a small buckle at the side. This style is pretty for houscwear. For evening wear, instead of the light shippers made of the material of one's gown, tinted leather is preferred; natural leather tints, such as beige and little lighter. There is very little space left to de- scride a couple of pretty gowns which are worthy of notice. They are both black.

It makes very little difference how somber one's material is, in fact it is rather to be desired. The idea is to get a very dark material and brighten it up with trimmings'. One of the most brilliant costumes which I have seen was a black- satin with two rows of ermine fur around the bottom. A triangular trimming of ermine was set on at the hips and another band of the same fur crossed the front of 'the bodice. With the white lace girdle, the whole effect was very stunning.

Another costume less striking, but perhaps in better taste, was of that silky, black riopling crepon, trimmed black velvet. The skirt was plain, except for a band of velvet around the bottom. The bodice, of velvet, had a plastron of buff chiffon gathered into a crush collar of velvet. The sleeves were also a pale yellow veiled-with black mousseline Little choux were set on at each side of belt and collar. Right here is where the idea of fitness comes in.

There are people who could wear the first of these two gowns and not appear at a disadvantage, but such as can carry so much style and brilliancy of contrast must have a dash and bearing about them, the ordinary girl does not possess. The plain, everyday young woman would be safer in choosinjr the second, of the two costumes, and sbe need have no fear of being any the less attractive. ALICE AVOUY. PROF. FALB ON 1895.

JUU Announcement of tbe Critical for the Comloc Year. Prof? Kudolph Falb. of the discoverer of the "critical days." in giving their number, order and dates for the coming year in the columns of the Deutsche Kaiser-Kalender for 1S35, states that observations begun in 1SC3 convinced him that the influence of the attraction of the moon and Sim upon the waters of the sea had a similar effect upon the oceuu of the earth's atmosphere, as well as upon the liquid and volatile masses contained in the interior of our globe. He discovered, says the Baltimore Sun, that great atmospheric disturbances, shocks of earthquake and explosions in mines were surprisingly often coincident with the days upon which the most extensive tides and other oceanic commotions were caused by the influence of cither moon or sun, or both. These periods Prof.

Falb distinguishes by the name of "critical, days," because they mark, on the one side, periodical "turning points" in the equilibrium of the noptunie, plutonic and atmospheric masses above mentioned, and on the other side afford the measure and means for computing the degree and effect of lunar aud solar forces upon Our planet. The individual constellations effecting each for itself increase of these forces are: First, the perigrec. that is the time when moon aud earth are nearest to one another; second, the moon's equatorial position; third, the perihelion, wh.cn our globe is nearest the sun; fourth, the sun's equatorial position; fifth, the syzygies, or new moon and full moon; sixth, the lunar or solar eclipses. The coming year will be especially notable for the fact of its three most critical days being accompanied by eclipses. In mentioning the dates in the different orders and grades of individual effectiveness, Prof.

Falb takes care to state that the results of the strongest attractions often precede their "critical days," as theoretically computed, by one or two days, while those of lesser import may be from two to three days later than periodically fixed. The latter may also be the case at the time of critical days of the first order whenever long-continuing and extensive atmospheric pressure or eastern winds prevailed previous to these dates. The following are the "critical days" for 1S05: Of the first order: September 18, March 11, August 20, February 9, October 18, April 0, July 22 and January 11. Of the second order: May 'J, November 10, March 20, April 25, December 31, October l-l, February 24, June 22, September 4 and November 2. Of the third order: May 2-1, December 2, December 10, June T.August 5, January 25 and July T.

A BEAUTIFUL SIGHT. Upon of Snotv-Vfnltc In "Trans-Siberian Savages" the author gives the description of a beautiful and unique phenomenon which he witnessed off the shore of island. The bright blue water was so clear that for a long distance from the shore he could sec the bottom, and even the fishes, shoals of which were moving gently hitluT and thither. Above the fish wa.s a strange phenomenon; the surface of the water was like dazzling snow. This brilliant white surface, which extended over an area of nearly a square mile, was not sea-foam, for with the exception of the ocean swell, the water was placid a lake, My friend, seeing my delight, motioned me to hand him one of the rifles.

He took no aim. but simply fired. Instantly the air was full of skimming snowflnkes. scintillating in the bright sunshine against the blue sky right across the horizon, while the surface of the waterecused tube white, and became uniform in its blueness. This is the most, beautiful sight this latitude has to offer, and most fortunate was 1 in getting it.

Just at that, season upon millions of exquisitely white birds migrate to that spot. They arc whiter than the whitest of gulls, and their plumage is much more brilliant, so us to be quite in the sunshine. What these birds are I had no opportunity of doterraininjr W. L. DOUGLAS $3 SHOE IS THE BEST.
