TO ENTERTAIN SOCIETYi A meeting of the Dorcas aocletyUl be held Monday afternoon with Jlrs. George Mashmeyer at her home n South Fourteenth street All members are requested to be present 1 - TO APPEAR HERE. ' 1 Maud Powell, the famous vloliait will be In the city Monday evenlag.1 December nineteenth and will give aj recital In the Murray theater. A critW cUm concerning her is as follows: Mme. Powell played with the breadth, dignity and passion that set her apart from other women, and with her sure and highly developed mechan ism put her In the class of leading violinists. To say that she plays like a man would be only a sorry compliment; her performance has greater distinction than that of many men who are applauded. To say that her artist ry is conspicuous for virility would not be saying all that should be spok en. There are women pianists who, In the hope of attaining virility became either Amazons or Xantippes. In or der to show their physical force and mental grasp they pound and shriek and scream. The truly virile man is also tender. He has a reserve force. Virility is not merely a matter of brawn and muscle. Mme. Powell has strength, sanity, sweep of vision, musical and aesthetic understanding; she also has the emo tional quality that characterizes wo men, but her sentiment is not a whis pered confidence, nor does it degener ate Into sentlmentalisni. She comprehends alike the noble serenity, the classic spirit of the old Italians, the romanticism of later writers for virtuosos, the restlessness of the ultra-moderns in thought and in expression. She is not an exponent or an Interpreter of only one school. Pholip Hale Herald. TRY THESE, WOMEN SHOPPERS Commencing right now, apply Elbert Hubbard's motto, "Kind thought, kind word, kind deed" to your Christmas shopping. Think of the time you can save if you commence your shopping now. Think of the pain and worry that the sales people will avoid If every one shops early. Try a kind word as you shop, and see the faces brighten, see the extra effort that will be made to please you. The kindest deed you can do between now and Christmas is to shop early. FOR MISS SWAIN.

Superintendent Mott has not heard from several whom he has asked to take part in the program. Jack Shcppard as a Text. Jark Sbeppard had a great hold upon the Imagination of the people of his time. The fact that 200.000 people witnessed him execution at Tyburn on Nov. IS. 1724. "upon tbe tree that bears twelve times a yea re is some witness to his grim popularity. But one of the strangest tributes ever paid him was the sermon preached upon him in a London church. "Oh. ihat ye were all like Jack Sbeppard began the preacher, to the stupefaction of his concresration. He went on to draw a parallel between things of the fSpah and those of tbe sou! and to point out that the genius shown in housebreaking miyht have been bestowed upon "picking the locks of the heart wiih the nail of repentance."

FASHION'S FADS

BY FLORENCE FAIRBANKS. v New York, Dec. 10. Today the most chic of fashionable w-omen are stockinged in blue, from the pale blue white to the deepest blue black of the crow'a wing. It is a color particularly adaptable to many costumes, and particularly pretty with black varnished leather low shoes, buckled with old silver or wide flapped with big ribbon bows. Much liked is a new shade of blue, which is also found in silk and velvet, and which is called by the makers "blueu d'enfer." Straight from Paris comes the idea of a matched set that is less expensive than one entirely of fur, and yet from the points of utility and beauty is equally successful. A broad band of black and white striped velvet forms the body of the scarf. The central portion is cut to fit tbe shoulders with a cape like perfection, and the ends taper to graceful points, from which hang deep fringes. An Inner band of black fur is used to outline the entire stole, which is possibly three yards long. This fur is applied just inside the edge and a quilting of satin or mousaeline softens the outer line. With this there come a muff, large, supple and fiat. Striped velvet forms the central band, on each 6ide of which is the fur, and broader puffing of velvet makes the assurance of size doubly sure. Quillings outline the openings at tbe sides. Any idea can be carried out along these lines. Indeed there is no excuse for old fashioned sets beig kept in camphorated inactivity. Bordered 6ilk mousselines and gauzes with borders of plain orange, above which are floral borders, are made up into charming frocks with touches of black velvet to give them character, and there are other exquisite bordure stufTs, in which the border is of Persian design with orange tbe predominating color. Plain and embroidered collars are still holding their own in regular and low necked shapes, and it is expected that they will be largely worn throughout the winter with both plain colored tub and silk-and-wool waists and with some of the fancier high-neck styles. Probably the so-called Russian muff and neck piece is the brilliant novelty of the season. The former could serve as a lap robe on bitter days. It is so huge that it covers tbe entire front of the skirt, and not only keeps the hands warm, but -most of the arm. In all the new fur coats that have dash and style to them the right side is crossed far over toward the left hip and lifted a little where it is gathered into soft folds and fastens over one large button mounted with semi-precious stones. The new silk crepe lining, interlined with wool, is admirably adapted for evening wraps. It can be bad in lovely shades of old blue, old rose, oyster white, dull raspberry and many others.

Christian EndeavorHome Missions

BY REV. S. Topic My favorite missionary' hero or heroin and why. Heb. xi. 32-40. Edited by Rev. Sherman H. Doyle, X. D. The Scriptural selection for this topic Is tin usually apt. In this list of famous worthies, who by faith performed deeds of heroism, tbe author speaks of a number in particular and then, overwhelmed by tbe lengthy list that still remains, exclaims, "J&d what shall I more say. for time would fail me to tell of Gideon and of Barak and of Samson and of Jeptba. of David also and Samuel and of the prophets?" And then he sums up tbe deeds and sacrifices of a great list In aa few worda as possible. Tbe great difficulty In choosing a favorite missionary hero or heroine Is tbe Ions Ust of them to be found In Christian history. Both time and space would fail us to merely mention the ncmea of the vast number of men and women who as missionaries have per formed heroic deeds. Moreover, in so great a number who performed equally heroic deeds and sacrifices It is no easy task to select one as a favorite Yet many. perhaps have some favorite missionary and in telling tbe reason for this favoritism will make many a meeting Interesting and uplifting. In tbe early Christian centuries there were many heroic missionaries. Leaving out tbe Master Himself, who was really a missionary one sent .from God what was Stephen but a Christian missionary when he tried to persuade tbe Jews to believe In Christ? Moreover, be. was a hero, dying as the first Christian martyr, yet praying God to forgive his enemies as Christ before him had done. Tbe twelve apostles were all missionaries. To them the great commission was first given. At the end of a century they, with Paul, had preached the gospel to practically all tbe Roman empire. Tradition tells us that each one of the twelve died as martyrs, Peter being crucified with his head down ward as not being fit to die as Christ did because he bad basely denied his Lord. Contemporaneous with and succeeding the apostles numbers of others preached the gospel, not a few of whom sufTered the death of martyrdom. Paul, the apostle to the gentiles, was the greatest of all first century missionaries and for that matter tbe greatest of all time. For length of service, for hardships endured, for sacrifices made, for heroic deeds and for results accomplished Paul stands in the front rank of all missionaries, and beyond ail doubt if all Christians were compelled to select a favorite missionary hero his name would be Paul the apostle. His life was filled with thrilling incidents. It was . in constant danger and at last was offered up In martyrdom. Any one who will closely study the life of Paul will find in It every phase of heroism and learn every lesson possible upon tbe subject of missions. He has been the type of all succeeding Christian ages and tbe church's greatest heroic missionary. Modern missions have not been without their heroes and heroines, and it Is for the members of each denomination to tell the story of their favorites ani their heroic deeds. BEBLX BKAXtrxOS.

In tbe Christian Endeavor movement the great crowd of young people and some older people, too. are "forwards.' They alwaya have the goal la view, and they press on toward It eagerly, bravely, strenuously. The growth of the cause to 71.000 societies In less than three decades is to be credited, largely to the go ahead element, the young men and women of vision and courage that have dared. A halfback or a fullback In football Is useful fellow who stands behind the forward" to support him and stem the opposing tide of play should the enemy pass tbe front players. In Christian Endeavor, as in all religious work, the halfback Is tbe stiff jointed, lukewarm person that bobbles behind the crowd and Is not very anxious to keep up with the procession. He lassoes the forwards with bis well direct-

H. DOYLE. ed murmurings and bis little criticisms and bis doubts and fears and at least ! hinders the forward rush. In many respects be Is a splendid fellow. His great fault Is that be hasn't enthusiasm enough to gallop with the crowd sor sense enough to keep out of tbe way. The fullback is a ponderous proposition. He has literally to be pulled along. Of course be Is a good fellow. One cannot but love him. The unfortunate thing is that he places his solid weight down on a back seat every time, and neither he nor tbe seat will move. But worse than all is the wayback. He la not In the game at all. He is among the spectators and appears to be a general coach. He is never caught In a scrimmage until It Is all over, and then he suddenly appears In order to explain at length how It ought to have been done. Well. I wonder where I belong? I know where I want to belong.. I love the forwards. I want to be among them. I will begin today. I .wlll move from the 'fullback seat right up to the front under the nose of the preacher In church and In front of the leader In tbe Christian Endeavor meeting. 1 will push everything that comes my way forward, not aside. I will smileI will encourage tbe other fellow. I will be among that host that rush on to great things with a hurrah. Ripple is Christian Endeavor World.
