iveness. The music followed. the Idea of the drama in its fancy now soft and low, now swelling Into joyousness, now shading off into weird, dreamy melody, then following the love sentiment with tender harmony, and then breaking out into vigorous expression of the joy of life, realizing the ideal setting of the poet of "perfect music unto noble words." And in all these changes of meaning and of expression

the instruments blended with such fine and harmonious unity that it sounded like one note. Baltimore American, Jan. 20, "09. ANNUAL MEETING.

Although the temperature is still rather uncomfortably chilly and raw. the spring season is approaching with giant strides. The big fashion shops in the downtown districts are making fine displays of spring and summer goods and styles and are giving the devotees of fashion the first, most delightful glimpses of the novelties of the coming season. There are scores of the most charming frocks in linen, muslin, summer silks, voile, white serge and in a host of other materials suitable for spring and summer wear, though in this time of triumph for sheer and light weight fabrics many of the new models might as appropriately be worn now as later. The voiles and silk etamines. the nets and crepes, etc., are all the year round materials now. Nothing seems to threaten the kimono or peasant sleeve with extinction and the skirt lines show no change, but one sees more of the frankly Empire and Directoire lines than has been noticeable on this side of the water during the winter season and these lines have invaded the realm of the street frocks Instead of being restricted to evening and house; irocKs as they nave been before. Even this winter, while most of the waist

lines have been raised a trifle the definite Empire character has been lacking in street toilets. In one of the fashionable shops there was shown the other day a piquant little trotting costume in very dark blue voile whose simple straight skirt rose to a wast line just below the bust, where it met a double cape that fell over the shoulders and upper arm to the waist line and was the same length in the back. This cape quite concealed the bodice save in front, where a collar of dull red turned back over the capes, leaving a V shaped opening where the guimpe of the bodice was revealed. A little of the peasant sleeve

with a red cuff showed below the cape as did a girdle of the red silk, which; tied in a square pump bow in front. The models in soft sheer materials show skirts falling straight or almost straight from the high waist and slightly fulled, but in heavier materials, such as lluen, sedge, etc., the skirt top is usually fitted a little to the figure curves and usually mounts only a bhort distance above the normal waist line. One often finds the top of a linen skirt scalloped and buttonholed for finish and then fastened firmly to the bodice. These skirts are difficult to launder well in linen: and if a linen frock is to be tubbed early and often it is wise to join skirt and waist at the normal waist line or a very little above and is a more short w aisted effect is desirid to produce it by an arrangement of wide belt or girdle. Where tubbing is not to be considered or where in sheer cottons or linens the shaping may be done by small tucks or plaits or the folds may hang straight and full, the very short waist need not present any great difficulties for the laundress. Judging from the displays In the shops pink wili be worn a great deal during the coming summer season. There are many delightful shades of that color, from delicate rose petal to glowing cerise. Many of these pinks are used, as they were during the w inter, to relieve more sombre hues. At one of the shops a toilet was shown that was extremely chic. It consisted of a clinging one-piece frock or tunic of smoke gray meteore, the skirt of the tunic opening up a little at each side near the bottom, with buttons of the material bordering the openings. Below this long, close simple tunic showed a short skirt of a delicious rose or cerise meteore, untrimmed and just clearing the ground. Stockings were of the cerise exactly matching the skirt, but the smart pumps were of the gray satin. A tiny yoke of cerise and a glimpse of the cerise bordering the peasant sleeves were the only other touches of the vivid color, and teh yoke was partly hidden under a Dutch coller of lace. A gray cordeliere served to define the high waist line. The fine cotton etamines are enjoying a tremendous vogue both for blouses and for frocks and are made up as simply or as simply or as elaborately as one chooses to have them. A little Irish lace enters into most of the designs and hand embroidery is lavishly or scantily applied. Bold embroidery on the etamine is an easy matter and there are many very charming blouse patterns of this ma terial made on the usual plain blouse and kimono sleeve lines and ornament ed around the neck, on the bodice front and on the sleeve bottoms with rather heavy embroidery in Russian or Oriental colors. IN THE SINK. My! Aren't they detestable? those sneaky little roaches that creep and prowl all over everything. You know how spry they are. But they can't dodge Hewitt's Easy Task Soap, and they can't abide it, so they clear-right out. Hewitt's Easy Task Laundry Soap is white and pure; keeps sinks, bathrooms and pantry shelves clean and sweet and free from mustlness. WANTED TO MARRY HIS AUNT; CAN'T New York, March 4. City Clerk Scully decided that the widow of a i young man's uncle is his aunt and .therefore, they can not marry. The matter was referred to him by George Fernz, deputy city clerk in Queens. He had been visited by Mrs. Johanna Pardey. of Ridgewood, who asked hlm not to rant a marriage license to her son, Frederick C. Pardey, and Mrs. Louisa M. Meisner, widow of her brother. Frenz told Mrs. Pardey that the law is clear that an aunt and nephew can not marry in t his state, but was not so sure that the widow of an uncle would be an aunt under the law. He, therefore, referred the matter to his chief. Young Pardey is twenty-one and Mrs. Meisner is some years his senior.

NEGRO SELLS $350 BILL FOR 75 CENTS New York, March 4. Alfred Goodl ly, a Georgia negro, was before Judge Swann, in general session, and pleaded guilty to stealing $300 from Mrs. Sorah Cortright. of 136 West Fiftythird street, by whom he was employed. Goodly said he gave the money to Mrs. Ada Robinson, a negro women, with whom he boarded. He said she told him it was counterfeit money and gave him seventy-five cents for it. Goodly said he believed her. as he had never seen any yellow money before. Mrs. Robinson was arrested and locked in the Tombs fore receiving stolen property. Russia is more or less dependent upon Finland for its paper supply, partly because of the Finnish manufacturers free ue of improved machinery and the application of late discoveries in chemistry.

BY REV. S. Prayer Meeting Topic For the Week Beginning March 5, 1911. Topic T.fssons from gxfat lives. Ill Moses. -tEx. ill. 1-14. (Consecration meeting.) Edited by Rev. Sherman H. Doyle. D. 1). The life of Moses is more easily outlined thtu that of any other of tut ancient Jewish patriarchs. It Is divided by years and each division opens a uevv period in his life iuu three eg.ual parts. He died at the age of 120 years. The first forty years of his life were spent in Egypt, the second forty in Midiau at the home of a relative called Jethro and the last for ty years in the wilderness. leading tin children of Israel in their wanderings, when God brought them to the west shore of the Jordan, v hence they were to enter Canaan, but without Moses because of his disobedience and hastiness on a certain part of the journey in the wilderness. Then from Mount Nebo he was permitted to look over into the promised land. But there he died, and God buried him on the lonely mountain when he had seen the promised laud, hut was not destined to enter, thongh It. must have been the chief desire of his heart. But one stn one at of disobedience, disbarred hini, as many are hut out from the heavenly Cauaan. A glimpse of Moses' life may not be unprofitable. 1. He spent forty years in Egypt. He was born when Hebrew males under two years of age were to be put to death to decrease the population of a foreign people in Egypt. Joseph and his work of saving the nation had been forgotten. Egypt feared an internal uprising of this ever increasing ntiou or with any outside enemy, which would menu Egypt's sure defeat; hence the edict to kill the male children. Moses escaped and was raised in the kt'ng's palace by the clever action of his mother. Here he received a fine education, which was undoubtedly God's purpose in saving hini as he did, that he might possess the knowledge which was necessary for the great work which God had for him to do. When forty year old Mones was told his mission and began at once and alone by killing an Egyptian. The next day he fled from his task and went to the land of Median. 2. Moses In Midian. Here he lived with Jethro for forty years, became acquainted with God, who appeared to hini. The purpose of God in sending him to Midian was to calm his disposition, and when God called him again he had become the meekest of meek and tried to give excuses. But God answered all his excuses, and at last the second period of his life was over, and be returned to Egypt to demand by the order of God that Israel under his leadership be allowed to leave the laud. At last, God having sent ten plagues upon the Egyptians,

The third period of forty years was spent in the wilderness, leading the people here and there until all had died who started from Egypt, except Joshua. Caleb and Moses. They spent a long time at Mount Sinai when the people, hitherto only a mob. wcr formed Into a state and a church. The tabernacle was made; public worship was inaugurated. God here gave Moses the Ten Commandment on tables of stone. Laws to govern the people were also made, and Moses became the greatest lawgiver in the world's history. Moses was one of the world's great men. With but one exception he was faithful to every command of God. From a quick tempered man he became the nveekest by the lesson he learned in Midian.
