White kid is considered extremely nobby, a charming specimen of this decorative fancy appearing upon a dark bine cloth driving frock.

A high belt of whits kid, stamped with delicate silver tracery, encircles the waist, while cavalier cuffs, wired collar, epaulettes and revers are all formed of the silver stamped kid.

presided at the meeting of the Columbian Liberty Bell Committee and delivered an appropriate address. "America," he said, "is entering upon her fifth century, a united nation, strong in wealth, stronger in intelligence and all-powerful in intense purpose. The time has come lor the creation of a liberty bell planned as a liberty bell, to ring only on the anniversaries of liberty events and those dates taken not only from the history of the United States, but from the world, not lorgettinir as the starting point that grand scene over six hundred years ago among the mountains of noble little Switzerland. "The time has truly come lor the finding of a harmony between and a method of celebrating those events that, together, make up the story of government of, for and by the people, not of any one nation, but of all nations. We have no place for a Westminster Abbey, but the tones of the Columbian Bell must celebrate the birth anniversaries of those men and women who, taking their full history, have earned their places in the immortal gallery of 'Cre ators oi moerty.

TElGERWflLT THE OLD CYPRESS TREE. WEDDING DECORATIONS. A Llttlo Thought Over the Details TVllIGlv a Stamp of Individuality to ths Occasion. It is a pretty custom to choose the favorite color of the bride for the decora tions, writes Helen Jay in the June Isidies' Home Journal. A brunette may have a yellow or crimson wedding and a blonde a green or pink, as she prefers.

Sentiment may add interest to the flowers chosen. For instance, if the bride is called Rose, Lily or Violet, her name blossom should be made prominent. "A black-eyed Susan" can be surrounded by her namesakes and a Margaret by her daisies. The idea can be carried out In the pins given the bridesmaids and ushers, as well as in the ices served at the supper. A little thought over these details adds greatly to the beauty ot the occasion, and gives that stamp of individuality and refinement which money cannot buy.

As far as possible all the relatives of the bride should wear her color, instead of the sombre black silk or satin which too olten casts a literal shadow over everything. As soon as the color scheme has been evolved the housewife should at once inform the caterer, especially it she lives in a small city or town, as his store ot accessories may need replenishing. Many a table has been marred by candle-shades at war with the other decorations. If the ices are to be moulded in new designs forms may have to be made for the purpose. At all events you are apt to get better service from the mau whose intelligent co-operation you seek, rather than from one whom you simply order about at the last moment.

In the favors used either at the breakfast or supper the housewile has a wide field lor the display of taste and quaint conceits. Instead of the inevitable fringed snappers, substitute one of the thousand and one dainty trifles hitherto sacred to the German. Tiny metal bells tied with ribbon, calendars with the date in silver lettering upon the cover, cupid arrows holding a pen, are only a few of the many pretty things which may be easily and cheaply used for the purpose. Worn by a Fair Graduate. A commencement gown of white crepe, with Empire eftect imparted by the ribbon and lace garnished short waist.

CURRENT MODES. How Fashion Is St Forth In Gowns and Garnitures. Muslins shot in rainbow hues are made into the most fetching dancing robes. Jockey epaulettes dress up the gowns ot grown-ups as well as juvenile frocks. Among the popular revived fashions are Lmpire sashes, puffs and ruches.

Short sleeves and long gloves will be the accepted style ot street gowning for sammer days. The melon-shaped yoke upon lace wraps is particularly fiecoming to the woman inclined to embonpoint. Ribbon-laced sandals have ot late found slight favor in feminine eyes, and this style of house foot-gear may, as the season advances, become quite the rage.

The family will be photo- JOHN BARTRAV. srraphed during the afternoon by Gute-kunst, and a banquet will follow, at which several addresses will be made by prominent members of the family. The grounds'and old house of the botanist are still in a good state of preservation, although the inroa ls of the advance of the city and building operations westward lately have almost closed it to view lrom the highway. John Rartram, who is accredited as tho founder of the family's fame, was born in 1701, at Marple, in Delaware county, wbere his lamily settled after having emigrated from Derbyshire, England. From childhood he was devoted to the study of plants, transmitting both his talents and tastes to his son, William, and their joint labors for period of nearly 100 years gave to the science ot the country one of the most useful contributions it has ever received.

THE OLD HOMKSTEAD. His father was a pious Quaker, and following bis fancy to have no other hands than bis own in the construction of a house and home, lie got out both timber and stone and built himself the residence now standing, wbere the family meets to-day. Over the doorway are the still legible words: To God alone, the mighty Lord, Tho Ilolv One, by me adored. Jons BARTRiM. John Bartram was pronounced by the celebrated Linnaeus to be one of the greatest natural botanists then existing.

His mind was probably first directed by the famous poet, Ijogan, to take up the study of botany, which was about 172k The piece of ground at Gray's Ferry, ns the district was then known, and on which the home stands, was purchased in 172S, and the house was built about li31. Rartram left on a botanical tour in 1742, which was arranged at public expense. The tour lasted three years. the specimens he then collected were sent to Europe and attracted the atten tion of Kahn, and alterwards Franklin. He lived to the age of'67 years.

The lamily have settled principally around Darby, Lansdowne and Sharon Hill, where to-day they own consider able property. One of the most inter esting specimens still remaining on the grounds is the old cypress tree, which is now reputed to be about 150 years of aze, and lowers above the other trees on the estate. The house is still in a good state ot repair, and is of the old-fashioned type ot interior arrangement. The event promises to be largely attended by others than the family who have been specially invited. Cures SCROFULA Mrs.

E.J. Itowell. Medford, says her mother has been cured of Scrofula by using four bottles of m. after having had much other tre CvW atment, and being reduced to KXSSaJt quite a low condition of health, as it was thought she could not live. INHERITED SCROFULA.

aWiFT SPECIFIC AAuu. Q. EOUDQIR CHAT. Hints Dropped In a Cozy Corner. How do I jjo to sleep? Never, let me assure you, in the so-called babyish fashion allectcd by many women.

Tucking one band, no matter how soft and white the palm, under the cheek is not part of wisdom's plan. It helps along ucly folds. Indeed, I have known creases of this kind to stay by one the whole day through. no, it wouldn't do at all. Here the oracle around which a half dozen women are gathered laughs as she smooths down a cheek as soft and line as a piece of creamery white satin.

Women learn a great deal more from one another than by studying up, each one lor herself. To be sure, somebody must have a mind for research. This somebody is, however, amply repaid for the effort by the deference shown her methods and opinions. No matter where I ro, and I am especially struck with this during the summer months, whether to seashore, mountains or springs, I am certain to run across a woman who has managed to become an authority on all leminine toDics. Wherever she drops down there a knot of interested listeners gather.

When clever enough to lay claim to the fact that she is up on the complexion, then it is that she scores he greatest triumphs in the way of followers. A morning on the piazza, a tramp over the down an idle hour down by the sea, or a mountain side constitutional, are one and all conducive to little confidences, and it only needs a smattering of boudoir chat to be carried about on the tip of the tongue to be voted an interesting companion. We have had so much this winter about one thing and another that there will undoubtedly be any number of interesting women on the wing in a few weeks. I only hope it may be my good fortune to tall in with some one whose mind is bubbling over with new and delightful Ideas. It is very jolly to And oneself occasionally an outside listener.

One morning in particular I struck a group cozily enscouced in a sunshiny corner of the big hotel piazza. Tongues were flying faster than fingers. What did I hear? Well, something like this: "Now, Mollie, vou don't really singe your own locks." Don't Come into my room tomorrow and see for yourself." "How is it done?" asked a chorus ot "Voices. Well, you must be a little carefuL It is rather a delicate operation," was the response.

"Do not believe I should have ever attempted it, but one day I found myself at a country farm house and not a barber within ten miles, do I went to work and did exactly as I have seen my Washington expert da The operation was a success, so I have been my own hair-dresser ever since. First, give your hair a vigorous brushing, then separate it into a dozen strands or more. Each strand is tightly twisted, then pulled out stiff and straight, and, holding It firmly in your leit hand along its entire length, you run a lighted taper. This actually licks off all uneven hairs, and when you brush out your tresses the broken ends have disappeared." Everybody said "goodness gracious," and there was a general protest against such barbarity, yet the assembled party cast the most admiring glance upon the fair speaker, and as they gathered a little closer somebody asked, "Are you as independent in other directions?" "Am Well, I have learned to massage my face as no maid, French or English, could do it." ''How old are you, Moilie?" queried an inquisitive soul. "Why I am so impertinent," she laughingly added, "is because you have the most perfect skin of any woman I know.

Not a line, and yet you have a son as tall as yourself." 'How old am Here I peeped over my book and caught a roguish twinkle in the deep blue eyes. "I am as old as I look and no older. 2sotv you have my correct age." Well, you don't look a day over twenty-live. What's your secret?" and the little woman who ventured the question in voluntarily put up her five fingers apd tried to smooth out the lines that lurrowed ber Drow. Too late, thought even if you get the secret it will do you no good.

Somehow the conversation drifted to purlumes. A bright little party took up the gauntlet thrown down by a prim-looking body who did not need the declaration which she made to convince me that she was a disciple to soap and water, pure and simple, and unscented soap at that. She looked clean and wholesome, but dainty? Xa The woman who talked perfumes aired my sentiments to a T. She talked well, as if, indeed, in love with her subject. I remember one remark that caught me: I would as soon think of leaving home without my tooth-brush as my case of perfumes.

They rest me as much as the softest Turkish divan going. I depend upon them to supply me with a sort of portable flower garden. Xot love perfumes! Fy! I should as soon think of crying down all the sweetest and loveliest of God's precious gifts, the flowers. Dou't tell me that the woman who declares against perfumes is not hard. I have never known one yet to cherish a single sentimental fibre." The prim body sniffed, looked resentful and murmured something about un washed vulgarity and the like.

I grew anxious lest this difference of opinion would break up the tete-a-tete, but the chatter went on independent of the ripple. There was a good deal said about rest. Most of the party were in accord. They agreed that it was the best known weapon ot defense when fighting wrinkles. One of th6 group asked if any one of the crowd had ever tried the mannish method of propping up the feet when found to be the tired cart ot the body.

"It is a heavenly relief," said she. "I don't wonder the men insist upon keeping their heels higher than their head when fagged. My plan is to bathe my feet first, then lie down and elevate them. This sends the blood back and relieves the blood vessels that have become over charged." Hera a pretty girl chimed in with the question: "You talk like an M. D.

When are you going to put out your sign? You have studied medicine, haven't you?" Madam laughed, smiled and answered: Only wish I had. Every woman ought to know more about ber bodily nee-is. We are most of us an ignorant lot. More's the pity." At this critical moment the bell-bov appeared, card in hand. I glanced at the name.

Another interesting woman. I am in luck this morning, thought as I slipped away to meet one of tho most charming friends 1 have down on my list. What did we talk about? I will tell you some day.

City olhce, 227 SIXTH sirevk He added that if our Revolutionary forefathers, in their triumph forgot to accord to the women who helped their, in the conflict, their rightful share of the liberty they had won, that omission would not extend beyond the close of the present century, as was evident from the presence 011 the committee of so many lemale descendants ot the men and women of 1776, and the existence of that most powerful lactor of to-day, the Society of the Revolution. MUSIC AND POETRY. Chairman McDowell also read a dispatch of regrets from Mrs.

Madge Morris Wagner, of Springfield, the poetess, whose lines had such an Influence in the creation of the Columbian Liberty Bell. As Mrs. Wagner was unable to attend to read her poem, her place was taken by Mrs. Stocking, of Washington, and the poem by Howard Hawthorne McGee, "The New Liberty Bell," was read by Mrs. Gordon, of Georgia.

John W. Woodside, of this city, chairman of the Committee on World's Congresses of the Columbian Fair Commission, was introduced and spoke briefly, closing with a short, original poem of two stanzas, addressed to the Daughters of the Revolution and the New Colum bian Bell. MR. SPEECH. Colonel Alexander IC McClure delivered an address from the Old Bell to the New, which he introduced with the remark that only those who had been oppressed could feel the lull force of liberty.

He considered it important that the Daughters ot the Revolution should dedicate the new Liberty Bell. He repeated from Carlyle the idea that Rome and Greece were not republics because they were founded on tho liberty of license, America being the first republic founded on the liberty of law. Freedom prevails to-day, he said, even among the old nations; even in Russia the people have liberty In the management of their municipal a Hairs. Colonel McClure closed with a fine tribute to the Daughters of the Revolution, whom he assured that they might well be proud of their work. REPUBLICAN ROUND TABLE.

Chairman McDowell called Miss Desha to the chair and read a report from the General Committee on the times at which the new Liberty Bell is to be rung, and the subject was referred to a committee of five to report at an adjourned meeting in Chicago on July 4. Ou motion ot Miss Desha it was ordered that the bell should he rung on the birthdays of the fifty-six signers of the Declaration of Independence.
