SAYS PASTOR Remark of Critic Given Answer Tn Strong Sermon by Dr. J. Boyd. . fimmmam LbXH' IT of by - - - IVrtV ' UQ,: II CORA MOORE, and ULUANYOUNO Here Is a design for a street costume 'In wool corduroy, an excellent material for the purpose, being soft, warm and stylish. It Is developed In terra cotta color, 1 yf I tli the collar and bond on tho skirt of dyed raccoon or Biherian squir rel. . The blouse is long-sleeved, cut ki mono style, with the material running lengthwise. The wide lapels which tuclt ' under the belt re cut from a cross ways fold of corduroy, thus giving breadth to the design. There Is a half length tunic, pouched, and with Us low er edge eurvHyr up a bit In front. The dress opens iniront and has a vest and inset in the tunic of white ratine fas tened with terra cotta buttons. The bottom of the skirt has an end of the fur banding run - up the center front, leaving a slight slash at the foot, and then a crosswise facing of the material, about a foot deep, Is stitched to the lower part of the skirt. ' . This design can be beautifully devel oped in black and white; with black fox or skunk fur, la olive green.. with opos sum, or in deep mauve, with .moleskin. It la extremely new and makes a ser viceable addition to one's wardrobe. It is possible to make the blouse and tunio removable, like a coat In this case it ' must be lined, in order to hold up the pouching of the tunic, and can button all the way down the center front Wew PasWoa Hote. A chlo hat to wear with one's street costume can be made of the suit ma terial or velvet which matches it In Tain o'Shanter effect, rather close fit ting, and finished with a band of fur about the face. This styls needs no frame and can be easily made at home, at a ridiculously low figure. Two-inch wide fur bandings can be bought by the yard for the purpose and three quarters of a yard Is all that Is required.

" rvmvrisrhtail 1913.1 When stout and God-fearing Crom well ruled England one Charles Stuart, 6on of the Charles I. whose head had tmi chopped off at Whitehall, was In exile in Holland.

" The lady thus honored by the fancy of the king, who was destined td be coincthe most profligate of all English monarchs, was by birth Barbara Villlers, of good family. Her father, a viscount, f.rtl in battle fighting for the father of, the restored king.

Jover. But the addresses of the king blot l ted out recollection of husband and ! lover alike. It does not seem that her : ready surrender was due to any affec- tion for the person of Charles, or even to the hysterical weakness that might be pardoned at a moment when the ,...,.it rioitriniia 1ov was welcoming the king for whose father her own c.u..

Cleveland, 1640-1709 even though she lived luxuriously at pubtlc-eostifrtre" palaces of IVhltehaW and Hampton Court She appeared often wearing jewels valued at 1200,000 though the wives of soma of our mod ern plutocrats outdo her in this. She was a passionate gambler, not hesitat ing to lose 1125,000 in a night and stak ing from $7,500 to 110,000 on a single dioa were her lovers, of whom she main tailed a horde, distributing among them with lavish hand the treasure she wrung from Charles. The foundation of the du cal house of Marlborough, was laid with 125,000 she thus tossed to John Church ill, afterward the first duke. All this Was known to Charier and observed by him with cynical- philosophy. Contemptible indeed was the persecu tion which Barbara employed against the wife of Charles, a Portuguese princess, whom he had been obliged to marry for reasons of state. The wife was Bmall, brown, unprepossessing; Barbara state, ly. as white of skin as black Of heart as fair of feature as foul of morals. In every way she thrust herself into the company of the queen, that all might note the contrast. When Charles, with singular blackguardism, introduced her to the queen at a public levee the latter did not at first catch the lady's name and reeirnerwliri"klndry" warmth. In a moment a lady-ln-waltlng whispered to her the truth. .For a moment she strove to subdue her feelings, but the effort at repression was too much for her and she was carried from the room in a fit, Of the five children of the Duchess of Cleveland whom Charles acknowl edged as his one he repudiated the two daughters married earls, and, the sons were granted coats-of-arms. given titles, and enrolled among the elect of the land. The blood of this woman flows in the veins of many an English aristo crat of today. In time her influence over Charles waned. The French government in pur. suance or the devious diplomacy of the day, sent over a famous beauty. Louise de Keroualle, to fascinate Charles and to wheedle him into a French alliance. Before this enterprise was undertaken the French ambassador at London had been instructed to secure the influence of the Duchess of Cleveland with the king and to pay her any price she might exact for her services. But the shrewd French diplomat reported to his royal master that the woman was so much a creature of whims and fancies that she would forget any such agree ment however well she might be paid, in tha sest of her pursuit of a new affinity or the gratification of any passing fancy. Hence the Keroualle was sent over, and with her, innocent, baby face and appealing eyes at once captured the fancy of. Charles. She was wise In her day and generation, however, and kept nun at a distance for a long time until the price of her complaisance was paid to ber king. Soon after entering upon thfse new relations Charles died. and. dying, the name of Noll Gwynn of all his favorites alone passed his lips. The Duchess of Cleveland now fell on parlous Utiles and met them as would a merely vulgar and degraded woman, bhe took up, one after the other. with new lovers each less reputable than his predecessor. One an actor named Goodman, tried to poison two of her sons that his share in her wealth might be greater. Succeeding him came "Beau" Fielding, whom she married. It was not a fortunate experiment for he treated herbrutally and she hailed with delight the discovery that he had anoth er wife living which nullified her mar riage, i la October, 1709 she died wretchedly of dropsy. Two dukes and two earls were her pallbearers! three dukes, her illegitimate sons, followed her to the grave, One turns with sadness from the record of her life to think of her brave and noble father avlng his fortune and bis life fur the perpetuation of the Stuart dynasty, which brought his beau tiful and at one time Innocent daughter down so low.

Boyd, pastor of the First Presby terian church, a' week ago following the Raymond Robins meeting at the Whits Temple, suggested th topic of the ser mon delivered by him last evening. ' TTrT Boyd said in part:-. . " 'The church cuts no ice,' I take it that those two men who let that remark drop in my hearing referred to . the present day organization of the church, rather than to tha inception and pur pose of Christianity.. The supreme function In the. modern church is Us consideration of the Individual and of human life and liberty. This was first proved when as 60,000 Romans screamed for the death blow from the gladiator to finish the Victim he iad felled, a monk, a man of God who could no long er endure the. awful butchery. Inter fered, and for his interference sacrificed his own life. But that ended the awful slaughter that put such an indelible blot on Roman history.. The Influence of Christianity could not be withstood any longer. Ww Valuation Bat . "Greece was smeared with uncleanli ness until Christianity set a new valu ation upon chastity. Honor and veracity Were given a place among the people by Christianity. The Ideal of Christ left its imprint which' resulted in the crea tion of, the home, the dignifying o woman, the sanctifying of marriage. Brotherhood - wa 1ronr when tha divine fatherhood was revealed, , "While the emphasis of the church has sometimes been wrong, the ideal of the Christian character has been held up to the world for 3000 years. The loyalty of the church to Jelus Christ has fixed him In the consciousness of this generation. Today we are beset by the Ideals of this consciousness, we are realising our shortcomings, and it is the church, and only the church, that has brought hia realization upon us; yet we say the church cuts no ice. ' "The world needs comfort and cour age, strength and impulse, to bear when' the load comes, and come it must. Never morn wears to evening but aome heart Is broken. All you in whose veins no longer runs the blood of youth, have ben disillusioned. Perhaps you have discovered that you are commonplace, tnat you have been a rat lure, it so, you are in danger; your heart will break and you will Bink. - Orsat Work Being Done.

A few years ago Charles Sheldon of Topeka published a little book of no litorary merit, not seven copyrighted, no publisher would accept it, yet 6,000,000' copies of "In His Steps" have been sold to people who wanted to find out what Jesug wanted them to do. .Ninety-two per, cent of all people actively Interested in charitable work in the United States ar church members.

This church supports seven missionaries In the foreign field. In the hospital at Peking, where our missionary works, 10,000 patients were treated. In the hospital where Our Dr. Wells Is em ployed at another city in China. 25,000 patients were treated. This is only a little part of what we are doing, and what we are doing is only a small part of what, the great church . of Jesus Christ is doing to alleviate the sin and Buffering of the world. "So I say Is the church failing any more than the home; is the church fail ing any more than the municipalities, to do its mission?' This task ' of redemp tion was undertaken , on the cross of Calvary, and it Is the most stupendous thing ever begun, i wonder that Al mighty God had the courage to try to build up a kingdom out of such as you and I. Human nature in itself is rotten. I claim that ali the uplifting influ encus In the world today are the result of the. church. In due time God will gather "together all of this great up lifting influence and through His om nipotent wisdom and grace human na ture "will be redeemed." 0. OF 0. "SWEET TOOTH" "PAYS FOR Y. M. C.

At Centenary Methodist church, East It Trimble spoke on "The Theatre What la It Todayf He aid in part: u It is sienificant that the problem which we have on, our hands today In relation to the theatre, Is the same as has been rife since the days of Boion, Ovid. Seneca and Tacitus. All down throuB-b. tha intervening centuries tne cry of discerning moralists has been to reform. But the theatre has persistent ly refused to reform. 'Some telling worn has been cone oy the press, of Oregon In castigating the atrical institutions and a morbid public taste which gives a warmer welcome to The Girl From Rector's' or The Merry Widow than to The Christian' or Shakespeare's best In my opinion, the show houses will never reform till they are reformed from without. Their purpose in the business is mercenary. They do-now ana always have -done the thing that gets the money. ' ' Aim at Cash. "They give the public what they want, not what they need. They aim at cash, not character. To amuse rather than edify, they are panders, not prophets. A cartoon In Life recently puts .the situation in a nut shell. "This represents the theatre's pro gram as a great can of heterogenous garbage; the public as a 2-year-old baby reaching Into the garbage can and help ing Itself freely; the theartlcal manage ment as a great ncgress -mammy, who Is supposed to take care of the child, lift ing her hands in helplessness and des pair and exclaiming, Jvat can I do, it cries -for ItT "When the moral tone of society reaches that average level where the Inane and suggestive and salacious makes no popular appeal then the the atre will change its program so as appeal to an elevated society not be cause it has reformed, or helped to re - form, but because the money is in that class of a program. Regulation Is Urged, "Till that time comes, and it is far ahead, if we may judge from the present pulse, the present stagings will continue and the theatre will do its full part to pull morals down to the lower level. In the meantime a wise public, if It values Its own moral progress, will regulate : the theatre in self protection. I "Professor James has said, 'that wher ever an emotion or a glow of fine feel-" ing Is aroused without an opportunity, for its exercise, it Is not only a chance ' lost, but tends whenever other fine emo tions arise, to prevent their taking the normal path of discharge.' To my mind, one of the chief .objections to tha t!io atro is that it fosters an unnaturalism, giving no opportunity for the exerelat of emotions .if they are good and too. much opportunity if they are bad.
