THE EVENING CALL. Vol.X No. 184 SOCIAL SALAD PLEASANTLY reported fur THE EVENING (’ALL. DEARER EVERY DAY TO TREE. Dearer every day to thee, What a world of meaning here. What a source of joy to me That th} - love to me so dear. Ever pulsing in this vein, Thou art powerless to restrain. Sweetheart, tell the loving story To my heart in pathos sweet, Whisper in my ear the gloiy Os thy love so sweet—so sweet; In my heart there’s love for thee And all the love thou givest me. Dearer every day to thee, Nearer now to thee I ween, Bends my love—just as a tree Laden with the dewdrops sheen, Bending to the earth that gave it Life—from dewrops as they leave it. Sweetheart truly I repeat All the love thy heart hath spoken : Would I could with love ’twas meet Truly give thee as a token Os my love—a love as sweet, As thy heart to mine repeats. Chide not—loved one—should I fail, In these lines to thee of loving In thy matchless strain—l quail— Dazed—confess my mind is roving, Seeking language to express Such love—and loving tenderness. Fear not though when I shall see, In thine eyes the love that shines On the pages now before me: While thy heart to mine inclines 1 shall then my love repeat, My love for thee—so great— so sweet. * * * Spring parasols are just beginning to stretch their gilded ribs and prim their gay plumage for covetous wo man, whose heart is sure to be set on a dome of duck’s egg blue taffetas, picked out in embroidered black silk dots, or a striped black and white taf fetas, with a wide flowered border and fluffy silk fringe edging, top and bot tom These at least are the two most distinct and pleasing styles in mar ket, though there is no reason to pie diet an absence later on otfeflounced chiffon, lace and open worked'suns protectors. The first flock of arrivals show without variation slender stuffs of pale yellow polished wood, the handles crooked and ornamented with ! a flat rosette of silk to match the cov- ’ ering A representative number of I pretty parasols are edged with heavy | deep silk fringe and a forecast of fu ture elegancies is the parasol of pale tinted crepa de chine, embossed in roses, stretched over a chiffon lining and bordered with a fringe that shows alternating tassels of silk and strings Os fine crystal beads. That all fashions move in a circle is attested by the fact that we are destined to wear, as the smart slipper of the season, a shape and material seen oft before. The slipper is either black patent leather or dull finished French kid, with a red heel and a lining of red silk. There is nothing surprisingly new about all this save the three pretty points that run upon the instep and the oval buckles of imitation diamonds, and rubies that are fastened at the base of j these points ♦ * * The meeting of the Hawthorne Club of last Tuesday afternoon was one of much pleasure, both to the membeis and the large number of guests present. The question of the “Advisability of Expansion” was ably debated and some excellent papers were read on both sides. The ques tion wag decided in favor of the nega tive side. Mrs. William R. Thigpen, Remarkable Rescue.

About thirty children enjoyed the festivities of the Story of a Slave. To be bound hand and foot for years by the chain of disease is the worst form of slavery. George 1) Williams, of Manchester, Mich., tells how such a slave was made free. He says: “My wife has been so helpless for five years that she could not turn over in bed alone. After using two bottles of Elec tric Bitters, she is wonderfully im proved and able to do her own work.” This supreme remedy for female dis eases quickly cures nervousness, and sleeplessness, melancholy, headache, backache, fainting and dizzy spells.
