There's a corset that isn't a corset, a waist with straps for the shoulders and rows of buttons to button on skirts and stocking supporters and so forth—the Ball Waist —and that's about the whole of it. No you can put it In the washtub—no metal in it or on it.

It is worth

your

seeing, if

for nothing but how to sew on buttons'to button easy and never come off, and how to make buttonholes wear forever.

Women differ in then' ways of thinking and dressing as well as in other ways. This waist is for women whose minds are made up that they won't wear corsets.

There's much to be said on both sides but did you ever hear of a woman who hadn't made up her mind in some way? and is there any possible use in trying to get her to change it? She will and she will or she won't "and she won't.

You can get the Bali Waist and wear it a week or two or three and,, if you don't want itvJ akc it back to the store.?.?i'Arget your money

A W 1 I N IS S

One morium in May Crlorgio l'asseri, the celebrated author, whose greatest work had furnished t.lio subject for ono of the finest paintings of tho present day, was walking thoughtfully up and down in his study, slopping now and then before one or tho other of tlie open windows which looked out ujion a sp»cious garden.

Tho room, which was light and airy, was not .vmarkahle in any way. Thero were book s-iielves all around, a few chairs here and thero and books and papers scattered about in great disorder— that sort of literary disorder which prevails almost without exception in tho rooms of those who are devoted to intellectual work.

As the village church bell rang for 8 o'clock lie turned instinctively toward the door, then shook his head with a sigh, and going to the table ho began to unfold some manuscripts. Cut before the bell had finished ringing the door opened and a young girl of iterhaps 20 years, graceful in figure and with brown hair and eyes, entered the room. "Good morning, papa."

He who, at her apjiearaneo, could not congeal his emotion, kissed her on the forehead and exclaimed: "Today also?" •'Today more than ever," she replied. And with a sliado of sadness in her voice she added: "Is not this the last day?" '1 you really want to?" •'\es." replied the girl tenderly. •'1 want to be your secretary today, also. Of course wo cannot finish the book, but we can get through the chapter we are at vork upon."

Uiorgio Passeri iusisted that Emilia, as she was called, should abandon such a strange idea, for she must indeed havo other things in her mind that day. But she was immovable—she had always been a little obstinate. "Very well," concluded tho father, finally. "Sit down at tlio table." And after standing for a moment jHirplexed he continued: "We will let tho book go, today, 'lake instead some other paper."

What are you going to do?" she asked. "Keep still and write," ho answered, approaching her and caressing her htdr. Then he began to dictate in the following way: "They two. father and daughter, had lived alone together for many years." "Oh," said Emilia, lifting her eyes, "just like you and mo."

He motioned to her to keep silence, and then continued: "They were left alone when sho was only years old, and ho was not yet 30." "But that is just our case." "If you keep on interrupting ine I eliall lose the thread of my story."

And he continued: "She, poor little thing, could not appreciate her loss but he, iu addition to his own sorrow, felt that which sho would have realized if she had been older. It seemed to him that all his affection could not possibly mako up to his dear little (rirl the lack of a mother's sweet and tender carc. Some of his relations offered to take charge of the child, as it was thought difficult for him to bring her up alone but ho rejected the generous offer as if it had been an offense, fie would not bo deprived of his child or make her twice an orphan."

Two or three times during this dictation Emilia had tried to put in a word, but her father, with a slight movement of command and of entreaty, had silenced her observations, ami sho fhially resigned herself to write in silence, as he wished. "Tlius they lived together, having in the house only two servants and a governess, the latter of which, to tell tho truth, was changed quite frequently, so jealous was the father of any one who had an influence over the child. And, as she grew up, beautiful, lovely and intelligent, lie took pride in carrying out her education himself. "She. on her part, was not happy unless she was with her father lie was not only her.instructor, but tho chosen companion of her sport, and it was seldom that she ever left the house with any one but him. "The lapSe of time only served to mako this band stronger and moro tender. VS hen the was years old a rather amusing scene occurred between tho father and daughter. She declared one evening, with great solemnity, that she would live forever with her babbo, and that sho would not do like other girls who leave their home some fine day and go off with the first comer. The father then replied, smiling: 'Oh, you will do just as tho others do,' and she rose in great fury, :md began to cry and declare that her father did not want her anymore, if lie talked iu that way. Sho rushed sobbing from his presence, shut herself up in licr room, and was in towering passion for two or three days. Tho hignnr"

This time Emilia could not restrain herself, andsaid, laughing: "TheSignor Uiorgio." "No, no," said her father—"tho SignorPuntini." And he went on dictating: "Tho Signor I'untini was afflicted with an incurable malady." ''Oil. babbo!" exclaimed Emilia, "you had an incurablo malady?"' I "\e.i. indeed. But go on writing and I don't interrupt me." "1'ho malady of spoiling paper with writing novels, romances and poems, which went so far as to be printed and I bouiul and seen in tho windows of tho booksellers. "Xi iw this daughter had a great curios ity to read all this trash wliilo it was yet in manuscript, and she used to rummnw

through her father's papers, a thing which was not without some inconvenience, However, with the inconvenience there was some advantage, and tho advantage was this: Tho author realizing the difficulty of keeping from his daughter's eyes the things that issued from his ien took greater caro to givo to his thoughts ti pure and chaste direction. Ho did not, indeed, always picture life in roseate lines, but he took no pleasure in representing human brutality, and when, in faithfulness to his art, he could not entirely conceal it, he did his best to picture it in such away as would least offend the sensibilities of his first reader. Little by little thero grow up another Kind of union Iwtwoew father aud daughter. Ho was a very bad penman and his writing was the despiiir of printers but he wrote a plain hand which could bo ad at first sight by a child. "The father, selfishly, perhaps, gradually came to take advantage of this fact lie had her write tinder his dictation, first a little, then moro and more until sho finally liecamo his secretary idtogother. "In tho meantime tho years were passing by and the little girl became a young woman, and tlio young woman was as beautiful as ouo,could desire." "Oh, papa!" "Silence!" "So that even the street people turned to look at licr. Sho still declared that she would always stay with her babbo, but sho did not say it with the same emphasis as before, aud when ho replied that sho must submit to the common law she sighed and shook her head, but did not fly into a rage.

"There was very little company ever in the house, but once in awhile some one would drop in of an evening, or come to dine, and tho young girl always performed with much grac« theso occasional duties of hospitality. Now it happened that among these fow guests was a young man, an assistant to a professor cf mathematics, who, whether it was on account of tho cooking or of tho young mistress, showed so much pleasuro at having been invited to dinner ono day that ho was hospitably urged to come again, and so on, ad infinitum. "Between tho dinners and the following visits, which wero called visits of digestion, tho fellow was always under foot The author, short sighted and stupid, as are all others of liis kind, never noticed anything going on but tho young girl began to le absent minded, to answer at random, and to mako the most dreadful mistakes in writing—In fact, one morning she actually wroto caro with an h."

Oh! how you remember everything!" said Emilia, laughing. "Fhially the simple minded man of a father suspected something and questioned his daughter on tho subject

She, after dodging tlio point for a wliile, broke out into a torrent of tears and confessed that sho did not seem the same any longer, and that for some time sho liad been possessed of a vague unrest which she did not understand. "Ahime! After careful inquiry it was found out that the beginning of her uneasiness dated from the Wednesday when tho young assistant of mathematics was invited to dino with them. The innocent child feigned great surprise at this discovery, declared that the assistant of mathematics was unendurable to her that sho did net want to see him again, and in conclusion she threw herself weeping upon her father's neck and begged him to tako her far, far away to some place where there could not jiossiblv be any assistant mathematicians. "Signor Puntini, as wo have already said, was not very sharp about some tilings, but tho facts were so plain as not to be misunderstood by a man of even small intelligence.

The time so much dreaded had come at last, when the girl, forgetful of her solemn promises, was preparing to tako her flight from tho homo nest. "While the good man was still agitated by theso thoughts ho received a most respectful letter from tho young assistant. in which tho latter declared himself violently in lovo with tlio young lady, vowed that ho cotild not livo without her, and was anxious to marry her. What was to lx done? The young man was of good family, had fine qualities of mind and heart" "Y%s, indeed!" "No remarks, if you please."

Was not without money, and besides, if ho was in love with the girl she was also in lovo with him. "When the father asked tho daughter wdiat answer she would mako if the young man asked her hand in marriage sho turned all colors and replied that it was not possible, and that it was useless to talk about anything so unlikely to happen but if it were so—ah, if it wero so! and then by forco of that blessed habit which women have of melting into tears sho began to sob and cry. Tilings having como to this point, It is easy to understand how, In a short time, the author's daughter and tho young assistant of mathematics became promessi spost 'It would certainly be doing violence to the truth not to say that in giving his consent Signor Puntini felt a spiuon of tho heart Ho was then to be alone, without tlio dear and faithful companionship of her who, for nearly twenty years, had scarcely left him for an instant What silonco, what sadness there would be in tho houso after her departure! And perhaps his sorrow, too plainly seen in liis face, had cast a shadow over his daughter's happiness. He knew, indeed, that it was useless to rebel against the law of nature, and tliat he must rorign himself to what ho could not prevent He, therefore, tried to put on a cheerful face !n tho presence of the lovers, and to discuss pleasantly tho dotails and nrraugomouts of tho marriago. Tho daughter, poor, dear creature, tried to harmonize tho old affections and duties with tho new, and, to hor credit bo it said, sho succeeded very well up to a ccrtain point. "She told her father repeatedly tliat she want.-iI to perform in advance for him all the littlo acta of love and duty that would no longer lie possiblo after

Nevertheless, in sjito of her efforts, she showed that hor heart was not tlioro, and it often happened that sho would pay no attention to what hor father was saying, but would

Bo offered to exepso her, as one orton does with servants, in order to get rid of them decently, but sho rebelled against the sentences became excited and declared that sho did not want to give up her place as secretary until the last day, that being also tho wish of the aforesaid young man, and so on, and so forth, to the same effect. "The author had at that time just commenced a romance, in tho plot of which his daughter was very much interested. Ono morning, after much preambling and hesitation, she said: 'Ah, how proud I should bo if this book could be finished and dedicated to mo on my wedding day I What a tine present that would be!' 'We will see,' replied hor father, and ho really had the intention of gratifying her. But, as tho timo approached tho author's rein diminished, his disobedient fancv refused him colors aud flguros ho could not banish his daughter from his study, and yet he could not sec hor sitting there, licr head bent over tlio paper, without thinking of something very different from his romance." "Oh, poor papa!" exclaimed Emilia, rising and throwing herself into his arms. But he gently disengaged her, and, controlling his own emotion, begged hor to tako hor placo again, and went on with his story. "Thus, when only two months wero lacking of the time fixed for tho marriage, ho had finished but half of tho work, and when but two weeks remained he had scarcely accomplished twothirds of tho whole. It was then seen to be impossible to publish it on tlio wedding day nevertheless, Emilia" "There you havo at last called hor by her right name." "Emilia continued to como every morning to tho study, and to write the periods and phrases tliat dropped laboriously from the exhausted imagination of tho romancer." "Exhausted? Don't say that papa. Thero ar? some beautiful pages in your book." "You aro not an impartial judge, carina." of the romance) however, the dictator was often interrupted. Father and daughter would look at each other tenderly tako each other by the hand, as if going over again tho long years passed in faithful communallty of thought and without saying 80 openly, seemed to thank oach othor for tho good mutually dono hi tho past, and to beg forgiveness for what might have been amiss. "Tho wedding day was set for Monday, tho third Monday in May, and the young man went on tho preceding Saturday to bring his aged mother to tho marriage. He was to arrive by the noon train, and the ceramony was to take place at 2 o'clock. On that morning, the last morning, tho author went down, as usual, to his study but ho certainly did not expect to

"But at that moment the author scarcely remembered of having a romance to write. Tho characters aud situations of his personages were quite indifferent to him. He thought of tho romance of his own life, of which tho most beautiful chapter was just eliding, and instead of dictating to her ho would rather tako his daughter on his knee, to tell her ag:dn the' storied of her babyhood, at tho same time pushing back the clustering brown curls that shadowed her forehead.

WHAT MARRIAGE COSTS.

EXPERIENCE OF A MAN WHO BEGAN HOUSEKEEPING ON $500.

How tho Uiiiliu Wn» I'll rill slieil ami What the Various Articles Cost—A Careful ami l'rmlent Wife all EnHentlal to Suooe»»—l'olntorn for Young l'eoplo.

I have lieen married one year, and have been keeping house during that timo. The problem of fluanco Is always a difficult one to solve in the mind of the is-to-lio married man, and likewise to tho man who is married this problem is uppermost, at least for the first and second years.

To gauite the furnishing of a home satisfactorily by one's income aud savings, and to determine how well one may livo and still keep^his head above water, and even to lay by something, is no easy thing to do, and my tirst yetir's Experience with tho financial part, of married life may be of interest, and perhaps of material vnluo, to those men who have it in mind to tako unto themselves wives.

When I first met the lady who is now my wife it was iu the spring of 1888, and I had about J100 saved. I was then earning $3.75 per day, which had been increased to that figure gradually from Jl.M, anil was afterward further increased to $3 per day.

From that date until my marriago, in tlio summer of 1SS9 I saved enough from my salary to amount to about $500, which, after figuring and reflguring again and again, I concluded would be sufficient to marry with and furnish a home.

To furnish my home, which is a tenement of live rooms, at a rental of $15 per month, cost as follows:

Kitchon—Table, three chairs, $1.35 seventeen yards oilclot h, $4.-io No. 7 range, $20 one-half ton coal, $3.50 groceries necessary to start with, Including a barrel of dour, which lasted ten nioutlis, $10 other furniture, not Including chinaware, which was received as a wediUtig present by tho bride, $31 refrigerator, $14. The above includes a small oil stove, a most useful article, making the total for furnishing the kitchen $80.85.

Chamber—Twenty-eight yards wool carpet at 50'^ cents, #1-1.70 one pair portieres, $7.93 two shades, $1.80 cherry set, $27 mattress, pillows, springs and comforters, all the liest, $13.5(1 total, $04.(15.

Spare Chtuuber—Sixteen and one-half yards tajKistry carpets at (55 ceuts, $10.72 one pair lace curtains, $3.0S ono shade, 00 cents oue antique ash set, $38 mattress, pillows, comforters, spring, all tho best, $18.50 total, $00.20.

Sitting Koom—Twenty-seven yards tapestry carpet at 77 cents, $20.79 oue pair portieres, $S.4o two shades, ?1.S0 tapestry lounge, $1) bronze mirror, $9 extension table, $8 sheet iron stove, $18 four chairs, $8 making a totid of $S3.(M.

Parlor—Thirty-five yards tapestry at $1, $35 three pairs lace curtains, $10.98 mantel mirror, $10.50 center table, $0 plush set, $(10 threo shades, $2.40 making a total of $121.58.

In tho above furnishings all the curtains and shades wero put up at the figures given, and the carpets wero made, lahl aud lined.

Wedding expenses, including valuable gift to the bride, tour, clothing outfit, etc., $220.25.

Insurance of $500 on goods'for five years, $3.75. It cost mo to get married, furnish my home and step into it all ready to live, $052.13.

By allowing $50 for tour, $10 for gift to the bride, $50 for clothes, $10 for clergyman's fee, aud $10 for wedding ring, the wedding expenses might have been reduced $90.25, in which ease the total cost would have been $555.S7.

Then I find by experience that my wife and I can live well on $5 per week, and then, after paying house rent and allowing an average amount for clothing and tho necessary gradual additious to household goods, and after paying a certain reasonable amount for literature, amusomonts, church matters, etc., I can lay by about $5 per week.

Hence my conclusion is that a man may get married on a salary of $18 per week, if ho has $550 or $000 saved to furnish his home, or, if he earns a salary of only $12 per week, he win furnish his "home as well

old of home, all tho hopes that he cher- as I furnished mine, and get married, proished for her happiness, and that of her vided ho has saved $1,000. companion. But who knows when ho would havo finished if he had commenced in that way. He remembered, instead, that he had promised her something for a wedding present, which it was now impossible to give her. "A strange Idea struck him, and taking fresh paper, he dictated a lot of foolish tilings that passed through his mind. "It struck 0 o'clock. Emilia made an involuntary movement. Her father understood tliat it was time to close. "Then when it struck 0 and he saw the girl uneasy in her seat "That is not so." "Yes, indoed it is." "He leaned over tho manuscript and edded with his own hand: "What then, papa?" "(rive mo the pen." "To my daughter on her wedding day. "GIOKCIIO TASSEIU." "Oh, babbo, caro babbo, how good you are!" cried Emilia, escaping trom tho chair. "This timo you will let me kiss you." "Without doubt," replied ho, giving her two sonorous kisses. "But now go and dress yourself and mako yourself beautiful for liim." "She ran to the door as if her feet were winged, but suddenly turned back quite ashamed. She had forgotten to take the manuscript! But fortunately her father had not noticed it He had turned again to the window, and was gazing out into the garden, where tho nightingales, concealed among the leaves, wero tnlling their songs of lovo. "—Translated for Chicago Evening Herald from tho Italian of Enrico Caatlenuovo by Annette Crocker.

Why save so much!- I will tell you. On a salary of $12 nothing could bo saved to meet extraordinary expenses that aro naturally liable to be met with. For instance, you aro liable to have au addition to your family, and if so It will cost you at letust $50, and how can this expense be met if nothing has been saved unless there Is a balance in the bankf

The first years of married life are oftentimes financially tho hardest, for there are so many small articles to buy that to save much for times of need Is almost Impossible, hence tho importance of having a reserve fund with which to meet these expenses, or elso meet them with a good salary.

If a young married man will carefully guide his flnaneiid matters, with the aid of a careful and prudent wife, keeping an account of expenditures for awhile, and live within his Income, he will prosper.—Boston Globe.
