The quickest way to get good new thing into use is to take the risk of it.

You can get the corset that, more than any other, gives a woman a happy face, you can wear it two or three weeks and return it if not satisfactory. Ask at your store. The corset is Ball's.

The store has a primer on Corsets also. That is worth your reading.

NAMES OF WOMEN.

Ther Change with Fashion* Quite Often anil Mean a Good leal. It would not be nt nil stirinsuisr if, in the centuries to come, the students of the social ff of the Xiuetceuth century .-honk! classify this gre-at cosmic century Into shorter ix:riod.« according to the fashions of fiivcn name? among women Kashioni. id men's, inline.- chaii^o somewhat, but not as women's. John, Charles, Gecrge and Willinni reign in 1S90 as they did in 1790. But the fashion in women's nauie changes every ten or fifteen years. It Is jK» silile that the sociological Xeiv Ze.ilander will find that the feminine keynames of this century, so to sjieak, uro about as many in number as the decades. Just what wiw the fnvorin- woman's name at the very opening o£ the century Is hard to j^tiess offhand, but the listener may venturo to sny that the Nancy epoch was alwut the first worthy of the word in the century. Among octogenarian ladies the name of Nancy seems to have a very prominent place. Further on down the century came the fashion of double names—possibly an old fashion revived—and we find Martha Anns, Marv Janes and Ann Elizas in nearly every family. Perhaps this epoch would lie best described as the Mary Jane epoch of our feminine nomenclature.

It is a littlo hard to locate these things in years, but the Lucy epoch began about the year 1835 and was closely followed by the Helen epoch, which left the mime of the beautiful daughter of Leda scattered broadcast over the country. Somewhat after the reign of Helen evime the most singular, unaccountable epoch of all, the Ella epoch. The use of the name Ella goes back to about the year 1830, though there may have been earlier examples. Where the name "Kiln" came from is a mystery. Ilie authorities put it down a corruption of the name Eleanor, which in its turn was corrupted from Helen. It appears to have no recognized place either in history or Action, though evidently itm borwed from a fourth rate novel. ... ~iy ruu., "meaning, without associations In the past, without anv other reason for existence at its lieginnins except that it pleased many people's fane v.

Now it no doubt has a recognized existence, since beautiful and good women have borne It., and, like all other names that women ever bore., it is sanctified with that other name of mother. The real Ella epoch did not set in us early as ISSOj probably it was at it* height nlwut the year 1*50. People thought it so pretty! "But itlssadiv out of fashion now.

There was on bin epoch that came in somewhere along there, probably ju-t after the Ella epoch, though the two names ran pretty closely together. The 'uiuic of Ida is a good and ancient one, though most of the people who took it up doubtless thought they had hit upon something quite new. Most of the Idas of the time aliotit 1600 were named for a character In a popular story or for one another. But following the Ella and Ida period there came another jzirl name which attained a most extraordinary race the Edith epoch, indeed, survives almost to the present day. Between 1805 and 187.") alxiut half of the girl babies were christened Edith, and the crop is ripening fast now as a matter of course. Look at the high school catalogues and see how they bristle with Ediths.

An ancient Saxon name, and a pretty one, disused for centuries and revived all at once—a happy revival if it hod not lw.en overdone. Then came the M-md-and-Mabel epoch—these names have to oe hvphenated because neither ever seemed able to Htand up without the other. They were a great rage in their turn. The main crop of MaudH and Malets will hardly mature before another five years, though the earlier sowings are ripe alre uly. Since then we have had the Marjorio revival—an exceedingly pretty name that., and better and more English than either Maud or M.-.bel—and now wo arc threatened with a Gladys epoch. Here we have another name out of the story books, arid an awkward one at that. But fashions in names had much liettcr lie revivals of old, disused English names, like .Gladys, Ethel, Edith, Barbara, than mere inventions or importations. And a great deal more depends upon the woman, anvway, than on the name.—Boston Transcript.

PLAYKD CRIITLE.

Col. Ijloodjptt's daughter, Zaldio, aviw fxcecdingly haiulsoino, but was so Jiaughty and uniiepous that the young inen of the community stood in awe of her. The colonel and his daughter lived in an old stone house, moss grown nnil ivcred with vinos. A stream that came tumbling out ot the lulls swept past the fiMt of the garden at the back of the house, and the fo.\, playing among the purple lark spurs, barkod the whole night through. Every surrounding wore the soft color of romance, and every sound about the old pliwe seemei! to be inspired by a lurking sentiment. The •Id man sat all day on the broad porch smoking his pipe, while Znldie sang old songs or played with dog on the soft and grassy slope. Even- one had come to believe that the girl lived merely to scorn marriage in her gentle and beautiful way, ntul there was^not a swain in nil the neighborhood that dared to breathe a hope of winning her.

Luke Brizentine. who owned tlin finest horse in the conn try and had therefore strong claims, hail asked her to share his life of corn bread and wild mustard greens, and had not only been rejected, but was violently kicked down tho steps by the old man. Sol. Mutterson had been equally presumptuous, and although he owned a water mill and a pretty fair article of bay steers, tho old colonel shook him until a dry grin of anguish that lasted several days settled on his faco.

One day slim young fellow named Griggle M. Robinson, while passing through the settlement, caught 6iglit of the girl as she played with the dog. Ho saw her hair waving like new wheat straw dashed about, and ho heard tho mnsio of her voice, anil then ho swore that he would win her. Ho stopped at a neighboring village, and in an adroit way drew the lundlnrd into telling what he knew of her. Then he went to his room to meditate upon plan of action, and ho was greatly encouraged, for Griggle was a lawyer and had practiced before a justice of tho pence. At midnight, just as his candle placed on the hearth had begun to nod, he got up, laughed softly, and in his subdued ecstasy gently bumped his head against the wall. Ilis plan had ripened. "I have heard," he said to himself, that pity is akin to love. Glorious l*"x't who wrote that, line! Ah! what a will he could li.ivo drawn up!—what a writer of mortgages he would have made! I will go to that houso painful cripple, with a few dollars in my pocket, anil engage board. They will not refuse me. I will converse with her as the days pass, and my own words niul her own pity shall kindle her soul into a flame of love*. Then, when she is mine, I will stand ont lefore her a strong aud sound man, and what was pity shall turn to pride. Griggle M. Robinson you wero bom to be great."

The afternoon was beautiful. Zaldio, tired of piny and tired of singing, sat with her father on tho porch, and tho dog, with a garland of larkspurs about his neck, snapped at tho horse flies that came bn/.zing through tho warm air. "Who is that at tho gate?" tho colonel nsked. "Oh. it is a poor, crippled man," the girl answered. 'Comeright on in!" the old man shoutod. "Zaldie, help him up tho steps." "Oh, no," tho cripple pleasantly nnswered, coming forward "I can help myself."

He came up on the jiorcli not ungracefully. and after bowing with a grateful air wit down on a chair which tho girl ran mid brought for him. "You look so tired," said the girl. "Let me get a pillow for you to rest your head on." 'On, no," Griggle responded, looking up and .smiling. "You linvo already made me so comfortable that—that" Here he broke down. "Tut, tut," said the colonel, wheeling about in his chair. "Wo ha\ only done for you what wo should do for any ono in distress. Where do yon live, hah?" "I live many miles from here," Griggle replied "tluit is, tho brown hills among which I onee happily dwelled are many a weary day's journoy from this romantic place." "Why, my dear sir, you do not talk like an ignorant—oxcuso mo—a crippled man." "Oh, pajta," the jjirl interposed, "cripmen, I should think, can talk as •well as any one else." "Well," said tho old man, scratching his head, "not as a general thing. Thoro is Hamp Smith, for instanco. Ho is crippled, and I don't know that I ever saw a worse talker. Howovor, that is neither her# nor there. Wlint can wo do for you?" "You can, If you will, do a groat deal for mo. I will explain my situation: It was absolutely necessary for mo to havo a change of scene, and I started out with that end in view. I havo traveled many miles, have crossed many rivers, but this is tho only place that holds out a promise of rest. Now, vo qomo at onco to tho

point, 1 \v:n:t fn !x\'ird witn .... while." "Why, my dear sir," tho old gentleman exclaimed, "I nover took a boarder in my life." "lint, p.ip.i," the girl quickly spoke up, "d let us take him just for a while, anyway. It can do us no harm, and will be so much .'f a benefit to him." "All right, havo it vour way."

What, a glorious time it WJLS for Griggle! He would sit on a rustic bench in the yard watching tho girl in her joyous play, and occasionally she would como up mischievously and throw a handful of (lowers at him. "Don't you wish that you could romp with me?" she asked one day.

Griggle sobbed aud leaned his Lead on the back of the liench. "Oh! please don't cry," the girl implored, "1 didn't mean to hurt, your feelings. Come, look up tinw. txe what a pretty (lower this is." "It is a lovely flower," he answered, looking up. "but I havo seen lovelierones—in fact. I see a lovelier one now." "I wouldn't allow any one else to sny that," she answered, smiling. "Then I indeed enjoy a glorious privilege." "If it is glorious to you it is surely pleasant to me." "Won't you sit Ix-side me?" ho asked. She sat dnwn. Ho stroked her hair "The angels must have spun this silk," he said. "Well. I wish tin- angels would tako care of it, for it is very troublesome." "Zaldie is pretty name." "Do you think so? I always thought it was horrid, but if you think it is pretty 1 will try to think sn." "Do you know what I wish I were, little girl.' I wish I were a great strong man, with a lace so handsome that von could not help loving me: but alas! I mil only a cripple."

He leaned Ills head oil the back of tho bench again. "Oil! pleaso don't do that," bile implored. "If you only knew how I pity you. I cannot tell you how much 1 have enjoyed your society—you came to mo as something to iro for and" "And what.'"

He looked up and gazed her eyes. "And it would gneve 1110 to givo you up." she timidly rejoined. "Tdon why give me up?" lie passionately cried. "Let me live here bo my wife."

Both of them put their heads on tho back of the bench. That niglit as Griggle straightened out his leg and got into bed he mused: "She is mine. Glorious l«'ing, Grigglo M. Robinson has won you."

The old man, whose heart was held by the girl, gave his consent. The wedding day was fixed. It was evening and Grigglo nnd Zaldie stood near the garden gate. "Loved one," he said, "you shall never bo sorry." "I know that, dear." "And when you set other men so active and strong yon will not havo a secret contempt for me?-' "Never." "Zaldie," ho exclaimed, "I am snro you shall not. I am no cripple. I nin one of tho soundest lawyers you ever saw. Look." He straightened out his leg and hopjied about six feet. Tho girl Bhriekod and fled to the houso. Griggle, knowing that her joy was overpowering, and that she had run to tell her father, followed. Tho old colonel came out. "My daugh|sooti ter lias told ine all," ho exclaimed. "Vile wretch, you have deceived me and broken my daughter's heart. You are not a cripple, but a lawyer! I will teach you a lesson."

Ho seized a hickory cane that stood leaning against the railing of the gallery, and with the wild strength of justice raised a goose egg between Griggle's eyes.

Tho shrewd but unfortunate young man has gone back to the turmoil of his cross roads home, and is practicing law before negro justice of tho peace.— Opie P. Read in Courier-Journal.

Aii old custom formerly prevalent in many parts of England was that of "heaving" or lifting," mostly performed in the o]en street. People formod into parties of twelve or more, and from every one "lifted" thoy extorted a contribution. Thoro Is said to bo a record in the Tower of London of certain payments made to ladies and maids of honor for taking King Edward 1. in his bed at Easter, whence it has been presumed that he was lifted according to tho custom which then prevailed among all ranks throughout tho kingdom.—Chambers' Journal.

Uut it is in the region to the east and west ot the lino of tho Thames river, nnd which it has been suggested may have leen the axis of the ancient glacier, nnd not very fur removed from this lino, that bowlders of extraordinary size occur most 1111-mero-iHly aud among them is a rock which until very recently has boou regarded as one of the largest, If not the very largest, bowlder that has thus far been recognized in this or any other country. This rock— of coarse crystalline granite—is situated in the town of Montville, Xew London county, al»)tit six miles south of Norwich, nnd about a mile west of the Montville station on he New London nnd Northern railroad: mid, under the Indian nanio of "Sheegan," has almost from the first settlement of tho country l.ieen recognized as a grent natural curiosity.

Its position is on the edge of a gentle mound or knoll, 011 the northwest slope of a little vrilley ami its dimensions, according to recent nieiusuii'ment.s by Professor Crosby, of the Hoston Society of Natural History, are as follows: Northwest side, •HI feet northeast, southeast, 45 southwest, 70. Maximum height, reckoning from the lower or down hill side to tho highest point on the upper side, approximately, ft) feet. approximate cubic contents, 70,(100 feet: approximate weight, nliout (1,000 tons. The cavity or recess leneath the rock, which Is said to have been occupied, at the 111110 of the first settlement of the country, by a Mohegan Indian (from whom the rock undoubtedly derived Its name) as a dwelling place, is sutliciently capacious to admit, of being used as a place of shelter for the sleds and other farm implements of the farmer proprietor. A rude ladder 011 the southern side of he rock affords facilities for reaching its top and obtaining a somewhat extensive view of the surrounding country. lion. David A. Wells in Popular Science Monthly.

Cuudy Then nnd Now,

It is a good thing for Moneybags, Jr., that the old man shows little disposition to retire from active business, for it costs a good deal more nowadays to do tho correct thing than it did when Moneybags, Sr., went courting. Take the one Item of cuudy, for instance. The old fellow brought a few bullscyes in his pocket now and then perhaps, when he went to gee his sweetheart, and even then did more than was exjiecled of him but today a pound of Ixmbons at $l.'io is nothing less than nothing if not put up in a dainty box that costs twice as much as the sweets it contains.

And then, when one gets accustomed to buying the box ami consider! nu it the chief part, of the gift, how easily one Is led on into extravagance by tho charming things themselves. Tho useful Is combined In tliem with the ornamental. There are pin boxes, soap boxes, sponge boxes, jwwder boxes, handkerchief boxes, jewel cases, glove holders—even sewing baskets—all exquisitely made in silver, or willow, or wood, costing from J3 to J50, and holding from $2 to $20 worth of candy, and serving, after the bonbons are gono, as a perpetual reminder of the giver and of the fact that tho box needs refilling.—New York Tribune.

In 1S07 England, although not emancipating the slaves in her own colonies, passed a law preventing their importation from Africa. In 1833, by an act of parliament, all slaves in the British colonies were declared free, and a sum of £20,00(1, 000 was voted to compensate the planters and others who possessed them. Thus freedom was not immediate. There was a system of apprenticeship of seven years that they had to serve Ix-fore they wero al lowed perfect liberty. As was foreseen, as as full lilierty was given and no laws existed compelling any one to work, all labor ceiised on the plantations. Tho 1st of August was a great, day to the liberated people, and tlioso who could in Trinidad repaired to the capital, Port of Spain, and, in order to appear as much like their late masters as possible, they purchased umbrellas and strutted about £hc streets with thein. To this day an umbrella is known as tho "first of August." I have frequentI ly heard it asked: I "Have you your Ilrst of August?" meaning "have you your umbrella*"—Cor. Philadelphia I.cdger.

A l'lilitleluii Wlio Is Sh.v Wiinicn. It has liecn said titneatnl again that Gov ernor Hill is an inveterate woman hater. The assertion is hardly true, for women who can discuss politic* have found him a delightful but timid companion. A.s a matter of fact he is shy of women, and his oft repeated remark that a man is no use a year before and a year after marriage is a fair example of his estimate of a woman's influence. A few years ago lie was raveling through tlii! state in 11 special car. At one of the stations a committee got aljoard to escort him to his destination, forty miles away. One of the mcmliers Imprudently brought his wife and daughter, anil, without asking consent, ensconced them in the Governor's car. Mr. Hill soon observed them "Who owns those womenlie demanded savagely of Colonel McKwan, who was In charge as chief of transportation. "Gen. Blank, Governor.". "Who invited them lieref" "I reckon he did! Shall I escort thein out?" "Oh, 110: don't do that. Hut this 110 place for women. Allow mi more of them in tho car."—Epoch.

n'eel« el Miuill llorc llilileU. careful investigation into the effects of small bore bull.-is on the human body bos been made by I'rofc.-sor Paul Bruns, of Tubingen. The conclusions arrived at must be considered in all lespeets satisfactory from a humane point of lew. It is lound that the hydiaul'.c pit sstire In tho wound Is much diminished, pattly on account of the smaller diameter of the bullet and partlv on account of the spring action of the thin steel coating hicli surrounds the soft, lead core of the new project lie, so that the extensive tearing of the soft tissues of the Kuly, which the old lead bullets used to cause and which often gave rise to the erroneous idea that cxplosno bullets were employed, will not occult

The new projectile used with the Belgian Mauser rille passes at 100 meters through four or live limbs, sniitshes thrive thigh bones, placed one In-hind the other, nnd makes a small cylindrical oiH'ning 111 the flesh The entrance of the wound is generally of less diameter than tho bullet Itself. The exit is a sltt or a star shaped opening, with torn edges, alxmt a quarter of an inch wide. At longer ranges—100 to l,iit)0 yards--the bones are not shattered, liut liored through In a clean hole or channel. According to Dr. ltruns, the chances of healing bullet wounds will, notwithstanding the much greater efficiency of the new ntle, 1m- much more favorable than ill the case of the larger bores.—New York Commercial Advertiser.
