A WORD ABOUT CORSETS.
The president of the Dressmakers' Protective Association frankly said
at a recent meeting, "A woman may be dressed with the severest simplic
ity, with the slightest expense, and yet be stylishly gowned if she wears
the correct corset." It is,interesting to note that the correct corset used to
demonstrate the new styles at this same meeting was the
C. B. a la Spirite.
The highest type of the American Corset Makers' Art. The C. B. a Spirite
Corsets are made in a large range of styles, adapted to the varied require
ments of different figures, and affording the opportuniry for satisfying in
dividual taste. The new straight front has won unqualified approval and
ts to advantage both those of slender build and those inclined toward em
bonnoint. It adds rounded contour to the former, reduces the proportions
of te latter, and with any figure gives the advantages of beauty and hy
gienic arrangement by lengthening the waist line in front and establishing
a correct poise of body.

:Bishop Meade's "Old Families ~anl
Churches" she'd have a fit. It won't
do, Kitty; it won't do. Something has
got to be done."
"Yes, but what?" said the girl. "You
can count on me. I'll earn my board
while I'm here if I possibly can. How
does Governor Telfare like his rival?"
"He's simply crazy, Kitty. He is
just at the age to want to do things
in a hurry too. Folks say he never
cared for his dead wife, and I suppose
this Is really his first love affair. He
confided in me and said he simply
could not bear a refusal. Then, just
as I have explained to you, I told him
what we feared in regard to Lydia's
sympathy-I called it that-for George
Buckley and advised him to handle
her cautiously. He turned as white as
a sheet, and his proud, thin lip curled
like an angry dog's.
"'Do you mean to tell me, Mrs.
Cranston,' he said, 'that I have a rival
in that man, the son of a Georgia con
vict-I, the only living Telfare in the
line-I, who have been honored by my
state as the Telfares before me have
been honored? Am I to meet on equal
ground, under the roof of the most
aristocratic family of the Old Domin
ion, a man of that rank?'
"I was awfully frightened over his
manner, but I simply held to the
ground that Lydia had a good heart
and was loyal to her unfortunate
friends, and that if hl wanted to lose
her by being imprudent and rousing
her anger I should feel that I had
given him due warning. He cooled
down a little, and my talk didn't do the
cause a bit of harm, for he simply
dogged Lydia's footsteps all the rest
of his visit, and when he went back to
Atlanta he sent her fully $50 worth of
roses. The major says I ought never
to have mentioned George Buckley's
name to him-that Governor Telfare is
a most dangerous man, with a violent
temper. He says he'd actually be
afraid to have the two men meet here,
but I wouldn't. Buckley is a brave
man, I've no doubt, lbut I'd venture
anything that he'd control himself un
der any circumstances."
When the two ladies had gone back
to the house and parted in the big hall
Miss Cosby turned into the parlor,
where our heroine sat at the piano,
idly running her hands over the keys.
"I declare, you are a lucky girl, Lyd
i," said Kitty.
"To have you with me, dear, in this
(uiet place?" smiled Lydia, looking up.
"No." The visitor bent over the
speaker. "Guess again." -
"rm not gipd at guessing. It's tire
some, like playing whist when one is
out of practice."
"Lydia, every girl in our set simply
went wild when we heard about the
marked attentions you were receiving
from Governor Telfare. Tonr know
there are piles and piles of mit'riage
able girls in the south and very, very
few young, unyoked governors."
"That's quite true," said Lydia, with
anoncommittal smile.
"It would be nice, dear," went on
Kitty, "to be the mistress of that man
sion in Atlanta and preside at every
function of state in the town. That's
about the nearest approach we make
fI a temoe I'dbym ner.
Ldydi bowedvtn er heds over the keyjs
and laughed merrily. "It wouldn't be
bad, would it-the Atlanta house, I
mean ?"
"I should say not." Miss Cosby was
tryig to probe the laugh.
"Look here, Kitty," Lydia said, sud
denly rising and laying her hands on
Miss Cosby's shoulders and pressing
them down firmly. "Take my advice
and turn in and have a good time while
you are here and don't waste a minute
fooling with mamma's plots. She's as
transparent as a pane of glass, and so
are you, darling. TransparenCy -is con
tagious. You used to be harder to see
through."
"'he idea!" Miss- Cosby said. "Why,
Lydia, you silly goose"- But she
seemed unable to defend herself against
the implied charge and could only're

WOBURN ABBEY.
A Futile Efrort to Fix the Date of Its
Construction.
The Duchess of Bedford, who died
in 1859, was rather weakminded, and
unhappily her educ.ation did little to
disguise the defects which nature had
imposed upon her. Her great dread
was to have a visitor at Woburn abbey
who would ask her hard questions
about the foundation and history of
the abbey. So if she had a savant in
the party she always asked a man of
higher rank to meet him, so that she
might not be taken in to dinner by
the savant. Once, as bad luck would
have it, she got Lord Stanhope, the
historian, who, though he had to take
her in to dinner, was none the less a
savant As soon as he sat down to
dinner he began the dreaded inquiries
about the date of the abbey. The poor
duchess, much fiustrated, said.
"I have a 'very poor head for these
historical things, but I will tell you all
I know. The founder was a crusader
who, fbding himself in great danger
in battle, vowed that if he got home
to Europe safe he would do anything
the pope told him. He got back safe
a~nd went to Rome, and the pope told
him to build a Cistercian abbey, r .,1
he built Woburn abbey. That's all I
know."
Lord Stanhope said, "That is exactly
what I wanted, for if you can tefl me
which pope it was I can approximately
fix the date."
'Oh," said the duchess, "I always
understood it xras the pope of Rome!"

Rev. Edward Hale, who is

a marriage in Boston.
After the ceremony the aged
clergyman proceeded to give the
young husband a piece of cold
and pertinent advice.
"I am sure," he said, "that
your marriage is destined to be
a happy one. But, happy, or un
happy, I urge you never to dis
cuss your wife in company; for
if you speak well of her you won't
be believed, and if you speak ill
you will."

Primitive Account Keeping..
Even now there are certain parts of
Britain into which the long arm of prog
ress has made bnt little headway, and
inthe north of Scotland the- old fash
ioned "tally" is the sole system of
"bookkeeping" understood by the in
habitants. The "tally" consists of a
fiat piece of wood upon which the farm
laborer records his day's work. Each
notch at the edge represents a- day's
toil, and half days are recorded by a
cut made in the fiat surface of the
wood. Overtime is represented by a
small round hole drilled in the "tally'
with a penknife. In his present state
of education it is likely that it 'will be
many years before the north Scottish
laborer improves upon the primitive
methods of his forefathers.

Mr. Green looked with a calm but

"What preparations have you made

"You know how my daughter has beer
brought up."
"Yes, sir," said the young man, witt

town there's not so much difference be
tween the Orthodox and the Meth
