It’s easy enough
—the Ball corset. That’s be-
cause it has coils of fine wire
springs in the sides. They
clasp the figure closely, but
yield to every motion.
They “give”, but they come
back. So does your money
—if you’ve worn a Ball cor
set two or three weeks, and
find that you don’t like it.

STORY OF THE GOWER-NORDICA
ROMANCE AND ITS SAD END.
Mme. Xordlrn Woe a Maine Girl Known
ne M1m Lilian Norton—Mr. Gower Wee
Aleo from Maine—Sketch of Die Career.
Ilia Phcuomeital Success In Telephony.
Lilian Norton, the famous ringer,
granddaughter of Campmeeting John
Allen, wan bom in Farmington, Me.
Her father, Edwin Norton, was a pros
perous fanner in that town. Both her
father's and mother's families were ex
cellent singers. Lilian attended the
Conservatory of Music in Boston to re
ceive a musical education. The excel
lence of her voice introduced her into
the concerts of Gilmore, where she took
a prominent part. Thus a way was
opened for her to visit Europe and a
more complete musical education.
Accompanied by her mother Bhe went
to Italy, and was placed under the dis-
pipline of the most accomplished musical
teachers of Europe. Having finished
her coarse of study and become notable
for her power of song, she received an
invitation with liberal salary to sing in
the Royal opera at St. Petersburg. She
went with her mother to Russia.
The manager of the Grand opera of
Paris was so pleased with her singing
that he gave her an invitation to become
the prirna donna of the highest seat of
song, and by liberal pecuniary rewards
sought to obtain her release from her
St. Petersburg engagement, but the
Rnsrinns preferred her voice to the
money offered. After Bhe had completed
her engagement in tho north, sho ac
cepted the overtures made her in Paris
and made an engagement to sing in the
Grand opera.
THE MARRIAGE.
Daring her residence in Italy her name
was changed to Lilia Nordica to snit the
Italian style of pronoancintion. It was
dnring her appearance as the great
American ringer in the Grand opera
that she becomo acquainted with her
second cousin, Frederick Allen Gower,
grandnephew of Campmeeting John
Allen. Ho said: “It was not a coso of
love at first sight, for it was full seven
minutes before I became enchanted with
tho lovely singer.”
The history of this young man is fully'
as romantic as is tho success of Mme.
Nordica. Ho was the son of the Rev.
H. B. Gower, a Baptist clergyman, who
died in Farmington, Mo., leaving a
widow and three sons, tho eldest 10 and
tho youngest 6 years old. As the fam
ily were left In destitute circumstances,
Frederick, tho second son, was kindly
received and freely supported for a year
at tho Abbott family school. Ho had
given proof of his activity as an infant
by leaping from his nnrse's arms, before
ho was a month old, through an open
window without breaking his neck.
As a scholar he was more noted for
vivacity than qniet study.
After a year’s sojonrn at the family
school Frederick and his brothers, by
the energy and ability of their mother,
were gathered into a family home in
Providence, R. I. The two elder broth
ers were fitted by their mother to enter
Brown university, and wero supported
by her at collcgo till thoy graduated.
George, the eldest brother, became a
lawyer, and has served by repeated elec
tions as clerk of tho Rhode Island assem
bly. •
Frederick entered upon the profession
of journalism, and became city editor of
The Providence Journal. He wrote to
Professor Bell, the inventor of the tele
phone, to deliver a lecture at Providence
on the now invention. By invitation
young Gower went to Boston to assist
Bell in tho preparation of his lecture.
MR. GOWER'S SUCCESS. AND END.
His active and ingenious intellect be
came intensely interested in the new in
vention. He contrived to simplify the
machinery and to increaso tho intensity
of the magnetic power, nring one instead
of - two batteries, and introducing cir
cular instead of horseshoe magnets, with
other devices now used in tho Gower-
Bell telephone.
Having obtained patents and estab
lished the Bell Telephone company,
Gower went to France and formed a
telephone company there, of which he
was president, with a salary of <35,000.
He also obtained patents in Germany
and England. In England a company
was formed, bnt the English govern-
ment took the telephone, as they had the
telegraph, aa a part of their postoffice ser
vice, purchasing of the company a mill
ion dollars' worth of telephones for their
“The Awakening of the South."
Disc listing the Industrial condition
of tbe country, the New York Tri
bune touthfutly states that “the'great
fact of the present Industrial era la
tbe awakeulog of the South." And,
continuing, it says: “Forforty years
before tbe war,on account of slavery,
that section took iio part In the man
ufacturing anu mining progress of
tbe country.” And for nearly twen
ty years after there were no sign* of
activity, but about 1385 there were
Indications of a new order of things.
“For more than sixty years, by a
generation of slavery and a genera
tion of war aDd Its stupefying memo
ries, the enterprise and tbe labor of
tbe South bad been paralyzed. Half
tbe country stagnant and torpid,
having to be laboriously lugged along
by tbe reel, was a heavy burden.
But when tbe vast labor force of the
South, as yet unused to tbe wages
obtained In tbe mines and manufac
tures, began to employ therein, tbe
effect was quickly felt. More than
six years ago some of tbe shrewdest
Northern cotton spinners bad begun
to put all iheirsurplus resources into
Southern mills, foreseeing that cheap
labor there would presently make
the production of the coarser grades
of goods at the North comparatively
unprofitable, as early as 1883 iron
and coal mining and Iron manufuc
turlng In Virginia, West Virginia,
Alabama and Teunessee began
enlist large capital and to challenge
attention. More recently wool man
ufaetures have sprung up, and others
of countless variety. Tbe effect has
been to bring the cheap labor of the
South Into direct competition with
tbe more Intelligent and better paid
labor of the North, sud now the re
suits are felt on »large scale, and by
thousands of workers and employers.
Many hundred Northern works are
closed or waiting uow because the
owners have not yet learned on what
terms to divide with the South tbe
work to he done.
The Industrial interests of the
whole country, says the Tribune,are
In atiansition period, and the indca-
triea that can be operated by the un
skilled labor of tbe South must in
evilably settle there. This transition
Is unavoidably one of sacrifice to
many Northern manufacturers who
•ee their business drifting from them;
but the Tribune adds: “Those who
stupidly sit on tbelr antiquated and
idle machinery, refusing to take tbe
etepa to extend and Improve their
ntanufacture, will fall behind In the
race irretrievably. But the transi
tion Is advancing rapidly. . In hun
dreds of works at once the re-organl-
zation and reconstruction needful
for long strides In Industrial progress
are going on.” In this transition,
which the Tribune admits will center
alt the coarser manufactures of cot-
son, wool, IroD, etc., in tbe South,
the consolation which It offers to tbe
manufacturers of the North Is that
they will be forced into making fine
goods and using morn skilled labor,
and In the end reap larger profits
than out of the lower grade of goods
now produced. Very true; but the
Tribune omite to say that the South
will rapidly develop the manufac
ture of fine goods and have jnst as
great advantages then as it now hat
In the production of tbe coarser
goods.

S. A. M.'ROUTE.
After a brief acquaintance these two
American celebrities were united tn
marriage, and Mme. Nordica was re
leased from her engagement at the
Grand opera. She came with her hus
band to America.
Their married life was not a happy
one. For sufficient cause Mme. Nordica
toed for a separate maintenance, bnt
never for a divorce. While the suit was
In progress he left suddenly for Paris,
where he had been deeply engaged study
ing out an invention to employ magnet
ism in the control of balloons. This he
considered the greatest invention of tbe
age, both for military and commercial
purposes.
To test the efficiency of some of his
plans he undertook in a balloon, alone,
to croes the Straits of Dover. Since Ms
disappearance from the view of the
spectators who witnessed his ascension
be has never been seen.—Lewiston Jour
