This is theway
with the Ball corset: if you
want ease and shapeliness,
you buy it—but you don’t
keep it unless you like it.
After two or three weeks’
wear, you can return it and,
have your money.
Comfort isn’t all of it
though. Soft Eyelets, and
"bones” that can’t break or
kink—Ball’s corsets have
both of these. .*

UlMI Club.
A queer dob waa once established In
London, under the .title ol Silent club.
Too members were bound to express
themselves at all club meetings, m far as
possible, without, words. The tiret rule
of the club was, “The members of this
academy shall think ranch, wriuflittle,
and be as mute os they can.”
On one occasion a new candidate ap
plied for admission, lint the members
were limited ai d all vacancies filled. A
meeting was called, the candidate was to
be Introduced, and the president was to
announce his decision. When the geu-
tlemaa edtered the members, who were
all his friends, were us much di.sa;>{>omt-
ed us he that be was to be refused. As
he upproached the president rose and
6ileutly banded him a enp ,.f water, e.
full that u single drop would Imve made
it overflow.
The applicant perfectly understood
what the president meant, but he was
courageous and quick witted. Without
speaking, be took from his button hole a
single roee and laid it gently on top of
the water. He laid it on so softly that
not a drop was displaced, and handed it
hack to the president witli a bow.
With one consent the mem tiers up
piauded. They resolved to put their rule
nside, and to admit tl,email who showed
them that he could ornament their so
ciety without linrtir,': it.
Thun the man thanked them in
equally curious way. Whrii the tegiater
was handed him to Is- Kign,-.| he wrote
•below hi* namo the imml.vr oHhe elnh
members—100. He added U fure it a 0,
making it 0100 Underlie,,;h he wrote.
Their value will Ik- the same."
The umn was so modest I hat the Presi
dent complimented liim iniuiediately by
rubbing out the 0 and substituting the
figure 1. This made llie number 1,100.
Underneath he wrote, "Their value will
be increased eleven times.”
These ingenions people must have de
voted a great deal of time and thought
to avoid using their tongues.—Harper's

A, m.flxafed Countenance.
Many people who would scarcely no
tice an armless or legless mffu will In
stantly detect and remark on any blem
ish of the human face, and dive into all
sorts of (peculations as to its cause and
attendant circumstances. If you doubt
this assertion become possessed of a dis
colored optic and note how much atten
tion it will invite. A’blaok eye is gen
erally avoidable, but blotches, pimples,
and other scrofulous and eruptive marks
steal upon us without warning, and am
frequently the first intimation of the
fact that our blood is going wrong. A

Fay of School Teachers.
The question of teachers' salaries is
one that is always moro or less agitated.
In Scotland it becomes of graro import,
as settling the question whether it is
possible or proper for a man teacher to
marry. The majority of opinions have
settled that (400 is tho minimum, though
this questiou was started by a few who
thought that (000 was tho lowest limit
in which marriage was feasible. In the
meanwhile in New York city the school
board has recently decided that it is un
just to the teachers and a disgrace to the
city to allow'womon who have taught
fourteen consecutive years to receive
less than (750, and that after January
next they shall receive this amount.
This applies to 859 women.
In Massachusetts a short time ago a
girl who was a normal graduate had had
charge for a year of one of those country
schools, part intermediate, part gram

lower floor, and had given entire satis

erything was running smoothly when
the girl was taken ill. Sho received at
the time ten dollars per week. No other
woman substitute being found to take
charge during her absence, the commit
tee engaged a man at fifteen dollars

In a Sheffield church the other day a
marriage ceremony came to an abrupt
and altogether onlooked for termination,
it was the fault of tho would bo bride
groom, aud most pooplo will say in los
ing his bride he met Ills deserts.
Tho ceremony went on right enough
till the clergyman, addressing himself to
the woman, put the quostion whether
site would have the man to be her hus
band, “to love, honor and obey."
At the mention of the word “obey,'
the bridegroom ejaculated, ‘Til make
thee."
“Are we married yet?" asked the wom
an of the clergyman.
“No, yon nro not,” ho replied.
“Then we Bhall not be,” she said, and
thereupon she left tho church.
The man protested that it was too late,
but she heeded him not, and his discom
fiture was made none the less when the
parson told him that he tlionght she had
acted very sensibly.—London Tit-Hits.
