PEN NAMES OF WOMEN WRITER'S
Origin of George Eliot"-Why Mrs

Miss Gregg, who is known as "syd

1t might be interpreted as either g
masculine or feminine designation
"Grier' is a Shetland name, and a.
that time she was much interested II
those far away isles. "C'' was insert
ed to make the name look natura
surname.
Mrs. Harrison's reason for conceal
ment as Lucas Malet" was that she
did not think it right to trade OF
the Kingsley name" lest she should
do it discredit. She therefore chose
the "surnames of her grandmothel
and great-grandmother, both women o.
remarkable intelligence and character.
The pseudonym sof George Eyer
ton" adopted by the lady now Mary
Chavelta Golding- Bright, also springs
from family associations. Her moth

and George Bynon" was her first dis
guise. But the name of Byron haC

dropped for that of "Egerton," thu

band. Under the distinctive comb

"Etheromania continues to increase,
and etheromanes keep devising novel
ways of taking the baneful narcotic
The ether ball is new and popular

How to Shoot with a Revolver.

To begin sighting along the barrel
Of siXshooter, as In target gallery
practice is handicap to the man
who wants to learn the art at its best
The hand and eye, of course, work
together with all weapons and in all
eombats but there is a difference be-
tween the eye-general and the eye
particular. The best form of boxing or
fencing-that is what the use Of the
six-shooter means. You point your
fist or your foil instinct You cannot
help pointing your finger directly and
straight at any object, no matter how
hard you try. Yet surely you do not
sight down your finger. In the best
work with the siX-shooter you point
with the barrel just as you point with
your finger, or really, you point with
your wrist and forearm, and the six.
shooter is the finger Of your wrist, the
engthening of your arm. That is the
theory and creed of the six-shooter.-'

That the scoffers and cross-question.

illustrated at recent meeting at
which Mrs. Borrmann Wells was de-
livering an address. A man had asked
several questions, and in each instance
received a prompt reply, His final
query was:
why don't you get married?'
There is one serious objection to
your suggestion" replied Mrs Wells

earn so much as you think-25 cents a

though of course some of the smarter

many of those little fellows that you
