THINK BEFORE You SPEND.-Do you
really need the article? 1t is probably
pretty dress or some piece of furniture,
but what solid benefit will it be to you?
Or it is some luxury for the table that
you can do as well without. Think,
therefore, before you spend your money.
Or need now carpet. new couch, new
chairs or new dress; you are tempted to
buy something little handsomer than
you had at first inteeded' and, while you
hesitate, the dealer says to you: ''Tis
| only trife more, md see how far pref
tier it is!'' But, before you purchase.
stop to think. Will you be better wear
hence, especially in old age, for having
squandered your money? Is it not wiser
to lay by something for rainy day? All
these luxuries will only crafty you for
the moment. You soon tire of them,
and their own permanent effect is to con-
sumo your means. It is by such little
extravagances-notm much separately, but
ruinoua in the aggregate the great
majority of families are kept compare
