How to Save.

The way to save, the Ledger tells us,
is to begin with the little matters-and
begin at once. No one ever made his
way from poverty to riches who scorned
economy in small things, and could not
comprehend the value of single cent.
The poor man, who would get ahead pc
cuniarily, must learn to save cent after
cent-one at time, if he can do no more
till he gets a hundred of them, and so
hasa dollar, is wise and noble thing for
himto do. Having thus actually saved his
first dollar, he will have acquired with
it a power of self~denial and tenacity
OF purpose which will enable him to save
one dollar after another till he gets
hundred. And then he can save
on indefinitely, and become indepen-
dent in fortune.
"But," says some one who has lived
all his life without saving, chow am
I to save. Ny habits are fixed. How
can I learn to lay by something for old
age?"
You mustdo as to money matters what
certain ancient school of philosophers
did as to morals. Those old sages used,
every night, to review their actions for
the day, and see what they. ought not to
have done, and what they might have
done better of the things which it had
been necessary for them to do. So,
too, must you, every night, review the
outlays of the day, and see what you
have spent that you ought not to have
spent, and how you might have goi
more economically whatever it was ne
cessary for you to obtain. Any one who
faithfully makes such review of his
expenditures will be apt to discover
many opportunities for retrenchmen
and reform" And then if he will, ht
can at once begin to save, and may &C
quire economical habits which vii
secure his future prosperity, ft
