don't intend giving you any fig

for peoples tastes differ. Some
would be content TO live in twelve

table; others would prefer twenty
dollar house, and live on palmer food.
There is no trouble about man
and wife living very comfortably on
one thousand dollars year, if the
wife has any practical cense. A fool
or sloven can't do it. "How is a
man going to find such a woman
out" I hear some readers exclaim,
very easily" The fool ,wiIl 1etray

any sensible questions on this subject

An untidy girl generally has dirty
