difficult to fully realize the value of
small SUMS. Little savings. if made al
at all. mast be made in personal expen
dllure. What is spent over the house
hold is generally needed, but the small
personal luxuries which cost so little
are not. And when any saying is mad e
IN this way the money should be put
aside and saved instead Of being mixed
with the spending fund, aud additions
made to it as frequently as possible ;
that will make you understand as soon
as anything what small economies
amount to. When money Is put aside
to be saved it should be put some place
where it cannot be directly got at-the
savings bank, for instance. The very
fact that little trouble and formula
has to be gone through with before 1t
can be obtained many a time prevents
its being spent when it certainly would

secure independence to ourselves is real
