STRIKING A BALANCE.
The Necessity Which Devolves on Womal
to Put a Good Face On a Bad Matter.

The Necessity Which Devo1ves on Woman
to Put a Good Face On Bad Matter.
To all women comes q time. sooner
or later. when. like treasurer OF .
bankrupt State, they have to produce a
budget, and often with very similar
result-namely, that OF having to put a
good face on bad matter.
The first thing to be done is to draw
out kind of estimate-house rent,
rates and taxes-so much; butcher,
grocer, baker, etc.. and so on through
all the items. The next thing is to
strike balance between expenditure
and income.
One horror on these occasions is the
house rent. However we may hide it
from ourselves-we do not from our
friends, though-the great majority of
us are over-housed, or, rather, over
rented. We all want to live in about
the same neighborhood, and we all
want to go into about the same So
ciety. 1t would be amusing, if it were
not rather disastrous. to see what peo-
pie calmly contemplate spending on
rent, apparently unaware that the size
and position Of ones house affects ones
expenses all along the line, to say moth
ing of rates and taxes. Ifpeople' smeans
are limited, they must cut. their
coat according to their cloth, certain
ly, and also remember (to continue the
sartorial metaphor) that, if the gar
ment is to have anything like wear in
it, it must not be scrimped in the turn
ings in; and this is just the difficulty
with the most of us. We make mag
nifcent estimates for the actual things
required in daily life. but we forget the
etceteras, with the inevitable result of
overturning our apparently well bal
anced total In short. we scrimp our
coat at the turnings to allow more
fashionable skirts or more graceful
sweep. and at the first strain away
goes the whole thing; and though you
may patch and darn and make it wear-
able again, the joy of it is gone for
ever.
It is foregone conclusion that you
can not economic by Indifference to
sanitation, therefore. if your means
are limited, you must offer up some OF
the fashionable position and decoration
of your abode at the shrine of your
impecuniosity. Although it is quite
true that it is all but impossible to keep
to the ancient seventh for ones rent,
yet the nearer one gets to that sum
the better it will be for ones budget

A Dusky Prince.

Several months ago the Crown Prince
of Bucknamago, Africa, came to Ar
kansaw. He was so attractive, so SUI
perior to any of the Arkansaw negroes,
that many plantation maidens fell in
love with him. He met the daughter
of Caleb Henderson, a wealthy old
negro of Jefferson County. The old
man was delighted to see his daughter
associate with Prince. He was of
royal blood himself, he thought, and
the Prince might make himself at home.
That was exactly what the Prince
wanted to do. He married the girl,
after having made satisfactory finan-
cial' arrangements with the old man. 1t
now transpires that the Prince is named
Buck Sanders, and that during nearly
all of his life he has worked on the
levee at st. Louis. TrdU-

BLUEFiSH AND BASS.

Exciting Sport Likely to Make y Fisher
mans Ears Tingie.
The skillful caster of the delicate
trout fly may turn up his nose at the
idea of any skill being necessary to
throw the heavy squid with which the
bluefish troller drags the surf for his
favorite fish, but if the trout fisher
man has never tried to put the squid
out to the proper distance in the sea, l
would like to bet him something that
his first attempts will take some of the
conceit out of him. Much practice is
necessary to throw the squid scientific
ally. and it is an altogether pretty
sight to see it shooting away on its
mission, from the hands of the expert
troller like a rocket through the air.
This surf-trolling for bluefish is ia
vorite method of angling with many
fishermen. and there is a peculiar ex-
citement and exhilaration about it. as
one stands waist deep in the surf that
surges around him, and feels the tug
