Pinching ParsinOny.

If is well and right to be economical,
for economy is at the base of saving
and comfort and independence. Many
q housewife has wasted the substance
OF her husbands clearings, and many
another one has been the can of en-
abling him, perhaps forcing him, to
lay by something for a rainy day. The
pride Of the thrifty housewife who
boasts that nothing is lost under her
administration of domestic expenditure
and consumption, is familiar to ell.
Every scrap and shred is utilized by
her, and she rivals the inventiveness OF
manufacturers in converting wastes
into serviceable use. Poor, hard
working men owe it to their wives
economy that their little homes are
their own; while others struggle along
hopelessly in the effort to get a home,
against the extravagances Of their
wives.
But economy is not pinching parsi-
mony. Make no mistake about this.
The good housewife who is doing her
best to make both ends meet and, If
possible, to AVE Q little out of her hus-
bands earnings, is not to bc COMPOUNDED
with the one who is endeavoring to
pinch something out Of the existence
of her family and herself. The one
will keep her family we'll. but not
waste; the other will try to prevent
goodness from going into life.
An old man worth $4,000 was de-
clining in weakness to the grave, and
had been ordered by his physician to
take y little wine. aThis Is rich living
for me-" he said ~regretfnlly, - he was
slipping the wine and eating . cracker;
and he made sure that not q drop re-
manned in the glass to be lost. Here
was an economical spirit turned into
parsimony; and q life that had been
industrious and useful, was no doubt
p~rematurely ended by its pinching
character.
Savings made at the expense Of
starving the body and mind are too
dearly bought They may be Of serv-
ice to children and their posterity, but
the sacrifice that creates them has no
defense.
There was . time when parsimony
did not look rs bad Ms it nov does. Il
had almost an excus in . day Of scar
city and poverty, of high prices and
small earnings. But the people who
need to resort TO absolute parsimony
nowadays are few, and those people
are usually the most wasteful and, con-
sidering their means, the most extrav-
agant. Tho day Of comfort and luxury
has come to most people who would
avail themselves Of il.
A pinched.up existence is hardly IN
apology for keeping soul and body to-
gether, and . person who pinches his
body and soul not only acts like . tres
passer upon the domain Of life. but by
his conduct endeavors TO make himself
. trespasser. Good Housekeeping.
