alfhough she was not disposed TO deny
hersslf comforts. yet she felt that il
was desirable TO procure them At >
fair price.
The tms It which this convsrsa-
ton took place was ct the commence
nent Of the second year Of their mar
ried life.
The first step which NJ Newton
took on accepting the charge OF the
household expsnsss. was to institute
the practics OF paying cash for oil ar
ticies that came under her depart
ment- She aeoordingly called on the
butcher ana inquired

And you could afford. suppose,

customers would give me chance to
DO So.
I will set them an example then.
said Mrs. Newton. Hereafter what
ever articles are purchased of You will
be paid for. on the spot. and. We shall
expect you to sell az reasonably as
you can.
This arrangement was also made
with others, who. it is scarcely need
ful to say. were very glad to enter
into the arrangement. Ready money
is the great support OF trade. and a
cash customer 10 worth two who pur.
chase on credit.
Fortunately Mrs. Newton had, .
small supply of money by her. which
lasted till the first monthly installment
from her husband became due. Thus
che was enabled to carry out her cash
plan from the beginning.
There were other ways in which
careful housekeeper is able TO limit
expense which Mrs. Newton did not
overlook. With an object in view she
was always on the lookout to prevent
waste. and 70 get the ful; value OF
whatever was expended.
The result was beyond her antici-
pat'ons. At the close OF the year on
examining her bank book, for che had
regularly deposited whatever money
she had not had occasion to use in one
OF these institutions, she found that
she had $loO besides reimbursing her,
