Family Expenses.

a few days since the wife Of a wealthy
man went into grocery store where
most of theprovisions for the house were
bought. She went in considerable haste
to the proprietor and asked him to loan
her a dollar. Her husband, she said,
had gone down town and forgotten to
leave her any change, and she must have
a little immediately. She took the bill.
rolled it up and put it into her glove,
then in all undertone said: please
charge that as sugar. My husband
might not like it if borrowed money
The man said ':Certainlyr' and the
woman went out. A customer who was
standing at little distance but who
was concealed from the lady by pile
of tea chests smiled to himself and then
smiled at the grocer who came back to
finish filing his order.
Although the grocer said nothing, it
was we'll understood fact to the Gus
toner. as it is to many other people in
large cities, that this is not an uncom-
mon practice. Men who are liberal
with the families, as far as food and
clothes go, rarely give them a cent for
their own use. They will pay any rea-
sonable bill and many unreasonable
ones, but they pay them in checks and
overlook the bills themselves, then they
fancy they know what becomes of the
money. Such conduct is unwise. If
there is anything in the world that has
a tendency to drive woman to under
hand practices it is such lack of conf
dence On the part of her husband or
father.
A wise way is to make regular al
lowance for each member of the family.

mer OF 1857 he left this city. and In the fol-
lowing year went 10 Arkansas. In 1861
he was member of the convention which
seeded the State. He was elected United
States Senator in 1864, but refused TO take
his seat, because Arkansas was not re-
constructed. In 1874 he was a member OF
the constitutional convention, which
framed TIE constitution of Arkansas. In
force at the present time. subsequently
he has been d member OF three legisla-
lures.
Last summer he made no canvass for
the nomination for Governor by the De-
mocratic Gel vention. His opponent, how
ever. aid, who urged against him, that
he had been a Union man during the
war with bitter war record. How little
attention the people of Arkansas paid TO
that charge can be learned from the
fact that at the convention $40 out OF 62S
delegates voted for Mr.. Fishback. At the
popular election which followed he re-
ceived the largest majority given TO any
Governor for many years. His majority
was about 5000, and his plurality $1,000.

Benjamin Ryan Tillman the Reform"

nected with weli-known families of that
name in South Carolina and in Virginia.

took an active part In the struggle for
white supremacy under Wade Hampton.

Captain Tillman.
Experience in farming soon taught him
the defects of the system OF agriculture
and the hardships OF the farmers con-
Gition In the South. He saw that a radi
cal charge was necessary in the methods
OF productive industry. and hence in the
habits and training Of the Industrial COM
