WOMEN AS SAVERS.
MANY or THEM DO NOT UNDERSTAND
THE TRUE ECONOMY.

Tho Saving That Is a Real Loss In the
End-Thcre Are Extremes In Both Di-
rections, but the influence of the Misery
Spirit Is What Makes the World Poor.
Lessons In money saving for the Ameri-
can girl, of whom it has been observed
that sho would take lessons in dying If she
could, have been suggested as desirable
addition to college curriculum or homo
training. One improvement might be
made even to this admirable idea-that
large class Of American mothers might
simultaneously receive lessons in money
spending.
Doubtless great national characteristic
Is extravaganza. Yet, reckoning loss by
something beyond dollars and cents, it
Is possible to lose quite as much by the
saving mania, with which some women
folk arc possessed, as by the thoughtless
and thriftless wives and daughters, of
whom so much moro Is said nowadays.
The woman who acknowledges herself q
spendthrift, but understands the science OF
spending money, will often make ends
meet" on notably smaller allowance than
the woman who prides herself on saving.
The Boston Herald tells of woman
who bought for herself two new and natty
shirt waists early in the season, much to
the horror Of her economical neighbor,
who had an old black silk one, worn shiny,
and the sleeves of which were beyond re-
demption. But she was planning to be
very economical-times had been so hard
so she washed the silk of the old waist,
after ripping 1t up and took q small piece
into town to match 10.
She needed only enough for new sleeves.
Having procured the required amount,
which is not small, according to the die
home, stopping to have little chat with
her extravaganza neighbor on the way and
taking pains to let her know what feats
she was about TO accomplish.
But, alas, when she came to look over
the old silk, she found that really she ought
to have new underarm pieces and new
back She gave little sigh. but consoled
herself with the fact that she could have
new fronts and use the old ones for the
new back. So she set to work. But some
how, although she had dono her best, the
old silk looked shiny and shabby when
combined with the now, and with sad
heart she made third investment of silk,
undid all her carefully basted and fitted
work and put in backs Of new CLOTH So
at last she had an all new waist-with
what results?
Tho back had been cut q little too mar
row between tho shoulders, which made
tho seams draw conspicuously, and the
sleeves were uncomfortably tight across
the elbow, as result of which the waist
has long since come to repairs, caused by
fraying, and at best can only be worn fol
rainy days and mornings.
And how about the extravaganza neigh

''unwrinkle'' by hanging up awhile, and
now they arc both not only presentable,
but they are still neat fitting and stylish,
as they will be during all the season, for
street wear.
Side by side with the families who 1.-Two
up to every cent of their income rank
those equally mistaken and much moro
unhappy households that will not acknowl-
edge the existence Of their income. Leav-
ing money out of the question, however,
tho ways in which women save where they
should spend are happily past tho under
standing of mon. The inspection of a
household not infrequently reveals the
woman whose wedding gifts included the
handsomcst of cut glass and the daintiest
of napery using sleazy tablecloths, cheap
glass and plated ware, not because she
does not love the flne things, but because
she docs and is Saving" them. She
means boarding them for the cheap graft
fication of exhibiting them to admiring
friends In all tho spotlessness and shine of
disuse or tho deserved modification of
having the children gaze, open eyed, and
make embarrassing remarks apropos of the
unaccustomed splendor when it is brought
out for company.
This housekeeper also has carpets too
good for the sunlight and silk quilts fold
cd away, because patchwork is quito good
enough for the family, and books that are
too good to be handled by the children,
whose literature, 1t seems, must bo chosen
with regard to the value Of the covers
| rather than what they contain.
Returning to tho subject Of clothes, all
| womankind may witness to her weakness
| for saving good clothes until, through
| changes In fashion, circumstance or the
| taste of the owner, they become useless
before they have fairly been worn. AL.
most as many "best black silks" for OK

closet as by actual wear.

And what shall it profit? Like money,
all these things arc primarily made to
use. 1t is the existence OF miscfs that
makes the world poor. Not that there is
no other side to the question. There is al.
ways tho other extreme, but unnecessary
and injudicious economy is wealth for
some one else, and the old cpitaph still
reads true in its secular as we'll as its re-

Plantain in Cultivated Fields.

The plantain weed was called by the
Indians ''the white mans footstep, as
it was most abundant in or near hard
trodden paths, and not much else
where. 1t is especially abundant in
places whore poultry is kept Some
entomologists claim that an insect
parasite destroys it in the field, but the
parasite is itself destroyed around
mans dwelling by poultry. A further
reason why plnntain does not grow in
fields is that it is plant hardy enough
when grown alone, but easily
smothered when growing surrounded
by clover or other plants. 1t usually
