In conclusion, Mr.. P1gott says:
These estimates do not include any du-
plication nor many items of expenditure
proposed in the bills named, nor do they in
cude salaries of the thousands upon thou
sands of officials to be appointed under
their provisions. As the total estimated
money of the world, including paper, gold
silver. copper, brass and iron tokens does
not exceed sl0 100, 0O0, 900, 1t appears that
the amount of money called for by the bills

WHAT'S WORSE THAN POVERTY

1t comes hard for the woman of
small means and luxurious tastes to
keep within her income and abreast
with the times, but a little sound
sense in the way of finding out short
cuts to economy will work wonders.
The oma who has learned to make
a good appearance on next to nothing
becomes an object of envy to her less
fortunate sisters. 1t is largely a ques-
ton of investigation, of watching sales,
of shopping promptly, of making a dol
lar buy a dollars worth Of goods. And
only that severe teacher, experience,
will teach all this. A woman can be
dignitied, I'VE if she is poor, nor
should she feel hat because poverty
has flung it's Somber cdOak about her
she should draw herself from the poor
sunshine of the world or the kindly
friendship of her friends, a the Cips
natl Enquirer.
Too many ONE are inclined. when
poor, to withdraw into a shell, snail
fashion, and become grabbed and pow
e~rty-spoiled. Poverty is not the great
est of crimes, as many suppose. There
are lots Of other things worse than that
and wealth is not the Alpha and One
ga of happiness.
The woman of fine nature will accept
this fact gracefully, and by her exam
| pie help many a disheartened woman
to look on the bright side Of life, to
look her finances squarely in the face
and avoid laying out her money in un-
necessary expenditure. BY a bit of
forethought a small sum of money can
work wonders, as the active, tine-na-
tured woman who has learned it all
| well knows.
