They Hurried Away.

1t was on Lake street, and they were an
old couple evidently from the country,
who were putting in a day enjoying the
free sights of the city, not the least of
these being the shop windows.
They had stopped in front of window
where a fine, porcelain lined bath, with
all attachments complete, together with
towels and soapdish to carry out the eff
feet, were displayed, and were gazing ad-
miringly at it.
''Ain't it fine, Jin?'' said the old lady,
in an awestruck whisper. "Do you s'pose
anybody ever washes themselves in them
fine things, really?"
81 dunno" was the answer. "But 1

window. Next, his vest followed suit,
and then, as he still perspired freely, he
relieved himself of collar, necktie and
cuffs, disposing these upon the top of his
desk. STOPPING to brush the dust from
his shoes, a suspender strap gave way and
after several Intellectual attempts to fasten
it, he took off these also and dropped them
upon the chair, preparatory to mending
them. This was too much for the old la
dy, who had watched him in horror strick-

she turned quickly away.

HOW TO ECONOMIC.
Never Buy Cheap Things Nor Things That
Are Not Really Needed.

Are Not Really Needed.
There is no falser economy than to
buy inferior goods, and this rule holds
good for food as well as for
clothes A good material looks well
to the end, and can be washed or
cleaned and made up again in various
ways. 1t is better to have one we'll
made dress of good material than two
or three badly-lnade of poor stuff,
which will look shabby and untidy
after wearing once or twice. When
busting or sweeping an apron should
always be worn, and for any very dirty
work it is good plan to change the
dress, and wear an old one kept entire
ly for that purpose.
In household matters there are hun
dreds OF ways in which economy can be
practiced. For instance, in any room
that is much used rug or strip of car
pet laid down near the door, where the
Qnost wear comes, will save the carpet
and make it last twice as long.
White tablccioths should always have
Ia Die napkins spread at the end where
the carving goes on, SO that in case of
any gravy being split only the napkins
need be washed instead of the entire
cloth.
In buying food always choose the
best. Inferior meat and poor groceries
are really no cheaper in the end, for the
small amount saved by purchasing
them is often expended twice over in
paying doctors bills and buying medi-
cine to cure ills. many of which are
caused by nothing but badly cooked,
inferior and indigestible food.
Good cooking is great help to econ
omy, and is an art which should be
more cultivated than it is, for to know
how to make the best of everything and
the most tasty way of using up all kinds
of scraps is by no means to be despised.
Never buy anything that is not really
needed just because you see it in shop
and it happens to be cheap. In buying
groceries it is far more economical to
buy fairly large quantities and store
them than to buy small quantities
whenever needed. Eggs can be bought
in the summer when they are cheap
and stored for winter use. and spices,
rice, oatmeal. dried fruits, peas, can
dies, etc, can be kept for a long time if
properly stored. Keep currants and
raisins and other dried fruits in jars or
! tins, with covers, where flies viii not
be able to get to them. Tea and coffee
should be stored in tin boxes or jars
with tightly fitting lids SO that the air
is quite excluded.
A very economical plan, more fire.
quently followed abroad than in Eng
land, is to have a stock-pot into which
all odd bits of meat and bone, veg
etables, and other odds and ends are
put, to be used for making soup. All
pieces of bread should be kept, made
crisp in the oven, powdered, and kept
in a tin ready for frying. Pieces of
cheese, too dry for eating, can be pow
dered and used for favoring macaroni
and other dishes to which cheese is an
improvement.
There are numberless ways in which
careful housewife can save money
without making any appreciable diff
ference in the comfort and well being
of the inmates of the house, and it is a
curious fact that the best cooks are
frequently the most communicable
