The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1897-05-30

There is a very charming family in New
York where the subject of an income for
the son and daughter is arranged most
satisfactorily for all concerned, says the
New York Times. The two young people
have inherited, or have acquired from
their environment, many delightful char
acteristics, and perhaps may be called I'M
usually clever and weH-bred specimens of
young manhood and womanhood. That is
what the parents consider them, at any
rate
The two are now abroad together com
pleting their education and cultivating
their respective talents. AS far as finances
are concerned, they are absolutely indie
pendent, and this is how it is managed.
At the beginning of their financial year
the father in New York goes to his banker
and deposits to the credit each OF his son
and daughter a certain sum of money,
which is to last them the entire year 1t
is a comfortable sum- but not extrava-
giant, when it is considered that they must
pay their tuition, board and for their
clothes from it during that time. 1t is
possible that they might be called upon
TO economic with it. At all events,
whichever way it may be, il is all the
money they will have for the entire twelve
months.
do you mean to say that this money
is TO be subject to the order of your son
and daughter?" asked the astonished
cashier at the bank when the first deposit
was made. why, | know young people
who would have a grand time and spend
all that money in three days"
We'll returned pater famlias COM
placenty, IF my children do that, they
know what they win have to expect; they
will support themselves the remainder of

But Notwithstanding his apparent COM
plaisance, IL the money should be used un-
| wisely, the hearts of these exceptional
| parents would be sadly wrung. An incl
| dent emphasizing this fact occurred dur
ing the college days of the young people
/ when a similar arrangement was made
| The money for the son was placed In a
bank, in town TO which the college was

| tions of the green-eyed monster, was not

AZ any rate. the mother az home was
hlled with horror and dismay one day at
| receiving a note from the relative which
