HOW TO ECONOMIC.

1T is most difficult to economize, and
the most difficult part of it is to know
in what direction to practice economy"
said the wise woman. "Often those
who do it will carry their economy to
100 great sn extreme. The right way
to do it is to get along without extras.
and use just what is necessary for
every day comfort. 1t does not mean
that there should not be enough, nor
any deprivation of necessary comforts.
There are women who, when they
economize, Twill do so at the wrong end
She comes to the conclusion that when
ever she does not buy anything or cuts
off an item of expense she is economic
ing. She will attend to the grocer's
bills. That is well, but sometimes she
will expend 25 cents' worth of time to
save cents. Then the same woman
may economizs on her luncheon. She
sill convince herself that eating at
midday is mere habit aud will dis
pense with it. Sbe finds it all the easier
20 do because her husband is not homo
at that meal, and, OF course, she does
uot want him to 60 without enough to
eat. She thinks tnat he needs more
food thar she does.
1.-THE woman who practices this sort
Of economy will find that the depriva-
lion impoverishes herself and her child
reu mentally aud physically. Often in
the long run it is more expensive in
actual cash, for the doctor has to be
called in.
"The right way to econom'ze is in
extravagances, not in necessities"
