Live on the tnstallment Plan

"One of the curious business customs
here" says a City of Mexico correspond
ent of the Boston Herald, lis that of
paying for things on the 'abono.' or In
stallmcnt, plan. The great shops carry
tens of thousands of accounts. which are
always being added to by fresh charges
and as continually being decreased by
the payment of the monthly 'abonos.
From your cradle to your coffin you can,
if you have any sort of credit, so through
life on the installmcnt plan. This is a
city full of government employees, like
Washington, and they live. move and
have their being on the installment prn-
ciple. They pay their rent or board
monthly and hand in a certain amount to
their tailor shoemaker, habcrdasher, jew
elcr etc. If they are married men. their
wives call around to the dry goods shops
monthly and make payment 1t is a
custom so universal that women of the
highest social rank have passbooks at the
big dry goods shops and send their in
stallments in every 30 days"

through he paused to see the Horncm
entry and blandly asked to see the book

down the full catalogue price and carried
it home.
The catalogues for the London district

Little Economics.

Teach the children not to waste tri1es,
which they often throw away without
thought, and which if saved might be of
use to others, if not to themselves. Wrap
ping paper. pieces of Irvine, odds and
ends of various kinds may do service a
second time if put away until the need
for them arises The habit of economy is
one that ought to be cultivated, for care
full saving makes lavish giving possible.
boarding is not a vice of childhood, nor
should it be encouraged, but the wise

1t is evident that there will be no ef
fective opposition to the admission OF
Oklahoma and Indian Territory to the
Union as a single state. A canvass OF
the committees on Territories in both
House and Senate shows decisive ma
jority in favor of that proposition. But
the effort to admit them as two states is
not so favorably received. and its ad
vocates will have only themselves TO
blame if their present opposition to the
single state proposition Causes a pro
longation Of the territorial status. Sta
