THRIFT AND WEALTH.
p@~@%&&~~~@~@>S@@@~a@~S


French housekeeping may be de
scribed, says the author of Home
Life in France" as the glorification of
simplicity, supreme economy of
time, outlay and worry In France the
furnishing and fitting up of house
is done for once and for all. English
and American households spend more
upon their homes i'll twelvemonth
than French families of the same
standing spend for that purpose dur
ing the whole of their welded lives.
Thrift is always and everywhere the
first consideration. Fuel is econo-
miZed in France to an extent to which
even poor families in this country are
not accustomed. When French
woman pays visits or goes abroad
shopping, she lets her fire go out, and
relights it on her return. Many wo-
men fairly well-off make wooden
shawl and foot warmer do duty for
fire, perhaps, when it is freezing in
doors.
Money in France Is on no account
whatever to oe lightly parted with;
absolute necessity is the only excuse
for outlay.
But there is a shining side to this
frusality. French men and women do
not affect sumptuous style for the sake
of outsiders, and their unpretentious
ness imparts dignity mere wealth
cannot bestow. The following incl
dent is illustrative Of French stand
ards:
The author, Miss Betham- Edwards,
had been spending few days with
a French friend, widow of an officer
at Pornic On returning to Nantes
she took a third class ticket, to the
establishment Of her hostess
Il always travel first class" she ex-
claimed. after little chat about the
matter Of trains, adding, but do not
travel often. and | am rich | have
an income Of two hundred pounds a
year
Probably she never spend two-thlrds
of It. In this supreme sense the vast
majority Of French folk are rich, .be-
yond the dreams Of avarlce"
