The Cost Of Food.
Those who have made an exhaustive
study of the cost of food assure us that
this item ranges about the same in the
different markets of the country, al
though in some places one supply may
cost more and another less thar In q
place hundreds of miles away. Those
who have gardens of their own, or VINO
are able to buy directly from the farm
Of a neighbor, with nj intervening mid
dle-man and no ascending scale OF
profit from producer to consumer, may
live more cheaply than their friends VINO
possess no such advantage.
In the country, for instance, the only
money actually expended may be ialo
out for meat when the butcher makes
his weekly round with his cart. other
articles of food are raised on the farm,
and the thrifty housewife has Inc
chance to barter her eggs and butter In
the nearest town for other things that
she needs. Country jewellers should
live much better, all things considered,
than their city cousins. The latter, how
ever, need not go beyond their means II
they purchase with discretion and SUI
fer no waste in the household. In a
great city a visit to the market, here
or there, is a revelation of the COM
merce of the globe. Fruits, vegetables,
dairy products, meat, everything IN
splendid variety shows how interde-
pendent We are, and how swiftly trains
ply and steamers race across the sea,
that the world may be fed. Buyers
have only to choose from an abundant
and attractive bill of fare.
The crying sin of American house.
keeping is willful waste. The amount
Of good food that is daily thrown away
by people of limited means is positive
ly shocking. One housekeeper In ten
takes proper care of left-overs from the
table, and suffers nothing 70 be lost
through forgetfulness, or cast by a
thriftless maid into the garbage pail.
Inc average Ludlu uCoploCS "o wa
omies, but this is no reason why she
should not be taught to practice them.
The cost of living in a thousand homes
might annually be diminished by a
tenth without a single person In the
household mourning the slightest self
denial.
In a thousand homes, too, more
careful buying and more careful saw
ing would result in a gratifying sum
in the bank at the end of each twelve
month. If the cost of living is higher
than it once was, we must remem-
Der that the wage-rate is also higher
and that the country is mo- in the
least impoverished, but, on the con-
trary, exceedingly well-to-do. we
may share its prosperity if as individ-
uals we look out for waste.

The Item of Clothing.

A man who goes daily to business
must be comfortably clothed for his
work, we'll shod and provided with
outer garments that enable him to ap-
pear thoroughly respectable among his
associates. A good deal of success
may depend on the appearance a man
makes when going to and from the
place OF his work. A man whose
dress is obviously shabby and thread
bare is discounted unless being a mil
lionaire he can afford to look as poor
as poverty.
In ordinary circumstances the man
of the house must be well dressed, but
ready-made clothing of good quality
even in our extravagant country may
be purchased for cash at a fair price.
Granted that a good cut and good ma
terial are selected and adequate care
taken Of the garments a man need not
be troubled overmuch about the cost
of his clothes. Wife and children are
well dressed or badly dressed, not ac-
cording to the amount of money spent,
but according to the taste. skill and
economy of the mistress of the house.
It is rather amusing to compare notes
on this subject. Mrs. A. will dress four
children very comfortably on the same
sum that Mrs. B. spends on two, but
the first is a good manager, and the
second has little foresight and nan
agement. Both would be gamers II
they understood that cash customers
always save more than those who keep
running accounts in the shops, and II
they likewise understood that there are
times and seasons when q housewife
