SALT AND SUGAR BAGS.

brown Learns Something About
Their Household Uses.
say mother" said Letitia Brown,
we won't have any more salt bags /;
will we?"
NO more salt bagsY" said Mr..
brown to himself, having by chance
overheard Letitia's remark. 1t took
but little questioning to bring out In
formation on these points, and incl
dentally there was elected other bag
information, which, to Mr.. Brown, was
even more interesting.
Salt bags, it seems, are, In many
households, when empty, wasled out
ana used as dish cloths. But the
Brown family has given up housekeep-
ing and gone to boarding; it retains
lts apartment, just the same, but takes
lts meals In neighboring good board
Ing mousse. So naturally, they wouldn't
be buying any more salt.
Then Mrs. Brown said that, any
now, they hadn't been using salt bags
1or some time, because lately, while
salt is still put up in bags, they had
been buying salt put up In wooden
or In pasteboard boxes. They'd been
making their dish cloths lately, she
said, out of sugar bags. Sugar, it
appears, once never so put up, is now
quite commonly sold In bags.
Casually, Mrs. Brown mentioned an
other use of salt bags that was new
even to Letitia, who knew something
about salt bags. Mrs. Brown said that
once they had a servant who used to
take the salt bags when they were
emptled and open them out and wash
the marks out of them, and then for
economy's sake have them for hand
kerchiefs for her little brother
And yet there remained the fact
mildly bewailed by Letitia, that there
would be no more salt bags" for dish
cloths. Here Mr.. Brown wanted to
say to Lefty, "Well, what of it? Not
housekeeping any more, we shan't have
any dishes to wash and we shan't want
any dish cloths, salt bag or sugar
bag" But he didn't say these things,
for he didn't want to hurt Letitia's
feelings by showing her how little she
looked ahead, nor did he want to make
her feel worse by showing her how
much more logical his mind. He said
nothing, but just kept these things to
himself, but not without his usual mod
est consciousness Of superiority
