the Feminine Brain In Some Matters.
When hard times come women are far
more ingenious than men In the matter OF
cutting down expenses. At all events they
do not seem to consider the luKuries 30
necessary TO existence - men count them,
and they never hesitate 10 eliminate the
various little items Of life that take the dol
lars out Of pockets insidiously.

there have been rows Of empty chairs and

Housekeepers have observed that since

have gone down also, as employers have
given their cooks and housemaids the

carries 10 regard to everything elss she
wears as well.
Doing without thing is really one Of
the simplest methods Of saving and one
that women understand. A man will plan

the economy will prove failure.
