Mrs. Gould takes up in detail the

that most Of the charges are made
by discharged employees or others un-

An item of absorbing interest to

Mrs. Gould estimates bare living
expenses, outside Of travelling expens-
es or necessary contributions to char
ity, at more than $4,000 year. She
declares that although she had had in
charge the disbursement of about
$4,000 q year for the last ten years,
she is now in debt. her wardrobe held
for hotel bill and jewels to secure
money for their repair. She sug-
gests that the ss2O0,0O0 yearly allowed

court, is reasonable.
She shows that her household ex-
penses frequently for years at time

the expenses of the barn and stable
were about $4,000 year extra.
