Holiday Clubs Abroad.

These are great days In Scotland. The
holiday clubs that flourish in Glasgow
and other cities are paying out and
dressmakers and miliners not TO speak
of tradesmen that cater to the unorna-
mental sex. are alert to gain share
Of the money that working people have
been saving for months. a bit at time.
For. while the summer was far in the
future. men and women employed In q
certain establishments Clyde shipyard,
or a jam factory, for example-chose
one Of their number banker and agreed
TO pay in to him or her a penny or more
a week. in order 10 provide themselves
vacation funds. Some contributors soon
lost courage and ceased to save. Others
boarded more than the penny. When
one Of these clubs dissolved the other
day, the most frugal member drew ST.
and the horrible example OF wasteful-
ness emerged with forty-three cents.
The custom of vacation on salary IS
slow to be taken up abroad. and in
many instances the supporters OF the
holiday clubs. making holiday, as they
must at their own cost, would have no
money TO spend If they did not adapt TO
their purpose the familiar old fashion
of the Goose Club, which by slow ac-
cretions of a few pence week eventuany
yielded the Christmas dinner. To the
credit of their sagacity they have done SO.
and though in some instances the out
come suggests that Scotch thrift Is rather
an individual than a racial trait, that
does not weaken the force OF the TACT
that the thing is worth doing. The most
significant circumstance appearing In this
connection is that the women's holiday
clubs are more prosperous than those
promoted by the men The women nave

HANDLE FOR MATTRESSES.
Simple Methods by Which They Can

knows. it is exceedingly cumbersome and
difficult to handle. being too thick to
grasp IN the hands and has no projecting
edge by which il can be grasped. An

of a mattress by the simple addition OF
small handles near the corners. He
