 CONSIDERABLE DAMAGE

The heavy wind and rains crm of Wednesday night did considerable property damage. Besides the sev- eral hundred phones and the several telegraph lines that were put out of commission, a heavy gust of wind broke the large plate glass window at the Cleveland-Matthews Hardware Company.
 Three barges and a derrick boat owned by c. E. Philpot, and moored at the west bank of the Arkansas river, a mile north of the city, broke loose during the storm and drifted down the river to a point opposite the Cotton Belt shops. The dragging anchor caused the barges to drift near the bank and they were tied up by nightwatchman. The runaway barges" were lowed back up the river yesterday morning and re-fastened.

Keeping WITHIN
ONE'sNCOME

Ny husband is an accountant In
New York City. writes contributor
to the Ladies Home Journal, and We
began housekeeping seven years ago
on an income of SIPS month IN
considering our domestic finances We
found them very. surprising, but no
less interesting. We studied them
carefully and the result was that i,
as housekeeper. turned from the old
haphazafd way Of housekeeping TO
the systematic way, which. 1 found,
made housekeeping keenly interesting
instead OF tiresome.
The first thing we did was to d.
vide our cost OF living into inn
movable expenses and fluctuating ex-
pense,
. We. included coal and gas in the
immoyable expenses and got, their
monthly rates by taking averages for
the year. Rent. Communication and
church dues remained the same the
year round
Monthly table Of immoyable ex-
penses- Rent $23, Communication 81.
gus 50, coal $l.l7, church dues 81.
laundry and scrnb-woman $40; total.
S45.I7.
This left us practically $50 month
for fluctnating expenses; food. cloth
ing repairs. amusements.- etc.
It took, another year of practise and
adjustment to spend this $50 prop
,erly. Our schedule will give for the
last year.
Ny family is now six in number,
myself and husband, three children
and a maid: yet | am not spending
any more money now than 1 did In
the first housekeeping year, and this
in spite of advanced prices.
Monthly table of approximate fluc-
tuating expenses: Husbands personal
expenses, $40; food. $40: clothing.
80; savings, $40; total, $50.
A few words about our savings ac-
count: When we first thought about
it we determined that, come what
might we would put away $40 every
month. And we have done It This
taught us self-denial and hard
enough 1t was to learn, but to live
within small means is not possible
without seifdenial.
! Our clothing account we estimated
at SO a month. 500 a year. But Il
did not follow that we spent the SO
every month. So our plan is to bank
our clothing money with. our savings
and draw on it as clothes are need
ed; and I find that in the year we do
not spend the $12O, but have some
of it remaining to leave permanently
with our savings
a - - -
expense. and what they do cost we
manage to pay for out of our monthly
money in hand-that is. by kitchen
money or my husbands pocket money
Books and magazines are Borrowed

Clothes are not so expensive az one
might think. We always buy ours at
the end OF the season when prices are
