In an article on vacation in the

thor says in part:
Horace Greeley said he had been
twenty years trying tn find time to go
a%-fishing, and a few years later he
died from overwork and anxiety.
Many a farmer lives all his life within
the sight of running streams, or with
in sound of babhling brooks. and the
suggestion that he hang up his hoe
and go a-f1shing never reaches him.
Thoreaus says. The better part of

compost: and l have known some
such lives. knew a woman who put
her babies in a barrel and left them

sometimes lends a great deal of en-

amount OF money. more than a
few dollars at a time.
In most instances her mother has
purchased all her clothes. paid her
bills and looked after all the little de-
tails Of her life. Then she wat given
q small weekly sum for chocolates and
the theater n such other tr~ivialittes
OF the schoolgirl. When she receives
her first real allowance she feels that
she Is really a grown woman, that she
has at last attained independence.
Such a mother naturally has had all

up to h time the allowance IL decid-
ed upon: then the father is really the
head OF the household. Parents have
the young girl should have her W
way in certain things: that there is a
time when she should be given money
and taught how to use it.
So the sum Is named. and the young
lady is told that such an amount
neither Of her parents ever spent in
their young days. and awful threats
are limited at If she should exceed it
by a single dollar. The allowance

promises everything and anything
that is desired Of her.
When she gathers up the first
months allowance in her hand, she
laughs to hear the crisp banknotes

devices.
The bargain sales thrive on the first
allowance Of the inexperienced spend
er. but there is no doubling that the
allowance Is a good thing for the
young girl. 1t usually takes but a few
months for her to become wise In
money matters: the money is placed
1 n a bank, and it is drawn out as it is
absolutely needed. The girl with her
first allowance often hopes to ave
afterwards has no conceivable use. but
this habit Is one that lasts only a short
while.
1t is quite within the rights Of the
father or mother to expect the girl
just freed from the schoolroom to
save a portion Of her money given her
each month. but it is Il great mistake
to expect these accounts to be too
strictly rendered. All big bills should
be put down accurately, and the girl
taught to keep a strict account of
smaller sums. and then to turn a
rough estimate of these in the official
account book.
A parent will discover that 1t is ex-
IRENE folly to expect any young girl
to explain where every penny has
gone. 1t takes away all the grace and
pleasure Of the allowance. Some
mothers reserve a certain proportion
of their daughters allowance to spend
themselves for the unseen. and too
often ignored. necessities of the lat

course. for no sensible woman can
either expect or desire an old head

Sleeping in Open Air.

The number of persons who sleep
in the open air has considerably null
tiplied during the last few years. At
some Of the institutions many Of the
nurses sleep upon roofs that are fiat.
In the country where houses are iso-
lated. beds are fixed up in the gar
dens. where the more venturesome
members of the family take their rest.
1t is useless to call this family a
fad. for the beneficial effects have
been so thoroughly tested that it can
no longer be looked upon as an ex-
pertinent.
At first. the movement in favor
of outdoor sleeping was favored
wholly by patients suffering from in
cipient tuberculosis. but not half the
persons who now practice 1t have
ever been in danger or fear Of the
great white plague. Many take the
treatment for ervo disorders,
some for delicacy of constitution. and
others for IRE enjoyment and the
i%nvigorating effect Of breathing pure
oxygen during slumber.
But once a beginning is made, few
care to %relinduish the luxury. and
they are even unwilling to submit to
close confinement when the winter
along.
