CASE OF sTINeY HUSBAND
How One Head Of a Family superin-
tended Expenditures for House
hold Needs.

In a lively article in the current
number of Farm and Fireside. on the
relations between husbands and wives
on the subject of home finances. there
are several interesting reports of &C.
tual cases. Following is report Of a
stingy husband:
"'A girl I knew in my youth was
married after a short acquaintance to
a scholarly professional man. He had
been brought up under hard condi-
lions in a strenuous school of poverty.
She was the daughter of wealth and
had never been denied a reasonable
wish. Her husband was what is called
a good provider. He bought amply
for the table, and was not averse to
having plenty of fuel and sufficient
house-furnishings to keep his home
comfortable and dignified. He simply
declined to let Betty buy 30 much as
five cents worth of anything. He did
not wish her to have accounts at
shops, nor did she desire them. When
she wanted to buy anything for her
self or the children, he accompanied
her, superintended her purchases, ex-
amined every pair Of stockings and
every yard of muslin, and frowned
upon ruching and trimmings as need
less. drawing out his well-filled Docket
book and paying the bill with flour.
ish when the shopping had been done
to his satisfaction. She never had
any money in her possession except
when her mother sent 1t to her as a
gift, and when this was done, she took
excellent care to keep Reuben in ig-
norance. Once the good man, for in
some ways he was good, was com
PEELED to leave home for a few days.
He carefully counted the amount that
his wife would spend for the house
during his absence. Then he lost his
train and had to wait over another
day. Coming home, he asked her for
the cash and put 1t back in his own
pocket for the next "a hours"

AnaCortes Sees Possibilities

In a recent issue of the Anacortes
American appeared the following
which shows an awkening that may
mean much If rightly followed up:
ut is plain to every citizen of
Anacortes that the running Of boats
to the islands means much to the
city. These small boats bring many
passengers who Go their shopping
in the city, leaving many thousands
of dollars here which would other
wise 60 elsewhere. The movement
to give all encouragement possible
to these boats is an excellent one.
The Chamber Of Commerce has tax
en- the matter in hand, which is only
one of the many matters Of import
ance which that body will consider
during the year. The merchants
of the city can do much in throwing
work in the way Of the small vessels
especially those which are not max
ing sufficient money to give them
adequate compensation for their
efforts"
