The Bungalow

From Judge. Oh, I'd like to have (now wouldn't
 youO
 A little bungalow for two, With a bit of shade above the caves, Where could hear the laugh of the
 leaves;
 And somewhere near a plot of ground, Where I could go and mess around. And feel as free as a vagrant grig, And dig if I happened to want to dig! And watch the flowers smile up at me, And jest with passing bird or bee; And have her come (for she'd be thereD With sunlight glinting upon her hair. (And dmples playing at hide-and-seek-- Rose and snow upon her cheekD And have her whisper. low and sweet, Dear, don't you think that it's time to
 eatT'
 Oh, I'm going to have (should she not
 say "no')
 Just such a little bungalow.

TALKS ON THRIFT
Saving and Wise Spending

AS a matter of fact, extravagance has come to be a national habit among us' and self-indulgence the natural child or extravagance, has walked hand in hand with an eagerness to spend money-a will ineness which at times amounts to eager noss s'-Congressman J. Hampton Moore Pennsylvania.
 In period of high cost of living like the present, it behooves every man 10 lock well to the purchasing power or ms dollars, rot only as indicated by market reports but more particularly the sklii and wisdom with which his dollars are expended. over market prices he mas little, if any, control while the other Is quite within his province to regulate.
 The dollar man spends should buy it's full measure of value; .he dollar he saves should earn it's full measure of interest.
 The dollar of today can buy no more than So cents 10 years ago. In other words, lad you pleced a dollar in the savings hank 10 years ago and left 1t undis- tLrbed, you would find, upon drawing It out today and going to market, that even with it's increase in value due to the working of compound interest, 1t would be no more effective in satisfying your wants than was the original sum- While 1t was growing in size, 1t was contract ing in its power to buy.
 We are apt to get the notion that thrift
 is merely the saving of money and judge a mans thrift by the number and fre- quency of his visits to the savings bank, forgetting that thrift is just as much proved by the way dollar is spent as by the number of dollars earned. Spending is, perhaps, finer art than earning; for All can earn, but few can spend wisely Given an equal Income, some will live well md prosper, while others will run Into debt. It Is simply the knack of knowing how, and when, and where to buy, and-haying the cash to pay Witness the very poor They are proverbially thriftless, rerhaps Of ne- oessity in good many cases. Coal by the pail meat by the 10 cedts worth, clothes and furniture on the tnstallment plan the most costly method.
 Granted that a man Is thrifty and has a surplus at the week end, what shall he do with it? Buy lot In some deserted sectional dollar down and dollar a weak for 50 years? Listen to the lure Of the get-rict-qGick scheme and buy a p per cent stock? Buy a house and stor raying rent, and begin to worry? No leads straight to the savings bank, fol therein Is profit and safety.
 The savings bank and the savings de partnients of other sound banks were in stituted for the small saver. Their fun damental purpose Is to assemble the say irgs of the masses, invest them wisely and pay over a goodly share of the profits by way of interest dividends to the de. positors. In such an Institution he Is or safe gre und. Iin cannot, Gs q rule. go wrong Ii is the beginning of good things for every man who will get the habit and keep it up. T. D. MACGREGOR.

1t is better to dry the leaves that
are gathered each day by themselves,
as in mixing some dry too much and
others not enough. If in your old
fashioned garden you have rose ge-
raniums and lemon plant use the
leaves of these with those of the roses.
An old-fashioned rose jar filled with
rose leaves was a gift that was much
priced in great grandmother's time.
/ still have one that belonged to my
great grandmother, and there hangs
about the ash-like leaves an elusive
fragrance that speaks of olden days.
This rose jar" was made after the
following recipe:
Use a vase that has tight cover.
Pick the roses in the early morning,
and as-the leaves fall from the stems
spread them on paper and sprinkle
them slightly with salt.
Allow them to dry, but not enough
to crumble or lose their color. Then
arrange them in a jar, a layer of
leaves and layer of the spices pre-
pared as for the first recipe.

meg and a half teaspoOnful of allspice
and two teaspOonsful Of orris root.

SOUTH RENDERS LEARN
LID Is ON THE TANGO AT
HUDSON LAKE PAVILION

The tango is very naughty,
naught-- dance and shouldn't be allow
ed even at a summer resort.
So says Charles Fisher, manager OF
the Hudson lake park resort and like
wise the dancing pavilion. Wednesday
afternoon at the Grocers and Butchers
picnic he took occasion to inform the
more innocent South Bend shop
keepers of the good" and bad
dances.
When a young couple-ineXperi-
enced in the particular policies which
it seems have been long established at
the resort-attempted to perform this
rather popular step to the admiration
of a dozen or more companion pic
nickers, dancemaster Fisher, closed the
lid" down tight on his music box and
simply would not pull it off until the
dancers agreed to try the regular
dances. OF course. they got indignant
and pulled stakes for South Bend.
