MABEL HrerU + e Ecu Women
GnatSr Fnm Expenses

However. when the next day she
ordered a Jar of orange marmalade
and found that the regular twenty
four cent jar had been reduced to
nineteen. she felt more kindly to-
ward the bill For. after all. they
used more marmalade than perfume!
Helen was also vaguely interested
in the currency bill which had filled
the papers for so long. She wished
she knew more about those things
Mrs. Dalton belonged to a Current
Event club and talked brilliantly on
all such subjects. But Helen felt II
Warren would only explain things to
her. she could learn moro from him
than at any club. and now after a
moments silence she ventursd:
Dear, won't the currency bill help
some? l heard you and Mr. Stevens
talking about 1t the other night.
Just what will 1t do7"
"Oh. it's too technical you
wouldn't understand"
But from what you said to Mr..
Stevens, do you think II will help?"
We'll, that seems to be the general
feeling--if it doesn't cause over-in-
fation."
"Over-iniationi" eagerly, for that
was one of the phrases that had puz-
zled her. What does that
"Oh. for Heavens sake. can i'll
Read the papers"
= Il do. but / can't understand them
they never seem to tell the begin
ming of things. Dear, Mrs. Dalton

she's been wanting me to Join. Don't

But she says some Of the meet
ings are very good. believe Mrs.
Smith Rankins is going to speak next

Warren threw UP his head and
roared. The Mexican situation, Ell !?

kins, one of your busy females. get

voice to a shrill mimicry. Now,
ladies, this afternoon | shall give you
little talk on the Mexican situa-
ton" Then grimly. Now II you go
to any of those fool clubs and come
home spouting current events
there's where l get out"
They were through dinner now,
and when they went into the library,
Helen, who could never resist an OPP
portunity Of inveigling from Warren
some word OF approval, leaned over
his chair with a purring.
"Then you don't mind II Helen isn't
intellectual, and can't talk brilliant
u on the affairs OF the dayr
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1914-01-27

But this did not elicit the response
she hoped, for Warren only pushed
her away with a curt:
We'll, l DO mind your getting in
my light BY George" as he opened
the paper. Ellison & Briggs are in
the hands of a. receiver Well that
means I'm out 8 cool three hundred"
How, dear?" solicitously.
"Oh, a client of mine held lot of
their paper. Knew they were on
their last legs, and 1 was trying to
get some Of 1t before they failed"
Helen glanced over his shoulder at
the big headline. Ellison & Briggs
In the Hands of Receivers. Liabili-
tics $3.50. 600. Assets S2so.e
For months the papers had been
full Of just such failures. Helen had
skinned over the many headlines.
but 1t had all seemed 90 impersonal,
as had. too. the general discussion
on tho hard times"
All national problems are regarded
with impersonsl unconcern by most
women. The feminine mind is con-
cerned only with the difficulties that
directly affect herself or those she
loves
But now the failure of Ellison a
Briggs meant to Warren the loss Of
three hundred dollars. This was a
concrete example of the hard times
affecting them that Helen could un-
derstand. Had he suffered other
losses of which she knew nothing?
for Warren rarely talked shop at
home.
He had taken some papers from his
pocket and was now going over them
broodingly. his face showing unmis-
taxable lines of worry.
Dear, has 1t been a very bad year
for your
Well. it's not been a particularly
good one"
Why don't you tell me when
things are hard? could try to econ
omizs more about the house and about
my clothes"
"oh. the little you'd save wouldn't
cut any Ice. rs the big fixed ex-
penses that count. My office alone
costs over three hundred a month
and it's as much more here"
Helen was far from an adept in
mental arithmetic. but after a few
moments silence she managed to fg-
ure out that six hundred a month
was about twenty dollars a day.
Twenty dollars a day! why,
warren, that seems awful"
1T seems light when business is
good
"Oh. " there was only some way I
could help" longingly

tell you-and in times like this It's

fixed expenses Helen kept
turning the phrase over in her mind.
She had never even thought of his
office expenses. and like SO many
women she regarded their household
bills--the rent. maid. ice milk and
grocsrios-as matters course neces-
stiles, and not in the light of expen-
ditures.
This is tho viewpoint Of most
women who have been provided for
all their lives. They take the necee-
only the extras. the needless extrav-
agances and luxuries that they con-
slider as real expenditures.
In vague way Helen now realized
this. She thought of the times when
Warren had spoken OF receiving an
especially good fee: always she had
mentally appropriated that money to
the buying of extras. Somehow she
had never thought of 1t as paying
the rent
But now the office rent. their apart
Tent rent, and all the Fixed ex-
penses' doomed omInously before her.
With a sudden rush of tenderness she
thought OF Warrens steady grind"
of his always having to meet these
monthly bills which she had taken
as such matter OF course.
She longed to creep into his arms
and put something OF all this into
words. But knowing his intolerance
OF anything verging on emotion, she
contented herself with bringing him
an ash tray and moving the lamp
nearer his elbow

Isn't that pretty stiff?"
That does seem high" admitted
Helen. but the days are so short"
We'll. we use too much light any

that hung over their dining table.
Only three of the six bulbs were

turned off one of those.

have enough light to eat by. but we
don't need it all over the house"
1t was unlike Warren to bubble
over a small bill. He was usually
most generous about the household
expenses. but tonight he was plainly
irritable.
Now, are these all the bills? I
want to get them all off tomorrow,
thrusting them into his pocket with a
muttered, "Everything's going out

Helen, anxiously.

you? Hasn't the new tariff helped

Helens knowledge OF the tariff was
limited. She had found II had raised
her favorite perfume ten cents an
ounce, but the druggist explained that
perfume was a luxury. and that on all

What has Mary been doing now,

Don't ask me what she has been
doing. You know quite well, or If
you don't you ought to-"
My mother glanced at the MOWERS.
and she seemed TO understand what
Rad happened for her face fell and
she said, submissively:
Mary has done wrong, but am
sure she is sorry and will never do 1t
again"
Sorry, indeed" cried my aunt

my mother, in a low, grave voice.
But, then, I'm not very we'll: and
Mary Is all I have, you know"
MY mother was in tears by this
time but Aunt Bridget was not con-
tent with her triumph. Sweeping
downstairs she carried her complaint,
TO my rather, who ordered that I was

FOURTH CHAPTER.

"HERE was d whole colony on

who. like my father, could not
reconcile themselves TO my existence,
and the head OF them was Aunt
Bridget.
She had been married soon after
the marriage OF my mother. to one
Colonel Macleod. q middle-aged Of
ficer on half-pay, a widower, a Bel

the colonel had died within a year,

of her own, a girl, as we'll as daugh-
ter OF his wife by the former mar

time Of my birth, when II became OBJ
