Money Spending
By MRS. FRANK LEARNED.
Author Of "The Etiquette Of New York To-day"

THO keep accounts" may seem
a prosaic matter Some
girls may say that they
have little to spend and it is use
less to write down in an account
book where the money goes.
But needless worry may be
saved if one form a habit Of en-
tering ones daily expenditures in
little account book. The habit
is in itself a training in accuracy
and carefulness and is a firm
check on wastefulness. There is
less danger that money win be
wasted on unnecessary things,
candy, soda water, car fares, rib
bons, laces or tempting bargains.
Wastefulness may be in buying
things Just because a friend has
the same; novelties seen in shop
windows, articles reduced in
price and not really needed.
A girl who has an allowance
from her parents should be as
careful about spending it as II she
were earning her own money To
keep within an allowance is an
education. Thrift thus will be
acquired Prudence in choosing
well and in purchasing, fore
thought in managing expenses
Will be learned.
And, above all, there should be
appreciation Of responsibility in
spendin. Besides, fortune is
tickle. There is sometimes a
change from riches to poverty.
Habits Of economy and Of saw
ing Systematically are OF value to
every woman, no matter what her
circumstances. Girls who are
earning salaries should realize
that to learn how to spend and
Row to save is of vital conse-
quence. A good plan is to count
up income and expenses, decide

blasphemy against the sovereign

TIME other day in a certain city
I sent a bundle to the laun-
dry.
When the clothes came back
there came also a big, square
sealed envelope. I opened this
envelope and found in It three
ten-dollar bills. all nicely washed,
starched. ironed and carefully
placed between two pieces OF
cardboard ard tied up with blue
ribbon in a lovers knot.
No explanation was made, but
in the bill l saw they had charged
me % cents for laundering the
mazuma.
OF course l kicked, but what
was the use!
Then just for the fun of the
thing, in order to get a line on
that particular washhouse, went
around and demanded an explain
alton.
The young woman in charge
said they had found the money
in the rlght-h hand pocket of left
hand white vest which l had sent
in the bundle.
Then she explained, quite in
cidentally, that whenever soiled
clothes came in every garment
was carefully inspected for valu-
ables. Every day they found
money in pockets, diamond studs
in shirt bosoms, valuable links in
cuffs and collar buttons enough to
roll under all the bureaus in
Christendom.
1T is a part of our business"
said the young woman, ito pro-
tect our customers against their
own carelessness."
She saw I was interested, and
continued. I'VE never send gar
ments home with the buttons off.
Also, we do any little darning and
mending that should be done, and
all this without charge. Our bust
ness is to please our customers"
