PLAN TO
ELIMINATE
DISASTERS
SECRET OF SYSTEM IN GOOD
MANAGEMENT OUTLINED
BY WOMAN

Il didn't know Mr. Blank made
much money" said one woman to a
friend, in speaking OF a mutual ac-
quaintance, but he must, because
Mrs Blank always seems to have
money for certain things that other
people whom | always drought to be
in better circumstances can not at
ford"
We'll, your first assumption was
right, responde her friend. Mr..
Blank does not make very much
money, but Mrs. Blank has the secret
of good and systematic management
down to very fine point, and that in
itself is worth whole lot more than
money | used to wonder how she
did it, because | felt exactly as you
did about it, only, you see, l happen
ed to know exactly what their in
come was Then one day she told a
friend about it, and she. in turn, told
me.
You see, Mrs. Blank has had some
experience on both sides of the fin
ancial fence. Her parents were quite
we'll to do, but she says that she
noticed in her girlhood that even
with an income somewhat above the
average there always seemed to be
lack of ready money, for the money
went out to creditors just about as
fast as it came in, 1T was the old
case of spending money before it was
earned that has caused SO many dis
asters.
Some mismans gemen, kept things
in this state year after year, and 1t
force of character that she noticed
it and resolved to do differently in the
conduct of her own home.
"AY'ordingly, after getting mar
ried, she resolved to live strictly
within her means. Each week she
puts away the money for each in
dividual debt which is still outsttand-
ing before a penny is spent on them
selves or for pleasure. Then she
feels that whatever is left is hers to
do with as she pleases, for there will
be no demand on it apd no duns for
bills which are unp1 For many
years now she has laid aside each
week the money for the rent, coal, |
,as, insurance, church dues. and every |
single item that enters into their |
budget. When the creditors call for |
he money it IS ready for them.
TO her own surprise, she has
ound that she has been able no put
way something and also to afford
lany little pleasures, and all this on

hitched to wagon loaded with flour.
The runaway epidemic Immediately
affected these horses and they start
ed up the street at a race that far
exceeded the speed limit. Both run
away teams turned the corner at

ward the railroad tracks. The Gra-
den team was stopped in the vicinity

Durango's Wireless Telegraph

There are many people in our
midst who are not aware that there
is in our town wireless telegraph
station that is successfully operated.
1t was constructed by John Ware,
only son Of Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Ware,
and is located on the Ware property
at 643 Third avenue. For several
years the lad has been interested in
wireless telegraphy and read extern
sively on the subject. Last year he
decided to construct "set" of his
, own. The aerial was small one and
while he could use it, it did not op-
crate to his satisfaction. Last sum-
mer on his trip to Boston, John visit
ed number of ships equipped with
| wireless outfits and on his return
: home he started at once to improve
on the construction of his. He now
has an aerial which consists Of six
strands of wire, each 95 feet long,
suspended between two iron masts As
feet high. The instrument in con-
| nection is supposed to have maxi
mum sending range of so miles and a
maximum receiving range of 1000
miles. Its full capacity, however, has
not been tested. John receives read
lily and clearly from two other in
struments few blocks away, one Of
