"Huml Hum" said Mr.. Bowser as
he flushed up.
And you buy 50 neckties when one
for half dollar would do as we'll"
Hum! Hunt
And you have four pair of shoes
lying around upstairs when you can
wear only one pair at a time"
well" said Mr.. Bowser. as he
hitched around in his chair uneasily.
81 will try the new way with you. As
make very much difference just what
brand they are. Perhaps 1 have been
too particular about my ties and per-
haps I could do with fewer shoes. You
will find me ready to meet you half
way in this matter. I am going to the
economist club this evening and hope
you will think it over and will be
ready to make a change tomorrow 1
thank you for your prompt agreement
with me and that l found you so
ready and willing to meet your hus-
bands wishes"
do have full swing of the house %
asked Mrs. Bowser.
Indeed you do. I'll leave it all to
you and shall accept things as I find
them"
Mr. Bowser went off to the club and
there he heard the president say that
! a man could live on baked potatoes
and Goldfish gravy, and be a healthy,
strong man and that such food would
develop new brain power. The same
speaker said that a prisoner in a jail
gained ten pounds of flesh in one
month on a diet of bread and water
alone
Mrs. Bowser spent her evening plan
ming and figuring and now and then
she laughed aloud to herself. She was
going to test Mr.. Bowser and there was
no doubt in her mind how that test
would result.
Nothing was said about economy
next morning and the plans went into
effect at once. Mr.. Bowser dearly
roast beef and mutton. He likewise
smacked his lips over his Mocha and
Java coffee and his potatoes are al
ways mashed to his liking. Mrs. Bow
ser went over to the butcher shop her
self that day and she asked for the
cheapest and poorest roast of beef the
butcher had in stock.
There is to be a change, eh?" snil-
ed the butcher.
Yes" replied Mrs. Bowser. Mr.
Bowser says 1 am too extravaganza
He want say so after eating this
roast" was the remark of the butcher
as she went out.
Returning home, she said to the
cook:
Mary, I want you to empty the
coffee grounds out on a dish and put
them in the oven to dry. When it is
time to make the coffee for dinner use
the old grounds"
tonished cook, do you want to kill off
Mr.. Bowser?"
NO. Mary, 1 Just want him to see
that I am not an extravagant wife
You can also boil the potatoes with
their jackets on and not peel or mash
them For sauce we will have stewed
prunes. Mr. Bowser as you know.

BOWSER'S ECONOMY
He Sets Out to Reduce Household Ex-
penses by Furnishing His stomach

Something allied Mr.. Bowser when
he came home the other evening.
Three or four times a week when
Mr. Bowser comes home from the Of
flee he has crouch against the world
and shows it in his face. AS soon as
Mrs. Bowser discovers it, she sets out
to talk him out of it and generally
succeeds. She saw the crouch this
time and did her very best at the din
neF table to dispell it, but he hung to
it like a dog to root and was look
ing more solemn when the meal was
finished than before it began.
Mrs Bowser sat down to a book
when they went upstairs. Mr.. Bow
ser sat to his evening paper and cigar,
! but after ten minutes had gone by he
threw both aside and said:
Mrs. Bowser, are you very busy
| this evening"
why, not unusually So" she said.
''Then I hope you can spare me ten
or fifteen minutes"
IAN hour, if you please, my dear.
What is it you wish" she asked.
Mr.. Bowser walked three times and
a half across the room. He loked at
the clock. He looked at the cat He
loked up at the ceiling as if he expect
ed TO find big hole there. It was
hard for him to make start, but he
finally said:
Mrs Bowser, there must be a
| change in the way you have been run
ming this house. 1 have let you go on
! for years and years in your eXtrava-
CANT way and said nothing. The time
has come when 1 must speak. 1 hope
there will be no hard feelings about
it and that we shall be in perfect &C
cord
We'll, what change do you wish
made?" she asked.
"a change from extravaganza to
economy" he answered I'VE must
live cheaper. It is hard times. We
must lop off here and there to meet
them Everybody 1 talk with is econ
omizing. Let us do likewise. We had
better have the money in the bank
than leave 80 much of it with the
grocer and the butcher"
What evidence have you seen of
my extravaganza ?" quietly asked Mrs.
Bowser
about a thousand evidences, but 1
will not name them. Sufficed to say
that the bills have been growing lar
ger and larger and there will shortly
come a time, unless a change is made,
when my income will not meet Them
perhaps 1 have been extravagant,
Mr.. Bowser and so have you, but we
will both call halt from this time
on. You buy ten-cent cigars by the
box. You are, of course, willing to
replace them with five-centers.

is coming for them tomorrow"
Mr SUwser dio the only thing that
a man could do under the circum-
stances and keep his self-respect. He
found his way through the semi
darkness to the hall and the hatrack
and went softly out into the night.
He walked up to the corner and leaned
against a wall. He wanted to medi-
tate and think on the subjects of econ
onIy and extravaganza. While he was
thinking, it began to snow. likewise
two tramps came along and leaned
up against the same wall, one on each
side of him, and when each one put
hand on his shoulder they said in cho-
rus:
"Old man. how do you like it as far
as you have gonei"
And Mr. Bowser moved off without
answering them. He was wondering
whether Mrs. Bowser's economy would
go beyond hashing up that old roast
for breakfast.

TheValue of the
Church Service

Have you thought of the value of Church service?
You are in the habit of measuring the value of other
things The Sunday services of the Christian Church
have an immense value to the community and to the
individual.
It is a good thing for one to worship with others
It is splendid habit pray with others. 1t is fine
thing accompany others to a common center where
thanksgiving offered the Giver of all good There
is an inspiration who participates with others in
a devotional meeting
The Church service is for all and for each That
is its glory. There is something in it for every life
present It is for entertainment for per-
sonal pleasure 1t is for upift 1t is to give strength
and comfort to 1t is to develop hope and to
large vision 1t is to purify and to save sin.
It is for character for service and for the better to-
Go to Church and its value for your life.
