THEIR WAY TO HAPPINESS
One Couple That Kept Out Of Debt
and Didn't Keep Up
Appearances.

But they had to keep up appear
ances," the other woman declared,
speaking of young couple who had
lived beyond the husbands salary and
were in all sorts of trouble, according
to the Indianapolis Star.
"Why did they-what appearances?"
the woman opposite asked.
"Why, they had to live to some ex-
tent at least like their friends did, the
people they were thrown with. They
had to live in a nice neighborhood
and dress respectfully and entertain a
little once in while"
NO. the woman opposite insisted.
"They only thought they did. They
were merely keeping up with Lizzie
and didn't know how foolish it was
when they couldn't afford it."
But what could they have done?
They couldn't go and live in the slums
and they had to keep UP their self
respect"
1t depends upon what you call self
respect. can maintain mine best
by not going in debt up to my eyes.
And 1t wasn't necessary for them to
go to the slums, wherever those may
be. l know couple who found two
rooms out on side street and went

bits of furniture they could afford to

traffic neighborhood with which they
were most familiar, but they didn't
mind that"
Il should have thought they would"
cat any rate they didn't mind it
enough to put off getting married until
the man got big salary
did their friends come to see
them?"
"They certainly did Some of the
callers came from curiosity, suppose,
and some probably pitied them, but
they were perfectly happy Just the
same. The point was that they did
not spend more than they had and
even out of the little they saved some

But didn't they have to go shah.
by?"
"They did sometimes; they went
without many things to which they
were accustomed, but you see they
were very much in love and they had
counted the cost and we're prepared"
What about them now?"
oh, they are living in house Of
their own, but doubt if they are any
happier than when they were going
without in their two rooms. But they
proved to me that It is not necessary
to keep up appearances"

able food for general consumption, and
an inexpensive substitute for meat. 1t
is remarkably high in protein, which
is the nutrient, or fiesh-producing, sub

by the gastric juices. 1t is also said
to be quite palatable and satisfying.
Cottonseed flour is made from the

been pressed from it, 1t is a highly
concentrated food and is in no way
intended to replace wheat -four or 9th
