FRuGALlTY HAS ITS ROMANCE
II 10 to Be Found In the Practice Of
Saving Some Part Of Ones
Earnings.

There is an injurious idea prevalent
among young Americans that pru-
dence. economy, caution and frugality
are among the mean qualities. and this
accounts largely for the meretricious
pride OF spending time and money,
just as 1t partly explains the popular
ity OF so many amiable wastrels. A
good fellow" may be not a self con-
demned fool. but he cannot discredit
the truism that fool and his money
are soon parted, says the Minneapolis
Journal.

We have drifted into confusion OF
the meaning and value of happiness as
contrasted with pleasure. and are
prone to accept ostentation In lieu OF
the fact and substance Of thrift. The
ways Of thrift are different from the
ways Of parsimony.
