MODERN WOMAN AND HER MONEY

Our grandmothers gathered their food from gardens, wove and made their clothes by hand, and exchanged barter for those few articles which were manu- factured and imported, so that money then did not play great part in every day life. They could live without money, but we c annot. Even the farm woman who does not have to go to mar ket for her food, must have mon- ey for clothes and for a hundred and one manufactured articles that have come to be known as necessities.
 The city woman connot exist without n oney. She must pay for food and for water and for air to breathe. If she has but little money she probably lives in crowded quarters where the air is bad. If she has much she chooses the sunshiny places where health and happiness abound. We must admit that un- der the present mode of exist. ence money is a necessity. It is a great convenience, too. like to think of it as a scale-weight balancing with every commodity on earth. -MayISelley, in August Southern Woman.
