prices are not unduly inflated.

Saved! Saved!

Now is the winter of our discomfort made glor-
ious summer by the son-of-a-gun who runs
Vogue and who springs upon our war tax gloom
the solution of How to live on $35 900 year."
Oppressed by prospects of having to pay some
thing in war taxation, he takes his $4,000 In
hand and says, ave must spend less" This
means cutting off the frils and feathers of social
sploshng Being a small family with only $685.,
900 income, and living in four of five-story
brown-stone front, says Vogue, we are first to
economic by reducing our force to eight ser
wants, furnace man and chauffeur. Our meals
are to be cut to three or four perfectly chosen"
meals day.
Not more than two of the children can receive
private instruction. There will not be enough
for box at the opera, for two cars and personal
maid for each woman in the family. And so on.
This plan of economy on $35, 900 year is per-
fecty lovely, so far it goes, and powerful lot
of gratitude is due the Vogue brains for thinking
it out
1t may be suggested, however as additional
economical measure, that grandmamma's false
teeth be hid so that she's be confined to the more
inexpensive spoon-victuas, and that father be re-
quired to grease his own boots, thus obviating
the pay of one valet.
Alas! families with more than two children
will be in fix that seems unavoidable. The al
tentative seems to be to drown the surplus.
1t surely requires skill and discretion to pare
down $35, 600 year and not suffer dreadfully.

sympathy for the stricken city of Halifax. The
disaster that followed the explosion of 400 tons
of TINT, as the allies high powered gunpower is
KNOWN is the most terrible that ever devastated

Commingled with this heartfelt pity, however,
Tacoma cannot help feeling, in the back of its
mind, relief and satisfaction that similar catas-
trOphe has been spared this city.

because we pointed out what looked like grave
danger
Well we would rather be cracked, sensational

We would rather live in a safeguarded Tacoma
than numbered in the colony of the victims of
