 how to get along. I have $25 a week. Rent and wood, milk and coal besides our store bill, takes it all We all like most every thing that comes alo.rg. Three kidlets and three grown people beside myself seven in the family: Cannot someone tell us how to plan to save little for a rainy day. 1 must, somehow, for my kids must all have some new things for summer.
 I spoke about rent Most people have to pay by the month. but a big part of them here pay by the week. | $2.50 q week I pay. Milk. s1.10 every week. We have two quarts a day and 21 cents for papers every week. We | don't have to buy wood every week, ] for we don't keep but one fire. But ! every other week a half cord which
 costs $4.50.
