His employers may pay him a pretty
good salary hut I'll bet a whole strin-r

William's expenditures are running n
pretty close race with the pay wagon.
I may be wrong about this but I've
been loaded up with a few brief re-

they'll do the most good. Maybe I'm

No my little girl this matter of

That's n prevalent idea I'll admit nud.

of secondary Importance. And In the
work of home building the man and

shoulder to shoulder. -Do you remem-

VVift as Financial Manager-
The average woman is a better man-
ager In small things than the average
man. In the financial affairs of the
househokl she can make a dollar go
twice as far as he can if she wants to
do It and puts her mind on It. She Is
better at driving a bargain has a clear-
er understanding of values and a great-
er respect for the penny as. a unit of
measurement. When a 'man gets this
fact Into his head when he learns that
she not only desires to help him' but is
to be trusted with the purse strings

is so impressed

with the finan-
cial ability of
his wife ami his
own lack of It
that he tu rns
over all of his
earnings to her
and Is a greater
gainer by the
transaction. But
such a shifting
of responslbllity
is In itself a con-
Suppose that he cfr'fession of weuk-
yuu jmtf hit salary ness or incapa-
bility and. besides places an uufttlrload
on the wife. The better plan Is hitjed 611
the idea of equal partnership equality
of Income equality of expense and
equality of profit. That is to say let
him divide Ids salary with his wife
each assume responsibility for half of
the fixed expenses of the household
and each have the right to upend or
save his or her share of the remainder
without question from the other. That
gives the wife a definite standing In
the economy of the household; it makes
her financially independent and ut the
same time places an obligation upon
her which she Is not likely .to ignore.
That's the way. I'd like to see you
and William arrange your affairs be-
cause. I know by. my own experience
as well as the experience of others
that It Is the surest road to Independ-
ence and becauae It promotes that mu
tual respect and confidence which
when associated with love form tb
basis of married happiness.
Of course I don't know ray dear
what William's attitude may bei Som
men find it mighty hard to cough up
any part of their Income even for
household expenses let alone pla
money. But taking It for granted that
he's the kind of a hairpin I think he Is
and willing to do the square thing by
you when he learns what Is the square
thln Iet figure a little on your end
of the seesaw. .Suppose that he gives
you half of his safary and he says
"how. darling" or '-sweetness" or
'bunch o roses" whatever it is bo
calls you when his dinner tils htm well
"now. you pay for the provisions the
laundry and the help and all you have
left you can spend for clothes or any-
thing else you want but you mustn't
exceed your allowauce and. if you can
save some of it all the better. I'll pay
the rent the fuel the light nd all the
other expenses with the same under-
standing as to the leavings." Suppos
he does this what are you going to do?
T.et me give you a few pointers.
In the first place don't have a charge .
account anywhere. It's mighty con
venient hut It's also mighty expensive.
A. dollar in cash will go a good deal
further than 100 cents on the grocer's
books.. You can buy wherever you can
get the most for your money some
things at one place some things at an-
other. You nre in a position to take
advantage of any genuine bargains
that may be offered anywhere. At th
same time you alwnys know exactly
where you stand. When you run an
account you don't know what yoa'r
up against until the bill comas in the
first of the month and then It's always
more than you expected. If tberVs a
mistake or an overcharge you can have
it corrected at once if you are paying
cash; if you are doing business on
credit you probably won't know any-
thing about it at all.
Whare the Economy Lies.
In the second place do your own
marketing so far as you can. It's the
only way"" to be reasonably sure that
you are getting what you pay for. It
gives you au opportunity to. see what
Is in the market and to make better
selections. More
than that It
teaches you to
recognize values
and it gives you
a knowledge of
human nature
you couldn't ac-
quire In a bun-'
dred years by
sitting In your
boudoir and kimono-reading
an.
Indiana novel
A knowledge of
human nature 1
mighty valuable
my 1exr just as
Bill's wbrning fr you. valuable in busi
ness at home as in business down-
town; the only trouble is the more you
Know about it the less you lrke it. At
the same time rhe more you know about
human nature the better you like the
cash s.x em. i
XWo-thirds of the economy of the
household is In the buying; the -other
third .isj In the -use of what you buy.
The last even more than the-first re-
quires experience and It ii experi-
ence that must be mostly self gained
but your mother can help you a lot
if you wilt let her; I guess I've said
more than you want to - read about
saving. As old John Shernian said
alKMit specie payments. "The only way
to resume Is to-resume. So with sav
ingthe. only way to save is to save.
Dou't stint. There Is 'a broad differ-
ence between stinginess and economy.
Dress as prettily and as stylishly as
you can have atl the comforts and
luxuries yon can properly afford but
keep within your allowance and al-.
ways aim to have tt margin at; the end
of the week. '
Whether It's big or little have a
margin ami then you are always on
the safe side also the saving side.
IMit the margins away somewhere the
bank's the best place and keep them.
Don't touch your savings for any-
thing but actual necessity and If it
should come to that your old dad
would like to he consulted.
Now. my little girl this Is a mighty
prosy subject. Maybe it's distasteful
but you want to remember that Bill's
downtown in his shirt sleeves working
working for you. and It's a doggoned
prosy business too. taking It by itseh.
But his love 1111s it with poetry and bo
your love for him can weave hexame-
ters or whatever they call them about
the dollars and- cents tbe toil and
the trouble and the tears of househokl
economy. Put the poetry into It hon-
ey put the poetry But. gee whiz
there's my train. Goodbyl Your af-
fectionate dad JOHN SNBBD.

"Kvary student of literature kiiowa"
be said "that Anthony Trollope was
one of Euglaud's great novelists. It 1m

And so on for ten minutes.

turning again to Us work "you haven't
succeeded iu Interesting me a bit."
"That's all right." rejoined the tall
man In tin nuit of faded black re-
idacing tlie sample volume In his valise
