MRS. PRINCE'S MANAGEMENT.-
'One dollar saved It two dollars earned."

husband. .' . . ' . 1
"Ob, Sally, but I am tired of your musty prov

would a silver cake basket !" . J rs

What he did as he said so may be left to the
sympathetic Imagination of young married people.
He had shown unquestionable taste in falling in
love, If Indeed it Is ever to be supposed that men

waa in harmony with her face.
And now," gentle readerTbe you manor woman,
you may finish her portrait to your own prefer-
ence. .Make her brunette or blonde, petite or full,
as you happen to like best. But we will stipulate
for the general Idea of the costume: the " mak
Jng iip.'whiclk. whatever we may say, Is quite
half of the matter in the question of personal
attraction. Sarah was becomingly dressed. There
was no show of effort to look,-fine, neither was
there any neglect of anything which became a
neat costume. Upon iny word, I cannot tell how
she was dressed. The most becoming apparel is
that of which you can recollect nothing, except
that the general effect was 3hat Jt.ahauld-be,.
Sarah was not brllttaut. She did not pretend to

politicians say,' and was determined to make the
most ana best of- It. - . .
..Hut Sarah waa not designing or selfish. She

means so particular, lie hud always expended all
J" he could get, And had trespassed a little, and
sometimes more than a little, on his -future re-
.:. ceipts. He had found no difficulty In' command
(. ing the best salary, and hadnever lacked employ
ment. He ought to' hare had a snug sum In re-
serve, but he liad not. Hlsr dreHS was well, the
first thought you had of him was that he was
. gt up regardless of exene"," Not that he was
flashy or tawdry in his style. He was constitu
tionally incapable of anything not In good taste,
r;And so was Sarah. Hut she had the happy faculty
- : of making her little look meat, and of doubling
the value of a small Income. He had a habit of
-prewiring-whatever was elegant, choice and use
ful, at whatever cost. Perhaps he waji not what
Sou would call an extravagaut man, but hecerr
ilnly was not a prudent one. -' " .
, ' You may wonder how two such opposites came
together; much stranger. things happen every
. day, ,Love, they say, works wonders; and there
was, after nil, a great deal of sympathy iwtwecn
, them. They both appreclatetl the beautiful ;
. Sarah had the faculty of making beauty out of
scanty and simple material. And her husband
had the less prudent knack of securing very ex
pensive things somehow. ,Ve think,, and,, are
probably not far wrong, that he. never, had any
actual ownership In the .money which came Into
; his hands. It was all mortgagedbcfore he re
ceived it. " ' .
' And this was the man out of whom Sarah ex-
pected to make a prudent husband. ' How could
he-Tnarryhlm ? You have aked that bef
fore.
We only know she did, and that plenty of prudent
wmm-ti a-vtr-m rei ess- h u s b a n d 8ouc1TThet
better for the husbands.
The question under consideration, was the rent
ing of a house.. Two houes were iu view, and
the difference in rent was two or three hundred
dollars. The husband 'considered that he could
obtain the money without much difficulty. The
wife thoueht. In hrr nulft way. tht h
laior miirht be wall saved, and that even If the
Jabowere-glvenf-andtheLamount-aecureuV-U
might be much better invested than In the mere
5 ratification of a preference which she thought
early secured, though 11. there had een no differ
ence of dollars and cents therecould have been no
hesitation. The husband declared for the dearer,
the wife for the cheaper, house : and In the course
of the discussion Sarah advanced the not very
new apothegm with which our sketch opens t
"A dollar saved Is two dollars earned."
Musty this, no doubt, but certainly true, and
capable of authentical demonstration. The dol
lar saved is one ; the dollar earned, and not being
-apentrwbiithothgr dollar still remaiust makes
. two. .
Playfully as to the mode, but earnestly and sin
cerely as to the Intention, the wife resisted her
husband's wish. But the result was reached which

vanity and selfishness which Is hidden by all these
honeyed words. If the lady Is welLdressed, the

- And so, on the first uay7or rebruary, uespite
many discussfons, it was still the cam) that the

made a tour alone through the bare, cold rooms.
"Let us take a look In at Hetikel's, this morn

was herttelf clearing away the, iM'autlful break fa t
set which. Harry had secured by sending It-home
as a present, and as a proof of his good taste. ..

course the collector did not call we who are In

not an idea. Certainly the dream of married life
had quite lot Its hues of glory. As to the rent,
he thought he could get that mmehow, his famous
mode In difficulties. And, for the furniture, If
Tills .wife were only a reasonable woman, that
could be had, too, on reasonable credit; but he
knew she would rather the house should remain
unfurnished than contract any debt. So, on the
whole, he returned home In the evening feeling

"he's alarmed for his rent. He might have sent

nothing out, and Sarah proceeded:
"Five hundretl dollars would be so convenlentr
you know.' It would pay our rent for the rest of
the year, and longer," if we took a smaller house."
Harry wlncetl ; for he . wondered ,(where the
money was to come from for the first quarter.
Waiving that part of the question, however, he
suggested that finding a new house might be at
tenderwlth some difficulty, and that It might be
iquite as well to secure another home before turn
ing themselves out or dnrs.
Henry was evidently not In awrygwxl humor;
but his wife was wickedly cheerful.
"Suppose," she said, -"! should tell you that we
can move to-morrow Into another house, and at

IN'Rl'LTM TO WOMEN BY WITNESS E8 IN A SUIT
. IN INDIANA.
In the case of Allen vs. Allen, to set aside fraud
ulent reort of guardian on account of excessive
charges for boarding, clothing and lodging a ward,
trled before the Master Commissioner last week,
a Mr. William Darker, who lives In Fulton town
ship of this county, in his-testimony for the de
fense made the following startling disclosure un
der oath. He said:
"I am the father of. six girls; have kept board
ers ; broke myself up at it. It Is worth $3.15 per
cents per week; bert-oard Is worth $2.25 more per
week than her work." '
At this wonderful disclosure the counsel for the .
rilalntiff, Messrs. Wood A Copuer, cried nut slmul-.
aneouslv, the former, "I pity the girls," and the -latter,
"Thank (lod-, I have but one daughter and
that one Is married." So we -would say, heaven
help the girls of our country. How they can keep
body aud soul together un such wages we can't
see. -Work by tin week, and fall In debt $2.25 per
.week Just for hoard? This leaves nothing for
idolblitgmedleiue, dH tor bills, eto. 4f-uelMs the
caso we can exclaim with the counsel, "Pity tho
Hor girls,"
It was shown in evhlenco that this girl waa
hearty, robust girl ; never hal a physician to call
on her, but once ; never bought but one bottle of
medicine In her life; lived with her guardian from
seven years old to twenty-one; worked lii4oor
and nut; carrlel wooilfrom the woods; hoed In the
garden ; planted corn, milked cows, churned butter,
picked geese, washed, Ironed, serubled, dried ap
ple, and baked; was dressed In ordinary clothes
calico for Summer, llnsey for Winter; wentbare-
foot In Summer and wore stoga shoes In Whiter;
had fine (?) shoes tliatcost from $2.25 to $2.75apuir
for Sunday. And yet, with all this work, she Is only
worth 75 cents per week, while her ttoard Is worth

Is not this an outrage uiton humanity ? Does
anybody believe it? No wonder her guardian
wanted to absorb the $700 or $10)0 that came to
her through her soldier father who laid hi llfo
upon his country's altar. This Is but a fair sam
ple of many cases. Acxvrding to the oidnlonot
many iH'rsons, a girl cannot earn her living by
honest toil. What a base He. What a slander on
female worth. Many girls throughout this fair
land of ours perform more drudgery In one year
than do their petted and more fortunate fort una t

'That audi a girl dressed ordinarily would not
Come out even; could not pay the-.board, cloth
ing, etc., by her work." Yet John liurnslde has
a girl. He pays $000 taxes ter year.- Oh shame,
where Is thy blush ?
With such testimony before us, can anyone
wonder at the increase of crime? Is It any won
der that the American girl, rather than work out
by the week to starve, be sneered at, scolled at
and leat, prefers "an easier" (Js save the mark)
lifer a life of sin and smiute? Is It any wonder
that our . houses of prostitution are filled with
women and girls who sell their health, beauty.
and what Is; more prleeles than all, virtue, f ra
