Fur like most liidiun women, she

She wua uliine. iiilhor forlorn

not only to talk, but no Indian

A few days later, the man 55
invited the young Indian widow to
accompany him and his mother, by

they went in high feather. That
was on Saturday. Tho next day,
Sunday noon, tho Indian widow
appeared fu the coffee shop, look

apreud about via grapevine, the

lilOARNlNC. TO SAVE
Ity Alice .ludson I'm It. 1
Children are generally taught to
save cither through being made'' to
drop their money Into a toy bank,
which they are under penalty not
to open, or through having it de
posited for them In a savings bank.
The difficulty with this plan is
that It entirely Ignores what the.
child thinks and feels about 'it.
Five dollars received as 'a birthday
present from some generous uncle
then Immediately whisked out o
night and Into a savlnga account,
is apt to seem just five dollars lost
so far as the child Is concerned.
If parents Insist upon carrying
a savings account In the child's
name, they should try to make the
whoie business ueem as real as
possible to hhn. '
They .should take him along to
tho bank nnd let him push tho
money across to the teller witlt 'liis
own hands, and watch the teller
write the figure to his credit in
his book.
He should know, too, that no ono
but himself will ever touch thin
money, except in some very great
emergency when his parents nlay
use it for him.
The best way for a child to learn
to save, however, is' through re
ceiving a regular allowance, of
which it Is understood that he must
put away a certain' part. V.wi by
far the larger1' portion should' bo
his to spend, partly for necessities
and partly for pleasure.
I ' n less t here Is t hits ma rgin for
pleasure spending, we need not bo
surprised If Ijie child resents rt'ho
whole business of saving, and ' if
he likewise gets into - difficulties
through spending, not only his own
money, but that of othons. whldiL
he appropriates for himself becau.so
he feels that he has 'been unfairly
dealt with.
