Practise of Real Economy.
80 many difl‘erent ideas of economy
prevail among those who endeavor to
practise it that it is somewhat diffi-
cult to know just what real practical
economy is. Almost every one has
some pet hobby in saving, and many
feel because they succeed in making a
‘ lulisfactory' reduction in expenses in
that particular line that the question
of economy has been solved. All-
Iround economy is practised by few
' poople and in cases where these pet
hobbies are carried to the point of
miserliness it is well that they do not
, extend to all of the expenditures.
There is a vast difference between
“practical economy and niggardliness.
‘One cuts out all extravagances and
”dimes expenses where it does not
" imbecessarily inconvenience, slid the

~ dop‘r‘ive oneself or others of the or‘
