The children trooped through the house with their mother as soon as breakfast was over.

Helen dusted the big living room and gave her own room a complete overhauling while Mrs. Hooper busied herself with the sweeping and mopping of the rooms and balls. Hhe usually cleaned one room thoroughly every day so that there was really no accumulation on Saturday and by 11 o’clock she and Helen were In the kitchen preparing vegetables and deert sfor the evening meal and planning the dinner for Sunday. “When father and I go out for a walk this afternoon, Helen," said Mrs. Hooper, “wo will see Miss Brown about your having a dancing le&son each week after this.” “Oh, mother, I am so glad.” Helen's eyes were shining. “I'vo wauted to go to the class so much. All the other girls go, you know."

"Yes, I do know It, dear, and I’ve been trying to manage It for a long time," replied Mrs. Hooper softly. “I shall begin it now at any rate, and continue as lopg as possible.” "Will you use the money you are saving on the laundry, mother?” asked Helen quickly. -I shouldn’t want you to do that.” “Oh, not at all, dear,” said Mrs. Hooper. “I don’t believe in that plan of transferring the few dollars yon save on one Item In your budget to another one, or even to lump the entire sum that may be saved each month and use It for some special purpose.” "Well, I should think It would be all the same In the end,” observed Helen. “Not as far as preserving the equilibrium of your budget Is concerned,” said

Mrs. Hooper. "If I save $3 that was Ellen's salary out of my operating expenses, that balance stays there each week and at the end of a month if I wish to spend the accumulation it must be put into something that comes under the head of operating expenses like bouse supplies or house furnishings or help or light or heat or telephone, and not be spent for food or clothes—except in case of emergency," added Mrs. Hooper, “und then I should use It, of course—but reluctantly.” “Well, I don’t quite see what you mean,” remarked Helen. “I'll explalu It to you at the end of this month when I make up my balances In my account book,” answered Mrs. Hooper, as she put the children's luncheon on the table, “and I’ll show you also how we win squeeze the 50 cents a week for your dancing lesson out of our s’lm little “advancement budget" that only allows us $156 a year and has to cover club dues, books and magazines (which we read

As a result the library Is constantly embarrassed by calls from club women and other serious readers for the new books by authors of recognized literary merit.
