Follow them daily In an interesting review of their home life and learn to meet the conditions of the high cost of living with them.) THURSDAY. “Briggs told me that his little girl was ill again,” said Henry Hooper to his wife as he was leaving the house, “and he's awfuly worried over another doctor’s bill. What do you suppose is the matter with that child ? Betty is never sick like that.” “She probably isn’t getting the proper things to eat,” answered Mrs. Hooper. “Too much meat, I imagine. Mrs. Briggs was the only woman at the club last, week who opposed my suggestion that more milk and less meat should be used in making up our menu 9.” “Perhaps if you talked with her Mary it might do some good,” Henry added as he took his departure, “I feel downright sorry for Briggs somehow." “Well, I'll try,” said Mrs. Hoopesr, “but Mrs. Briggs is a very difficult person to tell anything to. Perhaps I shall be able to get something over at the club tomorrow afternoon that would be a suggestion for her.” When Mrs. Hooper went shopplg that afternoon her purchases included the stockings which she needed for herself. Buying hosiery for her family was not Just so many pairs of stockings of any make that happened to look durable or seem cheap for the quality, when she was purchasing them.

was the best waa assisted by marking each purchase of anew brand, in a different color and watching which ones came last to the darning basket. In the case of her own stockings she bad discovered several years ago that a brand made by certain mills in New England gave her the quality, durability and style that no other kind did. So when she started forth to purchase hosiery she wasted no time looking about or depending upon the advice of the shopkeeper but ordered her special “makes” of stockings ss she did a brand of canned vegetables or breakfast food. “Have you and Roger decided on any plan for your China famine fund?” asked Mrs. Hooper when Helen was pouring the tea In the afternoon. “Oh, yes; I talked it over with the girls when they were here on Friday," answered Helen, "and they all said we ought to do something. There are six of us and if each one earns $1 next month, together it will make enough to save one life.” “What do you plan to do to earn the money ?” questioned Mrs. Hooper. “Well, we put a notice on the bulletin board at school today and said we could be hired to do extra things or go on errands until each one of us had earned $1 for the starving Chinese, and then signed our names to it,” said Helen as she took her mother’s empty cup. “Did you have any response?” “Oh, yes; I’ve earned 10 cents already. I carried a parcel post package to the postoffice for my teacher on the way home,” replied Helen delightedly. “I've planned to earn my $6,” added Roger, “and I already have a Job for batnrday afternoon. Mr. Brown has a trunk full of old papers end receipts that he has asked me to straighten out for him. They have, been in his attic for years, and he wants them all sorted so he will know what to keep and what to destroy. Then there are several other things I

Jupiter rules dominantly for good this day, according to astrology. Saturn, also, is in benefic aspect, but Neptune and Uranus are adverse. It is a time for planning large enterprises and beginnings to lay the foundations for future commercial successes. Business is well directed, for the stars presage a steady improvement in finanIcial conditions. The affliction of the Moon, ruler of the eleventh, is bad for legislators, who will confront many severe anxieties. Persons whose blrthdate it is should avoid all flirtation during the coming year, for it will be hazardous. Business will be very profitable. Children born on this day will be great favorites and will probably be successful all through their lives, which should be very happy.—Copyright, 1921.
