A FEMININE FINANCIEB.

[Christian at Work.]

Man^' women are extravagant, absurdly and thoughtlessly so, and ruin their husbands financially. Many men are miserly and mean, thoughlessly so, absurdly and unwisely so, and destroy not only their wife's happiness, but their own also. All this arises from a lack of perfect trtist in each other. Little Mrs. Gray's story in a late number of Peterson's tells us a good lesson. The young husband and wife had just risen from a nicely spread table, and the room was neatly and tastefully furnished.

There was no indication of poverty there, yet Mrs. Gray's voice and manner were faltering, as she asked for some postage stamps. "How many?" asked her husband, curtly. "Three will do. I thought I would write to mother and the girls." "Did you ever reckon up, my dear, how much you spend for postage stamps in the course of a year?" asked Mr. Gray, as he lit his fragrant cigar. "Well, let us see. You write at least five letters a week, which is 15 cents, and 53 times 15 are $7.80 a year, to say nothing of paper and envelopes. I have not a correspondent in the world outside of my business." "Your friends," said the wife, "live near you, while mine are in another state. Do you wish me to give up my writing to them?" And her face took an extra tinge of color. "By no means. I merely mentioned the cost of the thing. But I must go. Goodbye." "Albert I" she said timidly.

Mr. Gray turned back. "Can you leave me $5 or (6? I want to go down town to-day." "Five or six dollars!" exclaimed Mr. Gray in astonishment "What on earth can you want with $5 or $6?" "I knew you would wonder, but I have needed some money for along time to get some necessary articles." "I gave you $2 last week." "1 know it, and I used it for materials to work up our church fair." "Church fiddlesticks!" said Mr. Gray contemptuously. "Why I can't see what you need with |5 or $0." "Here is a list of what I need," said Mrs. Gray, handing a little slip of paper to her husband: One pair kidgloves, $2 one pair kid slippers, $3 oue pair Balbriggan hose, $1 Silesia, 25 cents crepe de lisse, 50 cents—total, $5.75. "Crepe de lisse 1 What is thatl" "Ruffling for the neck." v4 "Will it wash!" •, 7, «No." fV "I thought so. A sheer waste of money. What fools women are! What would a man think of putting apiece of stiff, white papery nothing around his neck that costs 50 cents. And $4 for gloves and slippers! Well, 1 must say, Annie, ybu are growing extravagant. I pay for your dresses, bonnets and all the essentials, without a murmur—that is said he with sundry recollections to the contrary, "when they come within reasonable bounds. But these little things—things which are of no earthly account—I should think you might do without." "They are what no lady can do without. The slippers are to save my nice walkingboots. You yourself noticed my gloves last Sunday, and said you detested a soiled or torn glove. Stockings are rather necessary in our land, and—" "Say no more. But why is it that these wants come all at once!" "For the simple reason that, hitherto, I have bought them myself, with money earned by plain sewing. Bat since my illness—in autumn—it hurts my side to sew much, and 1 have had to give it up."

Mrs. Gray enjoyed her husband's horrified look. "Plain sewing! Annie, I thought you had more pride." "I had too much pride to beg of you what 1 oould earn myself," said she with some spirit. "Well, here is ,$4.50. Try to make that da" And he hurried off. "3*5^

Mrs. Gray sighed. "He means well," she said, "bnt men seem to think women are like children, not to be trusted with money."

Meanwhile Mr. Gray was soliloquizing. "Strange how extravagant women ara Annie is the best little wife in the world, but she does not know the worth of money any more than a child. That $4.50 will be spent before night Women can't keep money."

Mrs. Gray went down town as intended but she walked instead of riding, in order to save her money. While down, she felt faint and hungry from her walk, and would have liked a lunch, but she had no money to spare. "Oh! by the way, Annie, did you go down town to-day! asked Mr.

?ou

Gray

at supper that

night .41 "Yes." "Spent every cent, I'll be bound," jokingly. "No, I have exactly 2 cents left but I walked both ways, got no crepe de lisse, and went without luncheon although faint with hunger."

Mr. Gray looked shocked. -y jj "Why did you not come to mef "Because it was out of my way and beoaose. to tell the truth, I felt too croa."

-mjw mw tamr "Tas with you:" and poor Annie's grievances bant forth. "To be going along the street hungrier than any beggar, while my husband is known as the successful Mr. Gray! To have no money in my pocket because my husband thinks I mm not to be trusted! Before I married you I was in business the same as you that is, I earned my living by teaching you earned yours by trading. Now, suppose when we married, you had given up your business to assist me or because it interfered with your new duties, and I allowed you no money to spend as you chose. I dressed you well, to be sure but gave you no money without the whys and wherefores and whithers being inquired into in short treated you as you do mef "You exaggerate the case, Annie. Men and women are differently situated. I should think you would be glad to be saved the trouble of earning a livelihood." "But just consider the disadvantages of an empty purse. Put yourself in my place. How would you like it?" "Why—if I only had to ask—first rate." "Well, then, suppose you let me carry the pocket-book for a week." "But, Annie, it isn't practicable. You couldn't attend to business at the store." "Of ooune not It is only your personal expenses I will regulate. You come to me for what you wish to spend for yourself, that is all and give me your word that you will take no money from the store." "All right ril do it, just to show you that it is easy enough. Here's the pocketbook." And he gave it into her hand. "But I'll take a quarter, first, to begin on!" "What do you want of a 'quarterf "Cigars." "Well, here are two 10-cent pieces try to make that do. Did you ever reckon up how

uch your cigars oost in a year! Let me sea, smoke at least two a day, at an average cost of 10 cents apiece, which amount to$1.4C a week. Now, 52 times 140 makes $72.80 & year, to say nothing of tbose you give to your friends. A hundred dollars will scarcely cover your expenses in that line." "As our friend, Abigail Stillman, says, 'Who'd a-thunk it,'" said Mr. Gray, laughing, but he was surprised to find the sum so larger

The next morning Mr. Gray had gone some distance from the house before he remembered that he had only 25 cents. "I'll risk it," sftid he to himself. "Perhaps I'll not want to buy anything. I'll show Annie that a man can do without money." "Hello, Gray I" cried a voice, interrupting his reflections. "What is the brain study about?" It was his old friend, Frank Raymond.

The two men had not met since Mr. Gray's uarriage, and as Frank was to remain in lown for a week, Mr. Gray invited him home.

He lit a cigar and handed its mate to Frank as he did this, the two conversed of old times, until they reached Mr. Gray's place of business, when they separated. Frank agreed to be at Gray's at 6 o'clock. Annie was apprised of his coming by a note from her husband.

Going home that night, as was his invariable custom, he ran into Benton's to buy some cigars. Benton was surprised to see him drop the dozen he had taken up. "Are they not good," inquired the dealer. "We think them our choicest." "They are good, but on' second thought I will not take any to-night"

Mr. Gray had always purchased cigars as he used them but now he wished he had a box at home. However, he decided to ask his wife for some money, and run out and fill bis case without his friend's knowledge. Twenty-four hours had passed, and he had already begun to experience a feeling of shame, and a disinclination to ask for money. A thought of Annie crossed his mind. "Pshaw I she doesn't have to treat her friends to cigars," he muttered.

Frank Raymond was already at his house, and Annie had a tempting little supper for them and Annie was looking her prettiest

When supper was over, he took Annie aside and asked for a dollar, which she gave him grudgingly. Then he excused himself for a moment and bought some cigars. They were wretched affairs, however, and filled the house with a villainous odor, for he had to get them at anew place, Benton's being too far off.

The next day the two friends started out together, when Mr. Gray, with an air of having forgotten something, said: "Excuse me a minute." "I'll go back with you if you have forgotten anything," said Mr. Raymond.

Mr. Gray clapped his hand to his pocket. "I thought I had forgotten my pocketbook, but I haven't," he said. "So, it's all right," and then he hurried on, his cheeks tingling with shame at the deceit But he could not risk having his friend go back with him and stand try while he asked for money.

Mr. Gray was lucky that day. He had no calls for money, and he had half a dozen of those horrid cigars left, a couple of which he smoked on the street after his friend left him. In fact, he concluded to risk another day in the same way. But on this day he realized the old adage, "It never rains but it pours," for from being asked to change a bill to getting his coat ripped, and asking for credit at his tailor's, the day was a series of mortifications.

Annie was unaware of all this. In fact, she thought her husband was failing to realize the situation, so, when, at night, Mr. Gray asked her for money to spend the next day, she wickedly put him off with some excuse, and ingeniously evaded the request until he was forced to prefer it before his friend. "You want a $1 or $9! What do you want with a $1 or $2?" "There, Annie, don't bother a fellow. I'm In a hurry."

But with grave deliberation she drew out a quarter and laid it down, then another, and another. "Let me see—three quarters—75, 10 is 85 —10—95, and here is a 3- cent piece—98 cents. Will that dor "Yes," and Mr. Gray hustled them into his pocket and hurried from the room.

He was in hopes his friend would inquire into the cause of the scene, when he would tell him of the compact and how it originated. It would then pass as a joke. But Mr. Raymond did not make any remark. Instead, he thought to himself: "Good gracious! What a grind she is! And I thought her so pretty. I never supposed Albert would make such a meek husband. Catch me getting married and having quarters doled out to me in that way!"

He pitied his friend's embarrassment, but did not appear to notice it. Instead, he chatted unconcernedly of old friends and past times. Suddenly turning a corner they met two mutual friends. Hand shakings and inquiries followed, and the four had so much to say that Mr. Gray decided to send a note to his partner, and spend the fore, noon with his friends.

The party now adjourned to a restaurant, •Od Mr. Raymond, aware of the exact

•awuair ot ma, mr. mays, tunas, oraerou lunah. The next day, which was Sunday, Mrs. Gray, without being asked, gravely handed bar husband 50 cents. Mr. Raymond was present^ but did not appear to notice it He was apparently engrossed in the book be was reading. But he heard Mr. Gray ask: "What's that for! Oh, the contribution box! Thank youl" But to himself he added: "Why not save it to go with the 25 cents I have already, so as not to be compelled to ask for money on Tuesday? Then I can succeed in getting some for Monday's trip without the knowledge of my friends, and thi« farce will end without any more unpleasant-

Before separating, a little excursion to Beech island was proposed for Monday. Mr. Gray invited them, meantime, to spend the evening at his house. Annie was in excellent spirits and sang, and played, and was altogether charming. Mr. Raymond, remembering the money, decided that matrimony was deceptive.

Monday morning came only too soon for, try as he would, he could not get the attention of Annie, when he endeavored to broach the projected trip. Fidgeting with bis knlfa and fork, he cleared his throat at last, and made a plunge.

Mrs. Gray elevated hear eyebrows. "To the island! Pray what for! It is hardly the time for excursions."

Mr. Raymond really pitied his friend's evident distress, so be said, jokingly: "Why, you aee, Mrs. Gray, we want to gel off for a time, as we used to when boys."

The lady smiled grimly and said: "Albert is, as you see, too extravagant by half. I cant, in the present state of our finances, give my consent to his going." Witk. these words, spoken with great composure, sh$ walked off, leaving the gentleman to themselves. "Albert, I never would stand that," said Frank, vehemently. "To be tutored like a schoolboy! Haven't you any money at the (tore! If not, call on me for any amount, and let us hurry, or we shall be late." "No, I am afraid I cannot, go. I am pledged not to titke any from the store, and it wowld not be right to aesepS any from ron." •, v"

Glad of an excuse* Mr. Gray then told hit friend the secret of his wife's conduet "Whew? so that is it," said Frank. "Well, Cm glad to have my faith in womankind restored but isn't she overdoing the matter! Did you ever refuse her money before others?" "I think I did, last summer, when Mrs. Ogden was visiting her. They wished to visit a friend residing in Biddleford. I thought it was foolish and told my wife so, and finally refused my wife the money. The truth is," apologetically, "I had met with heavy losses, and felt that we must economize." "Why not have allowed her to use her own judgment Perhaps she intended to economize in other ways," said Frank. "I believe she said something of the kind. But, to tell the truth, I had got into the way of thinking that women needed to be continually curbed, or they would run into extravagancies. "It's a shame to treat a high-spirited woman in that way." "I realize it now fully, more fully than you can, unless you go through With my experience. Annie said she had done plain sewing to pay for things she needed rather than ask me for the money. I understand it now I would far rather have earned the money for our trip by sawing wood than have asked for it- Fancy having to always -ask!" "Do you knotv, Albert, I am glad this has happened? I may marry some time in fact, I'm thinking of it strongly, and now I shall avoid the course you have taken. Otherwise I presume I might have done just the same. I believe a great many men do." "Do? Why, yes. My mother never had a penny without asking father for it, and she helped to earn it all, and was prudence and industry personified. Pll turn over a new leaf. Ah, here comes our friend."

Mr. Raymond, to Mr. Gray's great relief, said it would not be possible to go on the proposed trip, owing to unforeseen circumstances, whereupon Mr. Gray, in an offhand manner, proposed that as Frank could not go, they should all come to his house that evening again. "My wife will be glad to see you," said he.

The week had passed, and "Richard was himself again," or couid be if he chose but his wife had mirrored his past actions so truly and forcibly that he had no wish to repeat himself. Annie had taken care to curb his extravagancies by giving him always a little less than he asked for, and invariably inquiring just how he spent it, and, meantime reckoning up how much he had each day, wilt great exactness. All this, as he knew, was copied from his own custom. Besides, he reflected, if he found it so disagreeable for a week, how much more so must it seem, year after year, with no prospect of a change! In fact, he felt himself to be the meanest man in existence. 'Tis one-half to own it, and the other half to reform," we suspect. "There, Albert," said his wife, "I am glad the farce has ended."

It was Tuesday evening at half-past 6, precisely, when Mrs. Gray said this. At the same time she handed her husband his pocketbook: and then returned to her seat

Mr. Gray counted the money carefully, and then divided it into two equal piles. This accomplished, he crossed over to hit wife and placed one in her lap, saying: "Henceforth we shall share alike. Buy what you choose. I have faith in your prudence and judgment I am not infallible. Why need I sit in judgment upon you!"

Mrs. Gray's eyes glistened with pride and happiness as she replied: "Believe me, Albert, you shall never regret this for now I shall have an opportunity to U9e my reasoning faculties."

He is one of the choicest story-tellers in town, but he laments the rarity of good, clean, new stories. Once upon a trip he got two new stories, and upon his return to New York he went at once to a banquet then in session. The speakers had been working off old jokes all the evening, and the audience was tired. When he announced that he bad two new stories, he was received with all the honor of a returning conqueror. The cheering was almost unbounded. He told the stories on the condition that he should have two weeks' monopoly of them. "The difficulty with a joke," he said a few nights ago, "is that as soon as it is told it becomes public property. Tbe demand for good things at the clubs, at dinners, and in business leisure, is so great that a new story travels all around. Every joka, if passable, secures a wide circulation."
