The point is that you cannot do @.. miracle of purchasing unless you know exactly what you are doing. You can't rush out for a clothes buy- ing spree at any moment that the fancy strikes you and then expect your budget to figure up at the end of the year to anything like $200. But if you are systematic, if you buy iog- fealty and well, if you visualize the that each frock and article ‘of apparel ts to serve, then by follow- ing a budget plan, you will be able to buy all of your necessary wardrobe within the stated total. ‘These are the actual items and fig- A Tweed Suit That Does for All the Year and Falls Within the $200 Budget System.

And the suit, if you are wise, will probably carry through at least a year and a half. All of these little matters reduce the strain on the budget most mate- rially and enable you to sink your surplus dollars in, perhaps, lingerio that 1s a trifle more expensive, or an extra hat, or an added pair of shores —all according to the specialized direction in which your dress fancy leads you. ‘These prices, naturally, are average. Your own preference may be to sub- tract a little something from the suit one and fut it on somewhere else. But there has been malice aforethought in laying the largest sum to the sult, for if that portion of your wardrobe is well done it gives your dressing a certain standard of style which puts you in the class beyond reproach. 1I¢ it fits well and is made of good ma- terlal, then it can journey to the cleaner’s and the presser’s times be- yond number, and after each axcur- sion it will emerge at the “brand new” stage to delight you afresh and make you glad that you allotted to its purchase the largest amount of money, Each of the articles contained on this list has been priced according to standard markings in the shops about town. But it stands to reason that if you arrange to watch the sales, you can make your allotment go much further. Of course some of you are too busy to do this—to euit your time to the time when those attractive sales take place, are almost forced standard things at their standard prices. But if you can be a sale hound you will be able to extract a great deal of satisfaction in dressing by seeing just how much you can manage to get for your money. Many end-of-the-season frocks carry over into the next season and following ones with the greatest agility. It re- mains only for you to choose the ones that are most generally useful and not confined to any one specialized season. If you can make your own clothes, or some of them, then this budget is not for you. This is for the girl who by necessity must have all of her In that case you into buying the Can You A YEAR clothes made for her and who prefers, asa time saver jf nothing else, to find them readymade. For her there are many pitfalls unless she is a very canny person, She must know values and where to find them before she can hope to keep to this outlined budget with the maximum of success. In other words, it requires great effort of understanding on her part to make up for the extra dollars that she might have spent. It would be fun to count up your clothes expenditure for the past year to see just how much you have spent and then to calculate where you can peel down the costs and what un- necessary purchases you can eliminate for the year to come. July is a splendid time to begin your private fiscal year and to see how much you can save on this matter of dress, de- manding of yourself at the same time that you keep up your established style if not miake it better than it was. If you have any economy thoughts to add to this outlined scheme of ex- penditure, let me know about them It is time for us all to get together now and learn to buy our clothes ac- cording to the retailers’ new standards of prices and profits. We do not want to spend money just for the sake of spending it. But we do want to be the best dressed women in the world on the least amount of money, By Roy L.

You know, the Stryvers have been married just twenty-five years next month. Of course, they have a lot of rich friends and could expect to get heaps of solid silver presents. That's the trouble with getting old while you are poar. If you ure poor, your friends, of course, are poor too, and you only get a few little things in silver. But the rich have everything. And what do you think of a divorce between th. Stryvers? Well, who'll be next? “There's no solid si with a divorce after being married twenty-five years, then?" asked Mr. “No, isn't it too bad?" replied Mrs. Jarr. “If it were the custom, at least one would have the consolation o: having solid silver gifts from friends as well as alimony from a hustand. “I knew she was thinking of cele- ) brating her silver wedding — Mrs Stryver, I mean—because months ago she told me about it, and she has al § luded to it often.

"It saves me having to buy some- thing for Mrs. Stryver that I cuuldn’t afford to get for myself. But I was told that Mrs. Stryver knew how Mr. Stryver has been carrying on for the longest time, but she was trying to hold off from suing him till she had held her silver anniversary and got all her presents, “Whatcha got for supper?” asked Mr. Jarr, turning his mind from the social notes of the neighborhood, “Don't you think of anything else but your meals? retorted Mrs, Jarr sharply. ‘You're as bad oa old M Dusenberry's son.

You can usually tell a bride-to-be—but seldom tell her enough to make her send back the wedding presents! mr MAN deliberately marries a human down pillow and then spends the rest of his life regtetting that his wife doesn’t ‘understand’ him. As if a woman with feathers where her brains should be can under- stand anything—or anybody! One difference between the old-fashioned woman and her modern sister is that when the former fainted she considered herself a heroine—and when the latter happens to be guilty of such a thing she considers her- self a darned fool!
