Then, madam, I would suggest tbat you movo Into a cheaper bouse; you aro evidently living beyond your moans. Economy, is wealth. Economizo In tho matter of clothes and bouso rent. Cut your expenses, ex-penses, and then, perhaps, some day you will bavo a dlmo to spare a dlmo, mudam, that may bo the means of preventing pre-venting a hungry and thirsty fellow mortal from committing suicide; or it may be a quarter n coin of tbo value of S3 cents that will upholster tho dark clouds on tba horizon of his despairing soul with a sllvor-plated lining, and fill his stomach with Imported beer. Good day, fair lsdy." Tcxat Siftingi. |
