The government cannot give it away, yet none of the rightful owners can be induced to take it. It represents unclaimed interest on the public debts. Somewhere in nooks and crannies places are the government's interest checks for the money which never havo been cashed. Some of them never will be presented, others may be brought around in time, and some are being held by cautious investors. 0 One citizen has more than waiting for him and holds the checks for it. He was recently invited to cash in and made a trip to Washington to tell Treasury officials the chock? were his property; he would cash them when he pleased, or burn them up if he wished. If he does the latter his money will be held in the vaults until Congress, perhaps, might dispose of it. The Treasury can do nothing but keep it. The contractor who laid the first pavement upon Pennsylvania avenue from the Capitol to the White House has $21,000 waiting for him; it hasbeen there many years, but the Treasury has never been able to find the right payoe, as the contractor failed and his affairs became involved in litigation which never has been settled.

We all have among our acquaintances the girl who, without being in the least good looking, always manages to look neat and well dressed Perhaps she hEB only a small dress allowance, and yet whenever you happen to meet her she looks smart and attractive, while other girls, with twice the money at their command, too often look shabby and dowdy. What is the neat girl's secret ? Extravagance Perhaps the Most Prolific Cause of Subterfuge and Embarrassment. Of all the sins which beset womankind today in every section of society and every degree and every class, the sin of extravagance is por-hnna the rnnaf nrnliflo nf aiilitfrfiicrrj and embarrassment. Economy is every day becoming more of an irksome task than the exercise of a virtue which leads ultimately to comfort and peace of mind. These opinions sound very much like copybook platitudes, but their primitive familiarity does not make them any the less true. In the old days an extra vaganti woman became notorious. She wa3 one of a few, and she was generally to be found among those who had been suddenly pitchforked into heights of eminence from a comparatively low position. The wardrobe excesses of Josephine form appalling reading, with 'heir hundreds of sets of things, and evidence more than anything tha vulgarity of the parvenu. Maria Theresa, on the other hand; 'he second wife of Napoleon, conducted her expenditures on moderate lines, although springing from' ore of the most ancient courts of -r.uropo.

The man who keps his troubles himself may avoid a lot more. to Nothing more nor less than taking care of her clothes; she has a place for everything and everything is kept in its place; her ribbons, gloves, handkerchiefs, etc., are not all huddled together in one drawer, neither do they lie about on the tables and chairs until they are wanted. Every article uf apparel is put away with the most scrupulous care, first being dusted, shaken or mended, as the case may be. Thre is a groat difference, too. in the way in which girls put on their clothes; and very often a girl dressed in a shirtwaist and plain spirt will look twice as neat as the one clad in an expensive gown, the reason being "simply and solely this: The one has put her dross on anyhow, the other has taken care that all shall be neat and fresh. Jt is the duty of nil parents to ce that their children are taught from their babyhood to take proper care of their wearing apparel; for the child who lets clothes drop oil her and lie in a heap on the floor invariably grows into the careless, untidy woman, with whom we are so familiar.
