One of the most famous in-door sports ruled only by one's conscience is that of spending other people's money, and whether It bo huge sums by heads of organizations or the con tents of the husband's pay-envelope- by the v housewife, the rules of the game are the same. As this campaign of Thrift is di rected especially to the house-wife, wo will consider bar and her ways. The universal idea is that the" income earned by the husband Is the property of both and so it should be but it is nevertheless true that the duties of housewife and mother can, by man agement and system be lightened con siderably, or shirked and made a bur den. At tho present time wo hear much senseless railing against tho ln dlfferance of Capital to tho physical welfaro of Labor, and ycjt nover In the history of tho world wore so many safeguards thrown around the worker or so many benefits of health. Insurance, pensions and bonus offered to the Intelligent opperator as today, but how about the homes of labor? We all know with what acclaim tho pay-envelope is received, what sort of reception is staged for these giants of toil upon their return to the bosom of their families? How many wives count the expend ed energy, tho nervous tension, exert ed often to the breaking point, the nover lifted burden of family respon sibility that dally drives them on and on proded by tho over increasing de mands and desires of the present day. Not many women consider their men after they leave tho house, tho daily grind becomes a matter of course and ff tho homo Is mismanaged tho chil dren nogloceted and debts pile up, tho trouble Is laid on tho inadequate pay- envelope, tho Capitalist who furnishes tho needed employment Is execrated and tho shiftless wife escapes. To such homes as these Is this campaign directed. Thrift to be exercised in every movement of tho family life, tho prop er care of health, the preservation of one's possessions, the restoration of tho mending basket and the deter mination of tho wife to jealously guard tho expenditure of tho hard earnul money of tho huslmnd. Such a course will tiear out by tho' roots one of the greatest contributors to the present unrest. MRS. STANLEY ORR, Press Correspondent. ::o:: (Advertisement.) A Correction. Editor ' of Tribune: The North Platto Telegraph on Thursday pub lished a false account of tho fire In the Bechon livery barn and an inti mation that I carried heavy insurance on horses.
