several sheets of paper covered' with
figures and the norcll Murchlsoni had
'Just laid down.
, "Mildred," ho snld solemnly, "wo
might Just as well look the facts In
the face."
"Oh, what's the use ' sho asked,
"when tho facts are so dlsagrccablo?
Let's talk about tho New Year's evo
party."
"Hut, my, dear clilld," hcgan-Murchl-son,
firmly, "hero wo 'are. Tit tho be
ginning of n new ear "
"Don't call mo 'your dear cjjlld.' "
protested his wife, "I'm Just as old
as you aro nearly," sho added, 'hast
ily. "Hero wo are at tho boglnnlg of a
now year," repcated'her husband, "and
wo haven't as much money In tho
bank by $180 as no had last New
Year's."
"Well, If w6 hacn't, wo hnvcrft,"
Mrs. Murchlson said lightly, "and I
don't seo how wo ore golug to get It
back by pawing over a lot of Billy old
figures."
"That Isn't tho ldoa," pursued Mur
clilson, gently. I'm simply 'trying to
point out to you that wo could do bet
ter next icat."
.. .Mrs. Murchlson faced about brightly
. and. clapped her hands on tho tablo.
,'All right)" sho exclaimed. "What aro
I'wo going to dot
-That's tho girl," said her husband
encouragingly, patting the folded
hands. "We've got to cut down our
expenses next' year." .
"Oh, but how can we, Billy?" walled
Mrs. Murchlson. "I simply can't go
Into a cheaper flat.. I'vo got all my
electric cooking things fixed and all
that."
"That Isn't necessary," explained
Murchlbon; "there are other things no
can drop. I-ct'a begin by cutting out
this New Year's cto business down
town." Mildred sat up straight and stared
at him.
"Vhyr Billy!" sho exclaimed, "we

260 cquaro mlies. Cocpanut und other

names from an American sailor, I'd
mund Fanning, who dlscoierod It in
1798. Fanning and Christmas belong
to Great Drltaln.
Fanning Island Is midway oetween
Honolulu and Suva, FIJI. With tho
uxcoptron of a few Manlhokat fisher
men from ono' of tho neighboring Is
lands, Fanning is ono of tlio most
Joncly srots on (ho face of the earth.

"Nothing of the sortl' retorted Mur
chlspn. "Don't worry about the seats.
They'll get somebody else to take our
places without any trouble. If wo go
down there It will simply menn spend
ing' $20 "or $25 onvsupper and drinks
and wlno and tips for a lot of people
wo see about four times a year. Now
what's the uso of that? If we're going
to cconomltc, we mutt begin by cut
ting out tho luxuries."
"Well, Will Murchlson I If you call
tho ordinary social occasions of our
position meeting our friends and ex
changing greetings If you call thoso
'luxuries,' we might as well move Into
n cheap tenement some place and hldo
away from bveiybody. ut mo tell )ou
that If you don't goito that, party Now

Just tell them all that jou slaed at

, Mrs. Murchlson pretended therewith
to read a magazine.
"Oh, cry well!" ho said, humbly, "If
you to set on going, I suppose wo can
postpone the economizing until tho
new year roally starts."
Mj-s. Murchlson was Instantly molll
fled. "That's a dear bo," sho said.
''and now wo 11 find somo better way
to sayo money. What else can you
think of?"
"Well, I had been thinking." began
'Murchlson rather timidly, "that It will
bo rather a needless expense for )ou
to go down to St. Louis to Islt your
mother next spring."
i "Well, of nil things!" his wlfo burst
out. "It that Isn't Just ltko n manl Of
jcourso. If wo must economize, It's got

to geo my poonild mother for a day. If
I had ever thought jou were going to

she walled, "I would nocr havo mar

Murchlson slowly gatheied up tho
papers and tho account book whllo
Mildred buried her faco on her arm
and wept copiously. Then ho walked
around and put a consoling hand on
tho hcalng shoulders.
"Novcr mind, dear,'' ho Bald, "It's all
