C\, OUT. 29. 1?09 Keeping House For Coin I or t He was wise who wrote: "Half the sting of poverty or of aui all means Is gone vrUen one keeps bouee (or one'* own oomfort nod not for the comment of one's own v neighbors. " Deny it as we will, few of ue have the moral force to aet| up a atandard of our own, based upon our own Incomes and our own particular home environments. We oommit the folly of regulating ourj expenses by the income of aome one else. If the Browns across tiie street hang up expansive lace cur< tains, wc are discontented until I lace curtaina have gone up at our windows, no matter how much amaller our iucome may bo than ' that of the Browns. Jf the Smiths put down a velvet carpet, our neat and pretty ingrain becomes an eye sore to us. We are extremely mind ful of what our neighbors will think about many tilings, that ought not to concern them in the least. Wc have no standard of our own. Our dress and even our ta bles must bo regulated by the standard of others. We have not the courage nor the independence to be indifferent to the comment of our neighbors.. This- form of mor al cowardice is causing many fam ilies to live beyond their incomes. They can face debt and forfeit their self respect easier tfjan tliey can face the unfavorable comment of their neighbors and friends. The extent to which this imitation of others is carried would be ludi crous did it not bring so much un happiness in its train. It is fre quently the direct cause of the dis cord and discontent that have driv en happiness from the family hearthstone. Let us have a stand ard of our own, based upon our own tastes, our own incomes, our own ueeds and let us cheerfully and bravely adhear to this standard, heedless of that dreadful bugbear.: "What will the neighbors any." ?
