The prize Mrs. Secretary of the Treasury OWADAYS it is becoming more and more the practice,' N particularly among younger people, to regulate expendi. ture of income by the budget system. To the wife is delegated the task of keeping the family expenses within set limits--she is the real secretary of the family treasury. She must count the pennies and stretch them to their utmost buying power, The modern woman knows how to make a dollar purchase one hundred cents' worth of value. She reads the advertise- ments in her daily newspaper and notes what is being adver- tised that she needs. She scans them closely to know what is newest and best in clothes, in foods, in utilities that will make the home work easier, the little luxuries that will make it more comfortable. Yet her purchases are regulated by the budget , --advertising helps her to keep within bounds, Such is the value of advertising to the woman in the hone. It is her faithful adviser, ever ready to tell her what, when and _ where to buy and how much to pay.
