There is so much to pay out month after month running a household. A monthly charge like -your gas bill includes many items you pay for at one time. It simplifies the keeping of accounts. If you were able to itemize your gas bill—so much wv baking, so much for heating water on wash day, daily baths and showers, so much for heating water for cleaning floors and woodwork, etc., you would have an opportunity to see how During the month your hand turns a valve or faucet a thousand times and more for the many services gas renders easily, quietly and economically.

Are children a cause for responsibility and anxiety? Present government deficits mean a pauperized posterity. Every red cent, and the present balances are all in the red, must be paid in taxes.
