How to Meet Bills

My husband earns three hundred and twenty dollars a month, and I seemed to have no ready cash when the bills came in. Now I have a number of envelopes, each one labeled with one item as cash, electricity, rent, furniture, insurance, etc. I figure onefourth of the monthly cost of these items, thus finding the weekly average. Each week I take out from my husband's wages the amount required for the various items for a week and place this amount in the envelopes. At the end of the month the money is ready and I no longer need to worry. -Mrs. L. A. S., Toledo, O.
