One upon a time ? and this is no fairy tale ? such casual disregard of the family budget was punishable by law. From the 13th through the 15th centuries Eng land. France. Italy and Greece had what wa? then known as the "sumptu ary laws" designed to hold in check over - lavish en tertaining and living by ? more financially fortun ate element. The limit a woman could spend for dresses, shoes, furs and jewels was quite^rigidly controlled by law. The old timers also took a dim view toward high living in the form of heavy outlays for food, furniture and shelter, hence they too were on the list. Perhaps there was a cer tain method in the mad ness of a few centuries ago, but it wouldn't work today. As a jnatter of fact, it seems to us that on oc casion the old man can be pretty fast with a buck. , Nowadays it seems a buck goes pretty fast . . . but one way of extending your dollar is by coming to ALLEN'S FLOWER SHOP. Youll find all onr flowers to be ABOVE -av erage, and onr prices BE LOW - average ... so you too can enjoy the luxury of BEAUTIFUL FLOW ERS. ?
