They have two chlld- Nn. "Her husband goes out a lot, but doesn't take her with him. He does not work, neitlier does she. They don't get along at all. They come out to our house quite a kit.

She knows I am writing you, so please try to help us. MIKE .\ND BROWN EYES" * I well understand your unhap- * piness in seeing an attractive * young woman so unhappy witli a * husband wlio publicly insults her. * You art- young yourself, and * idealistic. Her plight arouses all * your chivalry. You picture her as * a forlorn maiden in the clutches * of a modern villain, a rogue who * neglects and mistreats her, who * boasts about his conquests. You * believe her heart is breaking un- * der his recklessness. And you see * yourself as the knight sans re- * proche wlio will rescue her from * this misery, and carry her away * on his charger to. an eternal * dream of liappiness. * How different can be the real- * ityl If by some miracle these two * could be divorced and you were * to marry her, you would find * yourself chained to a woman who * could not manage one husband, and burdened with the responsi- * bility of two children that belong * to another man â€" children whom * you neither know well nor under- * stand, yet to whom you would * liave to be a good and understand- * ing father. * Remember, too, that this man's * boasting may be all talk. A Iius- * band docs not usually use such * language to his wife in public if * he is really serious about separat- * ing. .Many a weak male gives * himself away by his big words. * Keep yourself out of this. It * is too bad you have, evidently, * disclosed your feelings to this * wife; that you had no right to do, * nor had she to listen. Don't see * her alone; if they come again to * your home, leave. You must * have no influence on her now. If * she intends divorcing her luis- â- * hand, let it be because she has * good reason to â€" not because she * thinks she is in love with another * man. * Keep yourself busy with nice * girls who are single. There are * plenty of them about to amube * you, and take your mind off a * married woman. At your age, it * is wise to realize that you will * probably be in love with more * girls than one before you are * settled enougli to marry aiiy- * body. * • * "Dear Anne Hirst; Two years ago I met a man Itirough busiiics-. He has a wife *jk1 two children. I fell in love the first time I s:uv him. I thought lie tnd his wife were an ideal couple â€" but a year ago she told me they had been separated for three months. They both claim no love man, or stay where you can see each other often, your love will exists between them, and no tie», except financial. "Finally he fell in love with me. I don't tliink either of us has ever known what it means to love be- fore! We are both 40. I was brought up in a Christian home, and I want to do what is right and best for all of us. He told his wife he was madly in love with me, but she will never give him a divorce for fear it will ruin her prestige. "We both hold responsible posi- tions. I was offered a good job in another town, but when I went to be interviewed I felt the world had come to an end. H I could get a job in a certain field I would find comfort there, and as long as I knew he was getting along all right I could stand to stay away. "I want my life to mean some- thing. I certainly don't want to hurt anyone. Please advise me. THE OTHER WOMAN". DONT HURT YOURSELF * . In your anxiety not to hurt * others, don't overlook liurting * yourself. So long as you work with this 1 can lovf flourish. Since it cannot he ful- * filled, it can only grow more and * more tragic. You will live in in- * creasing resentment which might * readily become a bitterness which * could consume you. * Be realistic. * Take yourself away from this * daily association. Find the sort * of work you feel yourself fitted * for (in another city, if you can) * and bury yourself in it. * You need new faces, new ideas, * new surroundings. Nothing else * will help you so mucli. Among * them, you will be able to resign * yourself to the inevitable, and at * the same time develop fresli int- * erests and ambitions that will help * make your life the useful life you * want it to be, "meaning some- * thing" to others as well as vour- * self. * You have courage, and a will * wliich will not be denied. Once * you make the break, you will * wonder wliy you hesitated so * long. * You and this man tan keep in * touch frequently enough to be * assured, of each other's well be- * ing. Then you will find peace, at * least â€" which you can never know * so long as you are together. * * t When temptation comes, run away. We never can know how strong we will be in the face of it, so why court tragedy? Anne Hirst will help you find the courage you need. Write her at Box 1, 123 Eighteenth St.. New Toronni, Ont. â€" JV- lilE SPIRITUALIST told the widow that the message from her husband asked for cigarettes. "Where shall I send them?'" (he inquired. "Well," remarked the spiritualist, "you notice he didn't ask you for any matches." â€" Guthrie Center Times. CROSSWORD PUZZLE ACIUMS 1. Word of Borrow I. Biblical king ' 8. Tribe 15. MaA« a 1<mui II.

Rout Evil With Good Many children turn to "funny bobks" simply because there is no other kind of reading for them in their homes. It is shocking to dis- cover how many parents omit books in the family budget. Children will read good literature, if it is put within reach. As a matter of fact, most normal children will get a reasonably balanced literary diet if it is made available to them. Maybe a few more libraries more easily accessible to more children, could be an answer. Certainly, if parents buy a few good books and leave them where children can stumble on them, tlfere will be some- thing to take tlie place of tiie trash kids have been finding. It must not be forgotten, either, that a large part of "funny book" sales are to adults, not to children. If good books are provided, and youngsters still get an overdose of crime, sex, and violence, that will be the time to talk about swinging the ax of censorship.

She was blushing slightly as slie came out of tlie parlor of the new Mitcluim summer cottage. "Why did you leave it to me to greet the parson when he called?" she asked her mother. "Parson 1" exclaimed Mrs. Mitchum. "Don't be silly. That wa^ the doctor." Her daughter was visibly relieved. "That's all right then," she said. "I thought he was a little bit familiar for a parson."

HELPFUL HINTS FOR BUSY HOUSEWIVES Stale loaves may be made quite palatable by wrapping in a wet cloth for half a miimte. Take the cloth off, then bake in a slow oven for half an hour. » • ♦ The yolks of eggs, left over when baking require the white only, if dropped into a pan of boiling and salted water will cook and be ready for your noon salad. • * • When cooking pancakes dip the spoon in milk or water and the batter will drop off the spoon easily. • * • When peeling tomatoes scrape the skin gently with the back of the knife, then peel in the usual way. It will be found that tlie skins will' slip off easily. * • * If an egg has a very thin shell, or is chipped, and likely to crack when being boiled, add a few drops of vinegar to the water. ♦ • • To bak^ potatoes quickly, boil them in salted water for ten min- utes, then put them into the oven. The boiling water will heat them through more rapidly than if they were placed cold into the oven. Alarm Wrist Watch A discovery that will be of great benefit to a large number of peopi* has been made because a watch- maker heard a cricket chirrupins aa he walked in the mountains tt Swiatzerland. If sucft a tint inaect could make a sound clearly aiMlibIa from a distance of a dozen yarila, why, he thought, could he BOt make an alarm bell that was small enough to go in a wrist watch but yet noisy enough to wake a sleeperlf The upshot of his mountain wale was an alarm mechanism that worici on the principle of the cricket'a chir- rup. The cricket makes his distinct and penetrating noise by rubbioc the file-like edge of one wing agaioat the other. The watch maker pr<>- duced the same effect by setting a light hammer to vigrate against a thin metal diaphragm. The result is that now, in a case no bigger than that containing an ordinary wrist watch, lies both the merhanism aa4 the alarm bell. "This new alaros wrist watch," says R. E. Hum- phries, describing the discoTcry, "should in time make us more punc- tual in our habits, because for the first time you can carry the equiva- lent of an alarm clock around with you. Vou can set it to remind you of your appointments." ISSUE 12 â€" 1949 Sputting Kmm Look pretty for your Steady Freddie!
