Many Questions
WOMAN is NO LONGER A
CONVENIENCE, BUT A
PARTNER

Dear Miss Grey: i am the
mother of four small chill
dren and am not thirty years
old. i have been married
eight years; but can't say I
have been happy, only as I
made myself SO with my
children.
My husband is fourteen
years older than 1 and very
quiet. In the evening he
rarely talks, but reads his
paper and is ready for bed.
1 have always done all my
work and sewing, and econo-
mixed in every way; but now
we have accumulated quite
a little property and 1 would
like to enjoy it. Miss Grey,
1 have not known what

good, but know 1 would feel
better If 1 were happy. 1 am
so sad and lonely for CONF

loves me; but 1 fail to see it.

Similar gains have been reported in
