YRS LIzAsEra THOMPSON

Dear Mrs. Thompson: ] have been
married nearly a month and have
never met my husbands father and
mother. My husband says it is proper
for me to go to his peoples house and
make their acquaintance and l say that
they should come to our house first.
Please tell me which of us is right.
MRS. w.
Technically you are right. as you are
the newcomer in the family; but 1t Is
a point not much insisted on and fully
as many brides-to-be and brides go to
the husbands home as are called on
by his parents.
If my husband. wanted me to go to
call on his people 1 should certainly
do it, if l were you, to show him
was ready in every way to do a
daughters part There may be many
reasons why his parents cannot come
to see you without great inconveni-
elce. At any rate a wife is always
the gamer if she manifests a friend
Iy spirit to the husbands people.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: am a
young man of "a. l am the only sup
not long ago a young lady and l know
l could love her very much, but have
never called on her or paid her any at
tention, as l am not earning enough to
support two families. What would you
advise me to do-avoid society entire
ly? L. L.
Certainly not That is not a nor
NAL or happy existence. l am sure
there must be some arrangement
that could be made so that it would
be possible for you to marry. How
old is your sister? She will soon be
self-supporting and then by helping
her the two could live together or
you could have the mother in your
home and could marry.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: Can you give
me a recipe for hoarhound candy to
use for a cough? A NJ.
Steep a heaping tablespoon of dried
hoarhound leaves in one cup of boil
ing water for one hour. Strain through |
cloth and add two cups of brown sugar. /!
Stir over the fire until the sugar is |
