Answers worried"

Worried--You will forgive me if | say
! think you are at fault in this thing.
Not that your husband is not very much
more at fault. but you should not give
into such treatment You should not
in any way countenance such thing.
You should tell him plainly that his ac-
tions are breaking your heart and that
II he does not stop his behavior at once
you will not stay with him.
That ought to bring him to his senses.
You have no right to let him think you
do not care, nor have you right (even
through your desire to efface self) to
allow him to do what is wrong, If you
can prevent IT, Have a talk with him
and see what you can do. Write me
again II can help you.

This is the burning tragedy that
came to our page on n cold white piece
OF paper. First there was related the
story of the wedding of two Young
people and then the eventually falling
OF the path by the young husband.
Then began the fight of woman to
lift herself and her babies high above
the mire. There are two kinds Of
homes in the world, the respectable
one and the one dragged down by dis
sipation and despair. This woman
made up her mind she would lift those
babies by the sheer might Of her
arm and keep them high, where re.
epectability dwels.
+ Oh, how hard she worked There
were little white lace petticoats for
those baby girls lest like wee petit
coats will. they might show and be-

the baby girls learned to say their
prayers and went to sleep each night
in great big, white bed that way
loving their God and their mother.
AND now they are grown up not

thirteen years. let US say They are
at the age when children begin to feel
the hurts that the world can hold and
no one will play with them. Their
