The is no harm in going to the

Dear Mrs. Thompson: l am a
young married woman "a years old,
and we have six dear little children,
the oldest six years old. My husband
has never treated me right. He ID
mean to me and the children and new
err stays at home with me. He works
only when he feels like 1t, and that
isn't often. And what he does make
he spends in gambling and on other
women. He got job working on the
railroad, and worked pretty we'll until
he got a few pay days. Then he told
me he was going to work, and would
come in at 8 o'clock in the morning
sick. But he had not been at work at
all. He had been with the other wom-
an. He lost his job, and then he told
me l would go and talk to his boss l
might bet his job back. l got his job
back for him, but he only works from
three until eleven o'clock at night.
But he is not doing any better. He
never gets in until or 3 o'clock in
the morning, and most Of the time he
hasn't been to work at all. l try to
talk to him and show him where he IS
wrong, but he just gets mad and won't
listen. He says no woman is going to
run him, and we are needing his mon
ey so bad. He treats the children like
he loved them, but he is not willing to
get them clothes. Will you please tell
me what to do. A. r.
1t seems to me that court action is
the only solution for your problem.
Since your husband does not care for
you or support you and the children,
file petition for divorce and ask sup
port for yourself and children. He
will be compelled by the court to work
then, and to pay for your support
The court will also require that he
pay your attorneys fees, if you file
petition to that effect. According to
your story you have good grounds for
divorce.

Rettig Company Announces
Change in Its Policy

Otto Rettig of the Rettig Ice & Coal
company announced today that he had
changed the selling policy of the plant.
The company will operate hereafter on
a profit sharing plan. Instead OF the
consumers of both ice and coal buy
ing direct from the company, they
will buy direct from the men. In this
way all employees will be in business
for themselves, and they will in turn
give to the buying public better serv-
ice. The company will be back of its
employees and in case of a complaint
will be ready to make adjustment.
Rettig says that in every city this
plan was worked it has proved a big
success.

HEART AND BEAUTY
PROBLEMS

CSEl]
BY Mrs. Elizabeth Thompson

Dear Mrs. Thompson: am a girl
eighteen years OF age. I go with a
crowd OF girls ranging from fourteen
10 nineteen years Of age. Part of my
companions say wear my dresses too
short and part say too long / am
about five feet six inches tall and am
we'll built. How long do you think
l should wear my dresses?
There are three girls in our crowd
who are jealous of me, because II any
or these girls and l are together and
one of our boy friends comes up, he
generally walks home with me, for
there Is seldom any one in the crowd
who lives down our way. What can
| do to make these girls understand?
They are new girls and were very
popular in the city they came from.
| have asked some of the boys why
they do not go with these girls more
and they say that they don't like their
company. | want the girls to be well
come to our vicinity. Please advise
what should do.
BROWN EYES.
Wear your dresses about an inch
below the shoe tops. Dresses are
being worn long this season.
You worry too much about what
people think. Go with the boys when
they ask you, and take 1t for granted
that the other girls are generous
enough not to be jealous. 1t Is USE
less to try to force the boys to go
with the girls, because when they
want to they will do so without your
urging.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: How old
should girl be before she should go
with boys-of course / mean the right
kind of boys?
am corresponding with a boy some
older than myself and he used to go
with my sister. He has been writing
to me since he went to the army. He
wrote to me before / thought Of writ
ing to him.
My father and mother do not object
to my writing to him, as he is only a
friend. What do you think about it?

A girl should not have dates" with
boys until she is seventeen or eigh-
teen. / consider 1t all right for boys
and girls even younger that taht to
play tennis togther, and other games.
but they are too young to go to places
at night.
Your correspondence is all right.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: Please give
me a recipe for making rouge that Is
not injurious to the skin.
KITTY:
If your are in good health, and take
plenty of exercise, you should not
need rouge. If you do use it be sure
and get the hest kind and wash it off
carefully at night. There is no meth
cd of making it at home that l know.

Gentlemen:
I have received your box of Lax
carin few weeks ago, and while to

full medicine, because l want them to

ceived. God bless you for it. 1t is
really wonderful thing for constipa-

that l really believed that the only
relief l would get, would be in the
other world. Please send me imme-
diately two dozen boxes, one dozen

Your health depends very much up
on the ability of your system to get
rid of the poisonous toxins which ac-
cumulate in the intestines, in the
stomach and in the liver and kidneys.
With these poisons in your system,
you cannot possibly live. And while
you can live with it in your system
for number of years-it is nothing
else but a miserable wretched exist
ence, full of worries, cares and trou-
bles. If it is in your power to get
relief-why don't you do it? Try
Laxcarin if you are suffering with in
digestion, sour stomach, sick head
ache. belching of gases, heartburn,
sleeplessness, constipation, yellow
ness of the skin of the white of the
eyes, which are usually the signs of
a bad working liver. Also if you have
no desire to eat, and if you eat well
and the meals stay in your stomach
through over-acidity. Laxcarin will
gently cleanse your stomach, bowels,
stimulate your liver and kidneys into
action and thereby, not only cleanse
your entire inside, but will gradually
clean your blood as WELL Six boxes
usually enough for a full treatment,
costs but five dollars, or one box will
be sent for dollar, post paid upon
receipt of remittance by the Laxcarin
Products Co., Dept. E-94, Pittsburgh,
Pa.
Note-Lexcarin il not sold in drug
stores-therefore you will have to
write to the company direct to get it.
