Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am sc
years old and have been married 25
years. Before 1 married, my dear
mother warned me that 1 would not
be happy with the man of my choice
before marriage.
l have always been a person with
strong opinions and will and
would want to go ahead with my
way of doing things whether he
| wanted to or not He has always
been man of strong opinions and
| will, too, and so you can see why
we quarreled.
(; A friend of mine said that when
two people marry the one with the
strongest will weakens the will of
the other person so that that per-
son doesn't really count. 1t was
never that way in our family, be-
cause we each went our own way
and neither would give in to the
other
All of these years I have realized
that my husband wanted my love,
but l couldn't give it to him and at
times 1 have thought 1 hated him.
We have three children and so 1
never thought of separation.
A year ago my husband was
called out of town on business. He
had to open a district Office in an
other town and instead of taking
US with him, he only came home to
see US once a month for a week
end.
Absence has made me realize
that love him and 1 want him to
move US to the town where he has
to work. He says he doesn't want
to because he is enjoying peace of
mind and freedom which he has not
known IN years. l am sure there is
no other woman in the case because
have cousin in the other town
and l have asked her about him.
She says that he is busy at the
office almost every evening and he
often drops in to see her. She
knows there is no one else.
Don't you think by husband
ought to let us move to the place
where he has to work?
ALMOST DESERTED.
Yes, think your husband ought
to"permft his family to live In the
place where he has to work. He
will grow away from you II he
doesn't and later in life he will
realize that he has made a mistake
by not clinging more closely to his
children at least
The best way for you to make
your husband do as You want him
to is to do as he wants you to in
every way you can Since you have
only one weekend a month to be
with him you should make that
weekend absolutely happy for him
and for that time at least forget
your strong opinions and will and
look at things through his eyes.
Ask his opinion to make him think
that you respect his Judgment
more than you do your own.
By gentleness and sympathy Won
can do much to win back your hus-
band. He would care a lot more for
a loving, thoughtful wife than some
one too self-willed to care to be
thoughtful and loving.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: My little
girl is IL years old and 1 have had
her hair bobbed because it was so
thin and full of dandruff 1 thought
perhaps it would help to use some
thing on the scalp while the hair
is short. l expect to keep it bobbed
until she has no more hair. What
would you recommend for me to
use? MRS. F. B.
Vaseline is one of the best hair
growers, and will help to get rid of
dandruff. 1t depends on the dry
ness of the scalp how often the
vaseline should be applied. Once
or twice a week, however, should be
often enough.
Make a part straight from the
front to the back of the head and
rub the yaseline in thoroughly Be
careful not to let it get on the hair
itself. When you have finished that
part of the scalp, make another
part, and continue thus until you
have massaged the whole head.

The contribution of the kobuk sec ton to the fund recently raised in this division for Euror~sn relief was en- tirey the results of efforts made hv she pupils of the kiana school. accord ing to aletter from Mrs James Cor hett. teacher in charge. which accom- panied the remittance of s24 received by Mrs Alice Keenan. chairman of the divisional committee.
 Mrs. Corbett states that the money was raised through collections and an entertainment given by the school children on Washington's birthday Owing to the isolation. news of the relief campaign did not reach Kiana until the drive was over in other parts of the district but this foct did not deter the children from making an ef- fort to do their bit toward alleviating the woe and want of Europe's war waif's.
 There are only seven children in the kiana school but they apparently pos sessed ample enthusiasm for twice their number and soon had the dollars. rolling in generously in spite of the fact that, as Mrs. Corbett says, con ditions on the Kobuk are woefully strenuous"

TOTAL MOON ECLIPSE
NEXT THURSDAY
tBy John A. Wilson,

The only eclipse visible at Nome
 during 1921 will take place next Thurs
 day evening, April 2l. when the moon
 will be totally obscured. The eclipse occurs during the early twilight hours
 which is not a favorable time for ob-
 serving it. In fact. the eclipse will bs
 well under way when the moon rises
 at 7:5sNp. m. as three-fourths of the
 disk is obscured at that time The eclipse is total at S:23 and remains so
 for i2 minutes, or until 9:05. and ends at 1928 D. m.
 A lunar eclipse is caused by the immersion of the moon inthe earth's shadow. All opaque objects upon
 which light falls throw q shadow. and
 falls, is constantly throwing a shadow
 into space. But some background is
 necessary to make this shadow visible.
 and the moon is the only object in
 space near enough to get inside the earth's shadow cone and act as a bs'
 ground. so to speak. To make a
 lunar eclipse possible. the sun, earth
 and moon must be in straight line.
 with the earth in the center. This is
 nicely demonstrated in the coming eclipse. Three minutes after the sun
 has set, the moon rises exactly in the , opposite part of the sky. If the moons monthly journey round the earth were performed in the ecliptic (that is, the plane of the earth's journey round the sun) we would have a solar eclipse every new moon and a lunar eclipse every full moon. but since the moons path Is 1 inclined about 5 degrees to the eclip- tic. 1t happens only occasionally that the moon when new or full is also in the ecliptic.
 The old Chaldeans discovered that as eclipse repeats itself after IS years II and ls days. approximately. This period was called the Saros. and was used to roughly predict eclipses. The eclipse happening Thursday will again
 occur In 1ess. During one Saros there are about 71 eclipses.- solar and lunar. in progress.
