Dear Mrs. Thompson: Will you
kindly advise what 1 can do for a
red nose? THANK YOU.
A red nose is a most unpleasant
affliction, usually caused by de-
fective digestion or an impover-
ished condition of the system, as
well as sluggish circulation.
There are external applications
to be applied locally wnen the nose
is red, but l believe more in the
efficacy of proper diet and exer-
else.
Tea and coffee, both because
they are hot and stimulating,
should not be drunk The face
must be washed in tepid water, for
that which is hot or cold has bad
effect.
Beef, mutton, plenty of fresh
green vegetables and small sup
ply of sugar such as is contained
in simple desserts should compose
the diet Exercise out of doors. is
to be regarded as part of the cure.
Walking rapidly is one of the best
ways of getting exercise, but if the
pace is slow no benefit is derived.
A lotion may be made from four
grams each OF precipitate of sui
phur, pure glycerine, precipitated
chalk, cherry laurel water and rec
titled alcohol. In using this To-
ton, its action upon the skin must
be carefully noted. Should it cause
the slightest tendency to peeling,
it may be necessary to omit it for
a few days, but a slight application
of cold cream, rubbing it off gent
ly at once, if desired, will usually
offset such an effect.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: 1 am a
father of a sweet baby whom 1
dearly love and l also love my
wife. Some time ago she wanted
to go to visit her sister a long way
off and after she arrived there her
sister said something about my
parents which caused my wife not
to write or to have anything to do
with me. I am willing to do what
father ought to do 1 get so lone
some to see her and my baby
don't know what to do. / never
gave my wife any cause to not
write. Please give me your ad-
vice HEARTBROKEN P. NJ.
l think the best thing for you to
do is to talk to lawyer and have
him try to arrange for a recon
Citation. Your wife will be more
apt to tell him the particulars
which keep her away from you, and
he will be more able to make her
see your point of view. Since she
has been turned against you, there
is little chance that she would lis
ten to your appeal. She is GER
tainly in the wrong if she is stay
ing away because of your parents.
She married you and her duty is
with you regardless of the thing
she holds against your parents.
If the lawyer cannot persuade
your wife to return I think you
can be given the legal right to have
the child at least part of the time.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: 1 am
married woman with a baby girl
two years old. My husband and 1
have separated time after time and
once came near to a divorce be-
cause of his lies. He just can't
tell me the truth. He loves idle
ness. I have lived with his folks
and mine, but l always have to
come home, for he neglects US and
lies to me.
l am true to him and never give
him a cause to be jealous. l am
"a and love to work. 1 have a po-
sition now and am away from him
with my own folks. He is with his.
He writes to come home and prom
Uses to do better. 1 have taken him
back so many times that 1 feel
cold towards him. My suffering
has been so much with him and
now that I make good money and
