The actors face showed instant relief
He broke into smile. Then he reached
forward and shook hands with his ques-
toner.
That's a good Joke" he said You
really had me @kightened for a while. /
didn't know what you wanted me for.
But If that's it, why-it is too ridiculous
to do anything except laugh
The officers were not satisfied with this

Imagination is a pretty good thing
to have, if it is not misused. But
when it begins to run wild, sometimes
it becomes dangerous.
You probably know mothers who
imagine their children have been kid
mapped or run over. every time they
are fifteen minutes late for dinner.
Then there is the sensitive young
girl who becomes self-conscious be-
cause she imagines, every time any
one looks at her, that her hair is com
ing down or her nose is unpowdered.
Most unhappy of all is the wife who
imagines that her husband no longer
lover her because he forgets to kiss
her one morning. or doesn't remem-
Der their wedding anniversary.
Answer to UNHAPPY WIFE: AS
you already have suffered unpleasant
consequences by letting your magma
ton run riot, I should think you
would have made determined efforts
to control it by this time.
Your husband has been more toler
ant. Some men would have decided
that, as long as you were going to be
suspicious anyway, they might as well
give you ground for suspicion. But
your husband has proved every time
that you were wrong in your accusa-
tions, and you have repented and
have promised never again to suspect
him just because of things you had
imagined
No wonder ne is getting impatient.
He can not keep on explaining for
ever. and still be happy.
Will-power and self-control are what
you need. Reason with yourself
whenever these moods of imagination
and suspicion come over you. Then,
even if you can not down the sus-
picion. do not tell your husband Of It..
Gradually, as you realize how foolish
you are. you will be less and less sus-
picious and imaginative.
Answer TO n. c. D: You can get
polishes that will clean your silver
slippers. After you wear them this
time. wrap them in black tissue or
crepe paper before putting them
away This will help to keep the air

Answer to NATHALIE: Both you
and the man have the wrong idea.
AS you are not engaged, you have no
right to expect him to limit his
dates" to you. OF course, the same
rule applies to the man. If you do
not care about having other engage
ments, that is up to you. But you
cannot expect him to stop going with
other girls. That would be presum-
ing too much.
Answer to BRIDE: If you are to
have a home wedding, it IS quite cor
rect for you to be married In your
travelling costume. If 1t is a dress and
a coat, you may wear the dress,
either with or without a hat. 1t is
better to wear the hat II there is
large number of guests. II you are
to travel in suit, wear the suit with
the coat and hat. A corsage looks bet
ter than an arm bouquet with a suit.
