Dear Mrs. Thompson: have been married eight years. My hus- band works every day and give me his money, but he is forever talk ing about 1t. I do the best I can to keep the house and two children as neat as l can. l can't say that l really love him. as I was very young when we were married and my mother was so strict with me that I just married him to get what I considered freedom. He and his sister just talked me into 1t.
 But what makes it worse than all. my husband never takes a bath or cleans his teeth. He has only taken one bath in two years. He has catarrh very badly and spits blood, but he thinks I shoupld be very affectionate to him. I do the best I can. but it is very hard to accept his affection. A big nasty sore came on my face. At first it was a small skin chap and then nasty sore. I think it came from his lips. I just shudder when he kisses me. I am not happy. If he would only keep clean it would not be bad. It is really a job to get him to change his underwear. May be you could suggest something that might help me. I am so disgusted and unhappy will you pleases try to help me?
 YOUR UNHAPPY SISTER,
 As far as I can sese a physician can help you with your problems more than any one else. If the sore on your face has not already healed you ought to have medical attention at once. When you talk to the doc- tor do not be afread to tell him what you have told me. He will keep your trouble secret. I presume that your husband can be scared into taking baths and cleaning his teeth when some one who has authority tells him how dangerous it is for him to neg lect himself. The fact that he raises blood is also significant. He is in @ bad condition or he would not do that For the sake of your children something must be done. If you

CLIPPING THE HAIR

The condition of the hair, it's lustre and thickness. and the richness of it's color is largely a, matter Of physical health, yet no hair that is not proper ly cared for can be beautiful.
 The hair must be shampooed care fully about once in three weeks and not simply washed every now and then with any sort of soap The hair must be carefully and gently brush ed, and the brush should never be brought down hard upon the scalp. The ends of the hair must be clipped frequently so as to encourage the growth of new hairs and so as to avoid split ends
 Chemically speaking, the hair is made up of the same material as our finger and toe nails. Each hair is composed of a number of overlapping cells, it is not a, hollow tube as is pop ularly supposed. The growth of the hair is a continual pushing upwards of these cells which are constantly forming inside the skin. When one hair us pulled out or when it drops out another hair will be put forth, and then another and still another one, unless the papillae which nour- ishes the hair is dead or diseased. In that case no new hair will grow.
 If the scalp is neglected, if dirt or any kind of disease gets too great a hold upon it, the healthy hair will weaken and lose it's color they will break and split and finally fall out and the new hairs that grow in will be weaker and will lack the beauty

cannot do anything with your hus- band you surely ought to find a way to get along without him. It would be difficult, but you might be able to secure housework where you could keep your children with you.
 In regard to money, your husband ought to have some of what he earns and should not be obliged to turn everything over to you. Even if his earning capacity is small, he is en- titled to a small portion which he can call his own. You know that it is very unpleasant for woman to be without money. and 1t is just as un- pleasant for a man.. Probably your husbands earning capacity would in- crease if he were more careful about his person and health.
 Dear Mrs. Thompson: My waist is very short and I never feel that I make a good appearance because of this. What can I do to lengthen my waist? D. G. T.
 A great help toward improving the appearance of the figure in this re. spect is to plan the style of the dress to this end. Avoid every suggestion of horizontal trimming or pattern in the waist. The one pieces dresses so much in vogue at present are very wei adapted to the short waisted per son, since the belt can be worn loose ly and low enough to hide the natural waistline. A good corset. carefully selected for the special need, will help a great deal.
 Dear Mrs. Thompson: Will you please tell me if cousins can marry In Illinois and, if not, please tell me what states they can marry in?
 BLONDY.
 Marriage betwene first cousins IS forbidden in all the states except Alamaba, California. Colorado, Con necticut, Delaware, District of Co., lumbia. Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Ken lucky, Maine. Massa chusetts, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Rhode Island, South Carolina. Texas, Virginia and Washington.

Gets Million For Lost Art

A recent accident led to young man discovering an art which has been lost since the days of the an cient Egyptians.
 The result of the discovery is big concern has decided to pay $1 1,000,- 900 and a royalty of two cents a pound to Walter Bunton for his pro- cess of tempering copper.
 Bunton, who is only twenty-eight, was not trained metallurgist, though he has discovered something that has baff1ed metallurgists for centuries. He was a skilled mechanic employed by a New York company. An accident called his attention to the possibili- ties of tempered copper.
 Bunton chanced to find few pages torn from an old book lying in a rub bish pile ready for match. A pie ture caught his eye. He picked up the crumpled sheets and began to read an account of an ancient metal lurgist-incidentally murderer-with whose death the secret of hardening copper was lost. It interested Bun ton, and he set to work.

I have to breathe through my mouth when one of these spells is on, and it works on my nerves. get so nervous I can hardly sit still. am only 25 years old, was always healthy and never bothered in any way before. This just bothers me by spells. I get up feeling as fine as I ever did in my life one morning; I chew a little tobacco, also smoke a cigar once in a while when I go to town. Another morning I get up with a bad taste in my mouth. I weigh heavy and feel good any time I am not bothered this way.
 e All my life until lately, nave eat en lots of sweet foods, candies and such. I am farmer and do lots of work. Have been doctoring with the home physician a little all year, and he keeps telling me it's my stomach and I will get all right. He tested my heart and lungs and said he never tested better
 Answer-The nervous element counts about one-third in heart dis ease; about one-third has to do with the condition of the heart muscle; the last third is the relation in which the arteries, the kindeys, the liver and the rest of the body stand toward the heart. Cut out all the tobacco in any form. also the sweets. Show the diet list and the Hygienic Life article have sent you to your doctor. Get rid, while you can, of that hard eathing-dyspnoea.

LONA REBELS AT FINISHING
 SCHOOL

IIona's thoughts reverted, fnvo1un- shoulders, the tan spot at the back of his neck, his rough knickerbockers and broad breast exposed to the winds as it always had been. What did these poor people of hers know about real men, after all? They were really to be pitied. Truda would marry one of these spindly-waisted youths of the town and never even catch sight of a woodsy man, with skin like a bronzed God and the cdor of leaves and tobacco in his hair- It was too bad
 '.I1ona dear child," went on her mother gently placing her daughters grape fruit spoon before her as she saw that she was about to use a DOT ridge spoon, Jimmie is very devoted to your sister and in time no doubt he will ask her to be his wife, so you must try to like him a little. He's really a very nice boy even though he has been spoiled. Trude will be a fortunate girl to catch him, too. ,Thepe's not a girl in Wellington who would not give all she values most to be in her shoes now.'
 "Oh mother, those crfnkly, uncom- fly shoes? I wouldn't not for any thing. And I think I'd rather die than be Mir Warburton's bride, even though I think he's awfully jolly and strange"
 well, well, so much the batter for Truda," broke in her father at this point "She has no need to fear that her nose will be put out of joint"
 At these words I1ona stared at her parent in a mystified manner. She hadn't the remotest idea what he meant by mentioning her sister, her

process. The first treatment of pure copper makes it harder than copper has been before, but keeps it still pli- able; the second makes 1t almost as hard as steel; the third so hard that it cannot be cut by the best steel saws, files, or chisels.
 Bunton went to see the company officials. The conference did not last long.
 Name your terms," said the chair man.
 "A million dollars advance and two cents a pound royalty" he replied
 "We will let you know," was the reply.
 A letter came accepting the terms.
 Bunton's new metal is believed to be of enormous importance to all the mechanical arts. It is said to be the hardest metal known.
 It means cutting tools for lathes that will not strike sparks; it means that bearings for automobiles, marine engines, fCcomotives, and electric mo- tors and generators that will not burn out; it means machine parts that will not crack.

 Framed Chintz Make Good Pictures
 A new trick is this:
 In a chintz decorated room have plain walls decorated in gray, tan, light blue or green, which is again in vogue in interiors.
 Have no pictures of the conven- tional sort on the walls. But instead cut from the chintz, of the large pat termed sort, several panels of different sizes and shapes, each containing onv big motif. and have these framed.
 In this way one might contain a big bird. another might contain one group of flowers, 8 third a second group of flowers and a fourth per haps some fruit. These four panels would be hung on the four walls of the room.
 Of course two could be made alike. if you wanted more panels, or did not have four separate designs in the cretonne. These make really very effective wall decorations and are something new and interesting.

Women live longer than men. The women who wear corsets live longer than those who do not. Nature and corsets work together. Nature values the female life more highly than she does the male. So does man in his control of creatures lower than himself, if they arc useful. On the farm the male Of the kind is not so important as the female. Chantecleer goes young to market. The silk coated Jersey butter producer is tenderly groomed and nour- ished long after her gallant young brother is veal.
