V i nRC ELIZABETH THOMPSON

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a
young married man. was a poor
boy with no home and mostly for
that reason got married last July
in order that I might have one. The
girl l married seemed very loving
and kind and I had known her
about two and half years. Her
parents. did not object to the mar
rage.
For a while life was beautiful,
but when my wife made me lose
my job by coming where I worked
and cursed aloud to me because
some one told her l was with an
other girl, and l was not, then life
darkened.
OF course, jobs were scarce, and
my wife went to work and paid the
rent onces Then when / would go
and look for work she would bring
fellows up in\our little rooms (be-
cause she paid the rent. At night
she would go away, not telling me
where she was going. Then we
partey because l would not allow
her to bring fellows in our rooms,
and she went back home and l
stayed at a friends house.
Please tell me what to do that
will make life worth living and yet
will not be expensive, as l said be-
fore, l am poor.
ONLY EIGHTEEN.
It is only natural that you did
not gain happiness when you mar
ripd for en- SalESb u rooCon since
she was kind and loving for the
two years you courted her and
since the first part of your married
life was beautiful, probably you
gave her cause to be desperate and
she tried to punish you by going
with other young men.
If you had stayed at home with
your wife evenings and taken her
with you when you went places, she
would not have believed the story
that you were faithless. You will
have to blame yourself and not
your. wife for your present unhappy
state.
My advice is to go to her and to
ask her to give you another chance
to play the man.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a
girl Is years of age and have a
boy friend whom l love very much.
He used to come to see me twice
every week. He has gone to the
city to work and does not come to
see me any more, but he writes.
He seems to work very hard and

conference today with Adolfo de la

terest has been paid since 1914.

purely banking one, 1t also is re-

bearing on the question of export oil

Acknowledgements of its external
