Ask Him What Is Wrono

Dear Cynthia--About five months ago
I met a fellow whom went crazy over,
and he also liked me, as he often told
me so. We went steady together until
about two weeks ago. when suddenly
he just stopped coming to sea me or
dance with me when l saw him at a
dance.
Oh. I feel so blue, for. I love him.
His boy friend told me that my friend
told him I said something about him,
which I did not. How can I make him
come back TO me without making my
self feel cheap? MARY r.
Since you have been close friends for
several months. you certainly have
every right to ask him what is wrong
and why he Is treating you this way.
Do not speak in an aggrieved way. but
some misunderstanding that will be
cleared up by talk

She probably would, though.
The things that some women couldn':
stand at all seem like nothing unusual
to others.
That is, they come to mean that:
II every wife wrote book Of her
real feelings. the first chapters would
hold many revelations of the character
Of her husband and the difficulty of ad-
justing It 10 hers, and hers to it.
She docs most of the adjusting. in
cidentaliy. for both OF them.
But that would all be forgotten arc
overlooked as the book went on; thc
wife would have either cured her hus-
band = grOuChcS or DOSSlncSS OF mOOul- :
ness or whatever he afflicted her with,
or else she would have got so used to 1t
that she accepted It as matter OF
course.
TT DOESN'T take long for those things
L to show. and It takes correspond
ingly short time for the wife who is
wise and clever to choose her way out
Of the difficulty.
Sometimes she gives him dose OF
his own medicine: II he is the can't be-
pleasant till after breakfast type. she
INDUCES in q few sulks of her own. and
informs him that there are times when
she can't be pleasant either.
On the other hand. she may humor
him: II he happens to be the must

ready for them type. she tells him that
dinner is ready as soon Ms he opens the
door in the evening. and then puts the
final touches on it. while he is finishing

on the train. washing his hands. chang
ing his necktie and generally delaying
things.
Or very often she finds any method
she tries TO be useless. and SO she blinds
herself TO the faults of the man SIC

LOVE NOTS
BY KAY KEAN
Happy Though Married.

Know you before 1t is too late that
the marital bargain counter is not a
credit desk for the redeemng Of woes
Marriage is not an incubation; It's
an acute attack. 1t does not change
anything but your name.
IL you already have straight hair,
false teeth and poor eyesight at the
time of marriage, unfortunately you'll
continue to keep them in spite Of a
husband and that Happy Ever After"
stuff.
Know nlso that the same holds true
Of seltishness, fits of temper and a sen >
/ sitive eye for irritable men.
Count not on marriage to remake
your disposition. If you are lucky
enough to be happy. though married. it
WI be in spite of it.
You won't find yourself growing blue
bird wings Just because you have taken
unto yourself soul mate. Rather
you'll begin to develop migratory de.
sires rs soon rs you realize that the
conjugal certificate isn't passport into
Heaven.
