LOREN < WOMANS SpHEPE < THE HOME
Dorothy DiT'S Letter Boz

Dear Dorothy Dix: I have been married nearly three years to young man I fairly worship. I have tried to be a good wife to him, and Kept on with my job after I was married and did my own housework untll last January, just before my baby came.
 Now, very much to my sorrow, my husband tells me that he is sick of being tied down to a wife and home. He says he is tired of having anyone looking for him and worrying if he doesn't come home about such a time, and that he Is anxious to go about like an unmarried man. He wants to take out girls and do whatever he wants to do and not have anyone to report tG. He says he cannot settle down to one woman or be tied to a home.
 He wants me to take the baby and go back to my father to live, but says that l may stay here if I will not Interfere with him or ask him any questions about what he does
 My heart Is torn in two, but what can dor I love him too much to leave him. A BROKEN HEART.
 Answer: If you are one of the doormat type of women who will let man trample over you and kick you about, there is no use in asking ads vice You will continue to be a door mat, and get dingier, and more worn, and be more knocked about until finally you will find yoursels kicked out of the house altogether.
 There are times in life, broken hearted wife. when we save ourselves much future suffering by having the courage to face the truth. That hour has arrived for you. Sit down and have 1t out with your own soul. Ad- mt to yourself that your husband is tired of you, and that his fancy for you is over, and that, so far as you are concerned, the episode Is fin ished.
 For the man who Is tired of a woman is tired of her forever. She has nc miracle by which she can re- vive his interest, or bring back his love, and she deceives herself if she believes that any patience or devo- tion, or goodness on her part will ever change his feelings toward her In any respect.
 Then admit to yourself what you know is the truth-that your Nhus- band is a rotter, utterly unworthy of your love. There Is nothing to tie to- nothing to depend on, in a man who has no sense of duty or responsibil- taken in his hands and the child he has brought into the world. He is as weak and unstable as water.
 There is nothing but misery for the woman who hangs Cn to the man who doesn't want her. Better let him go, and build your life along your own lines Make your husband buy the freedom he wants so badly by providing for the support of his child. Then go back to your old job, and in your work, and In your baby forget him.
 And do 1t now, while you are young and there are no more chii- dren for you to have to take care of. The parting may hurt you, but it
