house. My husband never helps
with the housework. I have found
out that have nerves which L never
had before. My husband also OBJ
jects to the very idea of our having
children, and 1 adore children. 1
am so tired, and I feel that I have
come almost to the end Of the rope.
What shall I do? WEARY.
Answer: Revolt, my poor woman.
Rebel. And do it at once. Other
wise you will either be dead or in
a sanitarium with a nervous break
down which will leave you an in
valid for life.
You have evidently had the mis-
fortune to marry a man who is
slave driver, and who doesn't care
whether he works you to death or
not so long as he gets the benefit
of your labor. Wives are cheap Ia
Dor. When he has killed you he can
marry another woman. So, if you
are not anxious to sacrifice your
self to your husband a few dollars.
you will have to call halt on your
present mode Of life, for no flesh
and blood could stand the strain
that you are putting upon it.
I believe in a woman helping her
husband. 1 believe that it is very
often the right thing and the wise
thing for women to keep on after
marriage with the gainful occupation
she has followed before marriage in
order to save up, and buy a home,
and get a start in the world.
But woman's duty to her hus-
band depends altogether on his at
titude toward her.
If he is appreciative and sympa-
thetic, and if he tries to save her
and help her, she owes him much.
But if he is selfish, and inconsid-
crate, and grasping, and tries to
wiring the last ounce of service out
of her. she owes him nothing-abso-
lutely nothing.
And one thing is certain. No
woman ought to keep house, who is
working outside of the home. She
is trying to do two jobs, and it will
kill any woman on earth. No wom-
an has the strength to pound type
writer all day. or stand behind a
counter, or toll in a factory, and then
come home and cook, and wash, and
iron, and sew.
SO, weary wife. use a little COM
mon sense. Have a little courage.
Give up your job or give up the
homework. If you husband doesn't

COTTON BLOC ASKS
CHANGE IN METHOD
OF CROP FORECAST

WASHINGTON, Dec. 12.-Reform
in cotton crop and ginning reporting
by the government was discussed
at a meeting of a committee of
senators and representatives from
the cotton states this morning at
which it was tentatively decided to
introduce a bill asking that esti-
mates be- based on the actual acre
age planted and not on intention
of planting.
Representative Rankin, Democrat
of Mississippi, chairman of the
committee, was instructed to confer
this week with Secretary Wallace,
of the department of agriculture, on
possible changes in the system of
crop reporting. Earlier and more
frequent reports of ginning were
favored.
Other members of the committee
included Senator Harris, of Georgia,
and Representatives Bulwinkle,
North Carolina; Swank, Oklahoma;
Oliver, Alabama, and Wingo, Arkan-
Sas, all Democrats.

SOUTH WINS FIGHT
AGAINST REDUCING
c. D. P. DELEGATION

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-THE
Republican national convention of
1924 will assemble in Cleveland on
June 10 and its delegate strength
will be apportioned virtually on the
oldtime basis of full representation
for the south as well as the north.
A carefully drafted plan to curtail
the voting power of those southern
states which belong to the Demo
cratic solid south was overturned
by the national committee just be-
fore selection of the time and place
for the convention had been made
final.
In 1921 the reapportionment pro-
gram had been given the approval
of the committee and the reversal
was voted today over the protests
of those who declared reconsidera-
ton would be interpreted by the
country as an effort to increase the
delegate strength Of states likely to
cast their votes for President Cool
idge.
he committee also declQed TO rec
ommend to the 1924 convention that
women be given an equal status
with men as committee members,
and that one man and one woman
from each state be chosen to serve
: on a basis of parity as national
/. committeeman.
Selection of Cleveland as the con-
Vention city had been virtually GER
tain since a preference for it was
expressed by the managers Of the
Coolidge campaign. Chicago, pre-
viously considered a likely choice,
had withdrawn when the desires of
the Coolidge men became known.
South Keeps Votes
The delegate apportionment plan
finally adopted today provides for
a total of LILO delegates in next
years convention, compared to 9S4
in 1920, the increases largely going
to northern states under a pro-
vision that each state carried by
Harding in the 1920 election shall
have three extra egates-at-la
, The 1924 convention roll for
southern states as carried in the
official call adopted today, compares
with the 1920 roll as follows:

Sees Danger i'm Move

The reapportionment basis of
1895 delegates for 1924, adopted I'M
der orders of the last convention,
was reconsidered upon motion of
Charles D. Hilles, New York commit
teeman, over the vigorous protest
of Senator Howell, of, Nebraska.
/ Senator Howell warned the COM
: rnittee its action would be lighting
the train that may lead to a powder
mill" The reform of the southern
representation had been attempted
for twenty years, he said, and the
proposal to upset the reapportion-
ment was backward.
This will cause you more trou-
! BILE" said \Senator Howell. You
know the belief that the administra-
ton controls the delegates from the
south. Whether true or not you are
doing an injustice to President Cool
idge in this matter. You are simply
retracing a step made for reform.
The country will believe that the
administration is to be the bene-
ficiary."
President Coolidge, whose candi-
dacy for election was announced
only a few days ago, invited the
committee men and associate women

There are many women who find
their household duties almost unbear-s

rangement. Thetrouble may be slight,
yet cause such annoying symptoms
as dragging pains, weakness and a
rundown feeling.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is a splendid medicine for
such conditions. It has in many cases
relieved those symptoms by removing
the cause of them. Mrs. Halls ex-
perience is but one of many.

Of the men in the world treat women
just as the women permit themselves
to be treated. Don't forget that.
DOROTHY DIX.
Dear Miss Dix: About nineteen
months ago [ married to escape the
stern ruling of my parents, but 1
find my husband and his family even
more tyrannical than my father and
mother were. They have created a
world for me in which only they, my
family and my husband exist. l am
young, gay and would like to live as
the average girl does, but jealousy
holds sway in our home and I am
not permitted to go anywhere, have
any pleasure, or even any girl
friends. Please tell me what to do.
N. T.
Answer: Many girls find that they
have jumped from the frying pan
into the fire when they marry to get
away from unpleasant homes, and
the marriage Jail is more difficult
Jail to escape from than is the paren-
tai prison.
There are plenty of foolish girls
who think that marriage means free
dom and that if they can only get
away from mammals nagging and
papa's lectures they can do just as
they please and that life will be a
perpetual joyride, running about
to place sof amusement and buying
everything they like.
But they find that husbands are
a lot harder to get along with than
parents are, that mammals chaperon-
ing was nothing to the eye that jeal-
Gus husbands keep upon them; that
papa's growls were innocuous com.
pared to the things that angry hus-
bands say, and that even the best
husbands expect their wives to stay
at home and get dinner instead of
trailing off to the movies and coming
back with something in paper bag
that they call dinner.
For the girl who has gotten her
self into this sort of a box there cr9

divorce route, which is messy and
unpleasant, and which will put her

Dear Miss Dix: I have very bad
eyesight, and for over fourteen years

am in love with a young man who
objects very much to them and will
not take me out when I have them
on. SO for two years 1 have not
worn them in the evening when we
went to places together. Now my
