Dear Miss Dix: I am married to man who thinks it is wicked to dance, play cards, go to the theatre or movies, and who is content never to 70 anywhere but to his mothers and to church, and who doesn't care to have any company.
 Don't you think this is rather hard on a young wife who has always been accustomed to gayety and to going to places of amusement?
 I love my husband and he loves me. but have had to do all the adapting and give up all my friends and pleasures because he objects to them. It. makes mo feel 1000 years old instead of 23. and am beginning g to wonder If the game is worth the candle. OBJECTED.
 Answer: You must bs having . sad and boring time with your pris of . husband, whos evidently thinks that being married to him is amuse- ment enough for any woman. But re- member that you brought your fate upon yourself.
 ship. you must have found out what this man, with whom you were pro- posing to spend your life, thought about different subjects. Surely you must have had wit enough to find out whether he was pleasure-lovinS or austere. genial or grouchy; whether he was friendly and sociable or morose and solitary in his dispo- sition.
 If you married him, knowing that he thought 1t wrong to dance. and play cards, and go to the theatre. you have no right to complain because he denies you these pleasures, and you should be good sport enough to take your punishment without whining.
 The trouble with both mon and women Is that they are attracted to their apostles and marry them. Then they expect the opposites to face-about and be different, which never happens. Hence the large num- Der of people who are in the same boat with you, poor little dejected, who has got a husband who won't play with her.
 The only really happy marriages are between people who have the same tastes and habits, and who en- joy doing the same things together.

 Gee! But you look stunning, Kkarian!' Dixon exclaimed.

 "wait and see!" George leased. By She way. the parson was asking on Sunday about your dancing X Lois laid down her book anu moved softly to the open door that she might hear better. If the pair were hafking secrets. they should defer their conversation until they were outside the house.
 Asking about my dancing?" Marian repeated. What do you n-ean?"

THE OFFICE CAT

Of course, a girl has a right to propose to a man in 1924. There isn't yet any constitutional amend ment against either hunting for trou- ble or being a glutton for punish ment.
 On the other hand, the girl without visible means of support. who pro-
 poses, thereby enters the ancient and dishonorable profession of pan handling.
 When it's as easy to fire wife as to fire a stenographer. and when the former is as universally willing as the latter to do a real days work then, and only then, may a young
 woman ask for either job without hurting her self-respect. The psychological objection to woman's proposal is that 1t offers the tonic of frankuess as substitute for the opiates of irresistible cnarm and mon. at least. still prefer their traditional dope.
 If, in these days of cheek-tocheek dances, automobile betting parties and chaperons conspicuous by their absence, any girl still finds 1t neces- sary to pop the question herself there's something the matter with her!
 One reason why proposing should be left to men is that they are thus compeIled to say once-even if never again--"I love you!" ("You know I do," or "Of course," is the nearest most of them come to it for the rest of their lives.)
 Before Elaine proposes. because she thinks Tom adores her and Is scared to tell her so, shed better be sure Toms agony of apprehension is not that he'll never be able to shake her.

 She did not know her father had gone out. Lois appreciated this and was glad.

BEAUTY AND HEALTH

Gertrude F.: Often in a condition or falling hair the general health is at fault. I advise you to look well into this. take plenty of nourishinr food: plenty of milk every day. live in the open as much as possible practice deep breathing all of the time and so improve the condition of your blood, upon the Aourishment of which your scalp depends Locally suggest. since your hair is short that you shampoo 1t twice each week with tincture of green soap, brush if vigorously every night on retiring and rub crude petrolatum into the scalp with deep friction, consuming at least 10 minutes. If you do this faithfully every night for a consider able period I am sure you will be delighted with the result.
 I. H.-No. my dear boy, I do not advise you to use the preparations you mention. Nor can I suggest any home remedy which will prevent the growth of hair upon your face but men are now employing for this pur- pose French ointment that is being used for superfluous hair. It de. colors the hair and slowly saps 1t of all life.
