Heaven knows, any man who has had 30 years of nagging has qualified in the martyr class and should be exempt from all suffering thereafter. K DOROTHY DIX.
 Dear Miss Dix-After eight months of welded bliss am confronted with a very serious problem. My husband and I love each other very much. We have charming apartment, which l take great pride in keeping as attractive as possible, and I do everything to make my husband comfortable, cook him three hot meals a day, etc.
 But my trouble is this: l am an only daughter, and my mother is not in good health, so I do many things for her. My husband resents this very much. He claims I work too hard at my mother's house, but never considers what l do for him. My mother is very good to us, and we could not get along without the help she gives us financially. Now, I love my husband and my mother both dearly, and this keeps me from being able to judge fairly between them. Will you please tell me what should do?

Answer-Your problem is very common one, my dear. Many men are jealous of their wives attec- tion for their mothers, and they particularly resent their wives pay ing any particular attention to their mothers They seem to think that when they marry their wives they should give their entire time and attention to serving them.
 This is unjust and unmanly, for surely no girl can ever repay her mother for all she has done for her, and the husband should feel that he is also under obligation to the woman who has given years of her life to rearing him good wife.
 Of course, many women really upset their apple carts by their own clumsy handling of a delicate situation. They unintentionall7 arouse their husbands Jealousy of their mothers. The young bride, loving and admiring her mother, and fresh from being under mothers dominance, is always flinging mother in her husbands teeth. She asks mothers advice about everything, and tells him that mother things they had better do so and so. She quotes mothers opinion on everything, as if mother were an oracle, and the young husband gets fed up on mother. He is full of a vanity of his own, and determined to be the head of his own house. He expects and desires his wife to admire him, and consider him Sol omon, and when he finds out that she hon La haninc tn 500 green-eyed and hates mother
 Therefore, little bride. put the soft pedal on mother. Don't talk about her so much. Don't drag husband to see her so often, and don't call his attention to every thing you do for mother. And by and by his jealousy will die out for want of food to feed on.
 Make him understand that he comes first with you. That Is all he wants to be sure of.
 Ask him if he does not think that the more loyal a girl is to her mother, the more loyal she will be to her husband, and if he wouldn't be afraid to trust wife who had so little sense of duty and ObliGa- tiOn that she could forsake the mother who bore her and who needed her help. That thought ought to hold him for while.

If you have to give In to a girl before marriage to get along with her, she will have you so good and hard under her thumb after par- riage that you will not be able even to squirm. You will be one of the meek, little. henpeeked men who trail along in their wives wake and who dare not call their souls their own. Don't let yourself in for that sort of contemptible fate.

Self-Operating .
Still Developed
By MOOr,shi1,ers
spccial Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, August 26.-Boot-
leggers have developed a still that
manufactures whisky without
any one watching it, according to
Joseph P. Flinchum, one of the
agents of the Maryland District
of the Federal Enforcement
Bureau.
1t is an indication of the efficiency
to which the industry has been
developed, according to Flinchum.
The moonShiner rents a vacant
house and visits it only at inter-
walls to remove the finished product
to renew the supply of raw ma
terial and to give the still
occasional attention.
The liquor is sold almost before
it is cool, F'linchum said, and the
local agents have made only one
raid in which they found liquor
being aged, although in some cases
the stills were operated with the
efficiency of the old-fashioned COM
mercial distillery.
This makes it difficult to catch
the moonshiners, Flinchum pointed
out, as the only way to get them is
to keep watch and trap them as
they come and go.
