to crack it little, without hurting

will tactfully agree with you that you
are abused
A doctor is always making you take
bitter medicine. and give up all the
things you love beSt-and assuring
you that you aren't as ill as you think
you are.
But lawyer UNDERSTANDS
you. Understanding misunderstood
women" is his business.
A lawyer knows more about a
woman's real SOUL" after twenty
minutes conversation, than her hHS'
band knows after twenty years o.
marriage.
A good lawyer knows how TO sugar
coat his advice, so that the most sen
sitive woman can swallow it down
like a chocolate sundae. He can Iel
her that she is an eighteen-carat fcoI
in such way that she will feel like
sainted martyr.
Even when your lawyer tells yor
that you can't GET the alimOny, Of
the Judgment, or whatever you happ2r
to want, he sympathetically assures
you that you OUGHT to have it, anC
that you have suffered"
Lawyers are said to be cynical an;
"hard-boiled" but there never wa
one who didn't soften n little when ;
pretty woman wept all over his ma
hOgany desk-top.
Many a woman. who has gone +
her lawyer for a divorce. has felt tina
she could 60 back and endure he
husband little longer. because Sh
has told the lawyer what a brute
he is. and has gotten it out of he
| system.
