Dear Edith: Have been reading
your advice so long and perhaps you
can solve this hard problem for me.
/ have been married not quite two
years, got along fairly well until l
land at the time. My husband went
to Los Angeles and while there he
met a girl. finally had him come
to me after lots of begging, but now
he is in prison and yet still claims
to love me after all the insults have
stood from him. / love him dearly,
Edith, also went to see him, had a
good talk regarding our future and
still can't be sure of him doing right
by me. He never has seemed very
keen about working.
have met another boy who dearly
loves me and is good worker and
gives me everything, in fact, he is a
regular home man. l don't love him
but think lots of him but we contin-
ually fight. Would you advise me tc
marry man like that? Please, dear
Edith, give me your advice before
two weeks because boy friend ha.
given me that long to make up my
mind. My very life depends upor
your answer.
WIN sign as hubby calls me,
DOLL BABY.
How can you possibly promise I,
marry another man when you have
husband already? Don't you thin
that looks frivolous and superficial
as if you didn't take marriage Sc
riously? When person doesn't real

looks as if that. person was light
! minded or immature. You don
want to be either one of those things
I'm sure. The thing for you to al
| tend to now is to try to make you
marriage a success. Keep your min
on that. Blot every other man on
of the picture. The only man yo
have to consider now is your hul

Household Hints

If the wooden handle of the floor
mop becomes loose and cannot be
screwed into the mop, instead of at
tempting TO make it tight by winding
cloth AROUND il, try soaking this end
of the mop stick in bucket of warm
water for about an hour. The handle
will then screw tightly and will re-
main tight for some time.
II you put a bedspread through
thin starch water after il has been
washed clean, it will stay clean as
long again.. Fold it and press it on
the wrong side. It will look like new.
To cooked cereal, rolled oats or
cream of wheat, one may add shred
ded wheat biscuit. 1t not only adds
10 the flavor but increases the
amount, if one happens TO be short.
/ had extra company one morning
and wondered what to do. tried
adding the shredded wheat and every
one liked the change. One or two
biscuits will be enough.
When pressing silk, place a sheet
of tissue paper over it. The goods
can be seen through it, and it also
keeps the shine from the silk.
A sheet of oilcloth over the din
ing room table, under the silence
cloth, will prove a great protection
against both hot dishes and spilled
liquids.

posed Brownsville navigation district.

cussion after Commissioner A. ".

Der 90, at which time the hearing on
the San Benito navigation district
is scheduled. This motion was sec
onded by Commissioner Baughn of

Robber of Theater Is
At Large After Pal
And Officer Wound
ed in Gun Battle

HUMBLE, Tex, Nov. 15.-(Pl-
Half a hundred men were beating
the brush and guarding the highways
near here today in search of n
theater bandit who escaped after MS
alleged companion and Hrvey Fields,
Harris county deputy sheriff, had
been shot in a spectacular gun battle
here last night.
Both wounded men were in n
Houston hospital where Fields was
given a fighting chance to recover
and the other man, who gave his
name as l.. W. Rawlins, 2T, formerly
of Waco. was not expected to live.
The battle occurred when two ban
dts resisted arrest after they had
held up the Star theater and had
been handed over a tin box which
they thought contained cash but
which in reality held only cancelled
show tickets.
when Fields seized one or the
men. the bandit cried out to his
companion who fired twice, Fields re-
leasing his clutch and sinking to the
SIDEWALK. Deputy Sheriff Frank Neville
levelled his gun at the man who he
thought had shot Fields, fired once
and the man fell TO the ground. The
man with whom Fields had grappled
escaped in the darkness.
