JeaIOnSyLS
Thistle in
Side OfLjfe
BY MARTHA f

Jealousy is one Of the most pc
culiar traits a man or woman can
have, and one Of the hardest ones
friends have TO put up with.
There is no explaining jealousy,
or understanding it, but when it IS
there, it has TO be faced. Horrible
crimes are traced to jealousy; terri
bic actions and harsh, unkind words
are the result Of it; and a great
deal of misery also is caused by it.
There is no n so miserable as
a person who is a victim of this
disease" as n might call it. It
is torment, to suspect a loved one
Of being untrue, still the thought
creeps in that perhaps she might
be, and it virtually is impossible to
Danish it. To think that "the only
girl" or "the only man" might
transfer his or her affections brings
such pain, that it assumes aspects
Of reality, and as a consequence,
throws the jealous one into what
possibly can be termed temporary
insanity.
Will Power Necessary
Only great effort, and sheer will
power can overcome this thing, and
during the fight to down it, the
victim is to be pitied. To feel the
way he or she must feel, to swal-
low it and not permit it to make any
difference, seems to be one Of the
hardest battles in the world.
If one could learn to disregard
outbursts on their part, it would
simplify matters a little. If one
could get away with %ridiculing the
jealous one, it might help: but in
most cases laughter only adds fuel
to the fire.
It's a vice that has to be smoth-
cred and killed in order to get any
happiness out of life. With it as a
companion, ones path will certainly
be strewn with thistles.
Dear Martha Lee-Who said boys weren't
hard to understand? I was very much in
love with a certain boy, and for that
matter I still am. We were real pals.
We understood each other as If We were
married.; for that matter. we talked often
OF marriage. ne was very dlAeCtlOldlt
and I thought him to be serious.
We we're together constantly, until one
night he neither called or phoned. I have
not heard from hts since.
The last time We were together he was
the same as usual When we parted, he
was not angry about anything that 1 know
OF.
I am sad and lonely since he has gone.
DO you think he was tired OF me2
could be the matter2 Please tell me, for
BLUE"
It is possible he may have heard
Of something you had said or done,
and believing you to have done
something that hurt him, decided
to forget you. He may have thought
that you were "tri1ing," and without
giving you a chance to explain,
crossed you off his list.
The boy may have decided that
he did not love you as he thought
he did, and not knowing a better
or more graceful exit, just dropped
out of your life. He may have
thought he was wasting his time
as well as yours, If he had no Seri-
GUS intention, and without further
ado, stopped calling you.
There are so many different
things that might have come up, it
is hard to tell just what happened.
Why don't you write him a little
note and suggest that due to your
long and close friendship, he owes
you an explanation?
