THE MARRY
GO-ROUND
BY Helen Rowland


Woman-and the Other Woman
A WOMAN is often the cause
"A Of q mans downfall and
always the cause Of his spruc-
ing UP.
When q man begins to so
In FOR d high polish on his
nails and put tonic on his hair,
his wife lays down her bridge
hand with a sigh, and goes out
to look for ia femme"
No woman can do anything
much with her husband, as long
as some other woman feels
sorry for him"
A good fellow is one who
can always be counted on TO
trim the Christmas tree at the
Lodge or the Town Hall while
his wife does that little job for
the children, at home.
No woman appreciates her
husbands brilliant versatility
until she sees him using the
vibrator on his head, eating his
morning grapefruit and read
ing his newspaper, all at the
same time.
It is always q surprise to a
divorce, to discover how long
1t takes her to get over the
habit Of listening for q mans
key in the latch, evenings.
In love, q woman is always
wanting to 'tget at the root Of
things: but q man is satisfied
Just to gather the blossoms and
. let things take care Of them
selves.
Some men never settle down
to the jog-trot Of matriInony
until after 5O--and then, 1t Is
usually their sciatica, or their
acidoSis, rather than their COM
nonsense, that forces <them to
slacken the pace.
A woman will have to be
awfully careful about the neck.
ties and haberdaShery she gives
her husband this Christmas:
because, owing to the slump, he
may insist on WEARING them.
Most women will argue even
with the DICTIONARY, or the
JURY. It takes IL good men
and true to have the last word
with a woman.

SECRETS OF
HEALTH
L-RY b.. Louis 8. Bisch.


TUE tonsils are oval, flattened
bodies placed on each side Of
the back Of the throat. Their
structure is that Of lymph
nodes-thee so-called glands"
which sometimes grow enlarged
al the sides of the neck-and
these nodes are bound together
by q kind Of capsule.
The tonsiIs have 8 purpose, to
be sure, like all Emphatic tissue
In the body. They serve to pro-
tect the body against germs.
However, because OF the stu
alton Of the tonsils In the mouth
In which germs Of one kind or
another are always present
the tonsils themselves may be
overwhelmed with Infection and
themselves become diseased and
be q breeding place for more
germs.
After an attack of acute in
flammation of the tonsils there
may be complete recovery or the
tonsil- or the other or both
may become chronically en-
larged. II the first acute at
tack of tonsillitis is followed by
enlargement of the tonsil it is
almost certain that the indi-
vidual will suffer repeated acute
attacks.
When the tonsiI tissue be-
comes so diseased as to break
down, decompoSe and form pus
pockets, it is known as quinsey
sore throat or simply as qllinsey.
Young men seem most suS-
ceptible to tonsilitis. 1t Is espe-
cially prevalent during the
spring months. Many condi-
tons may bring on an attack.
Exposure to cold or damp is a
factor. Irritating gas and va
porS may be the cause. Often
overheated rooms will precipi-
tate an attack. Various dis
eases such as measles, erySipilas,
scarlet fever and the ordinary
cold may produce inflammation
Of the tonsils.
That tonsils may be foci
tplaces) for infection there can
be no doubt whatever. Disease
germs can actually grow in the
tonSil tissue. Rheumatic fever,
heart disease, chorea and other
diseases surely bear a close re-
lationship to bad tonsils. Elk.
perimentS have shown that

dren, and the heart impairment
that so often follows in their
wake. dropped from IS per cent

tainly all diseased tonsilS should
be removed and removed COM
pletely. But just as surely, the
tonSilS which do not become In.
famed, are not diseased and

lowed to remain.
The belief that tonsillectomy

may cause damage to hearing

Indeed, the voice usually Inn

WHAT Is companionate mar : THE Revc
" riage-really? does NOT n
By Elsie Robinson
A Misunderstood Term

THE Revolt Of Youth" It
does NOT mean free love or
trial marriage. It Is regular
marriage, employing the same
license and ceremony now In
use. The term ''companionate"
merely refers 10 that period Of
the marriage during which the
couple remain childless. Judge
Lindsey did not invent the
term. It has long been used
to define such q childless pc
Rod.
The couple do not HAVE to
remain childless. The wife is
NOT denied the urge Of
motherhood" She can have as
many babies as she wants. as
soon as she wants, and the
State will thereafter hold the
father responsible for their
support, just as 1t does now.
After children arrive. the union
becomes the conventional Fam
lily Marriage : but no new
ceremony is necessary any more
than 1t is now.
"But then It's Just like our
regular marriage?" says Della.
It is-which fact will surprise
multitudes who have expected
the worst ever since they first
heard the term.
Judge Lindsey's only radical
suggestions were in connection
with BIRTH CONTROL and
DIVORCE. He believes that
people should have babies only
when and If they want them,
and that the number should be
limited by the parents desire
and income. He claims that
birth control is generally,
though Illegally. practiced and
that, through ignorance, great
harm is often done. He pleads
that the right to control birth
be recognized and that clinics
be organized where instruction
may be given, to prospective
husbands and wives, IN all mat
tiers concerning marriage.
Judge Lindsay points out the
well.known fact that, in order
to get divorce under our exist
ing laws, most people must
resort to dishonest conniving
and that the process is further
complicated by excessive law
yers' fees. These evils he would
remedy by having the State
grant divorces readily, and with
out the mediation Of lawyers,
to unhappy, childless couples.
Divorce between payents would
be a much more complicated
affair.
The position Of a girl after
the dissolution Of q companions
ate marriage would be exactly
the same as the present posi-
tion Of any woman after any
divorce. Mrs. Norris fears to
the contrary, lot Of young
women seem to be bearing up
under It! And that's the whole
story Of Compartments Mar

Della Moffatt wants to know.
Yes. she realizes that Judge
Lindsey started that term two
or three years ago. But she's
never exactly understood it,
and she's heard so many ter
rible things about it-so, just
what Is it?
Almost every day someone
asks that question. For three
years "companionate marriage"
has been one Of our most pop.
ular and misunderstood terms.
It is undoubtedly one Of the
big issues Of the day and, be-
cause few Of US understand
what Judge Lindsey really pro
posed, 1t has done a terrific
amount OF mischief. "Compan-
tomato marriage" Is offered as
an excuse for almost any crazy
scheme as Della's
letter shows.
Dear Miss Robinson:

one way or the other.
The forms of marriage, and
the laws relating to marriage
are changing, as they have
ever so often in human history.
Judge LindSey'S plan Is Just,
one mans suggestion. based on
his very extensive experience.
If you want to know your world
you should study all current
suggestions and experiments
- you'll find yourself hope
