WTRITE to Jane Jordan for help
w She will study your prob
lens and suggest a way out of your
difficulties.
Dear Jane .Jordan-7There are two sets
OF children in our house and it seems
everything thev eat and act like they
on tie T'' oSc sds the eas Children "a" are not
have clothes and things to play with;
Their i9ther holds them on his lap and
makes Over them. He thinks what they
not tr- his children right If he does, not
tre7t mo right Do YOU think II is
Tish fer 70 e kGeP my ehildgSn why're
Dear w. M. S.-No, it is not right
to keep children in home where
they are not welcome. They are en-
titled to protection, generously given
without expectation of return. What
is done for them should be done
solely out of love and interest, and
not tainted with the spirit of grudge.
If you are not financially equipped
to naintain two households, sug-
gest that you win indulgences for
your children by granting indul-
genceS to your husbands. After
all his little ones are no more TO
blame for this situation than yours
are. 1t would be unfair to revenge
your offspring by neglecting his.
If your husband is in love with
YOU, the chances are that he suffers
from a latent sexual jealousy OF
your former husband, and as the
children are a constant reminder OF
a union in which he had no part
he can not help resenting their
presence. This, however, does not
excuse him for making innocent lit
tie children suffer for acts for
which they are in no way reSpon-
sible.
Your first duty is to provide the
best possible environment for your
own children, for whose existence
you are responsible. Yon can not
better their condition by antagoniz-
ing your husband or failing in kind
consideration for his share Of the
family.
Dear Jane Jordan-I am 81 wears old
and have three children. l love my hus-
band dearly but have done wrong by
! WA was married This fellow saws he
doesn't love any girl, but likes me as we'll
as any. He got in trouble snd was sent
Rway tor ten years love him and want
@ write 70 him. but know II wrong
hurt him badly.
I am awfuilv afraid someone will tell
him about seeing me with the other fell
low. I don't know whether to tell him it
isn't true or tell him everything. What
LONESOME AND BLUE.
Dear Lonesome and Blue-My
advice is to say nothing and hope
and pray your foolishness will not
be discovered. Any woman who
will swerve in her loyalty to q
faithful and devoted husband fol-
the sake of lesser character who
frankly says he is not capable Of
loving any woman deserves to lose
her place in his heart.
If you are lucky enough to escape
discovery, for heavens sake resolve
to walk the straight and marrow
path and do not flirt with disaster
by writing to man who isn't worth
even the postage. Your children
too, should deter you from riskins
the happiness of their home wher
YOU have everything to lose anC
nothing to gain.
Dear Jane Jordsn-How would you like
TO help md a home for some dear little
tot? I would like to adopt a little baby
as soon as IL is born. and make even
the neighbors believe that it is my own
