Dorothy Dix Says
Curing the Reading Habit in
Mate Is a Difficult Job.

NEAR MISS DIX: What can I do
with husband who has the read
ing complex? He never lifts his eyes
of book, magazine or newspaper or
says a word when he is at home
Sometimes / could scream because I
have to sit in silence while he reads,
or if I try to talk TO him he just
mumbles without hearing what 1 have
said. have only been married two
years. I am young. / would like to
go about little And I would GER
tainly like SOME conversation on the
side. What can I do to make him
look at me sometimes instead of a
book? A WIFE.
AnsWer-Curing the reading habit
is just about as difficult as curing the
dope habit. To those who have it.,
the printed word is an allure they
cannot resist. Their eyes are drawn
to it by An irresistible attraction.
Their hands reach out inStinctively
for the book. paper or magazine, then
they pass into kind of oblivion that
makes them deaf to all that goes on
about them.
This makes the bookworm a trying
mate for the radio addict, or the
movie fan, or the bridge hound, or
just one who likes the sound of his
or her own voice. There is no remedy
