Dorothy Dix Says
Complaining Husbands Need to Be
Left Alone for a While.

Dear Miss Dix: I have been married
10 years and have a small family. Up
until the last year l have managed to
keep my husband and family together,
and I have been a good mother. wife
and housekeeper. But my husband
announces now that he is tired OF
domesticity; that he finds wife and
children boresome and cannot tolerate
us any longer. He is very anxious
for me to take the children and go
away for a while. as he says he needs
a rest from the family. I was a very
successful business girl before I was
married and am offered q marvellous
opportunity to 60 back into the busi-
ness world, but I hesitate because I
am afraid I would have to neglect my
children. Do you advise me to go
away for a while? JEAN.
Answer certainly do. Evidently
your husband is fed up on domesticity
and for the time being. at least, you
and the children are just poison to
him. OF course. he is altogether in
the wrong. but you can't argue with
mental state like that You just have
to meet it with common sense.
So the thing for you to do is to pack
up and get of just as soon as you
possibly can, and leave him to the
freedom he so ardently Graves. The
chances are that when he gets the
thing he desires 50 much he will find
that he doesn't want 1t after all. Just
now he growLs over the good food
you cook for him. When you have
beef he wonders why you didn't have
mutton. and when you have mutton
he demands to know If they have
quit killing beeves In the slaughter
houses. Let him try cooking his own
breakfasts and eating around in cafe
terias and restaurants for q change.
Just now you and the children bore
him to tears and get on his nerves.
Let him find out how lonely a house
can be without woman or child
in it, nobody with whom to exchange
word.
Evening star., 1938-10-20

Just now he thinks it would be the
most delightful thing in the world to
be able 10 come and 90 as he pleases.
and stay out with the boys all night
without any one lying awake listening
for his KEY in the lock. Let him try
sitting up in few all-night sessions at
poker.

Women in the "a to As size range
are very careful how they use two
colors. The effect so often adds bulk
and width that look we'll only on The
very slim. But here's clever design
that will be enthusiastically welcomed
by those of you who take women's
sizes, for it gives you the chance to
use a splash OF contrast in way that
adds height and subtracts width.

DEAR MISS NOVEL;: have two
very flne old quilts that have turned
very yellow from being packed away
for some years. I would like to have
them freshened up and feel that soap
suds and q good sun bath would
improve and bleach them consider
ably. One Of my friends suggested
I have them dry cleaned. Will you
give me your advice on this?
MRS C.B. N.
Answer-Dry cleaning will not re-
move the yellowness caused by old
age. If your quilts are not too fragile,
are OF fast color and cotton fabrics
think you can safely wash them.
In the days Of quilted bed coverings
they were all intended to be washed
and most Of them are vastly improved
by it. Use very mild. gentle soap
and wiring them very carefully. sug-
gest you handle them yourself or
take them to a fine French hand
laundry where they will guarantee in
dividual care. I have two OF my
own which are over hundred years
old and they are still in use and still
being washed II yours have been
washed once to prove they are fast
color you may certainly wash them
again.
DEAR MISS NOVEL;:
I have three old rosewood Victorian
chairs with barrel-shaped backs. They
are in use constantly and the backs
have begun to wobble. Is there any
way that these may be braced without
running their appearance?
CARL L. L.
Answer
Any good upholsterer will brace
them for you with angleirons made
to fit Sometimes these may be pur-
chased and sometimes they must
be turned out on forge if the angle
or curve is OF unusual shape. In
either case the results are usually
most satisfactory and If done before
the chair has pulled out too badly
will prolong its life by many years.

done about this? MRS. H. L. D.

with a commercial product which
actually does turn to dust. Your
only move now is to send the furni-

The Old Gardener Soys:

The best way to water house
plants is to give them a thorough
soaking and then permit them to
dry out partially before they are
watered again. With little ex-
perience the flower lover can tell
by tapping the pot whether or
not the soil has become dry. When
most of the moisture has disap-
peared hollow sound will be
given out; if the earth is full of
water the sound will be dull. One
good way to water plants in small
pots is to set the pots in a basin
OF water, leaving them until the
top soil begins to change color,
indicating that the moisture has
reached it. 1t is always best to
use lukewarm water.

Proper Way
To Select
Perfume
The Distribution of
.Favorite Scent
Is Important.
By PATRICIA LINDSAY.

The perfumes you wear outdoors
should be different than those you
choose for more gala or intimate oc-
casions Most of the leading per-
fume manufacturers have concen-
trated on special fragrances for your
life out in the open, free, from arti-
fetal backgrounds.
These have smoky bases. ferny odors,
brisk floral or garden scents-mixed
concoctions redolent of woodlands or
the first giddy days of spring Thus.
in choosing one OF these, you avoid
the siren school of fragrance and
create tantalizing aura IN keeping
with your daytime clothes.
Perfumes are really more delight
full in the fresh air. Even on city
streets. where sooty. smoky smells
are too prevalent, perfumes have their
place. A Whit of fresh fragrance on
pretty girl is as refreshing as the
first pussy willows! Providing the
fragrance Is appropriate for time and
occasion. For as you know. nothing
stimulates the memory more than
smells-and passing perfumes remind
city dwellers Of romantic country lanes
and . life less hectic!
Among the great French designers
is Nine. Jeanne Lanvin. who also
mixes brews Of her own! And she
instructs American women how to
subtly but surely create a perfume
personality"
Whatever you do" she cautions,
"do not concentrate your perfume on
one small part Of your being" 1t is
the proper distribution of your chosen
scent which makes a woman seem to
be enveloped in cloud Of fragrance.
Try touching the hem of your street
skirt with perfume and tucking a
saturated bit of cotton in the breast
pocket of your coat or suit. Or put
it in your handbag. Perfume inside
your glove is most effective. or dis
tributed around the band inside your
bonnet. Put dab on your jaunty
feather. Such diffusing of scent is
bound to make you more subtly ap-
pealing as you live your day.
You cannot afford to be too lavish
with good perfume. but you can
make it serve you as it should Just
be cautious in the amount you use
not in the way you use it!
And quite true. If you are fortunate
enough to possess pleasing perfume
which compliments your own person.
ality why not play it up to advantage?
After all, we gals love perfumes. and
We splash them about because We
know that men do, too! So along with
you, and be a veritable breath OF
loveliness in some ones problematical
existence! He'll adore you!
As perfume Is the final touch,
