+ fell In love. We have decided To
get married next year when he
will be financially able to marry.
But here is my problem.
I haven't told my mother be-
cause ! am afraid 10. She says
am TOO young and that ! don't
know my own mind. She says I
am unfair TO want To leave her
and makes cutting remarks about
my friend whenever she can. She
admits she likes him well enough
but insists that am unfair to
want to leave her. Ny father
died a number of years ago.
Because she has taken this atti-
tude II makes II difficult TO tell
her about our plans Am / being
selfish? ] want my own home
and don't think that at the age
Of 20 ! will be too young to
marry. NJ.
To be frank. don't think you
are selfish at all. II is the
most normal thing in the world
for a girl to want to marry and
have her own home. To say
You are too young Is a bit far
fetched. However. 1t would be
wise to weigh this matter, for
your mother might have some
well-founded objection TO the
man. II, on the other hand, you
know him to be honorable and
industrious, you should not let
anyone, not even your own
mother, step in and spoil your
plans.

by return mail that he was sensi-

wanted him to take a course they
offered but we cannot afford to

! am no medical adviser. Your
husband should see a good nerve
specialist. However, until he does
that il might be good idea
for him to remember that people
have been harried, nervous and
worried from the beginning of
time. Men have borrowed trouble
since they were big enough TO
borrow--snd the most satisfac-
tory answer can give to all
their bowling 10 this-nine tenths
of the woes they anticipate never
come 10 pass.
People fear certain diseases.

the common fears of mankind is

and / also know il is difficult to
not worry. but eventually most
of use lose our fears by letting

care of all that. although the
average nerve sufferer doesn't
have any fun while waiting for
the sun to shine.
