Manners
of the
Moment

This problem about which of the
women pays when two women go
out together is getting me down.
With the men, you don't have to
worry. You just let them pay unless
they ask you for money.
But with women, somehow. there
always seems 10 be fight. No. no.
this is on me-" each will say stimuli
taneouSly, and then they start shov-
ing each other around trying to get
to the ticket window first. In fact.
there are times when I feel that
have been through a football skir-
mlsh by the time I get through with
certain women friends.
The solution which I have found
to be best is just to say very quietly,
No, We'll each pay our own. Then
I won't mind calling you again when
want company at the movies" ="
Most women will accept that as an
answer. and then you each handle
your own ticket, and every one is
saved a tussle.
If, however, your companion in
sists. then I think it wiser to &C
cept her offer with a certain amount
of graciousness. You can plan some
sort of return engagement, which
you will make very clear is to be
your party. JEAN.

Dorothy Dix Says 80
Before Starting Divorce Action,
Women Should Consider Well

A woman writes: II have two
lovely children. a beautiful home,
cars, fine clothes. everything that a
woman could want except faith
full husband He is good and kind
to me after his fashion. He says
he loves me. He boasts ABOUT what
a good houSekeeper and manager I
am and what a wonderful wife and
mother. but during all the years of
our marriage he has had one affair
after another with women. When
/ protest against this, he laughs and
tells me I am silly to worry over his
philanderings and let them make
me unhappy. that they mean Moth
ing. He cares nothing for these
women. he is only amusing himself
with them. and that should be glad
of them because they make him ap-
preciate me more and see how much
finer l am than they are"
Then this woman asks, as so many
other heartbroken and bewildered
women do: What should a wife do
with an unfaithful husband? And.
alas, there is no Solomon to answer
the question and solve. a problem
that has as many sides as there
are individual cases. and in which
right and wrong and wisdom and
foolishness are so inextricably mixed
that often it would take a seer to
distinguish between them. Nor can
any other ones experience be a
lamp to guide the feet of those who
are travelling through the valley of
despond, for no woman has ever
found a way of dealing with a phil
andering husband without paying
for it with her blood and tears and
agony.
Some say that when a husband
breaks bis marriage VOWS and flaunts
his infidelities in his wife's face that
her dignity and self-respect demand
that she should leave him. Fine
talk, and probably every wife's first
impulse when she finds out that her
husband has betrayed her is to pack
her trunk and leave.
But it isn't so easy to break up
home as all that. There are the

of the present occupants. Possibly
the carpenter will find where they
are entering and close up the place
and then you will be rio of them
for all time.
Dear Miss Novel;: We have a
ping-pong table that we like to take
out onto the brick terrace for play.
The terrace slopes slightly and it
is necessary to lengthen the legs on
one side. What would you suggest
to 90 under the legs and should it
be attached TO each of the three
legs? XII
AnsWer-The simplest thing would
be a board long enough to extend
under the three legs. It should be
planed off according to the slope
Of the terrace This will be easy
to take care of. make a perfect
adjustment, as all three legs will
be resting on it and will not be
easily lost.

children who adore their father.
And he is good father even if he is
a poor husband. Is not their claim
upon him stronger than hers? For
the sake of her hurt vanity and
her wounded heart is she going to
make them the poor little tramps
who wander from one parent to an
other, and one home to another,
until they lose all sense of security
and all respect and affection for the
man and woman who have cheated
them out of their birthright for the
pleasure of gratifying their own
passions?
True, the courts will award her
alimony, but she will get only a pit
tance of her husbands income in
stead of the whole that she gets
now, and if he marries again and
has another family the first will
run poor second. Nor is any
money so grudgingly paid as ali
mony. 1t burns the hands of the
woman who receives it, if she has
any independence of soul left in her.
Nor is divorce cure-all for the
wrongs that faithleSs husband in
flictS upon his wife. 1t has no magic
that turns her into a gay, light
hearted girl again. 1t does not even
kill her love for the charmer who
won her heart and then threw it
away because he wanted a fresh
plaything. 1t only leaves her a sad
dened. disillusioned woman, with
children to whom she has to be both
mother and father.
All that decree absolute brings
to many woman is the right to
go out and support herself and her
children; and as she looks at her
shabby surroundings, at her plain
food, at her children growing up
without the advantages their father
could have given them. she wonders
why she ever worried about her hus-
band gallivanting around with other
women, and wishes she had had
sense enough to hold on to her
home, her luxuries. her social posi-
ton, which are consolation prizes,
even if one loses a giddy husband.

| Why Grow
|Old?
Br Josephine Locman

We are as old as our muscles.
Terrible thought!
This varied assortment of elastic
human bands have a potent effect
on health. Since man assumed tne
upright position MS muscles have
been given a great responsibility.
MANY of the petty discomforts which
harass our pep come from muscle
weakness This can be remedled!
The prevalence of hernia among
men and prolapSed abdomens among
women can in part be blamed on
muscular deficiency. and fiat 1eet
are a direct result of it.
Every woman who wishes to re-
main youthful, which is the same
as saving all women. should develop
a strong set of abdominal muscles.
otherwise internal organs may sag,
and she NAV suffer from backache
and extreme fatigue. These muscles
respond quickly to daily workouts.
The lower abdominal wall IS OF
particular Importance to feminine
well-being. This exercise Will
strengthen it:

rooms, rather than in the old family
homestead. Consequently, their
clothes budgets are a bit less, but
they still want classic, basic dresses
and smart hats at prices they can
afford. They're swinging to color, too,
since it's been discovered that most
employers do not object, so you may
expect to see local lovelies in bright
wool frockS this fall, with the long
torso dirndl replacing, to some ex-
tent, the ever-good ShirtWaiSt style.
They frown on sloppy "sheep-dogp
Coiffures and have taken to the new
short haircuts with a gleeful eye to
that extra sleeping time an easy
coiffure affords in the early hours of
the GAVIN. They cling to quiet
shades of nail polish for daytime, but
go wild for bright tones in the eve
ming, and they are surprisingly
chic, knowing that much of their
success in the business world de-
pends upon their good grooming.
Experts tell us even irregular
features can be overcome by the
proper choice of clothes, cosmetics,
an air of SmartneSS and the proper
attention to poise and posture. Most
business girls like athletics, in
dulging in them after work or on
week ends. Bowling is a particu-
larly popular way to get rid of that
desk-chair slump. AS a matter of
fact. the vital, natural type of girl
is top woman at the moment.
In the summer Washington career
creatures like tWo-piece dresses, big
brimmed hats, soft, cool colors, such
as blue ahd green. and cottons
of all types. The survey shows that
their chief Office woes in the hot
weather include having nothing to
do, typing columns of figures, using
sticky carbohs and just plain filing.
They keep cool by putting linen
towels over the back of the chair,
wearing half-slips Though they
grin and bear girdlesl, taking salt
tablets and changing makeup fire.
quently The important prob
lem of keeping the boss cool and
happy is usually accomplished, by
staying out of his way, keeping
two jumps ahead of him and re-
framing from any comment on the
weather.
With over 100000 career girls
facing much the same problems it's
small wonder that the fashion pow
ers-that-be decided to pay them a
bit of attention Looks like
smoother sailing for the busy busi-
ness girl from here on in.

his sandwiches made from bread

adults are accustomed to. Sandwich

Thank you for writing. Mrs. c. D.
1t is obvious that you have a de-
voted interest in your young daugh-
ter and want to help her. but I
do not think that you understand
her.
Stop for q moment. please. and
try to remember your feelings when
you were her age. II you are beau
tiful now you must have been a
very lovely child and therefore even
during your adolescence you had
the beginnings of the self-confdence
that beauty generally builds But
don't you recall when you were a
gangling girl, too big to play with
paper dolls and too young to go out
with boys, dismayed over the blem-
ishes on your pretty face and often
convinced that no one loved or
wanted you? I am sure that you
felt these miserable thoughts just
as almost all of us have
I know the mother of homely
child who succeeded in making her
daughter radiant with charm. She
accomplished this by praise. 1
watched the upbringing of this girl
through the years and I admire
this mothers intelligent understand
ing of the pangs of adolescence. She
emphasized her daughters good
points, she taught her to be gracious,
courteous and gay, and told her
the truth, which is that these assets
are more valuable in winning
friends than a pretty face.
Why do you not try the same
tact?- Do not be impatient or try
to force your child: do not think
that she is silly when in truth she
is obviously suffering a great deal.
Boost her before her friends and
yours, buy her frocks that empha-
size her nice figure and tell her
to stand, walk and sit tall so that
she will have a graceful carriage
and distinguished look.
Some day, when the opportunity
presents itself, discuss her lack of
good looks with her openly and
honestly, and show her. by quoting
the names of famous actresses, how
unnecessary facial beauty is to
charm. loneliness of spirit, mind
and character, are what make for
enchantment and draw friends as
magnet draws steel.
Style, neat grooming. gentleness,
sweet consideration Of others on the
part of a young girl, keen wit and
the ability to listen, good sports
manship and the knowledge of
sports are far more sought and
admired than an exquisite face
without these qualities.
Teach her to be extremely neat
in her dress, very careful of the
care of her hair and nails snd she
should wash her face night and
morning with q mildly medicated
soap. In short. stress her assets
