Hoar Miss Flo:—
i have boon married twenty years.
My husband was a poor man when !
married him. By work it.* hard,
struggling and saving. we !molly go:
a far!. After that, it was easy. My
husband made money rtmekiy. He made
many business Inends. II,<• hrd fKeiir
wives, and families. H..»yjVijflipviti-n
out often tb dinners, th"sahBytc. I
did not. enro for that , ortpfpgh'j;. }
tlirrnyi't rt wff' wavfct'tui
the money wy had worked!!jfafd for
i> i extravagant pleasure:*^ wwanied
him to save money, in the end. I have
pa iied nothing i am very unhappy,
struggling in order that we might
have enough tn eat, we were hnppv.
My husband adored me. Now he is
totally indifferent. He il oufc^cvery
evening. He. never agltswnicSo go
with 1 im. I "believe he is in love wifh |
another woman. Do yon think I should
give him his freedom?

Give him Iris freedom, Francine?
Of course NO. In the first place, you
are not sure that there is another
woman—-or .that he wants his iree
doni, so why should you give up
everything that, you have worked and
slaved for all these years? Another
. thing to consider, unless you are in
dependent financially, is that you
might find it rather difficult to sup
port yourself. If you doubt this, all
l you have to do is look around you,
i and see the countless number of wo
j men, past their youth, trying to sup
port themselves in a world that has
; no use for their services. At your
time of life physical comforts and an

This delightful. long
lasting - beneficial
refreshment gives
the penny a bigger
value.
u ItS so ocol and sweet
- after smoking.
And then when you
I *■>».,> get nome. mow eager
jlr
•assure*I income are more important
than romantic love.
My advice to you. Franoino, is to
stop worrying about losing your hus- i
band's lov^ftmd try to hold it. From I
whaf yep: have Written, I believe that
it has been a Tong time since .you
were really a companion to your hus
band. i believe that you have saved I
so long that it became a habit with j
you, and you still consider it a crime |
to spend a dollar for pleasure.
YoUr' story is an old one. Recently
the papers were full of a story of a
woman, who, outraged and infuriated
because her husband seemed to be
giving more attention to other wo
men than he was giving her, attempt
ed to get £ divorce. The husband told
his story. It was something like this.
He made money. He wanted “to-dress
his wife no like a rnilUon dollars”,
to use his expression, but she re
fused to he dressed up. He invited
her out to dinners, theatres, and oth
er places, but she refused to go.
Well, to make a long story short
he stopped asking her to go out, and
went out alone—-for a while.
There are many foolish wives
making the same mistake—not re
alizing that the easiest way to get
farther away from a husband is to
let. other people have the good times
with him while she remains his sav
I ing hank. It is a wise wife who is
her husband’s best “good fellow.”
If T were you, the first thing I
j should do is purchase some new
I clothes, and make myself as at
tractive as I possibly 'could. You
were attractive to him at one time.
No reason in tlm world y/hy you can
! not make yourself just as attractive !
again. Surprise him some day by
i casually Suggesting that it has been
! a long time since you have seen a
! show together.
It may be that your husband is
I giving his time to another woman,
j -—again, your suspicions may he en
; tircly unwarranted. But if there is
i another woman, the chances age that
j he was driven into an infatuation by
■ loneliness and a longing for compan
j ionship. H it is merely infatuation,
■ it won’t be hard to win him atvay
| front it.
j After all, the years you struggled
| together mean something, to him, and
| when he sees thht you are really
j trying to make things more pleasant,
j hr wilt soon tire of the other woman,
! and return to the love of his youth.
