Dear Abby f Wife is no longer laughing at husband’s tiresome joke
DEAR ABBY: This afternoon, When the newsboy delivered our paper, my husband invited him in, in order to tip him. I happened to be ir( the room, so my husband said to the bo/, “Meet my wife but don’t laugh!” Over the 40-some years we’ve been married, he’s used this kind of introduction innumerable times, and everyone laughs. I do not think this kind of introduction is amusing and have told him time and again, to no avail. ; Today, however, I felt that I had really had enough and I told him so. His defense: “You have no sense of Humor.” Abby, how would you judge this 9 HAD ENOUGH IN WISCONSIN DEAR HAD ENOUGH: It’s your husband who has no sense of humor. But that’s not all he lacks; he also lacks sensitivity, dipm passion and respect for his \fcife of more than 40 years. £' People sometimes laugh out of embarrassment, shock, or the iUappropriateness of a remark, pear lady, if your husband has some positive qualities to offset the obvious negative ones, please rqsh them to me so I can sleep better tonight. •'?' ♦ * » DEAR ABBY: I was very much amused by the letter from a mother who received outraged insults whenever she took her children out in public on leashes. 1 : In England, “harnesses” are much mbre accepted perhaps because people walk more in England than vyfe- do in the States. So when my hiisband was an exchange teacher in London for a year, I purchased leather harnesses for our 18-Tnonth-ol'd twin daughters. They didn’t seem tppbject, and it gave me a great deal oj peace of mind. It wasn’t until we were back in the States and we changed planes in Dallas that I realized how many Americans felt about children on leashes! I received dirty looks, muffled negative comments and some outright insulting criticism as Wfe strolled through the Dallas airport. I felt like a criminal. Then a very distinguished older gentleman approached me with a smile and said, “How I wish those things were ground when my twin girls were al?out the age of yours!” Believe me, Abby, that man made my day. h LOVING MOM IN SACRAMENTO

DEAR MOM: Knowing something about what a handful a pair of spirited 2-year-old twins can be, I’m sure my dear, departed mother would also have appreciated some kind of “harness” for her twins. * * * DEAR ABBY: Many years ago, I wrote to you about a problem I was having with my fiance. Whenever he lost his temper, he would curse. He never used obscenities; he would curse taking the name of the Lord in vain, such as, “Oh, God d— it!” You suggested that he substitute some other phrase, so being an opera lover, he’d say, “Oh, Gotterdammerung it!” It diffused his anger, broke the tension, and brought a little laughter into the conversation. SAN FRANCISCAN ♦ * * DEAR ABBY: lam tired of people’s complaints about barking dogs. Unless a person lives jn the country with a couple of acres between houses, there is no way sounds can be eliminated, other than eliminating the dogs, cats, roosters, whatever. People have gotten used to the sound of trucks, highway traffic, screeching tires, electric mowers, electric saws, airplanes, buses, sirens and dozens of other sounds but let a dog bark, and all h— breaks loose! There’s a barker across the street from us and a highway three blocks away, and I’ll take the barker any day; I can’t call the police about the highway noise. JULIE IN TULARE DEAR JULIE: You failed to mention that a barking dog discourages burglars not only in the owner’s home, but the neighbors’ too.
