■ Martha Lee Says—‘Spoiled’ Husband Never Appreciates Sacrifices

The mother who loves her child “too much to deny him anvtliing” gets little thanks for the sacrifices she makes. Nor does the wife who loves her husband so much that she “gives up everything for him ’’ find him any more appreciative because of this fact.

Os course, a wise wife “babies” her husband to a certain extent. But sha 1 does not spoil him. any more than | she would spoil her son. She gives In to him many times a day, but she holds inviolate her important "rights.” She does not let her husband get the ! impression that anything he does is right in her eyes. The "spoiled” husband, just like the spoiled child, loses his sense of proportion. Because he is “king” to one j person he frequently becomes a tyrant. Too Much Sacrifice Dear Miss Le.>: I love my husband better than anyone else in' the world. I have givon up friends, relatives and everything that has any pleasure in it. for him. Br.* he doesn't seem to appreciate anything 1 do. At times he acts as if he loves me and at other times, as if he hates me. I get the blame for everything: that goes wrong. We live with my mother-in-law. We had a baby girl about three months ago and it died. I think my husband’s love I died with it. We were happy until then. H told me the other day that he was tired jof married life. You know that if he loved ! me. he would not tire of me so soon. His sister has been telling my husband | lies about me. I tell him the truth, but ihe will not believe me. T tokl him we ; wou'd get along better by ourselves, if wo 1 had on’y one or two rooms, but it does no ! good He won't let me go any place and I I won't re ' keep him from getting mad I and quarreling. I h,iv<- .no. ght of ending it all, for I cannot have the thing I prize most, his love. But I know that would be a coward s way. What must I do—get a Job and go away -where I will never see him again? But then I would surely die. I feel as If my heart is going to break some time. A WOUNDED HEART. You have spoiled your husband. | That fact, plus too inuen family-in-j law, is causing your trouble now. It | would be well for you and your hus- | band to live alone, but you cannot j force him to move. However, you can assert yourself, Instead of letting your husband and sister-in-law "walk over" you. Keep on loving your husband, but don't let him think that you will forgive him, no matter what he does. Control your love enough to coquette a bit with him. That’s part of the “game” If the husband begins to weary of marriage. Don’t be ever before him, sweetly awaiting to do his bidding. Be sweet, but at the same time call on some of the arts you used to make him love you before marriage. If von keep your head and play this difficult game of love wisely, you have a good chance to win out. "Wondering" wrote to Martha Le<* that she had eloped two months before. fihe wanted to return home to | see her family, but was afraid they I would separate her from her husband. A woman who believes “Wondering” | is her daughter sends this appeal to ! the girl: Dad and all of your loved ones *ay “Come home, daughter and beloved ai " ! Dear, how we all miss you. Only 15 years old and led away by someone who thinks only of hl own selfishness Do you think he * worthy of a young girl? Should she sacrifice her young life? ONLY A MOTHER Kept Tn Doubt Dear Mis* Lee—l am a constant reader of your column and think that If your advice was followed more, there would he much ! cse family trouble. I have been writing to a girl I have known si<-e childhood I have gone with her a little I am not going to say T love her. but I believe T could if I had a chance She has not answered my last letter If I don't hear from her before Christmas should I send her anything? 1 am 20 years young and she is the same. SALTY. At least, she’s not "working" you for a Christmas present, is she. Salty? Yes, I think you might as well send her a gift, even though she is a poor correspondent. You will be happier if you do. Possibly your let- | ters are too ardent and the girl wants to let you know she thinks of you only as a friend. Helps in Etiquette Dear Mias Lee 1. Wnen a boy walks with two girls, should he walk on the outi side or In the middle? 2. When two couples go to a theater, how ; should they he seated? 3. How should two couples be seated in j a street car? 4 Ts I were talking with one man. and another man should come along, which of the two should lie mentioned first in the in I troduetion? TWO FRIENDS 1. On the outside. t 2. With a man on each end. 3. Thankfully, if they can all find I seats. Again, the girls should sit In I the center. 4. Tr. Introducing two men, name j the elder first, If there Is a notice- | able difference in agets.. Otherwise, it I is immaterial.

LETTER FROM LESLIE PRESCOTT TO LESLIE PRESCOTT, CARE OF THE SECRET DRAWER. Last night, little Marquise, Jack and I had the worst quarrel we ever had In our lives. After I had telegraphed mother that I would .meet her in New York I began to get things together, for I had determined to leave early the next morning. Mother's going seemed a real act of Providence, for it would give me an excuse to see Karl’s lawyers. It never entered my mind that Jack would object to my going, and so when he came home that night I casually remarked at dinner that I had gotten reservation on the

"Mother and dad are going to sail on the tenth for England and they are going to be a few days in New York.” “Why was I not told of this before?” I don’t know whether I was more suprised than enraged at the question, little Marquise. I tried to keep as cool as possible, however, and informed him that it was simply because I did not get the letter until

the"* afternoon of that day. Then I had telegraphed mother I would meet her at the Waldorf tomorrow. “I was in my office all afternoon. It would have been a very easy thing to have telephoned me before you wired.” Jack looked right through me Into space and his words cut the air like a knife. ‘What for?” I asked shortly. Then what he had implied became clear to me. I grew more and more furious. “What difference would phoning you make, Jack? What had you to do with the matter? I was under the impression that I was ‘free, white and twenty-one.’ Do you mean to tell me that you would have refused or at least tried to keep me from going to bid my mother and father good-by when they are going on a trip of indefinite duration?” Jack saw he had made a mistake. ‘Of course not, but I think you

I am very tired of you arrogating to yourself the privilege of doing as you please, under all circumstances, while insisting that I shall consult you on every little thing.
