CONTENTMENT IS A PRETTY PICTURE/BUT DANGEROUS

peeking Fresh Mental Interests Keeps Away the Blues, * Discouraged Wife is Told —Active Minds, Alert to Human Interests, Necessary Today. By Martha Lee Little white clouds, hanging in an azure sky; green lush grass; peaceful looking cattle, chewing cuds while standing knee deep in warm-looking, quiet pools of water. You’ve seen the picture. It epitomizes “contentment.”

Some minds are like that. Everything still, almost stagnant; no ripples, just quiet, everything about the same, day after day. Sounds all right, but a merely contented mind doesn’t stand up so well under present day needs as the active mind, alert to human interests, variety of outlook, contact with other active minds. Seeking fresh mental interests routs and keeps away the “blues. v Many persons, pursuing the even tenor of their ways, grow unhappy because they do not vary the monotony of .their living conditions. They think the same things, talk with the same folks, do the same things day after day, month after month, j It’s not healthful. Life Has Grown Dull Dear Martha Lee: X wonder if you can help me as I sometimes think I am losing my mind. I have been married twentyfour years and my husband is a good enough man. but all he talks about is ■paving for our old age and although Miss ■•oc, T want to do my dutv. I can t stand life much longer. We live on the edge of town. Mv husband works in a car shop and we have a few chickens and this is all I have to interest me. Wo never go any place as m.v husband won't. It’s only about the la9t five or six years I have felt this way Do you think it’s mv age and will I get over it? I am 48 years old. I have headaches all the time almost. DISCOURAGED WIFE. Pen up those chickens, put on your bonnet and skip away from home several hours each day. All that is the matter is that you’ve stayed in too closely. You need a change of scene, contact with other folks’ thoughts. I don’t believe your ’health is the cause of your mental stress. Rather It’s the other way round. Your mental stress Is the cause of your headaches, etc. Don’t let a day pass without a change of scene of some kind. What Are His Intentions? Dear Martha Lee: lam a girl 32 years old and have been going with a man 31 years old for about a year. He proposed and wc planned to marry last August. At that time, however, he gave up his Position and left town for a while. Since coming back, bo has been acting very queerly. He refers occasionally to our marriage, and when I ask him when it will be he gave. “Some time, sweetheart.” Now. Miss Lee. I love this man dearly and believe his intentions toward me are sincere, for he says that ho has loved me ever since we met about ten years ago. but I can’t understand what has come over him. Would you insist that ho tell me what his plans are. or shall I let this drift along intll he fnda himself or lakes enough rope to hang himself? M. M It would be best not to force him, although he very evidently has something on his mind. If you can convey to him your understanding of * the fact that he is laboring with some problem, and still make him realize that you would be sympatthetic and not condemning If he ivould care to confide in. you, it will probably bring this to a head. Wants a New Profession Dear Martha Lee: I have often read your column and find it helnful. so I am coming to you for advice. I am a stenographer and have been Severn! months, but I do not like the work at all. in fact am disgusted with it. Could you suggest some kind of different course that I could adopt as a profession that would be different from stenographic work ? AMBITIOUS. As you tell me nothing of your qualifications, tastes, or past experiences, I have no clew with which to advise you. In a general way, I agree with your ambition to adopt work that is congenial, as one of the greatest blessings In the world, is to be engaged in work that is interesting to one. I have always felt that if a "person knows postively what kind of work he prefers, he can get into that work, if he is deterinined enough, although he may have to get on the very lowest round of the ladder. But there’s a way. Thinks of Leaving Husband Dear Martha Lee: I have been married eleven years, have two boys, one of whom 1- 10 vpnrs oM and the other 7. My husband and I don’t get along. He won’t et me have girl friends, accuses me of having men friends, and when I go to a show about twice a week he gets mad. 1 am thinking of getting a job and leaving him. Please advise me what to do. BROWN EYES ■ Stick to the home ship, Brown Eyes, for the sake of your hoys. You couldn’t get a position that would

Her Hair Fairly SPARKLES Now!

The -woman who knows what to do after waving her hair doesn’t fear the effect of hot Irons. Nor of frequent washings. A few drops of ■panderine —on comb or towel —and hair is soft and lustrous, and behaves beautifully. A bit of Danderine rubbed lightly into the scalp, is the one sure way to dissolve every particle of dandruff. But a few drops more make a dressing that is simply marvelous. A sheen that rivals brilliantine, and no grease! Any permanent wave or ifater wave lasts milch longer add

Cherry remained locked in her room until Frances Warren and Selma Pruitt had gone away, and after that until Mrs. Bane, who had begged in vain for admittance three times, used the best weapon she possessed to break Into that room of doubts and griefs and stormy passions. For Mrs. Lane gasped, closed her eyes, slumped low on the davenport, and gave every other indication of a heart attack which was only partially feigned. Faith ran to Cherry’s room and heat frantically upon the door. “Quick Cherry! Mother’s having an attack. She’s calling for you! It may kill her if you don’t come!” When Cherry flung open the door Faith cried out In pain and pity at the sight of the lovely, tear-ravaged little face. "Is she very bad. Faitlv?’’ Cherry began to sob against Faith’s neck. “Have I killed Muggy, Faith?” The sob-shaken little body was clad only in tho gauzy white chiffon “teddies," a garment which Cherry had filched from her own trousseau. Faith did not stop to dress her, but carried her to tho living room and laid her, as if she had been an infant, In Mrs. Lanes’ arms. “Feeling better, Mother? Here's Cherry, to say she’s sorry. I’ll get you some of your heart medicine, dear. Don’t talk if you don’t feel like it.” But when Faith returned with the tiny medicine glass of water, into which three drops of the potent dug had been measured, she found there was little need of It. Mrs. Lane was rocking her favorite child In her arms, and Cherry’s face was cuddled against her mother’s vast bosom, “Muggy’s baby!” Mrs. Lane was whispering huskily. “Oh, Muggy! I'm such a bad gfrl! I didn’t mean to fly off the handle like that! I wonder If Dad will ever forgive me? Where is he, Muggy?” “He’s In the kitchen,” Joy answered from her place of semi-conceal-ment on the floor at the end of the davenport. “He’s cryin’.” “Make him come In here, Faith!” Cherry pleaded. “Oh, Muggy, what’s going to become of me? Frances and Selma will hate me now. Maybe they won’t want to be at my wedding—” “Maybe you’d better ask Mr. Cluny to let you off,” Mrs. Lane suggested on a great sigh. “Your Pa’s so set agin it—” "No, I’ll go through with It nqw if it kills me,” Cherry’s voice broke on a sob. “Mr. Clunny’s been too good to me for mo to treat him like that. But I could simply kill myself for being so mean to you and Dad, and making a show of myself before Frances and Selma! Whatever in the world will they think of me? Selma’s just nieo to me because Georgo Is

Hair Cut at Age of Four Weeks

Jean La Verne Hazelwood was 4 months old when this picture was taken. She had a hair clip when only four weeks old, and is now wearing a shinglo hob. Jean is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. I>uko Hazelwood, tiie Grant Apts., Eleventh and Illinois Sts.

crazy about Faith—oh, Dad," as her father stooped, small figure shambled into the room, “I’m sorry, Daddy. I been crying my eyes out because I was so mean to you. Won't you forgive me. Dad? I didn’t mean It, honest I didn’t.” Jim took the little hand that was outstretched to him so appealingly and squeezed it convulsively.“Don’t you worry about me, Cherry. I’m gettln’ old, I guess. Seems like I can’t control my temper and my feelin's like I used to. I won’t put no more bars in you way o' marryin’ your man, Cherry. Ain’t no use, and I don’t want you hatin’ me. Now," his tired, sad eyes dwelt on her almost little nude body with a fleeting glance of embarasament. “Reckon you better get some clothes on or go to bed.” “You’re a good man, Jim. I always said you was a good man, but mulelsh,” Mrs. Lane sighed. “Now, Cherry, you write a nice, polite little note to Frances and Selma, tell ’em you’re sorry the evening didn’t turn out so pleasant, and ask ’em to forgive you. Don’t be mean yourself to them stuck-up little prisstes, but it’s no more’n right for you to apologize." “I will, Muggy. I wish I were good—like Faith,” she turned her face against her mother’s breast and face against her mother’s enormous j shoulders like a repentant child. All that terrible evening, the thought of Bob Hathaway and his love for her had quivered like a bar of Ineffable musio In Faith’s heart, sustaining her, making It possible for her to bear anything, even the tragic sadness in her father’s defeated old eyes. Now she wanted, above everything else, to bo alono with the realization of Bob’s love. Obeying an almost Irresistible Impulse, she began a letter to him, sitting up in her bed, a blankot fluffed about her shoulders, t “I have realized to night, darling, 'how miraculously blessed among all women I am. I have a moan little confession to mako to you, Bob. All my life I have envied Cherry. She has always had tho bent of everything—and mother always loved her best. When I was little, that hurt worse of all. But tonight I have realized that all that Cherry has Is less than nothing, compared with what she is missing through her marriage to a man she does not love. And all I have missed in the past Is ! made up a thousandfold by your love i for me.” “What are you doing?” a small, pathetic voice quavered from the j doorway. Faith, startled, dropped her foun- ] lain pen upon Joy’s sleeping face, cuddled close- against her for warmth. “Writing a letter. Why, honey?” "I—l want you to come and sleep with me,” Cherry pleaded forlornly. “If you don’t, I’ll jump out of the window and run away—with Chris.” (To Be Continued) (Copyright, 1026, NEA Service, Inc.)
