FEELING SORRY FOR SELF IS A TREMENDOUS HANDICAP

It Binds You With Soft and Subtle Chains So That Reason and Logic Have a Hard Time to Reach You, Says Martha Lee. \ By Martha Lee Are you sorry for yourself? You’re tremendously handicapped if you are.

Self pity binds with soft and subtle chains because it makes you justify yourself in your troubles. Ts you’re sorry for yourself, you’re almost certain to hold resentment. Somebody’s t.o blame for your discomforts and rolled around in the soothing folds of self pity, reason and logic have a hard time to reach you. If you don’t want to tie yourself up in a tight and selfisy mental knot, refuse to he sorry for yourself. Time Hangs Heavily Dear Martha Lee: I wish you could give me some advice. I am a married '■.Oman and I’ve been unfortunate in the man I got. He doesn't understand a woman and he just wants to sit around in the evening and play cards or the radio. He laughs at my "moods’ as he calls them. I have no children and the time sure hangs heavily. I'm not where I belong. I know ihat. I don't see much to life anyway. Mrs. C. T. M. I’m wondering if you can’t resolve to not mind the quiet home evenings, if you have the whole day to go places and entertain yourself. If you had a houseful of little children, with a world of monotonous tasks, you might resent the uneventful evenings. A As it is, your day time seems to Tie your own, and the picture you draw of your husband seems to indihim a home loving, good nai -od man. You are fortunate in the fact that he laughs at your moods instead of being angered by them- I can’t see that your troubles are very large, Mrs, C. T. M. He Is Married Dear Martha Lee: I am a girl 18 years old. considered good-looking. I hare been going with a married man for four months. He fust told me the other day. and that he has a little child. He says he was forced to marry his wife, does not love her and never did. He ws nut. to see her th* other day and asked her to divorce him, and she £ d t0 Bh dV? oUjd ' '^ dat HE ARTBROKE Jf I£e You are on very dangerous ground, in my opinion. The chances are very good, that his wife doesn’t know he contemplates a divorce. What he has told you are favorite statements made by married men who want to have an affair with young girls and want to make it seem all right. You may not believe it, but it’s quite likely that he and his wife are not uncongenial. Os course he has to tell you that they are. Be careful. He Scattered Coal Dear Martha Lee: I am a stepmother, ut years old. Two children of my own aid four stepchildren. I am loved and beyed by all the children, but my husband i:: jealous and very mean to me. On one occasion, he scattered a basket of coal 'com the front room to the kitchen. He is a good provider, and gives me all he makes :nd at times seems to love me. My own children make their own way. When I speak of leaving him. hie own children ask roe not to. and the baby girl at the thought. I am almost a nerwreck. MRS. F. B. You are doing a very admirable tiring in being a good mother to those motherless ones, and this realisation should comfort you and enable you to bear with your husband’s temper. You have much to be thankful for in spite of the discord, and the fact that he provides well and trusts you with the family funds, indicates that he cares for you and respects you. Try and bear with his faults. Went With Another Man Dear Martha Lee: I wish you would tell me what to do. I have been going with a girl for fourteen months, but recently she went out with another fellow, and he has told roe that she let him kiss her. I asked her about it and she lied, but later admitted it. 1 got sore and told her not to speak to me again.

Nature Doesn’t Punish _ Her Any Longer Menstruation is Nature —but menstrual pain is NOT natural, and not necessary. Science lias conquered the painful part. In a harmless —yes, healthful —little tablet called midol. Midol is a more remarkable means of relieving such pain that even a habit-forming drug. It acts directly on the organs effected by menstruation, and relief conies in five to seven minutes. Don’t have another day of forced quiet, of pain, low spirits or even discomfort! Midol is effective twelve hours or more. Tet it does not depress the heart, is not narcotic, and is uttterly harmless.

She also told me that she was going to be home that night, but stayed out until 2 a. m. However, she tells friends she loves me. and do you think I should give her another chance after this, has happened? GEORGE IV. I believe I would, George. This experience will show her that the fellow who is given easy permission to “neck” usually tells the other fellows. Her other actions were not admirable either, but if this is the first time in the fourteen months that she’s displeased and deceived you, you might give her “another chance.”

CHARACTER BREAD, HER FAVORITE Into Her Loaves, Writer Bakes Personality Gives Recipe.

Dorothy Walworth Carman EDITOR’S NOTE: Dorothy Walworth Carman, author of “The Pride of the Town,” and other novels, is as proud of her own bread as of her literary attainments. She gives her recipe for “character” bread. By Dorothy Walworth Carman I have never liked people without character,’ or food without character. I think baker’s bread, as a rule, has no personality, so I bake my own. I sandwich it in with my writing, somehow, and I And it does not mean much work, because I have a bread mixer, a blessing no one should be without. Here is the recipe: “Character Bread Five cups liquid (milk or water, or a mixture of both), one large tablespoon butter, two sifters flour, three large tablespoons sugar, one level tablespoon salt, one yeast cake dissolved in luke-warm water. Sift all the dry ingredients together. If part milk is used, scald it and melt butter in it. Put the liquids and yeast in the mixer first, add the sifted ingredients, and turn the mixer for eight minutes. I have often turned the mixer with one hand and held an interesting book in the other. No Kneading Os course I leave the dough in the mixer to rise over night in a warm place. Next morning I pop it out of the mixer straight into the bread tins, let rise again, and bake about an hour in a moderate oven. There is no kneading, because the mixer does all that. This recipe will make three loaves and one dozen biscuits, and I guarantee it will be bread with a personality—crusty and flavored.

Faith's eyes flow wide with interest and hope. “Has he had any luck yet? Does he know who wrote the letter?” “Not so fast! 5 ’ Bob grinned at her. “Churchill’s had a special investigator, Crowell, I believe his name is, going over court records with a fine-tooth comb. He hew a list of about five possibilities. - all cases in which Uncle Ralph defended but failed to get an acquittal. He dug into the records of from ten to fifteen years ago.” “But what will Churchill do now? The time is so short!” Faith cried despairingly. "Oh, he can easily get a continuation to the next term of court,” Bob reassured her. “But of course, none of us wants Cherry to stay in jail a day longer than is necessary. Crowell is going to make the rounds of the State prisons and then run down to Leavenworth if the prisons yield no clew.” "Have you seen Banning, the district attorney, the last few days?” Faith asked. “He sent for me today,” Bob acknowledged. “Wanted to cjuestion me about my testimony. You know, dear, I shall be called as a witness for the prosecution. It’s inevitable. My testimony is absolutely required, since it was I who discovered the—the body. He knows I am friendly to the defense, naturally, and I have a hunch that they will keep me on the stand just as short a time as possible. Don't look like that, darling,” he begged, reaching for her trembling hands. Faith nodded, biting her lip. "I know you will do everything in the world you can to help Cherry. Oh, by the way, I heard today that Mrs. Seymour Allbright has arrived in New York on her way home from Switzerland. She'll be here for the trial.” “Good Lord,” Bob groaned. “Why couldn't Aunt Alice have stayed in Switzerland?” ‘ She’s probably interested in seeing her brother's murderer brought to justice,” Faith said bitterly. “Os course she wants to believe that Cherry did It —she hated Cherry. Oh when I think of the whole Cluny clan lined up against one poor little frightened girl, all their millions throivn against her, to force her into the electric chair or prison for ’ life—” “You forget that she is young and beautiful—-two weapons more powerful than any defense, except a murderer’s confession, that Churchill could use against the prosecution,” Bob reminded her. "And she is not friendless. George Pruitt came to me today and offered any sum up to 810,000 —all of his personal fortune before he receives his inheritance from his father —to help clear her, if it is needed. He made it quite plain, however, that he was thinking of you. rather than of Cherry. He still loves you. Faith. T don’t
