HERE’S A WORD FOR MOTHERS AND DAUGHTERS-IN-LAW
The Viewpoint Is the Thing, Martha Lee Tells Woman Who Objects to the ‘Extravagance’ of Her Son’s Wise —Tolerance Urged. By Martha Lee Why can't we respect the other fellows point of view? Looked at from different angles of interest, the same thing
will often take on many aspects
Three men recently- took a walk together in a suburban place. "That house is settling—it’s out of plumb,” said the first man, a carpenter, pointing to a dwelling. “Tljere’s a line of hedge badly placed,” the second man of the group, who happened to be a landscape gardener, said. ‘"Fine soil around here. Should produce good crops,” the third man, ; who had been a farmer all his life, remarked. Each saw the scene from a different mental angle. We would often be more generous with what the other fellow thinks if we could predate the point of view from which he sees the matter. Disapproves of Her Dear Martha Lee: I wish you would tell me what you think about this. Mv daughter-in-law is very extravagant. She wants the best of everything. She won't buy anything cheap and it looks to me as if my son will never be able to get ahead. He does not seem to see this and savs that what she does suits him. but I think hr will wake up some day and think differently. It certainly worries me to watch how they live. MRS. M. There are different theories regarding the best jvay to be saving. Some folks claim that the best is the cheapest in the long run and your daughter-in-law may make her purchases with this in mind. Anyway, do you think it quite wise to give their domestic affairs such close attention? After all, they must live their own lives, and make their own mistakes, you know. His Wife Left Him Pear Martha Lee: Will you help me? I am almost crazy. My wife has left me and I do not know where she is. I love her. We have been married twelve years. There has never been any other woman in mv life. This is what happened. The Ollier night was her birthday and to celebrate. we went to a dance. Some comolimentary remarks that were made to her there, made the devil rise in me. I demanlkd that she go home. She did not realize how angry I was and in some remarks afterwards. she made me so mad. I struck her. Os course I had never before done such a thing and she was so surprised, that she did not say a word. I left the house for about an hour and when I came back she was gone with some of her clothes. Oh Miss Lee. I hate and detest mvsclf. I am almost crazy. The house is nothing without her. I would get down on my knees and ask her forgiveness. Please Print this. Maybe it will meet her eye and slje "ill know that because of this I have almost lost my mind. I know I am the— CHAMPION FOOL. That was a miserable thing you did and of course a woman with spirit would act just as she has done but I feel certain that she will forgive you if she realizes how terribly you’ve regretted this. If she does read this colunrn as you seem to think, I would advise her 'to forgive as this was so unusual an action on your part. As yo\i two have been happy for twelve years and there has been no trouble before, this will almost cer ; t inly straighten out. She surely | nows your great love for her and ' ':.'s will bring) her back, I feel certain. Expenses Embarrass Him De.vr Martha Lee: There are several of rs who ••hum together. We get along just fine, but 1 feel that T am imposing for
A RARE DISH—ESTELLE'S EGGS A LA JACK DEMPSEY
By Sister Mary Estelle Taylor, the beautiful, has two careers. Asa moving picture star she is widely known although it is as the wife of Jack Dempsey, once* king of the prize ring, that she has perhaps gained greater fame. As the latter, too, she achieved distinction in the kitchen. This is how it came about. Nameless Delectable At a dinner party in the handsome Dempsey home in California the hostess served a unique dish. So delicate was it that one of her guests asked what it -was called. “I have no idea for a name for it,” Estelle replied. ‘‘Here's one,” suggested another guest. ‘‘Call it eggs ala Dempsey!” And so it was. This is the original recipe: How It’s Done Cool and peel three hard-boiled eggs. Sliced into halves, topping the rounded end of each half so that it will stand yolk end up. Remove and mash the yolks, adding two teaspoons of anchovy sauce, one tablespoon cream, half a teaspoon of dry mustard. A Work together and when thoroughly mixed, fill in the * hites with the mixture. Cut a French olive around the stone into lengthwise strips and place one strip across the top of each egg to resemble a basket handle.
Children Cry For
CASTORIA i X
When Baby Complains. There are many ways a baby has of expressing any pain or irreg-ulanty or digression from its normal condition of health an a happiness. A short sharp cry, a prolonged irritated cry. .Restlessness, a constant turning of the head or of the whole oody, fretful. In these and other ways a baby tells you there .3 something wrong. Most mothers know that a disordered . .oniuch, or bowels that do not act naturally are the cause of most of baby’s sufferings. A call for the doctor is the first thought, but in the event of any delay there should be ready at hand a safe remedy such as Fletcher’s Castoria. Castoria has been used for baby’s ailments for over 30 years and has merited the good will of the family physician in a pleasure not equaled by any other baby’s medicine because of V s harmlessness and the good results achieved. And remember this: Castoria is essentially a baby’s remedy and not a cure-all for every member of the family. What might help you is too often dangerous when given to a babe. To avoid imitations, always look for the signature of Proven directions on each package. Physicians everywhere recommend it

this reason: One of these friends has a fine car and will not pay any of the expensed when we are out as he seems to think the use of his car covers this. The other friend whose car isn't so good, has to spend his money, hut passes it off as a joke. It places me in an embarrassing situation. What shall ? do? MORRIS. Talk of it frankly. Say that you want to share jtour rightful part of the expense, but don’t know just what it is and they must tell you. *f the arrangement between those having cars is not an even break, that is not your affair. Housekeeper Rather Than Wife Dear lifkrtha Lee: I am more like mv husband's housekeeper than a wife. I wou and like to have a friend and a pal. someone that would ears for me. but I have not. My husband was the best kind of man before he went into business for himself and I believe he must have found someone he cares more for, or he would not act this way. Nobody coma, understand him. He dors not care if I have any clothes and I have a hard time getting any money from him. but he gets whatever he wants for himself. Should I leave him or not? LONESOME WIFE. There's a possibility that since he has gone into business his responsibilities have so increased that it has affected his disposition. It is a bit difficult for sheltered home women, to realize how burdensome business problems sometimes seem. It is unlikely that the difference in his manner is due to any other woman. Try to dismiss such a thought.

WOMEN STILL WEAKER SEX, SAYS MANLY TRIO - Physical Directors of Hoosier, Indianapolis Athletic Clubs and Y. M. C. A, Venture a Word.
By Eldora Field Is this good news or bad? Woman is still the weaker sex. Dr. Herman Morgan, board of health secretary, made the statement that considering woman’s ability to wear the thinnest kind of clothing in the worst kind of weather, a procedure that “would kill a man,” she has become the stronger sex. Still the Weaker George W. Lipps, physical director of the Hoosier Athletic Club, considering that a woman was asking him to verify the assertion! swallowed several times and gallantly tried to say it was true, but he couldn’t quite make it. “Well er, it’s within the possibilities to think she might reach the point where it would be incongruous to refer to her as ‘the weaker sex,’ ” he began cautiously, “but in spite of the remarkable advance she’s made by reason of much outdoor living and athletic activities, she has a long way to go before this can no longer be said of her.” Doing Better Ellsworth S. Krantz, physical education director of the Indianapolis Atnietic Club, determined to be accommodating, almost agreed with Dr. Morgan, but retrieved before he had gone too far. “It’s remarkable—the advanbe women have made physically in the last few years,” he said. “In another generation, she will be—well maybe, she won't be the stronger sex, but I’ll bet we’ll hesitate by that time to call her the weaker.” “Her mental attitude has a lot to do with her advance in physical strength and in breaking athletic records. As long as she was told she couldn’t do the difficult physical things, she couldn.t Now that she knows something of her possibilities—well. she may still be entitled to be called the weaker sex, but she's not so weak at that.’ And feeling that he had disposed of the question rather neatly, Krantz hastily changed the subject. Women Ovcr-raled TL L Konecke, athletic director of the Y. M. C. A., was instantly of the opinion that Dr. Morgan was

COOLIDGE LEARNING TO SAY ‘SWEET NOTHINGS’ And Here’s the Stfory That Made the President Laugh His Most Famous Laugh.

entirely too optimistic regarding woman's increased physical prowess. “Woman will never be man’s physical equal; nature has attended to that,” he remarked. “She’s not constituted to be, and while athletics have increased her physical efficiency fully 100 per cent, she will, in my opinion, always be the weaker sex.” So that’s that, ladies!
Pains That Never Came Here's glorious news for longsuffering womankind! To every woman who periodically has suffered i pain. Menstruation need no longei be painful. And it is Science that is speaking. Specialists have developed a tiny tablet called midol. It’s a simple thing, utterly harmless to a girl of fourteen, but it brings relief in five to seven minutes. And is effective twele hours or longer! Midol is NOT a narcotic. Tt has no effect whatever on heart or nervous system. It acts directly on those organs affected by menstruation. They function normally, as they should, but the pain is banished. Complete relief—yes, perfect comfort —follows midol.

cosy decks are the scene of the best Coolidge stories. One goes like this: Mrs. Coolidge sat in a deck chair, a shawl or robe spread over her knees. > “Are you cold?” someone solicitously asked. “No,” she laughed, “I’ve only learned my lesson.” She told then of a recent woman guest on the yacht who seemed selfconscious of her short skirts, trying to pull them down as th§ breezes blew. “Finally,” she said, “Mr. Coolidge brought a shawl, wrapped it around

her, and said, ‘There, I think you will be much more comfortable!’ ” “1 took the hint because I, too, have the habit of ‘tugging them down,’ so I use a lap robe.” The little story is a symbol of the First Lady’s frank nature. If she has a story to tell, she tells it, regardless of what this one or that one might think. It is no secret that certain prominent Republican National Committee men have declared that Mrs. Calvin Coolidge is worth a round million dollars in publicity to the G. O. P. cause, and that this contribution lies in one word —“charm.” Washington women who have been taken in to dinner by the President, tell stories on the President as a table companion. Mrs. Hendrik Shipstead earned a headline this winter as “ the woman who made the President laugh.” It seems that at one or two of the most stately dinners, the White House dogs have strayed into the state dining roomand that the Presi-

dent knows the art of deftly slipping | a chicken bone under the napery to them, without any visiting potentate detecting him. • The dogs, waiting for their belated bone, gnawed at Mrs. Shipstead’s slipper. The President waxed wroth and was about to shoo them forth, but she protested. “I adore dogs, she told him. "When my young son’s friends learned that we were coming to Washington, they said, ‘Gee, maybe Rex (our dog) can play with the White House dogs.’ And the young son, aghast, said, ‘What? Rex play with those cake eaters? Not on your life!’ ” Gossip has it that the President laughed a laugh which will go down in history. Washington women love to tell tales over the tea cups of “what Mr. Coolidge said to me and what I said to him,” when they have been his dinner companions. They say that the President is learning the game of "small talk”
