Divorce With Alimony Forms Whip and Tip for Tyrannical Husband BY MARTHA LEE SLAVE driver husbands still exist, even though we all think modern woman has too much intelligence to submit to any such tyrannical treatment. Occasionally I am amazed by letters I receive from my readers, letters stating facts that seem impossible in these modern times. If these mistreated women only knew, they have a very excellent whip to hold over these cruel husbands. That whip
is the divorce court with alimony as the piercing tip. Most of these men have such small natures that money means everything to them; consequently this threat to touch the pocketbook proves a most effective one. These men with warped dispositions refuse to take their wives anywhere, to give them any money, to buy them any clothes, and to speak a civil word around thehome.When the wife rightfully objects to such inhuman treatment, the husband tells her to go if she does not like it. Generally there are children to be considered, and the wife stays on bsca'.** s j she has no way to support the children if she were to leave. Let these selfish husbands find out that they are perfectly free to become single men again, but that that freedom will be as costly a one as the law allows. There is no reason why a man of that sort should r>: '- '** given the same lack cf consider?,n-n he gives his wife. ‘ Dear Martha Lee: I am a married roman with children, two Kills and a hoy. I have been married for fourteen years to a husband who Is discouraged .with life. He quarrels all the time, has never a smile and is never satisfied unless I am working. He never gives my children or me any money or will tell me what his pay is or about any of his business affairs. When I threaten to leave, which I really do not want to do. he tells me to co ahead, that he would en.loy being single again. He is more this way after he has talked with his parents who want him to come home as they have coaxed him away at different times. Miss Lee, I do what I can to stay away from them, but they ('{me to see him and tell me to leave when they are there as it is their son's house'. Would you leave while the children are young, or would vou go ahead and live thin life? •JANIE MAY. Dear Janie May: Absolutely leave this man unless he changes his ways. I know it is hard on children to have the parents separated, but it Is much mere detrimental to their characters to have them associated with such a contemptible creature as this person you married. Bluntly tell this man that you can not stand such ridiculous treatment. Tell him that no court, in the country would fail to grant a divorce to a woman who has been accorded such treatment. Remind him that, alimony would accompany the divorce. Let him see that his bachelor life would be a very costly pleasure, because he would be forced to give you most of his earnings to keep you and your children. Dear Miss Lee: I am 57 and know a eharming. educated girl of 21 who wants tv marry me. She knows my income is limited. I should appreciate your advice in your column in The Times. D. E. C. Dear D. E. C.: There are very few marriages that are successful when there is such a disparity between the ages of the husband and wife as in your case. Perhaps this girl really loves you. but rarely my dear man, does a girl that age fall in love with a man old enough to be her father. Your letter was brief and told me nothing of the character of this girl; hence my advice has had to be general. Another thing, you did not say you loved this girl and wanted her for your wife. It would be very foolish of you to marry her if you did not feel that you wanted her as well as her wanting you. All in all, a situation like this takes careful consideration. Look long and earnestly before you leap into marriage at your age, D. E. C., with a girl as young as the one of whom you write. Blondie: Some girls your age, 18, do prefer to have “dates” with young men several years older then they. However, it is not wise for you to go with the man of whom you speak. You had better make friends with young men who would make good husbands later on, because most girls, you know, want to marry whether they admit it or not.
New Collar A purple jersey sports outfit of long jersey jumper and pleated skirt has a fiat, round collar of cream that terminates in the back with a tie with monogrammed ends. Chicken Fat Save all chicken fat. It makes delicious cakes, is admirable for cooking fish and used as a foundation for white sauce, is unexcelled. Stuffed Apples Cut the center out of red apples, leaving the skin and a little meat, and fill with chopped ham and rice mixed with beaten egg. Bake until skin is soft to have a delectable dish. Baked Fish Line your baking dish with oiled paper, when baking fish. It can be lifted Out in perfect form and the paper comes off easily. Pink Linen A sleeveless tennis dress of pink linen has tucks in squares decorating its waist. It’s skirt is circular for contrast and a tailored belt with buckle joins them. Fancy Rolls Save some bread dough, when baking, for fancy rolls. Pinch off small pieces, roll into balls about the size of butter pats and bake three to a muffin hole. Three Quarters Both the tunic and the cape of a Lucerne (anew violet-blue) tweed ensemble feature the three-quarters length. This promises great vogue. If your dresser drawers stick, remove them, plane off the sides and bottom and rub with soap, tallow or paraffin.

BEAUTY HOW and WHY EYEBROW PENCILING IS A TRUE ART
BY ANN ALYSIS Let us consider the eyebrow that is either too thin or too light in color for beauty. The eye needs to be framed in lovely dark brows and lashes in order that its own sparkle and luster may be enhanced. So, if the eyebrows are scant, straggling or too light in color for emphasis, the eye seems cold and lacks expression. Fault in color is very easily corrected. The eyebrow pencil will do it quickly and effectively. These pencils may be bought in brown (brun) and black (nuit). Choose the one best suited to your general pigmentation, the lighter shade for fairer women. Apply the pencil lightly and smooth, with a small brush which may be bought for this purpose. The eyebrows may be greatly improved in appearance by proper grooming. A tiny bit of white vaseline brushed into them at night will nourish them and promote thengrowth. They may be trained into beauty cf line by brushing them from the top downwaid, and the bottom upward, forming a darker and heavier line in the middle. This gives the pencilled appearance so much admired.

Family Menus
BY SISTER MARY BREAKFAST—Orange juice, cereal, cream, crisp broiled bacon, raisin coffee cake, milk, coffee. LUNCHEON—-Mushroom and celery cream soup, toasted crackers, citrus fruit salad, filled cookies, milk, tea. DINNER —Sauerkraut and wieners with . dumplings, head lettuce with Russian dressing, apple tapioca pudding, rye bread, milk coffee. The mushroom and celery cream soup suggested in the luncheon menu is a delicious rich soup suitable for children as well as adults. The use of celery lessens the cost and makes the flavor more bland than if the soup were made entirely with mushrooms. Raisin coffee cake ' should be served for Sunday morning breakfast when the family are not in a hurry and have time to appreciate “something different.” Raisin Coffee Cake One-half cup butter, li cup sugar, 2U cups flour, 3 eggs, 2 teespoons baking powder.
