Eczema in Water Blisters Burned Terribly. Cuticura Healed. “My little boy had eczema. The trouble first started on his left arm. It was in little patches of pimples and water blisters and itched and burned terribly. He scratched until the eruptions would bleed and they looked badly. Later the trouble spread to his body, the top of his left ear and up through his hair. His clothing aggravated the breaking out on his body, especially when he got warm. “ I sent for free samples of Cuticura Soap and Ointment. I purchased more and in about a month he was healed.” (Signed) Mrs. Earl Wells, 1438 S. Lawrence St, Wichita, Kans., Aug. 6,1931. Soap 25c. Ointment 25 and 56c. Talcum 25c. Sold everywhere.

v BY ELIZABETH CLARK THE new porch furniture that has come loping into town of late will not add to the peace of mind of the woman who has decided that the old stuff is plentygood enough, “for such things never change.” They have changed radically in three ways worth talking about—comfort, handability, and color. Someone deserves a medal on the first score, for now it is possible to plump down on a porch ,chair without getting squiggles in one's spine. Those grand-looking, but often deceiving, lounge chairs of stick willow, wicker or what you will, have been taken in hand and given waterproof cushions every bit as comfortable as those of one’s favorite armchair. They are hair and down filled, as detailed as if they were meant for indoors, and the seats are equipped with an extra spring unit. 8 U tt GLIDERS, which used to swing every which way to an accompaniment of squeaks, are now disciplined by coiled springs, stabilizers and some mechanical dingus

that is supposed to reduce them to silence. Withal, they are comfortable enough to sleep on when the weather makes bedrooms too stuffy to be endured. Commendable things have happened even to the good old garden or roof standby, the Deauville um-brella-table and chair sets which were until now something to make the most determined martyr fidgety. The backs of the chairs are no longer straight up and down, but curve backward at an inviting angle, and the seats are strips of metal that have in some way been given the resiliency of cushions. On the score of handability, which, interpreted, means easy to move about, there are the lightweight metal tables and chairs that look sturdy and are very light. Better yet, the things fold up in amazing ways, arms, backs, tops,

Metal painted white is especially grand and new looking and it has been conditioned to fickle weather. Stick a couple of chairs of the collapsible type with seats and backs of stretched canvas in vivid blue, red or green into the out-door picture and you have something /> arrest the most jaded eye.

fMANNtItf‘°AAOIIALS] ffx By Jan£ JokdAn yp,
TF you're alone and far from -*■ friends, write your troubles to Jane Jordan, who will help you find your way out of your difficulties. Dear Jane Jordan—l need help and need it right away. I married rather voung and always have been crazv about niv husband. We've been an ideal coutile, so our friends think. I have a baby now and am expecting another soon. For the last two months mv husband has been going out about two or three times a week. He savs he has been out with the gang, riding around and drinking. A few nights ago he was out until 2 o'clock and came In so Intoxicated he hardlv could stand. He made light nf everything I said and finally turned and walked out and didn't come home until next morning. He confessed that he had been out with a girl and intends to see her again. He savs he doesn't love her. but is lust kidding her along. Here Is what I have planned to do. After mv babv is born. I will have it adopted take mv litle girl and leave for mv home, which is more than a thousand miles awav. I can't go to mv parents, because I married against their will and thev never have forgiven me. Mv husband laughs at me for telling him I intend to leave. I never have worked and mv education is far from finished. I married when I was a junior in high school. I'm fust out of mv 'teens now. I've suffered terribly. Do vou think I'm acting wisely or foolishly? DESPERATE. Dear Desperate—You are acting foolishly. No mother can give hes baby away and be happy. You are half mad with pain, suffering, and desperation. When it comes to the actual doing of what you propose, I doubt if you could bring yourself to it. I know how you feel, however. Anything seems better than going on as you are by the side of a man whose conduct humiliates you and whose loyalty has failed at the momont when you need it most. It would not be surprising if you made a few mistakes. You are caught in a situation from which there is no immediate escape. You can’t turn a wheel until this baby is born and for some time afterwards. You have no weapon to use except your own head, and I M a£rtr j nir T s am going to show you how to use it Error on to the best advan- y p art tage. Your trouble has turned you into a nagging wife, and no wonder! But nagging is a fatal error. You could offer your husband no greater encouragement to pursue his present course than to nag him. Much as he deserves every word you can say, your cue is to say nothing except the pleasantest things. Your husband sounds like a very spoiled boy, who married for fun and found that it wasn’t any fun, after all. His playmate quickly turned into the mother of children and he lost his place as her sole baby. He hardly knows what has happened except that home isn’t the playground it used to be. Marriage is a chore instead of a pastime. He's bored wdth the whole business and determined to stir up a little excitement. As soon as he You Make -ebelled again s t u- his bonds, his wife Him feel dissolved into Wretched tears and raised cai n , which strengthened his conviction that marriage wasn’t all it was cracked up to be. He knows that he is behaving badly, but would die before he admitted it. It’s peculiar hunan tendenecy to dislike the person whom you have wronged. Every time he looks at you, your figure condemns him. Your tears and your agony reproach him. It no longer makes him feel happy to be with you. It makes him feel wretched. So he takes the

easiest course and avoids coming home. There’s just a chance that you can save the situation by making a superhuman effort to restore the pleasant '■onditions which formerly made you seem like an ideal couple to your friends. Os course you are nandi c a p p e and by your condition and It’s Sign by your righteous You’ve Hurt resentment. uu e xluri Things never can His Pride be what they were before, but they can improve vastly if you have the requisite strength of character. Just as an experiment, try behaving as though you were his mother instead of his wife. Forget yourself. Urge him to go out and enjoy himself. When he comes home drunk, put him to bed and nurse him. Meet him with smiles instead of tears. Try to be the girl he fell in love with, in spite of the fact that he is not the boy you fell in love with The chances are that he is telling you the absolute truth when he says he only is kidding this new girl along. When a husband admits his infidelity to his wife, it’s a pretty sure sign that she has hurt his pride terrifically somewhere along the line and he takes this method to restore his prestige. Slim Hope, it is as if he Though It said. “You see, you have no power May Work over me at all. And notice, please, that other women fall for me!” You can’t get anywhere by making a bid for sympathy. You deserve it, but you won’t get it. I wonder what would happen if you started to understand him and sympathize with him instead. I admit that this is a slim hope to hold out, but I’ve seen it work! He's on tension now, like a bad small boy who can't give in. no matter howmuch he wishes he could. Without d6ubt you are the injured party, and therefore it should be easier for you to give in, for you have nothing to justify. It is a shame that you have to face such a frightful problem so far away from home. It is harder still to admit that your parents were right and you were wrong. It leaves you rather straded in a pretty harsh world, with no escape. In spite of everything, I doubt if they will desert you if worst comes to worst.
Women’s Clubs Likely to Shun Dry Resolution By United Presn SEATTLE, June 9.—Prohibition may play but a minor part in the convention of the general Federation of Women’s Clubs, it was indicated today. Mrs. John F. Sippel, Washington, president, said it was probable no resolution concerning prohibition will reach the floor this year. She said she is a dry, but favors a referendum and more liberal planks in both party platforms. There was some speculation that a move for a resubmission resolution would be formulated. Formal opening of the convention here tonight was the cause of much preparation today as 2,000 delegates arrived for the ten-day meeting.
