Put your problems in a letter to Jane Jordan who will help you with them by her answers in this column.

EAR JANE JORDAN-—I am 17 and have gone steady with a boy of 19 for about two years. I have had a stormy romance due to his dominating disposition. I have many friends to whom he objects because he has but one friend | at a time and expects me to be the same. His main objection is to a cousin of mine. She doesn't keep | steady company and he has jealous | ideas about our companionship. I| was raised in my cousin's home and | have been there practically all my | life. My boy friend and I have split up several times over this matter but he always came back. The last] time we were split up his mother | stopped me and extracted a promise | from me to give my cousin up or | her son up. Naturally I gave up| the cousin but it didn't last and I | broke my promise. I don't helieve it is just my cousin that causes my | friend's mother’s dislike of me. | Since I broke my promise he has |

me up. i

On our last date he made a flimsy | excuse not to go with me because he was saving his earnings to buy a car. His mother said the same | thing to me about his saving money.

He even proposed to me but I was|

undecided as to what to say with | :

to the boy, she also feels inferior because she was not the one who was chosen. In various ways, unrecognized by her girl friend, she tries to break up the new friendship. The boy, however, is not so blind. If this is true of your cousin the boy may feel her concealed hos-

into words.

Why his mother should interfere I don’t know except that she sees a chance to incite you against her son by reinforcing his demands that you do something distasteful to you. The less you see of her the better, for unless I am wrong she is no friend of yours.

Since you are only 17 you need | not take all this so seriously. It would be folly to consider marriage at your age, particularly where you have to compete with a meddling mother for her son's affection. The experience, however, is valuable. Learn all you can from it. Instead of squabbling with your boy friend encourage him to explain himself in place of simply issuing ! unreasonable orders. JANE JORDAN,

EAR JANE JORDAN—We are two girls of 15. About four months ago we met two boys. We | have spoken only a few words to | them and see them but once a week. | They act as if they like us a lot! but are afraid to ask us for dates. Would it be proper for us to ask them to our house, or should we let them ask us for a date first? We're afraid they won't ask us. BET AND ROSIE.

ANSWER—If you can put your invitation casually without showing your eagerness that they will come or your fear that they won't come, youre on safe ground. Bays like to make their own dates, but if they're inexperienced they like some indication that the girls really want them. Usually a cordial attitude when you're in their company is encouragement enough. JANE JORDAN,

Next Winter Plants Require Care Now

The success of next winter's window garden depends to a large extent on what is done with the plants now, as any specimen that is to be forced or grown under unnatural conditions must be carefully prepared Or the extra tax placed upon it. Old plants kept from year to year which flower in the winter have been resting, and unless they are repotted in the spring, should be shifted now into a pot just one size larger. During hot weather they thrive better if the pots are sunk up to their rims in the ground under shrub or tree, where they will be in the shade at mid-day. To prevent investigating roots from worksing out in the soil, cover the drainage hole with surgeon’s plaster, leaving just enough of an opening so that all surplus water can drain out, and turn the pots around occasionally to prevent one-sided

Several readers want a recipe for stuffed tomatoes that is different.

How's this:

Three firm tomatoes,

Chop mushrooms, bacon, parsley® very fine. Mix with onion. Cut tomatoes in half. Remove most of the pulp. Fill pocket with mushroom mixture. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Dust with grated cheese. Broil under hot flame for about 10 | minutes. Serve with broiled steak. Ham loaf seems to be another unknown quantity in some Kkitciens. So here's a way out of that lack:

Veal and Ham Loaf (4 to 6 servings)

Wife’s Tasks

Caring for Children. and Home Is Termed Full-Time Job.

By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON Father, dear father, come home

you live. Naturally you eat and sleep here, coming home from the office to find the beds made and the dinner ready, but what do you know of the vicissitudes of housekeeping and child raising? It is not your job, no, but if you think that you have all the trouble of raising the rubles to pay bills, and that your little wife has nothing to do, let's have a candid camera with us and get a few shots behind the scenes. There is the baby, for instance. To keep a baby alive is a job by itself. To keep him well and clean is 10 ordinary jobs. Bottles to be cleansed thoroughly and boiled, and then filled with the day’s formula made as carefully as a druggist weighs out grains and drams behind his pharmacy partition. Didies to be washed and boiled, aired and ironed

that must never run out. Bed pads and sheets to be washed regularly, too. and this almost always means daily. I have not yet begun to tell all there is to be done in the matter of steering a little family safely through each day, because this only mentions the baby. Add to the small subject, one or two other young retainers and you have quite a job on your hands. But, of course, you know this and do not come home expecting chicken patties and angel cake for supper. Fortunately the years are kind and once past babyhood and early child-

| hood, things settle into more work-

able grooves But responsibility never ceases, and the changing demands are ever there to be met.

Solution to Previous Problem By WILLIAM E. M'KENNEY

American Bridge League Secretary HERE is one fundamental rule covering sound use of the double for penalties. Never double if the information you give will help the declarer to place cards, and thus make a contract that otherwise might easily be defeated. It was by utilizing information thus unwisely given that Mrs. Clementine Van Slochem of New York, who will be one of the contestants in the women's national pair championship at Asbury Park, N. J., the week of Aug. 2, was able to make her game contract, which others without this aid had found impossible. When Mrs. Van Slochem, sitting South, saw her dummy, it was clear to her that she had to limit her losses in trumps to one trick, if the contract was to be made, unless the unlikely happened and the heart finesse proved successful. She prepared the hand with that end in view. The first trick was won with the ace, and a small spade was

was laid down and a second dia-

mond was ruffed in dummy. The last spade was ruffed and the heart queen lost to East's king. East returned a heart, which was won in dummy, and then Mrs. Van Slochem continued to lead hearts, discarding diamonds.

On the fifth heart lead, East had to ruff, but South calmly dropped her last diamond. East then had to lead a trump, giving South a fiulfilled doubled contract. (Copyright, 1937, NEA Service, Inc.)

‘Pill Cures’

Prove Risk For Kidney

Drugs to Increase Flow Of Fluid May Do Organs Harm.

By DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor, American Medical Journal

A recent circular from a patent medicine house advertised 50 differe ent kidney tablets, 51 kidney reme= dies, 127 kidney pills and various kidney tonics, bitters, cordial, capsules, drops, medicines and treate ments and herb teas. Usually, the thought of kidney trouble brings a picture of a man leaning over with the hand in the middle of his back where the kide neys are often thought to be placed. Usually the average person guesses all wrong when he puts his hand over the region where he thinks his kidneys are. A pain in the back is much more likely to be associated with the posture of the individual than to mean something wrong with his kidneys.

Some Are Dangerous

Furthermore, quacks usually claim their treatments will cure both diabetes and inflammation of the kid neys. Most kidney pills include some mild laxative or harmless herb. The whole purpose in these pills is to cause, if possible, an increased flow of fluid from the kidney. Such pills are worth less than nothing in treating diseases of the kidney. In fact, they are danger= ous, because the person who ate tempts to cure himself with such pills loses valuable medical atten= tion, including an acurate diagnosis of what is wrong. . An increased flow of fluid from the kidneys does not necessarily mean an increased elimination of waste material. In facet, the kidney pill may contain an irritating substance which, although it increases the elimination of fluid, may actually cause great damage to the kidney tissue. Every inflammation of the ‘kid ney is a potential hazard to life. As has already been pointed out in the discussion of uremia, suppres= sion of the elimination of waste ma«terials from the body may result in death in short order. Drowsiness, convlusions, itching of the skin, headache, cramps or twitching of the muscles may be the first symptoms and should always be taken as a warning sign of the necessity for careful study of the patient. It is much better to provide a sam ple of the urine for examination by the doctor than to take some kidney pills with the hope that the symptoms will disappear. In severe case only a few days may elapse between the appearance of the first symptoms and the onset of a condition leading to possible death.

Leather Fills New Decorative Uses

Today's decorative use of leather with new fabrics and woods offers endless possibilities in interior decoration. There are many new kidfinished upholstery leathers smooth and fine as satin, and others as ine teresting as modern textured fabe rics. There are patent leathers, tortoise shell finished leathers (popular with georgians and enjoying a new vogue today), and crackled leathers as ap= propriate for the modern as for the traditional room. Appliqued designs, saddle stitching, embossed and tooled decorations in color inspire new uses of leather for any decorator, The leather fabric manufacturers have perfected their processes, and now make them as soft and flex~ ible as real leather, and they are sturdy and washable, as well,
