Jane Finds Young Wife Unreliable

Leaves Second Husband After Three Months Of Marriage.

Put your problems in a letter to Jane Jordan, who will answer your questions in this column each day.

EAR JANE JORDAN— About three months ago I married what I thought was the sweetest 17-year-old girl in the world. I am 21. She

had been married before to a man old enough to be her father.

She only lived with him three months and told me she never loved him but just married him for a home. I am beginning to think that’s all she married me for. About two weeks ago a man whoQ lived in the same apartment house employed my wife to take care of his four (children. His wife had been dead about a month, leaving a new baby. He offered my wife $7 a week and she took the job. I spent Sunday with my brother and came home about 8 o’clock to find that she had gone riding with this man and the children. I thought nothing of that but they went out the next night and again and again until one night she didn’t come home at all. I asked her why and she said that I had been stepping out and was tired of her and that she could never care for me again as she once did. I asked her if she loved this other man and she said she thought she could: learn to. She said she wanted a divorce. She thinks she is in love with this fellow because he has a fair job, a car, and because he has given her some nice clothes that belonged to his wife. | Do you think he will get tired of her or she of him? Should I ever take her back? I still love her dearly but I think I can get over it. What is the best thing to do for a broken heart? Can she be happy with a man twice her age who has \fgur children?

Contract Problem (Solution in next issue)

West is playing the contract at four hearts. North and South have won two diamond tricks, and South then returns the .spade two. If this is a singleton, as is probable, as’ South has bid both clubs and diamonds, can West still fulfill his contract with an even break in the trump suit?

DEPARTS FROM RULE

I know. |I couldn’# possibly predict what the outcome of her new venture will be. What | you should do in the event that she comes back to you, I do not know. Your good judgment should tell you that you can’t trust her. If a few new clothes and the chance to ride in a car each evening is sufficient to make her forget that she is married (and for the second time) I don’t think you can/expect much from her even if you give her another trial.

Solution to Previous Problem OLUMES have been written on the proper way to play certain card combinations. Students of the game have studied the odds, and nowadays among great players there is general agreement as to' princi-

Overaction of Thyroid Gland Relieved by. Iodine Treatment

‘By DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN

Editor, American Medical Journal Doctors have learned that overfunctioning of the thyroid gland can be controlled to a certain extent by giving small amounts of iodine. When iodine is given, the rate of the body chemistry is at once lessened.

The pulse,

which has previously. been rapid, becomes slower.

Some of

the other symptoms which are signs of overaction of the thyroid begin

to disappear. The iodine seems to help “the condition, but it certainly does not cure it. For that reason,.iodine is sometimes used in patients who seem to be. suffering with : excess action of the thyroid to help get them into a condition in which they are able to undergo suitable operation. "Operations on the thyroid gang

rr

are not particularly dangerous, provided the patient is in a good condition before the operation is’ performed. In most hospitals nowadays it ‘is customary to put the toxic goiter patient to bed, watch his symptoms constantly, measure - his basal metabolic rate every day or two until it becomes stabilized at a lower point.

Children in a crowd are more heartless than they are individually. It may be that each little girson Anne's street is very approachable herself, but fears to make a | concession that would be voted down by the rest. short, they are allowing the tight little charter of their club to interfere with personal expansion. I suggest that Anne should not try to crash the entire crowd, or stand around hoping for a stray word of welcome. It won’t come this way. To buy her way, socially, seems rather ignoble, but this is exactly the way it has to be done, usually. Not by display, or deliberate favors, but by finding a common interest with that one who is most approachable. It may be she has a dog like Jane’s, or that both have the same make of wheels. Perhaps Anne has a book by the same aughoey as Jane’s library book. Almost anything provides a common ground for interest. Anne may use this as a stepping stone for recognition. She needs suggestion and help. What she must not do is to make it too apparent that she is dying to break in. This is fatal. She might import one or two visitors so as to
