JANE JORDAN—
* DEAR JANE JORDAN—I am 30, married to a man of 36 for two
years. I didn’t love him and told him so at the time I married him .
but he said he'd take the chance. Since he seemed all right and was kind, I married him. I have tried to love him but just can’t, al-
_ though I like him very much.
Five months ago I met a young man five years younger than I am and something clicked. A week or so later I saw him again and he said he, too, had felt something. Since then we have seen each other once or twice a week, no shameful affair, I assure you, just friendly little meetings. For the last week or two 'l seem only to live for the time when I can see him again. - He comes of a good . family, has a good position, has been married but is now divorced. He loves me, I am sure, but so does my husband and that’s the rub. I don’t want to hurt him yet I know I' can’t go on without his
“» getting wise.
Neither can these meetings go on in this mild way; it is getting serious and I am afraid. What should I do, just let things work
~ themselves out or try to break off?

MICKEY E. .
Answer—Perhaps, at 30, you wouldnt find a young man of 25 so exciting if it were not for the fact that you are married to an older man for whom you have a daughterly affection. Of course a man . of 36 is not old enough to be your father; nevertheless, it seems
to me that you regard him as such.
That is to say that you mar-
ried for a home, for masculine support and protection instead of
romantic love.
I wonder what your own father was like. I wonder if he was
unwise enough to prevent you fram having your fling with the boys; -
if he was kind but strict and you were forced to slip out for secret meetings wifh forbidden boys. In other words I wonder if you aren't repeating some youthful indiscretion which gave you a great thrill. I'm only guessing, of course, but the explanation for your present conduct lies in the past rather than any compelling attraction possessed by the young man you are meeting. 1 imagine that your youth was in some way deprived; that you didn’t have your fill of falling in and out of love, of forsaking one boy for another, of changing your mind and having a thoroughly ~ irresponsible good time. Yecur choice of a younger man, your pleasure in hugging a secret makes me think so. Well, you can't turn back the clock. You aren’t a fancy free young lady in your father’s home. You are 30 years old and married to a kindly and responsible husband who loves you and whom you took of your own free will and accord, knowing full well that you weren't madly in love. Now you're having a tardy fling at flirting with young men, and there is a price attached.
Many women have felt that their gains, if any, under similar
_ circumstances, were not worth what they paid. They did not enjoy the exchange of security for insecurity as much as they expected. There may be exceptions to this rule. You will have to face the
facts and decide.

BEAUTY
By ALICIA HART
SHE KNOWS THAT A great deal of makeup is not appropriate for active sports, of course, but the beauty-minded winter sportswoman remembers that using cosmetics too sparingly on cold, blustery days is pretty bad for her skin. - In other words, she makes sure that her makeup for skiing and skating is applied lightly to give her skin a natural, fresh look, but
at the same time is heavy enough against winter winds. ! Before getting
to provide a little protection
into her skating togs, she cleanses her face and
throat with cream. Then, if her skin is quite dry, applies a layer of night cream, pats it in for a few seconds, and removes it with
soft tissues. Cream rouge goes on next, then powder.
She presses
quantities of the latter into the dewy film that remains after removal, but not washing away of the cream, and lets it set before brushing off the excess with a powder brush or a piece of clean,
' fluffy cotton. » » 2
2 ® »
‘SHE DRIES HER LIPS, puts on lipstick and, remembering not to moisten her lips, gives the color at least five minutes to set before blotting with cleansing tissue. Tg prevent chapping, she often puts
a second layer of lipstick over the first.
Sometimes she uses a
colorless pomade instead of lipstick for the second layer. She wouldn’t dream of wearing eye makeup with sports clothes. But she does find that a fine film of plain white vaseline gives her eyelids a dewy look and protects them from icy blasts. In addition, she uses hand lotion immediately before going out.
As soon as she gets back from the
skating jaunt, she washes her
hands in lukewarm (not hot) water, massages cream into them, washes them again and applies hand lotion once more.

"FOOD
By Mrs. Gaynor Maddox
ROAST PORK should be well done, rich and juicy to the center, with a tender, crisp, brown crust. Thorough cooking is necessary for * pest flavor. It is also necessary to . destroy the trichinae, a parasite occasionally found in fresh pork. _ If you use a meat thermometer in roasting, the pork roast will be-done when it reaches 180 to 185 degrees F. For cooking without a meat thermometer, allow 25 to 30 minutes a pound in moderate oven. Long, narrow loin roasts will be well done at the center more quickly than thick _ butts. Boned roasts require more time than those with bones left in them. Use a constant moderate temperature (350 degrees F.). Slow cooking at even heat produces best results. Place roast fat side up in roasting pan and it will do its own basting. Do NOT add water. Do NOT cover.
# » »
SHOULDER AND BUTT ROASTS give most meat for the money. Loins and fresh hams, however, have finer . grain and better flavor. Fresh hams, odd as it seems, cook more quickly if rind is left on. Fresh hams, as well as shoulders, slice better if boned. Stuff these roasts in space left by bones. Crack the bones in
roast loin and it will carve more
easily. Are you a pork chop fancier? Then read on. Have the chops cut 12 inches thick and make the stuffing #pocket” by slicing through the center of the bone, so the stuffing .* comes sandwiched in between two layers of “chop.” Season, flour and brown the chops on all sides before inserting stuffing. Por the stuffing, 1 cup of dry bread . crumbs will make enough for six chops. Season to taste with chopped celery, onion, parsley, savory herbs and a little celery seed, salt and pepper. This dish should be baked well-covered and slowly until the pork is thoroughly done, about 45 to 60 minutes. » » 2
IN PORK SAUSAGE, links or patties, ge have delicious pork flavor “in small, handy packages. The label “pure pork” means that no other meat has been added. Cook all sausages partly covered to help give them the slow, thorough cooking that pork requires. When preparing link sausages, first prick with a fork to prevent bursting. For small links, place in a moderately hot skillet and immediately sprinkle with a tablespoon or so of water to prevent browning beforé¢ the sausages are heated through. Turn them freguently and let them brown slowly. Large links are sometimes first simmered in a little water, and as it evaporates, the sausage awjuires that desirable, { rich brown color.
