"Color Contrasts Enhance Window Box Effects

WINDOW BOXES are a universal form of gardening. For fiat dwellers, they may offer the only chance to grow outdoor plants. Even where the garden beds are large enough for planting on a comprehensive scale, the charm of the whole picture will be enhanced with tastefully planted window and porch boxes.

JANE JORDAN

DEAR JANE JORDN—I am 28 years of age. At 20 I married a boy from a nice family whom I had known since I was a child of eight. I believed I would have love, peace and security after our marriage although I never was sure of his love and we never agreed on anything. I believe that he married me because he felt sorry for me and knew I had qualities to make a good wife. He always has been restless and dissatisfied. We have three small children. Ali 1 he is a successful businessman he never wanted the responsibilities of a family and has never been interested in our home or shown any affection for me that was sincere. He has been selfish, unsocial and unfaithful. I feel that I have failed as hit wife and have applied for a divorce. He agrees that we should part but does not want a divorce. I would rather put him out of my life and build a future for my children as they never have had a happy home. I am not interested in remarriage. He will not admit that he does not love me. He does not drink or smoke but will read stacks of immoral literature

and sees movies of the same type. It seems I have spent most of my life trying to figure him out. Can vou? Can you tell me what is wrong with him or me? Why has he always tried to make everyone think I am at fauit? Am 1 doing the best for us all in divorcing him? I don’t think there is

Answer—I am not wise enough to know whether you are doing right or wrong in seeking a divorce from your husband. : Children glways are a powerful argument against divorce. Sometimes it is the lesser of two evils but it never is a panacea. Many & woman has found that struggling along with her children alone was worse than living with an unsatisfactory husband. Therefore I think that your husband’s idea of separation without % divorce might be worth a trial. The fact that he will not admit ! he does not love you suggests that he may have some wish to coopera¥ with you in preserving ycur home. I do not know enough about your husband to help you figure iim out. The fact that he does not smoke or drink but shows a reference for immoral literature indicates that he has a personal ode of morals which he finds it difficult to enforce. When a person as a high ego ideal which is out of keeping with his deepest desires, t sets up a conflict which makes him difficult to live with. 5 Usually an unsocial person is a hostile person who is afraid of © others. He does not believe that anyone cares for him. All this . goes back into his childhood and is based on his early attitudes toi ward his parents and his brothers and sisters, if any. If you really want to figure him out you will have to find out what he was like as a child. Was he sure of the love of his parents or did he feel rejected by one or both of them? Perhaps you can help the man after all by maintaining a sympathetic attitude toward his problems. Many times we are so intent upon getting love for ourselves that we forget to give it. JANE JORDAN.

Tailor Your Drapes

Ill-fitting window draperies give a cluttered, sloppy effect to .any room. All ' draperies should be well tailored, particularly lined curtains. It's best, too, to have lined curtains dry-cleaned, since shrinkage of the drapery material and the lining rarely would be exactly the same. Washing would therefore result in a crooked, ille fitting curtain.

.. How Health Protection with

N THE PAST when flickering flame lamps were causEe harm to countless eyes, flame-type cooking also was causing loss in the natural nutrition content of food. Then came Electricity to protect vitamins as well as vision. With Electric cooking, only a small quantity of water is needed . . . essential vitamins and minerals are not “boiled out™ and lost. Stirring that further destroys nutritive elements and makes foods soggy and unattractive is no longer necessary. In a flameless Electric oven there's no parched air to dry out food. Meats and vegetables cook in their natural juices and retain full flavor and goodness. Food that is cooked Electrically looks better, tastes better and is better for you. Now that you've made the switch to Electric lights to protect your family’s eyes, switch to an Electric range and protect their health. And you'll also gain a cleaner, cooler, more convenient kitchen and more leisure time for things you want to do—all at a daily cost of only pennies.
