You'll find “IRRADIATED” on Wilson's label
® It’s mighty easy to be “penny-wise and pound foolish” buying milk that doesn’t have increased “sunshine” Vitamin D. Wilson's is irradiated by ultraviolet rays to increase the Vitamin D content way over that of plain milk. Wilson's gives you this extra value. Almost everybody needs this essential vitamin—especially children and babies to insure proper forming of tooth and bone structure. Look for “irradiated” on Wilson's label. Wilson's is whole milk with all the cream left in—minus water evaporated away. It’s double rich—homogenized— digests quickly. Insist on Wilson's Irradiated —Evaporated Milk.

JANE JORDAN
DEAR JANE JORDAN-—I am a woman 24 years old. I have four children and am expecting another. I have been married eight years and have had continuous trouble. My husband drinks excessively but only on week-ends. We are living with his mother and stepfather. His mother upholds him in every respect. I do everything in my power to get along with him as I love him dearly.
‘He doesn’t permit me to go anywhere with any of my girl friends
at any time. He goes by himself and comes home drunk. Then he tells me how much he loves his first fiancee. I am awfully jealous of him and sometimes I throw her up to him. He is mean to me and even has struck me, He has a good job but I do not know what his salary is as he doesn’t see fit to tell me. He won't take the responsibility of paying the bills or seeing that we keep a home together. He is satisfied to be living with his people and tells me if I am not satisfied that I can get out. My mother is dead and my father has no home to take me to. Do you think my husband loves me? What would you do if you were in my place? BETTY. = “ = » » » ANSWER~—-Your biggest mistake was made when you consented to live with your husband’s people in the first place. Every young wife has a right to a home of her own. The time to arrive at an understanding on this point is while the girl is still engaged and her fiance's desire to please her is at its height. Once she is established in the home of her in-laws, it is harder {o break the intantile ties that hold a man to his mother, I do not know what you can do to induce your husband to establish a home for you now. You will have to do everything in your power to make it sound attractive to him. Sell him on the idea that it will make a different person of you, that the children will be happier, and that he will enjoy the prestige of being head of his own house. You have a nice job of persuasion ahead of you for you can not force him to move. It would be a help if you could get his mother to back you up. She may not want to give up her son but after all four children and one to come must put a heavy burden on her which she should be glad to shed. It is hard to believe that a stepfather could be altogether happy about such a set-up. I should think you cculd safely ignore your husband's references to his former sweetheart. His remarks are made to hurt you and not because he actually means what he says. The girl is no threat to you now. Your five children will make your husband less desirable to her, even if she is still interested, which I doubt. He married you, not her, and this action speaks louder than his words. Put up a firm, steady campaign for a home of your own. Avoid nasty quarrels for they accomplish nothing. Do the best you can with the difficult conditions of your life. There is no point in making threats which you cannot carry out. Your hands are pretty well tied hy your children. JANE JORDAN.
