DEAR JANE JORDAN — I am 8 young mother of 22, married three and a half years, and I have two children. Just last summer I suspected my husband of ‘seeing a lot of my 16-year-old sister, I have talked to her but she doesn’t seem to care. I have had it out with my husband and he doesn’t deny it. He says he loves her and she will never want for anything as long as he lives. I have thought of going to the Juvenile court about her but it would only bring my mother into it. She is a widow with three small children at home to work for. My - sister lives at home also. Mother has tried to show her what she is doing to her sister and children but it does no good. Recently my husband confessed to my mother that he had been go-. ing with my sister for a year and she never was so shocked in all her life. She told my husband to leave ‘her daughter alone and go back to his wife and children and not to come to-her home again without mé Then he came home mad at me. . I said that was the last straw and I left him. He lives at his mother’s and gives me so much a week for the children. His mother does not approve of his doings but cannot put him out. Do you think in.time he will forget my sister and come back to me and the children? .

hands and a good household soap. Very sheer cottons, such as organdie, dotted swiss, batiste, lace, voile, etc, are more safely washed by hand. Glazed chintz, if its finish is permanent, will retain its glaze after many trips to the tub. When dimity, lawn, muslin, organdie and

nent finish they require no starch. Pique, gingham, chambray, percale, broadcloth and’'other medium weight fabrics look brighter and stay fresh longer when they are starched. It’s a good idea to tint the starch with bluing for dark blues, packaged tints for other hues, since white starch shows on dark shades. Cottons should be hung outdoors to dry whenever possible. Drying in the sun and air gives them that fresh, clean ‘smell that everyone loves in cottons. Better hang colored fabrics in the shade, though, even when they're sunfast. ” EJ o

Pin a string to each sleeve and attach it with a clothespin to the line on either side of the garment to avoid sleeve and shoulder wrinkles. If you want a more finished appearance you can iron all woven crinkles while damp, but other crinkles should be pressed dry with a not-to-hot iron. Other cottons should be dampened thoroughly before ironing. Press with the thread of the goods, on the right side, for a glazed taffeta look. Iron on the wrong side to

Smart home decorators are using circular, floor-length covers to transform ugly duckling tables into gay items of real beauty.. The small round table shown here, covered with flowered chintz to match the draperies, has a felt top to which the chintz is fastened. Even an amateur seamstress can cover tables in this manner.

For Economy

and your sister are in love at all. Their miserable little affair affords them several secret satisfactions which they mistake for love. Your sister, obviously, is jealous of you. This is no new situation at all but something which began back in your childhood. She suspects that your mother prefers you to her. You got to do everything first. You married first and had c ren first. Now her deepest dere is to take something away frm you which you value, attracting your husband she gets even with you and her mother with a single blow. As usual the two of you side together against her. The fact that you are right only makes her feel more guilty and - increases her determination to bring grief on both your heads. The basis of your sister's ugly behavior lies in the fact that she feels * “unloved. You cannot be expected to love your sister under the circumstances 'but you can let her strictly alone. Your mother has put her disapproval on record and can do no more. If she has any affection for your sister at all it may soften the girl if che shows it. I do not know the nature of your husband’s complaints against you, but he, too, is motivated more by - revenge than by love. An affair which owes its existence to such questionable motives has a slim chance to endure. In other words, they hate something together instead of loving something together. If you lessen the hate you weaken the tie that binds them. JANE JORDAN.

Air Raid Styles)

Manufacturers of cotton knitted underwear are introducing pajama 4 styles for air raid emergency wear. They feature tightly cuffed trouser legs which permit their use as underwear under slacks in case of an air raid.

Asparagus Tips Try rolling several spears of cooked asparagus in slices of enriched bread and broil until luscious brown. Serve ‘with crisp: bacon strips and stuffed olives some Sunday evening.

Knitted cottons are easy to wash and even easier to iron. To get rid of excess water, roll in a towel instead of putting through the wringer. over the line along the length of the garment to dry. Do not hang knitted cottons from the line with clothespins since: this will stretch them out of shape. When the garment is still damp, you can press it lightly to get rid of any wrinkles that remain. Wash slacks as you would other heavy or medium-weight cottons after making sure pockets are empty. Hang them up by the bottoms of the trouser legs. Then most cotton slacks can be run through the ironing machine or pressed dry by hand without much effort. . o un td

Purchase wisely what you have to buy. Take care wisely of what you now have. These are two pretty important rules in present wartime economy. And if you are not certain about the quality of the product you are buying, look for reliably labeled products. Many manufacturers are co-op= erating with the government to prevent careless buying and thoughtless waste by tagging their products informatively—that is, by printing on their labels the exact quality of the product, what may be

Siperien of it, and how to take care of it. For instance, a label on a piece of fabric may indicate the weight of the material, just how colorfast the dyes are, whether it is preshrunk and just how to launder it, if possible. :

HE THOUSANDS of “behind-the-line fighters” who cook: Electrically in Indianapolis are happy in knowing that their Electric ranges are ruggedly constructed to serve them throughout the war and for years to come. However, remember everyone must guard against carelessness and abuse of Electric appliances to prevent repairs and replacement of parts, and to conserve manpower, rubber and time in making

Remember, too, that Electric cooking does its part by re. taining more of the vital vitamins and minerals in food, and will help protect health, prevent food waste, conserve time 2 and physical energy. Here are tips for you to follow: - ve

Put entire meal in oven and cook all at one time—it saves-Elec-tricity and time. Meals cooked in the deep well cooker are also simple to prepare and thrifty, too.

Wash outside of range, when cool, with warm soapy water. Wipe oven with damp cloth, scouring charred spots with steel wool.

Avoid letting spilled food dry or harden on range. Cooking units burn themselves clean. but drip pans should be removed for cleaning before wiring becomes damaged.

Electyic COOKING RETAINS VITAL VITAMINS

Recent tests show that with Electric cooking 91 per cent of the vitamins can be retained. Here’s how you, too, can do it. Use little or no water to prevent loss of water-soluble vitamins and minerals. . . . Start fast and cook quickly to protect vitamins and minerals by reducing time they’re exposed to heat, liquid and air. . . . Avoid violent boiling —which destroys vitamins—with correct heat. Cover utensils and don’t stir. Air destroys certain vitamins and accurate heat control prevents scorching.
