However, be sure to check this when you get your yardage. You can’t take such things for granted any more. Advice from the buyer is that you'd better do your picking now if you want the deep toned fabrics. Later on stocks will run to the pale tones, with less elaborate patterns. Another point he makes is that you'll be wise to have your slipcovers dry cleaned. The fabric houses use the best dyes available, but nobody likes to guarantee “washable” these days.

before we were married and told me he always would. He said that if he ever found her again hé would not give her up the second time. Two years ago he found Nor” I thought she was not so much and he would quit seeing her but I have found out that she is a very nice woman, and that she never has quit loving him. She has told him to do whatever he wants to. If he is happier with me she told him to stay and if not, to leave. He wants her. He told me I could have the money in the bank and the house if I would give him a divorce. I want him. Should I give him the divorce or not? ~~ MYRTLE. ” ” ” Answer—What sort of fairy story is this? If your husband and the girl were so much in love why didn’t they m_rry 17 years ago, before your husband had accepted other serious responsibilities? No matter how “nice” the other woman may be it is still very unethical of her to see your husband after all these years and upset him with a dead love. affair. After all he lived without her for 17 years and can live without her 17 years more if she would let go and face her

facts.

It is very naive of these people to believe that they can turn back the clock and start over where they left off so long ago regardless of intervening experiences. There was something wrong with their relationship in the first place or they would not have parted. Given time they may discover that they aren't in love at all but are idealizing something which doesn’t exist. Every woman has a right to fight for her home and husband but in

subtle weapons. If you flatly refuse to give up, perhaps your refusal only would make the romantic pair feel nice and tragic, thereby increasing their determination to have each other at any cost. For your sake it is important that you break your emotional dependence upon your husband by substituting as many new interests as possible. It isn’t casy, but it can be done.
