Loyalty To Crippled Mate

Ollie Should Stand By Malniod llushnd Despite Poverty and Hardship

i

DEAR. BESS DIX: My sister-in-law and I have had a discussion on a matter upon which we cannot agree. She claims that when a man comes home from the war maimed. it is the duty of his wife to support and take care of him for the balance of his life, and that if ‘he really loves him she will do this.

1 claim that if a. husband really loves his wife. he will not want her to ruin her life by spending the balance of it caring for a hopeless cripple, and that knowing he will no longer be able to support her, he will show his true love for her by giving her up. What is your opinion?

lN-LAWS.

A . Your sieter-ip-iaw is right. Any wife who could turn her back on her husband who has been maimed fighting for his country and to keep women safe iii their hcmes, must not only have a heart that is as hard as stone. but she must be utterly lacking in patriotism and all sense of duty and moral responsibility.

BRE AKS VOWS

She breaks her marriage vows because she swore at the altar, be- fore God and mau. that she took her husband for better or worse, through sickness or health. and she is a despzcable quitter if she casts him aside for no other reason than that he is unable to work and sup- port her.

No wife who really loved her husband would forsake him in his hour of misfortune. 1f she had anything noble and generous in her nature. it would call out all the tenderness and pity in her, and the more he had need of hcr love and help, the more she would give him.

Many thousands of men have come home from the war so maimed that they will never be able to be great money-makers. Let us hope that few of them have wives so sordid that they will desert them be- cause they are no longer able to support them in the style to which they have been accustomed.

DEAR DOROTHY DIX: Do you believe it possible for a woman to love a man and yet hate everything he stands for? I love a married man to such a point that I can hardly stand to be away from him. and I am planning to marry him as soon as his divorce comes through. But ap- patently he possesses no scruples. nor of fine principles of character, and I detest the work he is in.

Do you think what I feel for him is love, or infatuation?

P. D. B.

ANSWER: Physical infatuation. I should say. Also, I should warn you that it won't last. Marriage will soon cure it and then you will wonder what made you do it.

No love lasts that isn't founded on respect. It is vital to a wife to be able to admire her husband. to look up to him. and. when she is ashamed of him and sees him doing mean, underhanded things that revolt her, she comes to have a contempt for him that kills her affec- ttion.

DEAR MISS DIX: We cannot have any children and I want to adopt a little baby girl. My husband works at night and sleeps all day and I am so lonesome. Don't you think he should let me adopt the little girl I want so badly?

A Wm"!

'work. After we let the horses out,

ANSWER: If your happiness depends upon it, I think he should. and the chances are that he will get as much pleasure out of the adopt- ed child as you will. Most foster parents seem almost foolishly fond of the children they adopt and get great joy out of them.

Ellen '3 Diary

l! en Island Farmer's Wife

I returned lest evening from a pleasant week-end spent at the old home near a snug southern village on The Island. Came along smiling countryside, that had been fresh washed by the afternoon showers. Came by level meadows or often past rolling fields whereon herds grazed; crossed bridges be- neath which rivers flowed onward in wide or narrow graceful wind- ings lost to me soon between fields p or woodlands in the misty distance beyond. We passed fannsteads. from whence I fancied folks had gone to their evening worshipping, or perhaps having gone in the mornin now forgathered quietly on door steps or a verandah with family or friends.

I came back to be met by the family car at the corner store and to Alderiea to find James minding the small one in her cot, then fast asleep in the house across the lane And how had James spent the waking hours of my absence? Had he gone visiting on Saturday eve.- ,ning' as I had found myself won- dering or had he gone lonesomely

to bed, his desolation increased by s wind which swept into our val- ley and mourned about the house- ' comers? I asked him about it soon after my home-coming when I found him in an easy chair in tho sun porch at Jeanie's. The dusk thickened then prematurely by an overhanging smoke or a. fog from the dampness, was fast enfolding Alder-lea shutting us in, with the mill and the house on the hill,i from the busy outside. world. mak- ing of this a small quiet place set apart from all sight or sound of its bustling, surrounded and sheltered by the encircling hills, touched now by the dlmness of approach- ing night.

"And what did you do while I was away?" I inquired of James His eyes lingered on the green of the pond, water towards which the twilight was creeping, on the grey gables of the mill as seen through the tops of the spruces and on the bridge which spans a stream. “I?" he repeated absently as though loath to take his eyes from the tranquility and peace of the en- chanting scene before him. "Oh, it was late when we got indoors Sat- urday night. We finished hauling all of the hay that was seasoned, and then we went at some other

Perhaps you see passers-by who have an enlargement of the thyroid gland in the front part of ‘he neck and wonder why they do not have it removed. You have friends who have nan these enlarged glans and have had them removed by SUPPYY or X-ray irentmens.
