i Nagging Wife Should be Hanged for Man- slaughter, Says Victim - Can a Girl Cure Herself 0f Being Boy-Crazyil-Better to Beware of Self-Centered Woman

Dcar Miss Dix-If my wife killed me with a gun, she would be hanged. But she has killed me with her tongue Just as surely as she would if she had slain me with a bullet, for I am dying with angina pectvrli. which

is the direct result of her nagging at me for forty , years. And my only fault has been that I did not make as much money as some other men did, I have worked hard all my life, furnished my family c. comfortable home, a car, a servant, given my children college educations, yet not one happy clay have I had because others had more than we did. If a, woman can be punished for taking a man's life, why should she not be punished for taking away from him all that makes life worth having‘? A VICTIM.

Answer :

I agree with you that a woman or a man who murders the soul of a husband or wife is a. far greater criminal than those who merely clay the bodies of their mates. For deatlrfrom a pistol or a knife or poison is swift and the agony soon ovcr, whereas they kill their victims by slow torture that often goes on for years and years.

If these assassins were given a punishment to fit their crimes it would be something with boiling oil in it, but, alas, their dark and nefari- ous deed is done so subtly and secretly that the law i8 DQWQPIOSS W deal villi them as they deserve. But I often think that when the Day of Judgment comes many a man who looked upon himself as a. model of all ;lie virtues and many a. soft pink woman who would have fainted at the light of a drop of blood is going io find himself and herself relegated to ihat exceedingly tropical place where are corallcd all the Blue Beards ind the Borgias and the worst of the husband and wife murderers.

For many a woman slays hcr husband by her nagging and fretlng ind whining. Many a woman works her husband to death to pay for ier extravagance. Many ll. man dies before his time simply because he ias no will to live iii a world where his wife has blasted his every hope and ilighted his ambition and destroyed everything that made existence en- iurable. Many a man is driven to suicide by a wife's tears and reproach- s because she cannot have everything n mlllionalress has.

And there are just as many wile murderers as there nrc husband ulrdcrcrs. There are plenty of men who marry u tender, l0vliig,_cliiig- ng woman and who starve her to death for even a crumb of affection.

‘here are plenty of men who break their wives‘ hearts and send thcm o an early grave by their infldeiitles. There arc plenty of women who lerally perish of fear of their husbands’ tempers and tnntrunls 11nd rourlics and abuse. There are plenty of women who literally wither away and die under the blight of an unhappy marriage.

And the worst phase of the situation is that it is so impossible for ‘he one who is married to one of these husbands or wife slayers to defend iiinsclf ‘or herself against attack. There are always “on the spot," as licy say in gang circles, and ready to be stabbed in the back or bcaicn I\‘(’l' the hcacl with a club or rendered helpless by tear-gas bombs. Their mly remedy is flight. Their only safety is in making a getaway. And Z think that any man who is married to a nagging woman arid any Vfillian 1m.) is married to a grouchv abusive man is Perfectly Jvstifisdhl ;cttiiig up and leaving.

Even the law gives us the right of self-defense, and they are saving iomcthiiig far more precious than lifc itself. They are savng their souls ind all which makes life worth having. DOROTHY 131x-

Out of the lining of the purse she took the pound note she always kept there for an emergency. Still not enough. In the pockets of "her coat hanging on the wall Rosemary found some loose coins. They Just made up the difference.

"I'll have to walk home," she thought philosophically. ‘It's lucky my rent is paid up."

Coidly and in silence she handed the money to Layton, who received it in a silence that was anything but cold. It was smouldering.

“I'll have notice of your refusal to finish your contract in writing, if you please, Miss Martin."

Rosemary wrote a few lines on a slip of paper and handed thcm to Layton. “My receipt, please," she said. '

When Layton had gone she look- ed at the slip of paper in her hand with a ruefui smile.

“This won't keep him from telling everybody that I've let hlin down," she thought. This, indeed, was ox- actly what Layton intended doing.

FOR DiNNEQ-ITS SIX OCLQCK AND we no DESSERT.

Time is the only infallible remedy for your complaint. It is one of the ailments common to adolescence and in a few years you will outgrow it, but while you are suiTering from it you are in great danger of doing something foolish and rash that wil! make it terminate fatally for you.

For whilc a girl is boy crazy she is in a sort of ‘delirium in which she does not see anything straight, but has her mind filled with all sorts of fancies and notions and obsessions. She beholds a Fairy Prince in iniaignes hcrsclf desperately in love with any youth with long eyelashes, and while she is thus out of her head she only too often writes mash iiotcs to strangers or flirts with men she meets on the street or runs off and gets married to some youth whom her father has to support.

Of course, as I said, in a few years you will get over being boy crazy, but in the meantime why not try a little home treatment and size up the boys you know and try to see what it is in them that should make you run a temperature? Analyze theni and try to figure out what is so wonderful and marvelous and fascinating about Tom, Dick and Harry, who may make fine men later on, but now are just hobbledehoys who are nothing to write home to mother about. DOROTHY DIX.

O i t O l O Dear Dorothy Dix-What is the best method to pursue in order to inake my spoiled, sofiisli, self-centered girl friend give me some consideration once iii .1 whilc? Her cvcry thought is what she wants to do and she incvci" shows any consideration of my wishes. I have catered to her in cvcry way cver since we met, but a fellow surely gets tired of being a slave and a (loorlnnt for a girl, even though he loves her. Can you suggest a Wily to make hcr give me a break now and then? I'd be satisfied with a small cncl, say l0 pcr cent out of a hundred.

A PERPLEXED BOY. Answer: .

Alas, soil, there is no way in the world of ever changing a selfish, self-centered woman. She has been spoiled and she is rotten to the bone and never, as long as she lives, will she ever give any other human being a thought or any consideration. It will always be self, self, self with hcr.

But llsteii, son, you've got your warning, and if you go on and marry hcr you will have brought your misery on yourself, because she will al- ways walk roughshod over you. She will never have any sympathy for you. She will always look upon you as a servant to wait on her, a slave to toil for her and a gigolo to take her out when she wants to go a- partying.

And you will get no thanks or appreciation for what you do for her but bitter rcproachcs when you fail to supply all the money she needs. And, as you-say, after a while a man gets mighty tired of giving all and getting nothing back in return.

When a man marries a selfish, spoiled, self-centered girl his guardian angel simply throws up its hands and quits ori the Job, for his case is
