Problem Over JNext Marriage

i DEAR MARY I-IAWORTH: Would, llappreciate your advice concerning ll iproblem of mine. I am divorced .and have a young daughter. Charles 'iiet's call liimi and I plan to be married next month.

We have been going together for: two years and in that time I thought. my daughter and Charles. got along quite well. I know thiitl she adores him. Therefore I was shocked when. only recently. he: told me that he doesnt even like ilhe child. and thinks of my form- er husband every time hegsees her.i

Also he says that in future. dur-i iiig our marriage. he will be think-. ying ”There goes money that could ihave been saved for a child of. tours-." every t.me I buy some- ithing for her. trier father pays for. her support. medical bills. etc.) He adds that he will he very embar- rassed when friends of his come to see us. and he has to explain that June is his step.-hild. I i Clinrles is very well educated and the cliildrcn in his neighbor-. hood are very fond of hlm. He. seems HRH adjusted and mature in' 3most matteis. except tlicse concern-I ing my Clllld. Do you think itj would cause mo much uiiliappiness: to marry under those circumstances? My second iiiarriage MUST be suc- cessfui. , C R.

Last year about 1.250 American!- were killed by accidental poisoning.i Four-fifths of those fatalities oc- curred in the home. And 811110” half of the victims were four years' old or less.

Causes of Poisoning!

Now. what causes these household

poisonings? What can you do 10 keep your child off. this Or HEN year's fatalitiy list?

The Chicago Poisoning Control

Committee, of which I am ll mem- ber. gives us a pretty good picture of the source of most home accid- uital poisonings in Chicristl Mid 1 think the statistics will hold up throughout the rest of the country.

Kitchen and dining areas are so closely related. it in smart to make food preparation casual, even for guests.

A "blender" or " d r" can be used by the whole family from ten- year-old to grandpa, in uzzlng re- freshments for guuta or a snack for ibernselvu... Blenders are priced at various amounts. and in many cases 1 blende will cost the entire gift amount allotted to L family. 13 t it will add gaiety and service the year through.

"The children can 'buu' their own velvety ice cream and milk drinks and 'lhakes'", observed the Chef. "For adults watching the waistline. I suggest fruit and fruit juice drinks ibuzzedi with a little fruit sherbet."

"And mother will love it for quick-preparing cream soup mix- tures ready to beat. whipping pota- toes, salad dressings. and blending

In a study of I50 cases of accid-Jsauces." I added. ”A minute or two.

They accounted for 6'! of the 150 poisonings. Cleaning agents ac- counted for 34: fuel oils. 20; D9551-I rides ll; disinfectants and antisep- tics, 10. and the remaininlz five WPY9 caused by miscellaneous items.

Breaking down the report even further. we find that aspirin. a medication found in virtually every home. caused 20 accidental poison- ings - more than any other single item.

Half of these polsoninizs were traced to the young victim's fond- ness for the candy-coated variety of aspirin. The yoiingsier simply liked the candy coating.

Other internal medicines most often found to have caused poison- ings when they got into the hands of ;youngst4-rs were laxatives and sedatives. External medications also caused a number of illnesses. Lini- ment and potassium permanganate. a disinfectant. were most often at fault.
