Wife's Joby Never-Ending

Woman's ‘Work ls llever lloee, Yet Husband complains '

"’ A women writes me that her husband continually rcproeches her with not earning her living. She says she has four children, running from a. baby, who has to have something done for it practically every hour of the day and half the night. to children of school age, who must be fed and. brushed and combed and tutored and gotten off to school and whose incessant cry is "Mother, I can't find my geography," “Mother. where's my hat?" “Mother, Teacher said you would have to help me with my home work more.”

In addition, this woman does all of her house- work. She cooks and cleans and washes and irons end scrubs arid sews and msnds and dams end patches and nurses the sick. She gets up special meals foo- her husband's guests and writes the fem- lly letters and keeps up the social contacts.

And still her husband doesn't think that she earns her board and keep. And lots of other men also believe that their wives lead lives of inglorious ease because they have HOW“!!! to do but to keep house and rear s family. What a pity that these men dont do e little figuring and see what it would cost them if they had to hire e substitute to pinch-hit for Mom.

- HELP COSTLY

To begin with, Just hiring a cook these days. when servants are a luxury only for the rich, would set them balck anywhere from $20 a weck up, with the accept on the up. Scrub women ere the price of pearls. The laundry bill for any family with children would give Papa heart failure when he had to Ply it. ‘Trained nurses run into astrono- mical flgures. And even baby-sitters come so‘ high that only the wealthy can afford them.

VYet, there are husbands who have the nerve to complain that their wives don't earn their livipzl No man knows how much his wife saves him until she is worked to death and he has to hire helf a dozen female employees to do the labor that she turned out single-handed. Th6 Tea-Sen that Widowers with children nearly always remarry is doubtless because they couldn't afford to stay single.

Of course, not all women are Marthas. There are lazy. trifling loafers almong them who turn over and take another snooze cf a morning, instead of getting up and cooking their husbands a good breakfast. and who let their children go dirty and unkempt, and who never set their families down to e decent meal. Certainly these women who lay down on the wife and mother Job don't earn their living and they deserve to be fired.

But the number of these slackers is very small. ‘The great major- ity of married women form the hardest worked and most ill-paid labor group that we have. No union protects their rights. No five day week for them. No short-houred day. No holidays. No extra. pay for overtime and night labor.

‘ They work from sun to sun. Their labor is never done e.s long es s. husband and children are coming home hungry, or a baby cries for its bottle. or a. bed is unmade or the floor unswept, and many a one of them never gets even the poor pay of appreciation for her labor.

. Many an overworked wife has a. husband who accuses her of not earning her living. Tie that. if you can.

There h no question but ihst in Q10 861i IIIBJOPIW of oeses of over- Welkht. if the amount of food is re- dllftéd there W111 b9 sang 1955 of weight.

1n cases where the thyroid, pit-nit,- 811’. ldrensl. sex or other glands are not manufacturing enough juice. then the use of extract of one of more of these glands will further reduce weight even after the food intake has been reduced to s safe amount. And there also are cases in which even after food has been reduced and gland ex- tracts used. some excess fat above the normal amount still rcmains.

Notwithstanding all that health writers have stated regarding box- ers. Jockeys, wrestlers. football players and other athletes getting rid of excess fat by cutting down on all liquids, and table salt in and on food, there are still many over- weight: who refuse to believe that water and table salt can prevent loss of weight.

It is interesting to read the let- ter of Dr. Herman Zondek. Jeru- salem. to the Editor of the Ameri- can Medical Association. He states that 2O years ago he pointed out what he called water-salt obesity: That there were cases of overweight in wil-iich water and salt were the underlying cause, and that cutting down on food. the use of gland ex- tracts, and even the use of such drugs as dinitrophenol and benze- d/rine sulfate were not effective. Water and salt appeared to be the one and only cause.

In some cases where excess liquids in the fat tissues of the body and- the cutting down on all liquids seem to be “slow" in reducing weight. the use of mercury, anmnon- ium chloride and otiher drugs could be safely used to drive excess water out of the tissues. A Turkish bath also will remove P0unds of weight vuhen a certain weight must be at- tained by a. boxer or Jockey at s definite t‘me before a bout or race. In the case of s boxer. he may be as much es five pounds heavier at the time of the bout (ringside) at nigiht as he was at weighing-in time at 2 o'clock that same after- noon.

Remember, we ell need water end salt every day. but the overweight in most cases does not need liquids as his excess fat holds water like a sponge.
