And two years ago she came to stay with us. Jhe has no outside interests. and dves only ior her five children and many grandchildren. our three Ihlldren are married now.- and established elsewhere. In all the time she has been with us, people who telephone to talk with her ask for her either Is Grandmother. or Mother. or lane-her first name. In the inner circle that is her life. she has no occasion to be called Mrs. Doe. by those who telephone our res- idence. Even so. when the telephmm rings and she answers lb and someone asks "Mrs. Doe?" she answers "Yes". Then the speaker goes into his or her subject. and when it's time for Mrs. Doels re- pponsen Mother says. "Oh. I guess you want my daughter-in- law." She. too. is Mrs. Doe. grant, .hut in the circumstances. shouldn't she identify herself as NOT the lady of the house, right off? PETTY FRET? I realise of course that anyone asking for me as Mrs. Doe Pr0b- Ibly isn't a close friend: therefore the subject matter can't be too intimate or personal. Nevertheless rassing to me, many times.

Having reared and launched our children, easy to have an older person move in with us. and more or less take over. I would appreciate your com- ments; perhaps they will give all of us a hint on how to solve the problem. Fortunately there is no Interference in our marriage as such: and even my husband, whom I adore. considers our part- nership first. K. P. DVERWHELMED Dear K. P.: It is safe to say that your mother-in-law knows she is sailing under false colors. mom- entarily, when she encourages a telephone voice to address her as this Mrs. Doe. But curiosity gets the best of her. I suppose. so she proceeds indirectly to elicit as much Information as she can gbout the caller's purpose. before entarily, when she encourages a stepping aside. A familiar trait of thoughtless elderly persons-whose life nar- rows down to family-has to do with wanting to keep posted on eves-ybotb"s business in the house- hold. And most people instinct- Ively clam up. or back away. in the presence of busy inquisitive- lless. Hence the elderly person's hunger for vicarious sharing of othars' experience may present a behavior problem. His or her agg- ressive yen to be in-the-know may pose a barrier to good relations. MAY BE HELPFUI. Perhaps this is the case with your mother-in-law. Frustrated by a feeling of being "shut out" in the domestic situation. she may be involuntarily too active in put- Ilng her ear to the ground. as it were. If so. and if she happens to read this discussion. it may be all the minder she needs. ttio be more one in raepec ng your an as "first lady' of the house o . ..Until now. she probably indulges it? Ipeclal form of eavesdropping rather freely, on the theory that you can't make an Issue of it, without showing yourself in a bad Ight too. Also. she probably has no idea how acutely this thing wears on your nerves. DEAL OPENLY In general, the wholesome way reduce irritations in family life to "spot" the trouble. in friendly birlt. Don't sulk around It. Thus lbout the telephone. you might say hr example: "Mother, it bothers mwhen you take calls as Mrs. , and than I have to step up Ind go through the whole story 6 tbsp. olive oil. 3 tbsp. vinegar.

For example. you may have the notion that only the foods you do not cat can help you lose. That is the negative approach and leads to self-pity. and eventually back to your old food habits. Happily Iurprlsed. one enthusias- tic reducer has written to report that for the first time in her middla - aged life. she is losing pd weight without going hungry. Like molt overwelghts. she heretofore had regarded a diet as doing pep. nice for past oyereatlng. rather than a scientific way of eating that can turn pounds back into energy. CHANGE or HABIT!

This leads to a change of food habits and to keeping weight beautifully controlled. Lot's apply nutrition science . . . The mere act of eating uses calor- ies.
