My wife is a fine woman and a good mother, but we do no‘ get along wcll, mostly on account of money. I turn over my entire pay check and she doles me out money for lunch and carfare. Yet she is constantly reproaching me for not taking her out or giving her presents but how can I when I have given her all of my money? I am getting near the end of my endurance. What can I do? YWZISERABLE ANSWER: Begin by ceasing to turn over your pay envelope lo your wire. That is always a fatal mistake for a man to make. No wo- man who doles out carfare and lunch money to her husband can keep from having a patronizing attitude towards him. Give your wife a fair allowance to run the house time balance of your money for yourself. Then you can give her some of the treats that she demands. You seem to have got a particularly unreasonable domestic tyrant, for she not only ensiaves you and takcs all you make. but expects you to do the impossible and give her still more, and the only thing you can do about it is to deoose i181‘ and usurp the throne yourself. - But it is hard to undo the sympathy. on and keen work of 15 years. and you have my I am a woman in my lets forties. with a com- fortable income. I have never been married or had a love affair. but now I have fallen desperately in love with a man of 24. He has no money. ‘If he should ask me to marry him, what would you advise nlc to do?
