SCAB Miss CHATFIELD:
My bo*t wiled smoothly on the set of matrimony for a number of
•oars and then my husband's working hours were changed and he started
to work in the afternoon, getting off around midnight. He began stop
pint by the bar for a beer and this has led to the practical wrecking ot
our home. Hot that he takes too much to drink but that he meets peo
Me who have no regard for hours and no regard for their wives at home.
He stays out later and later unltl It has reached the point where he
■Sts in sometime during the early morning. He resents my questioning
h. u and h< >*u peeved because I cannot sleep until he Is In. I work
ti a business office and go home to an empty house as he has to leave
before I get In. I am willing to sacrifice all pleasures, work to main
tain our home If only I could look forward to hts coming home when
his work Is done. Sleeplessness and worry are wearing me out. Yet
be says hts conscience Is perfectly clear. Have you any suggestions to
offer for bringing him back to a sweet and harmonious home life?
N. H. S.
ANSWIlt:
If you ean live on what your husband earns, wouldn't It be better
lar you to give up your Job and settle down to home making? Other
WWO, you will have to devise ways and means of making the hours
Which you and your husband now spend together, more pleasant
than they are. A man (unless he’s better than average) won't go
fcbme for duty's sake. He won't go home unless he Is pretty sure It
will be pleasant when he gets there. The working wife has to be a
Whls of a manager to keep the sort of home that will lure a husband
away from the bright lights and gay company of the bar, where he
ean eat, drink and be merry when his night's work Is done. Tired
from her day’s Job, a little bit resentful that she has been dqing
Sdouble duty day In and day out, she's not In the mood to be tactful
th a man who Is Inconsiderate ot her and Indifferent to her peace
mind. But—here are the alternatives: Lure him home with soft
word* and light laughter or be resigned to his staying away. There
la something queer about the effect which system and order and
regular hours have on morals. Of course there are millions of men
Who work at night and go home to their wives when the Job Is Un
ioned. They foil Into the routine of nlghtwork and daytime sleep
juit os othoro fall Into the routine of daylight work and night sleep,
tut the boys, old and young, who mix up work and play, oatlng and
gJOeplng with no regtilar home habits, are likely to lose their bear
ings and (tumble into trouble.
And there la something miraculous about the Influence of a home
<a a marriage. Four waits, a range to cook on, a table to sit at, a bed
tA sleep In, don't make a home. Hotels and even prisons have these.
The tiling that makes a home different (rum a lodging placo is the
presence of a woman in it, her loving thought and care expended on it.
How can she supply what it takes when she works all day in an ofllcc,
lies awake most of the night worrying and spends the rest of the time
fault with the man who has brought her to this. She can't.
A husband and wlef who say "do-cl-do" to one another as they
ie in and go out to separate jobs are not very much married.

The Family Doctor
Iritis Should Be Treated At Once;
Scarring May Affect Vision
BY DR. MORRIS HSHBEIN
Cdltor. Journal of the American
Medical Association, and of
Hygela, the Health Magaalne
The Iris Is the colored portion of
the eye, It can become Infected and
btjflamed from various causes. When
It U Infected, It becomes swollen,
dulj, and discolored. The pupil gets
small, gray and sluggish.
Pain, radiating to the forehead
and to the temple, Is worse at night,
and there Is much disturbance of
vision. A person who 1ms an In
flamed Iris cannot bear to look at
light, and his eye Is constantly
watering.
One of the most common causes
of this condition Is, of course, syph
ilis. However, the Iris may also be
come Infected by other germs, or
rheumatic conditions may be re
sponsible.
It Is of the utmost Importance to
attend to this condition immediately
because the Inflammation and the
Infection may result In scarring
which will cither block the pupil
entirely or bind the Iris down In
snob manner as to prevent Its mo
tion. Obviously this will cause per
manent disturbance of vision.
When a doctor taken care of this
condition, he applies drugs which
relieve congestion and put the part
at rest. Dilation of ths pupil will
prevent the scarring and tend to
break up the small scars that have
already formed.
Various preparations of atropine
are useful for this purpose. There
are other drugs, anesthetic In
character, which prevent pain.
The doctor may also prescribe moist,
hot compresses for several hours
This will tend to diminish pain and
tnflammatlon.
Of particular Importance, how
ls systematic treatment of
tills end other conditions. Syphilis
affecting the eye means syphilis
elsewhere in the body and de
mands the kind of consistent and
persistent treatment necessary for
this condition.
If Iritis Is associated with a
rheumatic condition, the patient
must be treated for the general
rheumatic disturbance, with the
detection, It possible, of the focus
of Infection of the body and with
the elimination of that focus when
It is found.

condition by diet und Insulin to

condition as It affects the eyes.
Once the ailment Is cured, sur

be necessary to bring about nor

Why Mrs. Simpson Is Ranked Among
London’s Smartest Looking Women
Mm. Simpson ordered thin midnight blue velvet hostess gown from
Helene Yrande. The Intricate sleeves are covered with pallletes In
the sani exhadc.
PARIS.—Though there lias been Intense rivalry for her patronage,
Paris couturiers agree that Mrs. Wallis Simpson Is an eusy-to-plcase,
agreeable client who not only knows what ihe wants but also what she
should wear. She prefers beautiful fabrics and simple, almost tailored
lines to anything flashy or fussy.
Blue Is the favorite color of the "most talked of women In the world."
But, for indoor gowns at least, sho likes abslntho green and orchid. She
favors rich, sumptuous fabrics such as heavy satins, velvets, brocades
and crepes. She Is enthusiastic, to, about palllctcs and colorful bead
embroidery, but she Insists that these bo used subtly and sparingly.
From the collection of Helene Yrande, Mrs. Simpson selected a
hostess gown of midnight blue velvet with intricate, short sleeves dec
orated with palllctex In the same color. It has a short train, a molded
bodice and a draped neckline. So much did she like this model that she
ordered It In several colors besides blue.

Glorifying
Yourself
By Alicia Hart
(NEA Bervloc HtalT Writer)
The girl who makes rcMolutlons
Instead of wishes, then sticks by
them from now until December Ufi,
will be sure to net what she wants
most for Christmas—greater love*
lincss.
You can depend on Banin Claus
for bedroom slippers, flowers and
gadgets, but only you can give your
self n nicer skin, healthier hair or
a better figure. This Is tho day to
decide exactly how you want to look
Christmas morning and what you
are going to do to achieve that goal,
If you honestly want a clear scalp
and beautifully shiny tresses In
stead of that dull hair you have
now, allow ten extra minutes u duy
for vigorous brushing. Don't go to
bed until you have brushed and
brushed nnd brushed. Hold the
brush loosely in your hands and
work with llrm, upward strokes that
clean the scalp and polish each und
every strand.
Burely the woman with dry skin
wants her face und throat to look
sleek and smooth Instead of scnly
and dry. During the winter mouths
she should cleanse with cream In
stead of soap and water and use
night cream more conscientiously.
At night, cleansing cream should
be removed with a coarse, clean
towel. In the morning, with a wash'
cloth that has been dipped In very
hot water and squeezed as dry as
possible. Night cream ought to be
left on for at least half an hour.
If you want prettier hands, don't
wait for Santa Claus to bring a lux
urious manicure set, hand lotion
and cuticle cream. Get these Imme
diately and begin at once to use
tho lotion at least four times a day,
tho cuticle cream every night and
the orange sticks, emery boards and
new lacquer every five or six days.

EMERGENCY REMEDIES FOR
ANGINA
Angina pcctorl/i—tiie accent on
the An. not on thn gl—which ought
to seem natural to all who persist
In calling ab-do-men ab-do-men—
mcan.s choking pain In the chest,
heart-pang, heart-cramp.
Like epilepsy and asthma, angina
pectoris l.s a functional malady tho
seizures or nttacks of which are
characteristic enough to enable the
physician to diagnose the trouble,
but In the Intervals presents no de
finite organic change by which tho
pathologist may recognize the dis
ease.
Partial occlusion of restriction of
the coronary arteries (which supply
blood to the heart muscle or wall It
self; from arteriosclerosis Is prob
ably the primary factor of angina
pectoris. The Immediate cause of
thn attack, however, Is undoubtedly
asphyxia, anoxemia, insufficient ox
ygen supply to tho heart muscle?
Insufficient, that Is, to meet an
emergency demand under emotional
strain or some slight overexertion.
The first remedy for the emer
gency attack or threat or fear of
Impending attack of angina pectoris
Is Immediate cessation of strain, ef
fort or exertion. Come to a com
plete standstill wherever tho seizure
recurs, and sit down, or better lie
:lown If possible and remain per
fectly quiet.
Nitroglycerin (trlnltrln, glonoln,
flyoeryl nitrate;, Is the best omer
?ency remedy for the attack of an
dna pectoris. The patient may carry
xlways in pocket a small vial of
nitroglycerin tablets and take a tab
let whenever ho believes an attack
Impends. Nitroglycerin is volatile
and loses strength if exposed to the
air, but a dozen tablets In a stop
pered vial will retain their potency
for several weeks. The tablet dis
solved in the mouth produces its
characteristic effect on the circula
tion within two or three minutes.
Nitroglycerin la not a heart stimu
lant at all; it merely relaxes spasm
of the arterioles or smallest arteries,
and frees the circulation from re
striction. When the patient takes
sufficient nltroglycercln to have this
effect he usually notices some throb
bing In the head and flushing of
the face for a few moments. The
effect of nitroglycerin is prompt and
of short duration—it lasts only on
hour or two. Consequently the dose
is usually repeated every few hours,
where more lasting effect is re
quired. A moderate dose is l-200th
<one-two-hundredth) of a grain;
though many patients take tablets
containing one one-hundredth of a
grain of nitroglycerin.

Suspicion Confirmed
Interested In the complaint of
your corresjsmdent who said he
had paid $180 for Injection treat
ment of hemorrhoids ... Of oourse
the doctor who charged $180 was
either treating a millionaire or else
ho was a blood sucker. My own
feo for such treatment rarely Is as
high as $75, usually about $35, and
even where I have to operate the
total cost to the patient rarely runs
over $100. We must not let people
think that all doctors are extortion
ists. .. . (M. D.)
Answer—Thank you, Doctor. I
suspected the correspondent had
been taxed excessively, but his un
grateful crediting of tho cure to
some funny diet idea he had taken
up shortly after the treatment irked
me and I felt it must have been
worth $180 to> treat a patient like
that.

Woolei afternoon dresses, with
long sleeves that are wide at the

make an unusual sort of trimming
for these dresses. On others, signs
of the sodlac are embroidered at
trimming for sleeves or the bodice.

I like to telk about temper. It
is the most Interesting subject in
i all psychology. It is the devil's way
to get his revenge on humanity. He
picks, nearly always, the inferiority
folk for his pawns
Who doesn't love to get mad? I
never feel quite so brave as when
I am in a rage and ban tell people
exactly what I think of them. At
other times I am afraid. I go for
months thinking this and that, and
then when outraged and suddenly
furious. I find the blood rushing
to my head with that lovely "don’t
glve-a-dorn” feeling, and out I go
and tear things up right. Oh, how
grand it is, not to be afraid I'
Salks Cling to Their Joy
And if I am tills way, the most
gentle of souls, I assure you, eating
out of anybody's hand, you must
be this way too. I am not sparing
a soul today. In truth every moth
er's son of us. and daughter too,
Just loves to get mad. It is far more
fun tbait laughing. Or even eating.
It is an orgy demanded by the sup
pressions. and they have to get
out or else we’d go mad. So we
think.
And therefore, my bretheren, and
slsteren, we need to think about
Tommy’s temper, or Lucy’s sulks.
Yes, sometimes the possessor of a
good sound rage, prefers to wallow
in her feetings, and keep her joy
for a day or a week, instead of
letting it go all at once. She loves
to make others suiler or worry
about her as long as she can. Olve
me the active volcano every time,
rather than the brooding one that
keeps everybody jumpy and never
announces which way its lava may
run.
But neither are easy to live with.
Any kind of “temperamental” people
can spoil the peace of mind of
others, whether they nurse chronic
grouch or blow up periodically.
Righteous wrath has certainly a
place in the scheme of things. To
get healthily Indignant about some
not temper. And it h temper we
thing a man's right. But this is
are speaking about.
Sometimes children are unhap
pily placed. Their dally experience
is irritating, either at home, at
school or in their play life. This Is
conducive to temper, whether the
parent perceives the cause or not.
Children cannot always be sunny,
we must admit. If they are 1)1 or
weak physically they will often be
cross. I think this belongs In the
class of protest against unfair con
ditions and has a legitimate exouse.
Attempt At Intimidation
But, too often, it is the other
way, and the child who has no rea
so nto blow up does so for the rea
sons I have given. He cannot feel
Important enough without getting
mad. He oannot get his way, as
he wants it, and rather than listen
to reason or let someone else have
a ohanee, he resorts to the bully
method df intimidation.
Cure? Well, one way is to refuse
him his goal when he begnls to
storm. But first remove possible
causes of dally discontent. Try to
find out whether his disposition Is
being ruinod by something you
don’t suspect. If ho has a good
average of blessings, and there Is
no apparent root for this wild
growth, then I’d put a little salt on
the weed. Just don't put up with
his nonsense. Let him learn that
the oonsequenoes of temper do not
pay. He will weigh values, eventual
ly, and when he discovers that
temper pays no premiums, he will
learn more self control.

Problem
Reilly sat North. Halpln opened
the heart ace. His double was a
close one, but he felt that he could

it undoubled.
When a low heart was played
from the dummy, Reilly did not
hesitate fo ra moment. He ruffed
the ace and shot back the club

North and South thus won one
trump, two clubs, and the ace of
