| Your Problems |
Husband Is Irritable.
Dear Miss Allen: I have been mar
ried 14 years and have lived very hap
pily until, five years ago. My hus
band Is seven years older than I and
has become Irritable and old in his
way*. •
When our first baby was 20 months
old he cried almost every night and
my husband would spank him and
thrown hint down in his bt*l. I called
him a bad name and he choked me.
He has told me I wasn't fit to sleep
on the bed and should sleep under it.
His father lives with us and 1 have
three babies now, making six in the
family. It isn't at ail pleasant hav
ing his father around, as he is very
disagreeable and careless. I hire
nothing done and do all my work well.
I belong to two clubs and ho acts
mean about going. We had a club
dance and ho went to a movie and
wouldn't go with mo. 1 told him I
couldn’t stand 'to live tMist way and
he satjFSe didn't mind if 1 stayed out
all night’. I went to tho dance with
the crowd- Did I do right? When T
tell something he contradicts me. 1£
• I insist He says I lie and so I have to
keep Still or have a quarref. T go to
Bmoviel once n week and he throws it
up tb line that I spend too much
money. haven't had a new dress
for a year. Should 1 drop my clubs,
give up movies and not have any
pleasure? just because he will not go?
THANK YOU.
You.-certainly have trials and obsta
cle* t6 asvercome in order to obtain
happiijeg? in your domestic circle, hut,
my dear-woman, you are tacklipg the
situation selfishly. Recreation means
a greatiienl in a woman's life, hut
pleasutelUSeeking does not bring as
rich returns as an unselfish effort to
make V.iuishand happy and to keep
his lovsejpprobabiy your husband suf
fers jgs?~ns much from lack of har
mony Vs you do. It must make him
sick at ^teart to know how his old
father; irritate* you. An old person
is such "S' victim of habit that noth
ing SuU patience and gentleness :
could Jt»Eh your father-in-law more i
agreeabtS^and careful ways.
Alscr you and your husband have
grown.Stray from each other to such
an extent that it is not pleasure for
either of you to he together. Prob
ably tfie,.f£Ct that he will not go hurts
I you more for* the looks of it than be
cause you cannot have his company.
If giving up your club* and other
|| bring domestic hap
piness -would advise you to take
that but you would feel a
even your husband would
not to give up affiliations

and Personally I think It
that you "rowed” over

consider the comfort and
your husband first. When
he are genuinely interested

Marlon Is Reconciled to Her Mother's
Love.
"Do you think she'd he happier
married to him'.’1'
Marion's earnest question concern
ing? her mother and Robert' Savarin
repeated itself In my brain several
times before I found voles' to answer
the child. It was a question I bad
asked myself so often in the last
year. Before that I iiad been sure
that happiness for Lillian lay only in
this revivified and glorified Aye of
her young girlhood for the artnft who
had aided her to find out that her
life tools were brush and pencil in
stead of typewriter and notebook. I
even had been impatient of the
Quixotic scruples which kept her
legally bound to Harry Underwood.
But with the knowledge that
Robert Savarin was a very Turk In
his old-fashioned attitude toward her
having any work which involved as
sociation with men, I had found my
self doubting the wisdom of such an
alliance between Lillian, up-to-date
faminlst, resourceful and competent
professional woman and the famous
eccentric artist. Yet the love between
them was a very beautiful thing, and
I knew that Lillian had suffered
poignantly because of her inability
to square her heart with her con
science.
An Indecisive Answer.
Yes? or No? Which answer should
I give the child watching me so
eagerly? With a sense of failing her,
I brought out the only answer I
honestly could give her.
"Marion, dear, I don't know,” I
said slowly.
Her expressive fare betrayed the
disappointment she felt, and with a
sudden • impulse, I threw hair split
ting to the winds, and said the one
tiling of which may knowledge of Lil
lian made me sure.
"But—dear child—there is one
thing I can tell you, and that is this
Better than Robert Savarin, or any
thing else in the world she loves
you.”
I had struck 1?. I knew it as I
saw her suddenly starry eyes, and
the flush which spread over her face
a flush which held as much of con
trition as it did of joy. She was too
honest, however, to deny the tri
umphant happiness that was hers at
my assurance, and she faced me
bravely.
"You don't know how happy
---
you’ve made me, Auntie Madge, by
telling me that,” she said. "I always
have hoped that Mother did love me
heat o£ anybody, and of course she
always has told me so, but some
times, you know, mothers don't like
to hurt their children, and I've won
dered.”
“Well, you don't need to wonder
any longer!” 1 said briskly, “for 1
can give you my word of honor, and
as Katie says, 'cross my he\t. hope
to die,’ that what I have told you
is the absolute truth.”
She put her hands to her heart
with an eloquent “little gesture.
“It’ll lie All Right Now.”
“It’ll he all right now if she does
marry Uncle Robert,” she said, and
In the words were revealed her
progress from childhood to woman
hood.
The little girl she had been hed
begged her mother to marry "Uncle
Robert.” as she might have pleaded
for a new toy. But older grown, she
secretly had jealously feared that
Killian's marriage would mean the
relegation of her daughter to second
place In her affections. But my as
surance that she was nearest to her
mother^ of ail tho world, evidently
had provided her with an armor
which she deemed fully protective.
“I suppose I'm fearfully selfish,”
she sighed, with all the young girl's
propensity for Introspection, hut I
interrupted her self • recrimination
ruthlessly.
“You're not selfish at all,” I said
didactically. “There's something
wrong with the mother who doesn't
love her children best of all the
world, and you may be very sure
that your mother Is a very normal
woman."
“But, Auntie Madge—” she stop
ped and flushed as If embarrassed.
“Yes, dear, what is it?"
“I ought not to ask you. Mother
say* I shouldn't ask personal ques- |i
tlons, hut do you mean that a worn- j,
an loves her children better than she
(loes her husband, thoir father? Do
you love Junior better than you do
t'ncle Dicky?”
