R. A.- I am almost insane from
worry at timer. My husband has
built a new home about 20 yards
from his people and he has the
Crucliat mother that almost ever
lived.1 No one can get along with
her not even her children. She
picks at me all the time and treats
me I ke a dog. She e'en talks to
my own husband against me.
Please tell me will I Clave to be tor
mented with her all my young day*
Am: Well you will, unless you
*tep on her toes and let her know
that, you want nothing more to do
with her. Treat ng her decent

I suggest that you make the ac

E. R. G.—A young man asked
me to spend the Christmas Holi
days in Florida with him. Do you
think I should? Does he really
like me as much as he says? What
would his people think of me?
Ans: When a young unmarried
man asks a young unmarried lady
to spend the holidays with him in
another state—you can usually bet
your bottom dollar that he has a
few ideas up his sleeve. I recom
mend that you talk the matter over
with your own parents. If they
thin! its okay and you feel that
you want to go -then accept.
A. G.—As I take this paper ev

every week I thought I would
write —and ask you to tell me why
my husband goes to see a “Root
Mar” every week? Does he go
to keep me down so I can’t get
no mrney?
Ans: No, I don’t believe that’s,
the reason. I believe if you get to
the bottom of the trouble you will
find a "lady friend” of your hus
bands. A woman, older than your
self, seems to influence him a
great deal and seems to be prof
iting from his trips to tbs man.
Therefore she is encouraging him
to make frequent visits.
T. T_Would it be best for my
daughter to go north or remain
where she is?
Ans: Taking everything into
consideration—it is best for her to
STAY WHERE SHE IS. A very
favorable year is indicated for her
throughout 1939 and to leave her
present surroundings would only
mean giving tip everything she has
accomplished.

(Continuation of BEAUTY BE
FORE and AFTER MARRIAGE
In neglecting your own physical
charm, you are encouraging lack
of interest in your husband. A
husband may for sometime not no
tice the change. Sooner or later,
however, meeting other women, he
will make comparisons. He wil^
suddenly realize that his wife no1
longer appears young and beauti
frl as when first he married her. I
And he may turn to some other!
woman for the charm his wife no'
longer supplies.
The intelligent woman gives
seme time each day to the "keep-'
ing up” of her quota of personal
charms. Youth And bcrauty are j
largely a matter of good mental
and physical condition. Every
woman should study how to keep1
her youth and beauty.
Try to improve upon what nat
ure has given you! Fill in and
round out the omissions of which
she may have been guilty! This
is not alone your right, —it is your
duty. Ft is commendable, not a
matter for apology. Be beautiful
in middle life. You may even be
beautiful in old age. Hold your
husband’s affection and admiration.
"Beauty Culture” is a good and
legitimate thing if not overdone,
and natural charm may with per
fect propriety be enhanced or plac

have a knowledge of the practical
facts which make for her physical

FASHIONETTE
by JULIA SANFORD
In keeping with your daytime
loveliness, you’ll want to be es
pecially lovely at night too. Have
you noticed the lovely lounging I
robes, house coats, and pajamas. |
They’re a dream. So daintily fem
inine. They’re styled for comfort,
as well as for becomingness, and
they’re styled in all the latest col
ors and materials. The charm of
these lounging garments lies in
their utter simplicity, the richness
of the fabrics from which they are
made and their full skirts with
their slim waistlines. They're sure
to bring out your best points and
make you look your loveliest.
, Seen in the shops are the love
liest of the loveliest. Here are two
which caught my eye.
The first is one of those slender
waisted, full skirted, housecoats j
in changeable taffeta. The bodice'
is embroidered with holly leaves
with their bright red berries. The
housecoat has large puffed sleev
es and a rounded collar. The slen
der silhouette is kept by the zipper
running the length of the garment.
(Zippers are an added essential in
keeping those graceful, slenderiz
ing silhouettes.)
The second one is charming in
its simplicity. It is made of bright ]
red flannel on princess lines, fitted
at; the waist, with a full zipper
front. The sleeves are loose, fall
ing to the wrist. The robe has a
quilted Indian design runnng from
shoulder to hem.
In either of these charming
lounging robes, you’ll love those
long winter evenings at home.

HOLIDAY PUDDINGS
by Arden H. Duane for ANP.
I think a steamed pudding is a
satisfactory dessert for a festive
dinne,’ that is sure to bring fam
ilies and friends together during
tho holiday season. You may de
cide upon a light or substantial
pudding or a simple or rich or per
haps a 'holiday pudding gay with
holly that will be the highlight of
the Xmas dinner.
Always remember this: that a
really good steamed pudding is no
better than its ingredients. The
suet must be very very fresh. Buy
the finest dried fruits and the best
flour. Be sure to sift it carefully
before measuring it.
Steamed puddings may be cook
ed in glass baking dishes, pudding
melds, empty baking powder boxes
or coffee tins. They should be
placed on a trivet or rack in a ket
tle of hot water, tightly covered.
The water should come up about
halfway round the molds and be
kept boiling, hot water added as
needed. The mold must be thor
oughly greased and filled not more
than two thirds full. Don’t lift
the cover if you can possibly avoid
it—-but, of course, if this is your
very first steamed pudding I'm
at'raiu your curiosity ’"ill get the
best of you.
CHRISTMAS PUDDING One
third cup suet, one 'half pound figs
finely chopped, two and one half
cups stale bread crumbs, one teas
peon, three fourths cup milk, three
fourths teaspoon cinnamon, one
half teaspoon grated nutmeg, one
half eup seeded raisins, two table
spoons flour, four eggs, well beat
er. two teaspoons baking powder.
Chop suet and work with your
hands until creamy, than add figs.
Soak bread crumbs in milk anti
eggs, sugar, salt and spires. Com
1 ne mixtures, add nutmeats, the
raisins cut in pieces and dredged
with flour. Sprinkle over with
baking powder and beat thorough
ly. Steam three hours and serve
with a rich hard sauce. Flavor the
hard sauce with sherry or with
rum. If you like or with brandy.
It makes that real Xmas-y tang.
When you turn the pudding out of
the mold for serving top it with a
spr g of holly full of berries and
lay the holly all around the pudd
iny.
OLD COUNTRY PLUM PUDD
