My problem is the boy friend. Peter is afraid that after we are married I will become like my mother. She is pleasant, cheerful person but her world is bounded on all skies by her home and family,. Mom is 20 pounds overweight and has no outside interests, Peter says he is not sure he could stay in love with a humdrum house- wife who !eta her looks and figure go to pot as soon as she gets her man, I don't know how to defend myself against this argument. Can you help? - ST. LOUIS WOMAN, Dear Woman: Why don't you ask Peter what as^,urance you have that HE will not become it * Paunchy, dull and boring as soon as he gets his girl. There's no reason a woman can't keep her looks and figure and continue to be aware of what is happening in the world after .the marries.

My boy friend does .not like concerts, the opera, lee- tures or sad movies. Also, he does not care very much for our minister. Whenever he must sit through something that clod not interest him he gets the hiccups and excuses himself, I notice that he never gets the hiccups when he is watch- ing Batman or a cowboy movie, Also, he •never gets the hiccups during a poker game or a football game or when he is at the races. He insists that it is not pos- sible to bring on the hiccups but I am suspicious. Please give me the facts. Also any suggestions you might have to out-fox him.-BAM BOOZZIED, Dear Barn: The hiccups can be brought on at will, but not everyone can do it, It's a rare talent-like wiggling your ears. Carry a paper bag in your purse. When Foxy starts to hie, hand him the paper bag and ask him to breathe in it for a few minutes.
