No one knows how often I stayed awake all night beoause he's broken our date. He took other girls out, too, and boasted how many he had; he even asked my best friend, and I was so humiliated I cried. "He lied to me consistently— and I was so infatuated I for- gave him, though he made my life miserable . "At last I got wise. I gave him up. He had asked me to marry him, and suddenly I realized what a h usband he would make. That did it! Now I have four boys who take me out, and not one ever stands me up! I'm hav- Ing a wonderful life, and only regret I wasted so much time being a doormat for one no- good boy.

I bet a daughter-in-law wrote it, and I'd hate to be a parent to that creature. "Hereafter, people should put their babies out to board in some cheap place as soon as they're born. Why should parents stay up nights taking care of them and doing with- out necessities to clothe and feed and educate them? They should save their money so when they're old, they can live in luxury instead of a furnished room! "That daughter-in-law pro- bably would like her husband to poison his parents — and in- cidentally, if the old people had saved their money for them- selves, they could buy their own car instead of using a bus.

Problems of every period from childhood to old age, are presented in simple language, and counsel plus sym- pathy reward the reader.

YOU CAN'T BEAT 'EM — So you might as well join 'em when the ladies get the urge to houseclean. If you've ever thought of departing for the Orient come spring cleaning time—don't. Luckless wretch, at left, is pressed into service an his day off to lug floor mats out of doors so that the lady of the house can heat them. Scene is in Tokyo, dismal drama is universal. COVERING UP — Actress Sandra Giles, 23, slapped artist Phillip Paval, threatened court action, and tearfully denounced photo- graphers as she covered the midriff of "Lady Chance," a nude painting of her. The painting was unveiled at the opening of the Fremont hotel in Las Vegas, Nev. Sandra claims she posed for sketches for the painting in a bathing suit, and that the finished painting was to show her covered up. TABLE TALLKS s edaw, AndDews.

Hunt Down The Traps Every year, says the General Electric Company, two to three mil- lion refrigerators are junked in the United States. And during the last 10 years 110 children have suffo- cated Inside these tempting hiding places — an average of 11 a year, .Americans likely will be mildly shocked to learn that ninny of these wee:'anienl ma. rets do wear out; they will be profoundly shocked to hear how many of them, through no one's intent, have become lethal traps for small fry. Thirty - flve states lmve enacted laws requiring removal of door or fastener from a refrigerator that is to be discarded. GE says it is now turning out a cabinet with doors held closed by magnets only —doors a child can kick open easi- ly. Tint is certainly a contribution to safety. But there are undoubted- ly several million mechanically latched refrigerators yet to be re- tired. And town and country of- ficials can hardly police every spot every day where an old box might be thrown out. So parents would do well to take a look around their own neighborhoods now that vaca- tion tirne is near.—From The Chris- tian Science Monitor.
