perately in need of advice, I have
been married seven years and
have three lovely children. But
my husband is insanely jealous.
"He is jealous of the fact that
my sister and I are very close;
he resents my talking so often
on the phone to my mother; he
make a scene if I say hello to a
termer classmate On the street.
He has no cause to be jealous;
he was my first and only love.
1 love hits so much --but T can-
not convince him of it,
"We've had a lot of medical
expenses the past few years, and
1've taken a part-time job even-
ings to help us get out of debt. In-
stead of appreciating this, my
husband acctases the of working
so I can meet other men! This
is ridiculous. Atter e busy day,
with six rooms to clean and three
children to care for, I'd much
rather relax at home with my
fancily than rush out to work, If
there are men working in the
same department, I cannot help
it; 2 de no more than speak to
them
Always Loyal
"I have never cheated on him,
even before we were married
and he was away in service. His
accusations are driving us apart.
Besides, my love for him and my
children and my religious faith
would never allow me to be even
slightly interested in another
man. Why can't he see this?
"I hope you can 'help me. I do
net want to leave him, but I
am miserable and half crazy with
his questioning every move I
stake. I don't know hew much
longer I can take it. He claims
he Ioves inc. If he did, wouldn't
he believe me and trust me? I

r * Jealousy Is a disease that at-
"' tacks many husbands who feel
* inferior to their wives and
* who must have daily proof that
* they stand first in her affect-
* tion, her thoughts, and her
* plans, It cannot always be
* permanently cured; hut it can
• be modified by a wife's ht-
* creased attentions, by judicious
* flattery, by consulting. her
* husband en even trivial de-
''' visions, and in other ways
* showing him that he reigns
* supreme fn his home.
* A man's suspicions that his.
* wife could be interested in
" other men is perhaps the most
* difficult assumption to cora-
* bat. He does not reason, he
" only fears. He believes his wife
* is so attractive that other males
* cannot help but look at her
'' twice and, doubting his abil-
• ity to hold her, he insults her
* by questioning her loyalty.
e You can help diminish your
" husband's suspicions by giving
" him all your attention when he
* is home, and by using tact.
>: Refrain, for instance, from
* mentioning that you saw your
"' sister yesterday. Tell your
" mother you will call her only
" during the day. Remind your
* husband that you cannot ig-
" none old friends you meet, and
* do not intend to. Encourage
<` the children to show their love
* for their father.
* If worse comes to worst.
* you may have to threaten to

you will not have to; but he
* must understand that his ;leaf-

I don't know how many of the

day catching flies for them, has

Please remit 28 cents poelage

Well, my song and dance this
past week has been mostly with
pickles, pears and tomatoes, with
a two -weeks' wash and an odd
meeting or two to attend thrown
in for good measure. Running'
around is just fine until the time
comes for catching up with the
work and then you begin to won-

avenues for conversation and an

other folk who at some time hays -

a travelling salesman who hap-
pens to read this column stopped
in with his wares, Apparentlt-
he has travelled quite a bit: knew
the places I hod been to -and a
good many others ---in fact he
told me of so many lovely and
interesting pines I really had

was able le settle tlr+.;• I amen

But finally I managed it

The same applies to fruit.

three wel'e sent to market. Two
of them were Ayrshires and one
was a Durham. All were about

between the Ayrshires and the
Durham was really striking. The
Durham was rolling in fat and
' weighed 30 pounds more than
his two companions, So I guess

---"it's the breed that counts:"
Also the sex, bull calves naturally
make better veal than their sis-

a male, which is rather unusual

Well . . I can understand the

of domesti animals upon which
to lavish affection and thus avoid

Beauty Secret
2,,DYens Old
If ever a man appreciated
loveliness in women it was Ovid,
the Roman poet, He not only
married three times before he
was thirty, but he wrote a book
on the art of love.
He believed that the plainest
woman could make herself beau-
tiful by using the right make-up.
And he spent a year writing a
volunne about cosmetics. There is
one of his 2,000 -year-old "recipes
for beauty."
"Learn from me the art of
imparting to your complexion a
dazzling whiteness, when your
delicate limbs shake off the tram-
mels of sleep," he wrote to the
young 'charmers of his day.
"Divest from its husk the bar-
ley brought by our vessels Irons
the Libyan fields. Take two
pounds of this barley with an
equal quantity of bean -flour, and
mix them with ten eggs. When
these ingredients have been dried
in the air, have them ground and
add the sixth part of a pound
of hartshorn....
"When the whole has been re-
duced to a fine flour, pass it
through a sieve and complete
the preparations with twelve
narcissus bulbs pounded in a
mortar, two ounces of gum, as
touch of Tuscan seed and eigh-
teen ounces of honey.

SUCCESSFUL CANDY BUSINESS
The youthful head el • suc-
cessful eendy business, Gilidys
Damon tiasabuua, finds it an in-
spiring eareer because sweets
bring enjoyment to so Litany peo-
ple, Mrs. Casabona is her own
most enthusiastic supporter, ex-
perimenting, eating, and serving
her 75 verities of handmade
chocolate candy centres with in-
terest, appreciation, and pleas-
ure.
Daeghter of Mrs. Bertha Da-
mon, one of Greater Cleveland's
melt respected restaurant names
for a generation, Mrs. Casabona
comes by her talent and train-
ing naturally, writes Mary Hirsch. -
field in The Christian Science
Monitor.
When she was still a teen-ager,,
she helped in her mother's res-
taurant, learning the bruai.ness,
Mrs. Damon employed a candy
maker, for she handled her own
line of chocolates, and her daugh-
ter was especially attentive to
the intricacies of that particular
job.
In 1945, Mrs. Casabona, who
had decided to take charge of
the candy department In her
mother's Cleveland Heights res-
taurant,- went back to Boston
and New York, for special candy
courses. Site also got several fac-
tory jobs to learn about choco-
late dipping.
Returning home she branched
out almost immediately into her
own operators and naturally the
first customer was her mother.
Today, throughout northern Ohio
there are 65 clubs and dining
rooms handling the Damon sil-
ver (white for mints) packages.
People visiting the store are
invited to go into the adjoining,
air-conditioned, spick-and-span
candy kitchen to see now the
delicacies are made and packed,
They are alto invited to "taste
ones"
Neighborhood youngsters are
delighted with that generous
custom. When they come in to
make a purchase and cannot be
satisfied with what is on display,
they as to look around the kitch-
en for something else and, of
course end up sampling.
There are from 18 to 42 em-
ployees, depending upon the sea-
son, including six chocolate dip-
pers and three packers, They
use 700 pounds of sugar weekly.
Every two months a new
confection is put on the market.
The two latest are black walnut
creams and almond paste mixed
with vanilla cream and a little
cinnamon.
Ever alert to ideas offered by
others. Mrs. Casabona always
pays tribute to an acquaintance
for her best seller, chocolate
covered marshrnellow, of which
about 125 pounds are made daily.
The acquaintance, unknown to
her at first, was a quiet man who
took an hour's street -car ride
one day to show her now to
make marshmallow, An em-
ployee of Mrs. Damon's had told
him how her daughter was start-
ing out, so he carate to offer a bit
of help.
Warthne rationing was still
in force but when he asked for
25 pounds of sugar, it was hand-
ed to !situ — nee howevter. With-
out misgivings
She watched hint attentively
and when he was through every
flat surface in the kitehen, ex-
cept the floor and ceiling. was
covered with marshmallow. In
fact the employees had to he
sent home for ''here was no room
for them to work.
Finally the marshmallows gen-
ius departed. Mrs. Casabona
looked at Mrs. Damon and ask-
ed, "What will I do with all this.
marshmallow?"
"Cover with chocolate," was
the prompt reply, and so the
best seller came into being.. At
present it can be had with toast-
ed cocnut or in vanilla, pepper-
mint, and pineapple flavors.
Employees are encouraged to
invent new concoctions and
when they do and one passes all
tests, the successful inventor is
put in charge of its production.

THE REASON WILY
A SCHOOL inspector was
questioning some boys, "Can you.
take your warm overcoats off?"
"Yes, sir."
"Can the bear take his warm
overcoat off?"
"No, sir."
"Why not."
This poser stet with a long
silence. Finally a little fellow
spoke up. "Please, sir, because
only God knows where the but-
tons are."
THE MORAL

"Yes," replied his wife, with a
