and he's been in the hospital
nine times because of it, Be had
always drunk some, but now he
is growing worse. I've managed
to hold on to my position and
take care of all obligations, in-
cluding his debts.
"I took all this ✓chile my son
was growing up, (This is not
the first job I had to get,) I've
tried having whiskey in the
house, but in a Sunday after-
noon the whole quart is gone,
I've kept beer in the icebox,
but, he prefers stopping at My -
erne on the way home.
"When aur son was younger
and my sister could stay with
.hint, I tried sitting in taverns
with my husband for hours,
drinking yokes and saying noth-
ing. Now our boy is growing
up; if I didn't conte straight
home from work there Wouldn't
be any parent home with him.
(I can't plan much for him as
things are, fa/ we sperm most
of our time waiting for his
Dade I've pleaded with my
husband- to stop drinking (he
calfs that nagging) but he re-
fuses to take the cure or even
discuss it. I've asked hint to
stop for me a` work and we'ei
come home, together; that didn't
work, and I'll not ask him
again, I've even left him, and
then he lands in the hospital and
pleads with me to come home,
Il has been a mistake to take
him back too soon.
"He has his points. He is
good. -hearted; cooks dinner now
and then (he likes to) and has
fine qualities all along the line,
for which I Faye praised him
regularly. Ilut 1 ant growing
weary of all the obligations 1
have to meet because so much
money goes fete taverns.
"What shall I do? If I make
a change I'm afraid this tune
it will be permanent. It de-
serves long consideration, and
I'm not one to give up easily,
But I've had year;, of it, and
I'ni no further ahead than I

An, you scared of snakes? An
cfxperl new World ilealth
Organization report peeves that
you ought to be, (Every week.
somewhere in the world, at,
least 1,001 people die of snake
bite. In remote villages and
jungles hundreds more die in
agony before they can be
brought to medical attention.
Formidable among killei
snakes, the African spatting
cobra is able to hurl its venom
accurately into a man's face
from a striking distance of
twelve feet, The highly poison
ous gaboon viper brings almost
instant death as soon as it
strikes a native's bare foot, Al-
together, of the world's 2,500
different kinds of snakes, 200
are dangerous to man.
Not long ago a soldier brought
a cobra home from Malaya —
where snakebite deaths are
highest of all—but he made sure
first that the poisonous fangs
had been removed. Ilis family
called it "Cyril"' and made the
reptile a domestic pet. Then
one day they happened to show
11 to a zoologist—and Cyril was
hurriedly cased and rushed to
the zoo,
Unlcnown to the family the
fangs had grown again and the
•
poison sacs were tail. The•sol•
titer's family had been toying
for weeks with death!!
Yei many people stake: pets
of pythons, boa -constrictor's and
even rattlesnakes. A elute form-
eel for these serpent -minded folk
has hundreds of members. One
enthusiast breeds pythons for
profit. A python can lay up to
90 eggs at a sitting and a three -
tool speeifnen is worth 50.
!tearing them is tricky, how-
ever, With only ane lung apiece
snakes are peculiarly liable to
'flu and pneumonia. A snake -
dancer's full-grown python fell
ill with 'flu and, faced with tate
cancellation of her music -hall
bookings throughout Britain, she
consulted the highest experts.
"Keep him warm! was all
they could advise. So she put
the python to• bed with hot-
water bottles, then climbed in
alongside him for extra warmth,
stayed' in bed a fortnight -and
restored him to. health.
I1 you see a snake it's cam -
forting to know that it can
hardly see you. Nor cart it hear,
though snake charmers are
aware that snakes are acutely
sensitive to vibrations. Their
:forked tongues actually sense
the vibrations in the air and,
coupled with their strong sense
of smell, enable them to find
their food.
BEAT( TROUBLE - This Rhode
Island Red rooster is a strange
sight with a protruding lower
beak and distorted upper
bent(. Because he can't pick
food off the ground, he is fed
from o deep container.
In the main, however, British
snakes are useful creatures,
helpful to the farmer in destroy-
, ing mice, rats, rabbits and
other pests. Of ot,r three native
'species only the adder is
poisonous -- and only seven
people have died of adder -bite
in the last fifty years!

Pointer Joe Points Out
By CCAL.EXI MONCRIEr
NEA Steil' 'Correspondent
Dallas, Tex. — (NEA) -- Jo,
a pointer, is a doggoned good
dog. Only thing is, he's self-
conscious around crowds; they
embarrass him.
A water main broke in Jo's
neighborhood recently,. and the
houses on his street were with-
out water for a couple of days.
No one seemed to want to do
anything about it until Jo got
thirsty and his 16 year-old mis-
tress, Mary Ellen Reeves, call-
ed the newspapers. That got ac-
tion, It also caused Jo no end
of trouble.
A swarm of newspaper men
and photographers, TV Camera-
men and radio experts descend-
ed upon the guiet little sub -
mei with lets of -clatter and
yackety-yuck. They started in
shooting pictures of Mary Ellen
totin' water from every angle.
J0 took a look around to see
what was going on, then tried
to slip away. He didn't quite
make it; some sharp-eyed re-
porter spotted him and Mary
Ellen, to please the crowd,
started trying to get Jo to per-
form for the working press and
the neighbors.
Now J0, being self-conscious
and alI, couldn't understand
what all the fuss was about.
So, finally, getting awfully tired
of those people looking at him,
he just laid down on the grass
and covered his face with a big
paw,
"Just because he does that,"
Mary Ellen quickly pointed out,
"is no reason to think he isn't
a good dog: he's just shy and
bashful around crowds and
strangers, Been that way most
all his life.
"You go hunting with Jo," she
added. "He points those quail
real good and all you have to
do is just watch him and you
know right where those birds
are. He just doesn't miss Yes,
sir, he's a good dog!
"He's a retriever, too ---what
you call a 'forced retriever.'
Take him duck hunting, shoot
a duck and if you command
him, he'll go get it, Learned
it quail hunting."
Mary Ellen's father, Frank
Reeves, adds, "Even though Jo
is bashful around crowds, when
you take him hunting he's one
of the best in the business. It
doesn't make any difference
how large the crowd of hunters,
he's right at home with them
and will hunt for any one of
then! "

The Parisian model at left won't
need that shotgun if she's go-
ing man -hunting in this striking
dark -green wool ensemble.
Draped over the gun is the high -

doux, which will complete her
costume for stormy - weather
hunting out of doors. However,
if she's hunting the man pictur..

bagging him until the year
2000. At least so maintains
the French chapter of the Inter-
national Federation of Master

They dreamed up this 21st Cen-
