DOROTHY DIX SAYS-

Father’: Tyranny

Mature Sisters ilrgatl To Sack Freedom Escape Domination 0i‘ Parents

i

DEAR DOROTHY DIX: We are three sisters. I am the youngest. m Years old. unmarried, with a good job. One of my sisters is 30 and pNwidow. The other is 23 and divorced. Each of my sisters has a child. . e live at home with our parents, who treat us if we were children. We can't make a move witho t their permission. If we go to the movies and come back a few minutes late, we catch heck from them.

Don't you think the three of us are old enough to have some liberty without being bawled out? We have planned to leave our parents and set up a home of our own, but our father tells us that if we do we never can darken his doors again. But the situ- ation is getting so on our nerves that we feel we can't take it any longer. What shall we do?

THREE SISTERS.

P

ANSWER: I think that you will show that you are entirely lack- ing in plain, good, hard, common sense it you endure your tyrannical

parents running your lives any longer. You are all three of age. You are self-supporting. You have no desire to be wild women. So why shouldn't you enjoy thc freedom that you crave and to which you are vntitled?

“DRTH EFFORT

I know it will take some courage to defy your father and make a hreak for liberty, but it will be worth the price. And the pity of it is that you haven't had the nerve to leave long ago. Bu-t it will be easier than you think, though. for domestic tyrants .like your father, are all cowards. and when you call his bluff you will be surprised at how meek he will be.

I, personally, knew one man who killed two fine women to whom he was married by his brutality to them. but when he married a third wife, who simply told him where he got off and that she wouldn't stand for any of his nonsense, he became as docile as Mary's little lamb.

Try it. No woman needs to stand brutal treatment from any man if she has enough spunk to resent it.

DEAR. MISS DIX: I am a 31-year-old man with a good job and everybody says I am a good Joe. But my problem is this: I am divorc- ed and have the custody of my three children. Every girl I go with is fine until I tell her about the children, and when I do I, get the brushoff. Is it possible for a guy of my age to find someone who won't let the children stand in the way? Or should I forget women and take up checkers?

JO-JO

ANSWER: Well. Jo-Jo, you certainly are in a difficult position. but before you take up checkers as a life work I earnestly advise you to look about you at the available wife supply a bit more carefully. Per- haps you have been letting your eyes linger too long on the bobby- soxers. Of course, they are cute and attractive, but at their age a man of 31 seems practically in his dotage, and when he is further handicap- ped by three children you can easily see that all bets are off.

What you want is to do your wife-hunting among the girl bachelors

Ellen by Diary l? an 1nd Islndl Ila m

Judy is not taking too much in- terest in her surrounding. of late. At least this was evidenced by the letter Jeanie received from her yesterday. After inquiring about many old friends. and Island do- ings. she closed the missive with: "You see. I have no news at a1l— nothing of interest to write you. except that it's high time now to get the dinner!" "Now she might have mentioned what she was pre- paring?" Jeanie laughed. With what fine spirits she used to pre- pare the dinner for us at Alderloa! Not noiselessly at all but to a snatch of a song and in a manner which betokened her liking for the task. “We'd better put on a few extra potatoes, Mrs. Ellen." she would say. "goodness knows there's no scarcity of them in the cellar and you never know who is apt to come along—lt's funny like that on a farm isn't is? Just anybody may come and ‘thereby you may enter- tain angels unaware?’ she would chuckle. And later she would per- haps whisper to me in the pantry as we busied ourselves adding com- pany touches to the dishes. "Now what did I tell you, Mrs. Ellen--i really had a feeling that someone W115 60mins t0doy-and besides did you see Tabby washing herself on the front door-step? Then, I did. and it's a sure sign! Sho’ is I'm telling you!"

e o

And once when an itinerant

peddlar came to the door selling.

. I think it was a glue, a mix- ture that was guaranteed to mend china or glass or indeed a wide range of materials and since it was near to the dinner hour we in- vited him to remain for the meal. _And the poor old fellow, obviously battered and worn by the search- ing winds of fate and rather un- kempt from his way of living, ate hungrily, though gratefully, prais- ing much a pie of Judy's making. of which he ‘accepted the second piece. She laughed happily about it afterwards and asked: "Well, how did you like our angel?" And then slapping her own arm in a funny reproving way she had when she had found herself in error over something. or had a misfortune in

GLUTAMIO ACID A FOOD THAT HELPS US MENTHLLY

Everybody is interuied in health- a; good healtih is life's greatest human asset.

It was only natural when Banting and Best. discovered insulin. thus saving the lives of thousands of diabetics throughout the civilized world. we all felt an uplift. Similarly, when Minot and Murphy discovered thit liver would preserve life in that. former fatal disease, pernicious anemia. all the nations rejoiced.

We have been reading much about Bassﬁrlne Sulfate. as it brightens us mentally and removes physical fatigue. It has been very helpful in the treatment of over- weight and alcoholism. However. it is a stimulant, and a temporary one, however helpful. is still a stimulant.

It may surprise us then to leam. therefore. that a food or food sub- stance has been discovered that actually does freshen the brain and. what is more important. ap- pears to be most effective in those who are below normal mentally. We all have heard that protein in ﬁsh was a brain food. but re- search workers have found that brain tlssueﬁerives its nourishment not from proteins but from sugar- s. starch food. Thus. glutsmic acid now is being used in brain condi- tions. such as epilepsy in its var- ious for-ms.

In "Clinical Medicine." Dr. C. C. Pfelffer. Professor of Pharmacol- ogy. Illinois College of Medicine, Chicago. reviews an erperlmmt with glutarnic acid with rats. By the use of glutamlc acid. rats ran through s. maze more rapidly. ‘ Later. in a series of 69 mentally deficient children (1% to l7 years of age), the average rise in intel- ligence, after the use of glutasnlc acid for six months. was 7 points. The average gain in mental age was l3 months. or double what it would have been without glutsmic

acid.

In addition to the improvement in intelligence, a greater degree of emotional stability resulted. "Since milk contains 5 to 6 grains of glutamic acid per quart. the medical world will await with in- terest similar experiments when milk is used as the source of glut-
