‘g DOROTHY nix SAYS- Too Fat

Bachelor Believes Love Can't

Survive Added ,Poundage

DEAR MISS DIX: Don't you think that a man who marries in pretty slim girl. who gorges herself on food and gets fat as soon as site has sofcly landed her man. has ll right to feel that he has been taken in under false representations of the goods he was investing his all in? I think that a woman who has not enough self-control to deny her appetite has no right to complain if her husband has not enough self-control to keep from running after slim young women.

BACHELOR

ANSWER: Fat is a matter of taste. In the Orient beauty is assessed by the pound. and the more a woman weighs. the more beautiful and alluring she is esteemed. It is only among Western people that bones are more admired than flesh. rind that the living skeleton has become tnc standard type of beauty to which all women aspire.

MEN'S TASTE AT FAULT

Now obesity is one thing and a moderate and decent covering for the body's frzimcwork is another thing. and personally I not only de- plore mcn‘s taste in preferring acute angles to gracious curves but I think that they make a great mistake in picking out a bait-of-bones type of girl for a wife. and in making their middle-aged wives feel that tinless they lose their weight they will lose their jobs as wives.

The girl with the willowy figure is the result of either ill health and a nervous and neurotic temperament, or else scmlstarvation, and in either case the man who marries her is likely not only to Kct a warrior. but a doctor's bill. and to have is wife who will break down under the wear and learnt marI'led.,1lf9-

On the other hand. the plump girl is generally strong and healthy and good-natured and easy-going and comfortable to Uve with. Fat people are nearly always jolly.

It is ii matter of common knowledge that nothing is so soothing to the nerves and so softening to the heart. that nothing fills one with such zimitibilliy and peace and K005 W" ‘OWEN 3“ ‘he W071‘! "5 plenty of good food. And so why any man would ever encourage N5 wife to go on n diet passes comprehension. Far. far better a wife who is a household angel than a perfect “36".

DEAR MISS DIX: My husband is past 60. I am 50. We have been married thirty years. lleve a family of children. all married and gone. Our married life has been happy and perfectly congenial until of late when I have found out that my husband is unfaithful. His business does not require all of his time now so he has begun playing around with young girls. I wish I could hate him. but he has be- come a part of my life and I could not exist without him. and I do not want my children to have the disgrace of a divorce and a broken

h . C ' t ll th best thing to do? °'"° an 5°" 9 me e AWORRIED WIFE

ANSWER: Yes. Just have patience. Try to think of your husband as being afflicted with a temporary spell of insanity that he will 86! over if you will just wait a while. For, in reality. that is what is hep- penlng to him. A lot of men have the some trouble. It is what you might call ll delusion of youth that they get when they are about your husband’; age, and it makes them want to jump the bars and kick ufl their heels and run with the coils and otherwise not devilish. And the only cure for ii’ is time. Give them that and they recover com- plclcly and are ashamed and sorry. and they never have a second at- tack. lr, is enough to disgust any wife as well as break her heart. but she makes in mistake if she punishes him n: he deserves by Bfilllnfi a divorce. Because a divorce brings the old wife no happiness. She is too old to readjust her life or find new Interests.

‘DEAR MISS DIX: I am deeply in love ivilh a young ninn who is just :1 poor. hnrrl-working boy. while I am i-I girl who has hnd every indulgence. Would you ‘advise me to marry this young man, or would it be best for me to marry a man who could give me the things that

I now have? PEGGY

ANSWER: It depends altogether on what sort of girl you are. Peggy. If you are one of the women who think more of a man than you do of n pocketbook. then marry your poor man.

But don't do It unless you are a good sport and are going to be able in make sacrifices without whining. and work without consider- ing yourself a martyr.

CONVULSIVE DISORDER NEW NADIE FOR EPILEPSY

I write often about epllcpsy be- cause, as with asthma. in my stud- ent days. we did not know the cause of epilepsy nor how to treat it. Keeping the patient from hurt.- ing himself during an attack and preventing his biting his tongue by putting a. piece of wood or a handkerchief between his teeth was the extent of his treatment. Today, so much more is known about epilepsy that most patients now under treatment are kept free of attacks.

In "Post-Graduate Medicine." Drs. Robert L Meller. and Joseph A. Resch. University of Mimesota Medical school, Minneapolis. des- crlbe and rename epdevpsy as "I convulsive disorder." A convulsive disorder is a state produced by In abnormal, excessive ne-urol (nerve) discharge within the central ‘ner- vous system.

These physicians believe that the new name "3 oonvulslvo dis- order" is to be preferred to the name epilepsy for two reason!- l-‘irsi, the name epilepsy to the average person is that of s hor- rl.ble and incurable disease. Sec- ond, here is the danger of accept- ing the name epilepsy as a disease in itself rather than ii symptcm of some underlying disturbance of the nervous system, the cause of which 15 also to be listed to make the condition or disease complete.
