Dorothy Dix Says-

Nuptial. Advisors

iilrl Should Ignore Dlssuadars To Ideal Marital Prospects

\

DEAR. 1111155 DLX: I uni very much in love with a iiian ln whom I see the perfect husband. He is not. good-looking and I am. Also. he is ten years older than I aim. He loves nie very much and we plan to get. married. but neighbors and relations tell me that he 5s not the man for me on account of the difference in our ages,

This makes lilni very unhappy. for lie says he loves me so much he doesn't want to ruin my life. What shall we do, marry or not?

DOUBTFUL

ANSWER: The first thing I should advise you

to do is to quit listening to the awful warnings that the buttinskies are pouring into your ears. You are the ones who are contemplating marriage. not your sisters nor your cousins not your aunts. and 1f you two suit each other, it is nobody else's busi- iicss. _ _'I‘he success of a marriage depends entirely upon the taste of the individual. A man might have every virtue iii the world, but ‘if there was nothing m him that appealed to you and if you didn't enjoy being together. your marriage would be an utter fiilitrc. A girl might be pretty as a picture. and as amiable as Patient Griselda. and a good cook, yet she might bore the maii she married so that he simply couldn't stand her.

MAKE OWN CHOICE

Also. the reason why our friends and relatives and mothers have no right to try to pick out our husbands and wives for us is because different natures click iii different ways, The man who might be one girl's dream husband would be another ones nightmare, and the wo- man who might be the ideal wife for one maii might drive another maii to drink. So pick out your own medicine. You are the one who has to take it.

As for the ten years difference between you and your fiance. don't giie it another thought except to be ihaiiikful that you are getting a maii who knous uliat he wants in a Vili“ and is ready Lu settle down. Also. you have another lrtiiii-p card. It i5 alivays lo the wife's ad- vantage to be better looking than her litisbaiicl. It keeps of! the flirta- tious women and makes the man think he is some picker.

DEAR. DOROTHY DIX: I have Just gotten itiarricd. Will you please tell iue ivliei-c I tam go to learn llC)\\' to cook and got recipes. I know how to cook a little. how t.) Hill-ii‘ lJlGS, or fry chicken. or boil noodles. My mother would ll€\'f‘l‘ let me cook. and in high school all they ever taught us was how to make muffins. _ _ ANXIOUS BRIDE

ANSWER: You are a wise girl to begin your married life by learn- ing how to cook, for there lSGIII) suijer waygof kc ‘ping :1 husband's lovc than by feeding him‘. Theflialppy lioiiiisnre those in which a wife keeps a clean hearth and a good table. The Other Woman that every wife has to be afraid of is not the beauteous blonde. lt. is the woman who is a good cook. . _

There is no mystery about learning how to cook. Any woman who can read and who has energy and industry can get a good Cook Book and learn how to cook in a dozen easy lessons. There are many good Cook Books on the market. Buy the one that looks the simplest and that contains the recipes for the klnd of food that. you are accustomed to and that your husband likes. and go to it.

But lt is my opinion that any mother who doesn't teach her daugh- ters how to cook fails in her duty and commits a ‘crime against them and the unfortunate men who have to eat their amateur dishes.

DEAR. ME DIX: A widower and I are in love with each other and are thinkirx of marrying. but I have two children and he has two children and there is every likelihood that we might have other chil- dren. Do you think we could be happy with these children who do not agree? Would it cause friction between us? '

WORRIED

ANSWER: Nothing short of a miracle would enable three. or even two, different sets of children to live together iii peace aiid-‘harmony, and unless you are of an adventurous nature I advise you not to try it. I once heard a badgered woman call out to her husband: “John, your children and my children are beating up uur children"

Ellen ’s Diary

l1 an Island Issuer's Will mesons: Over eastern rims the sun sp- peared this morning and was most welcome after days of storm and Ifeyness. Today we questioned each other and ourselves u bit un- comfortably: "Nor why did we sc- cept two invitations to dinner yes- terday?" and knew even though appetites were fickle that we would not have had it otherwise so d».- ligiitful our New “Bar's Day had been. In showers of white dust ev- ergreens shed their burdens of snow today and took on their dark friendly color; the Straits lay dark too, but beyond it in the clearness one caught a promise of continued fair weather In the faint outline of the mainland there. ‘Praffic increased on the road. pedestrians. cars and trucks, de- livery vans to the country stores lean now of certain supplies due to the storms, and teams moved, odd ones to the musical tlnkle of bells. "Do you hear. Ellen?" sister to me asked. "Hear?" I repeated coming hastily to an open door. “The bells" she replied smiling broadly "the sleigh-bells!" I sut- pect wrapped lovingly and tied a- bout wlth a bright ribbon of meni- ory, she has kept the sound of Winter sleigh bells of her younger days sacred through her years of absence from the Island.

vvv‘

For this is a visiting sister. come fmm her home in The States es- pecially lo spend the Christmas season with “the old folks at liomt." and other relatives and friends. Drawn thither doubtless by a Wiall to renew memories or perhaps to prove them quite so as wonderful as she had pictured or maybe Lu find out if they had been only er» hanced by absence and distance. A slight blue-eyed lady this is. with now that I think of it next tr. white hair. Not given from age nor yet. "grew lt svliite in a single night" but. thrust perhaps by an over-conscientious devotion to her duties as a Graduate Nurse over a number of years. Happy. direct in her opinions. and. talented in many directions I found her an m- terestlrig companion those sno-v- bound days though on occasion her inclination to continue her profes- sionai “researclfl was harroiviiig. "Now this" she would say pear- ing into the depths of a newly washed jug at dish-washing time. impacting it critically “has it been scalded?" Or with lifted brows in the periods of cleaning: "I pfP- sume you dusted the chairs and tables? The legs too?" And when I mixed a pan of biscuits, and with much suspicion in her eye: “How many times did you slft that flour?” May my favorable replies to all not ever be held against m"! Pleasant indeed ,the recent days have been for me visiting with t: is sister and parents in the home of my girlhood. .

A bevy of pigeons in soft blucs shading prettily to silvery greys like sunllt Sprbig skies, or a rose- beigh-iike a loved old gown. flew to the lawn this morning. Impor- tantly they moved along a path there then disturbed by a passing machine, flew away on startled wings. At home at Aiderlea, drifts cf sparrows would be settling an the old rose bush or be perched in a flock high up in the birch. I said then to myself as my thoughts spanned the snowy distance. The small engine would be puffing, sending water in a steady stream to fill this barrel or that punch- eon for the indoor watering of certain of the stock. The horses would follow the path to the stream. snowy now I expected and the yards too would be changed in appearance since the stormy weather. . ‘

O

However I found Alderlea had

‘ changed very little in my absence.

True there were new drifts about y-ards and meadows but it still sat cosily on the slope. From the libi- top, I noted the work at hand. James appeared at a barn-doorway with a huge armful of straw and made his way to a piseery; JWK was carrying sacks from a farm sleigh to a barn while “our own mare" awaited his return in the yard. There had been. I knew. a grist of crushing taken to and from the mill. There perhaps had been no imminent need of it. but all the same. James would see to it that it was done "in case of sn- other snow storm. you know." Lines bf dark smoke issued from the chimneys of both houses, 1nd I thought ours was not nearly so lonely now as the one which i had left to go a-vislting. Indoors was snug, from James’ "light house- keeping" which consisted of sleep- ing at home and eating at the house across the lane. though a pot of mall marlgolds of Jamie's Fall planting hung heads deject- cdly yet brightened perceptlbly when we drank together. Pleasant my visit to the home of my girl- hood has been, but exceedingly niec it is to be "hame again."

Until tomorrow - Diary -Good- nlght. -

A IDIPLI TEST FOB MIGIAEI

I vrrlte frequently about migraine -ene sided heartache-because. des- pite tlic pain, nausea and vomiting, the great majority of cases can get relief by the use of ergotanune tan-- trate t2 to 4 milligrams) under the tongue at the onset of the attack. As some cases of migraine have pain on both sides of the head and some do not have the nausea and vomiting, the physician may be in doubt as to whether the patient ls suffering xvii-h migraine. In the "Journal of tihe American Medical Association." Drs. Max T. lchnltlre: and Maurice A. Salinit- ker, Toledo. report their test for migraine which they have been using since 1940. The patient is imade to rest quietly on the examin- ing table with the cuff of the blood- pressui-e instrument in place. A headache should not be present When the txt is begun. To prevent any effect upon the patients mind, he is not told that the physician is going to attempt to bring on a headache. After the blood pressure amd rest- ing pulse have been recorded. the patient is given two tablets of 1/100 grain size of nitroglycerin (the hypodermic tablet preferred), which constitutes 1/50 grain under the tongue. In the first two minutes there will be little or no change in the ‘pulse, but the blood pFEFSUPQ iznay rise slightly in some patient. Between the second and fourth minutes the pulse will rise. the blond pressure will usually drop to below the level when the patient was resting. and the patient will begin to complain of symptoms. The phvsiclan will engage him in éonversatlon and he will describe his headache and other symptoms. and whethéfr ‘the headache is the same as his usual headache. 'I'ha patient may then be asked to com- pare the sensation produced by the tablets with ihe headache of his usual complaint. Thls“ls"a"sl.myrie method of finding out whether m

"mot the headache is migraine.

After the attack. the pain ‘is reliev- ed by the usual methods.

Drs. Schnltker state that this done. 1/50 grain of nitroglycerin under the tongue. ls safe with the vast majority of cases but may be too large in a few cases. In all cases. a physician should make this test for migraine.
