LIGHT ON SUBJECT 1 DARKENING HAIR The latest news on the anti-gray hair vitamin is a bit spott , accord- hgtoDnWilliam Sebremmlcof the medical chiefs with the U. S Public Health Service. Nutrition science, he says has advanced -to the point where they can take a little white rat and turn its hair black or gray, but when the hair is changed back to its original color it comm in as spotty as a. leopard Cont. Dr. Sebrell touched on this in an- swcr to a question from the aud- ience at a health forum on “The Latest Discoveries in Nutrition." He told about one courageous woman who decided to try to change her beautiful gray hair back to its youthful color. Lo and behold, some of it changed and some of it didn't. Of course, if the scientists could manage a design of one intriguing gray streak. that would be scme- It's neither this nor that. So. Scbrelrs advice to the women is that if they wish to change the color of their hair, dye i1; and be done with it. The only trouble with that is. as many can say. theres no being dome with it! Now all this ‘may sound rathar pessimistic but’ it still doesn't pic- clude the posslbility that one day science will find the answer and let us all be decided blondcs or brun- ettes. And if that can be arranged, women won't mind gray hair be- cause they can take 1t or leave it, and very likely they will take the gray because it's so flatiering. It seems to me that Dr. SebrelYs remarks on the subject. are the fralnkcst to date.

For hard as your wife's petty tyranny is to endure. you could not be happy thinking of a lonely old woman sitting by her- self in a solitary house into which nobody ever goes and with no one even to nag. You would lie awake at night wondering what was hap- pening to her, if she was sick, with no one to even give her a drink of water or call a doctor. Or if “she was afraid. Or if, pBIhJ-W- the sil- ence got on her nerves until shc wanted to scream. It u easy to under- stand why you crave freedom from her continual fault-finding, but we can pay too high a price even for freedom. ‘mere are many women like your wife who make such a fetish of cleanliness that they sacrifice their familiw to it. It becomes a. kind of phobia. A book out of place. a rug with a spot on it, cigarette ashes on the floor’ spoil a whole day for them, and anyone who upsets their prescribed order commits a crime against them. They drive their hus- bands and children out of their homes and feel that they are justified in doing it. Unlucky is the man who marries a woman whose god is order. but if he is going to leave her he should do it before he gets so sorry for her, with her distorted outlook on life, that he can't do it. DEAR DOROTHY DIX: My husband and I didn't get along to- gether and he fell in love with another woman and wanted to nun-y her. I had three small children and was very angry with him. so I refused to give him one and practically forced him ic live with ma. After a year of fighting and arguing I told him to leave and get a divorce. which he did, for I had finally realized I was keeping six peo- ple from happiness. including myself. Now my husband visits the children regularly and he and I are good friends and he is vary kind and generous to us. I live in peace and my children are not so nervous as they were when we were always fighting and arguing. So I would like to tell the wives who refuse to give their husbands divorces, because of spite or jealousy, that they are making a mistake. MJRS. R. D. ANSWER: Divorce is always a tragic thing, but certainly no good pulipusc is served when a husband and wife who have come to hate each other force their mate to live with them. For hate is the most de- moralizing of all emotions. It brings out everything that is worst in human nature, all of the meanness and littleness and petty revenges, and no one who indulges in it can possibly be happy. Nor can children, rear- ed in a home in which the father and mother are at enmity, have any- thing but a. distorted view of life. DEAF.
