G’I'Ofi DOROTHY DIX’S LETTER BOX Advice to the Domestic Girl Who Has N ever Been Proposed To—Why “Peace at Any Price” Is the Successful Wife’s Motto. Y DEAR MISS DI As far back as T can remember, my one aim in life has been to marr nd spend my entire life in making my family happy. (learned to sew. cook. keep house. and staved at home waiting for my mate to come along and find me. Now I am 26 and still waiting. All my old friends are married and have homes and babies of their own. I am the only old maid in the crowd, vet [ am the one who < hest fitted for matrimony Evervwhere 1 go. people sa) We cannot understand why vou have never married. You would make a man a wonderful wife.” No man asks me to be one, yet I am good-looking, intelligent and fond of all outdoor sports. Why is this? B 5 Why do men pass me up for flappers? Why do they prefer the girl who necks and kisses to the one who is a dignified lady? Why do men steer shy of a real woman who only asks the privilege of tending them. and helping them and making them happy homes, and wed a half-dressed doll who cannot sew on a button or boil an egg; who would not care for them if they were sick, and will divorce them for the first man who comes along with more money? OLD MAID “26." Answer: It seéms to me, my dear young lady, that you are taking an unduly pessimistic view of the situation, and certainly vour ideas savor of the early Victorian period instead of this day of grace 1926. To begin with, no woman is an old maid nowadays at 26. She is still a girl and has really just come to the time of life when she should begin thinking about marriage instead of having lost hope of getting married. In these frolicsome and vouthful times a woman doesn’t begin to think of herself as a spinster under 40, and not even her worst enemies accuse her of being one under 35. No cheer up. There's virtually no age limit on women now. You bemoan the fact that you are still single while all of your-girl friends rried and have homes and babies. I ask vou to look into each one of these homes, and in all candor see which of these women are happier and better placed than you are. Would vou exchange vour freedom for a husband who 18 a grouch or a tightwad, or a petticoat-chaser? Does struggling along on an insufficient income seem to vou a gay and joyous adventure? Does walking the colic with sickly babies appeal to vou as a delightful way to lspend vour nights? How many of your friends' husbande are still lovers? How many of them havé realized their dreams of married happiness? How many of them look as young or are as healthy as you? You see, my dear. that matrimony has its drawbacks as well as it advantages. It isn't all beer and skittles. When a woman marries she doesn’t pass into an earthly paradise. s Of course, that is a phase of the subject that you don't consider. It never occurs to you that you might get a brutal husband, or a shiftless one, or one with a mean disposition, and that you might be a thousand times worse off married than you are single. 80 why make yourself miserable because you aren't married? The world ia full of such a number of things besides matrimony. The unmarried woman can have her career, and the endless interest and excitement and thrill this brings her. She can make more money for herself than she will eyer have as ‘gflrrhd woman unless she is lucky enough to marry a rich man. She can set up her own home. So why worry if no man shows up with a wedding ring? DOROTHY DIX. v e e IDEAR DOROTHY DIX: Iam a young married woman with a husband I love, and who loves me dearly. but he simply wen't do a hand’s turn around the house. We have very little money, but we have some old furniture that we could make look very nice if he would only touch it up, but he won't do {t. All he wants to do is {0 read when he is at home. Can you tell me what I can do with him? VERY ANXIOUS. . Answer: Yes. That's an easy question to answer. Let him alone. Let him read in peace. instead, of nagging him about painting up the furniture and putting up a new sheif in the kitchen. Of coursé, vou are right in-thinking that he should help vou to do the best you can with your old stuff, and make your home attractive, but abstract right cuts no fce in matrimony.’ It is tact that does it. No man loves his wife hecause it Iz his duty to love her, or stays at home because it is the proper thing for him to do. He loves his wife hecause she is sweet and amiable and agreeablé to be with, and he stays at home because it Ia the pleasantest and most peaceful place he knows. Some men have the home-making instinct just as some women have it. ‘There is nothing they like hetter than pottering around the house, and they enjoy going on regular painting debauches. Other men hate the whole mechanism of home-making, and every time they hang a picture or put a new C. TUESDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1926 Your Baby and Mine BY MYRTLK MEYER FLDRED. Undernourishment. Mrs. W. O. R—When a bhaby 7 months old begins to wake up four and five times at night to be nursed, this is hecause he is no longer satis- fied with his daytime rations. He needs cow's milk added to his diet: vegetables and cereals. Please write to this department, inclosing a self- addressed and stamped envelope and ask for the weaning and feeding lgaflet. This answers you more fully than I can in the paper. | "Mrs. 1. N.~Your suggestion ahout lan item tacttully advising visitors that baby fsn‘t in the market for kisses has been noted in another ar- ticle. Of course it's a good idea. Babies are not ‘‘pupples, kittens or sawdust dolls,” as you put it, and shouldn’t be treated as such. Mrs. B. E. H—The overlarge abdo- men may be due to continued over- feeding. It usually is, though seme- times undernourished ' children with ow an abnormally large ) Twenty-one ounces of milk dafly is all the milk your baby needs at her weight and age, and so you are giving her more than neces- sarv. Also the formula needs sugar, which you did not mention. Sugges- tions for figuring formulas according to age and weight are included in the No. 3 leaflet. Have you read this carefully? The vegetables, orange fuice, cereal and cod liver ofl are all right now, and the right formula will do ali one can do to prevent rickets, not forgetting, of course, the neces- sity for sunlight. . C. F. G.—At 20 months old the child would be much better on a three-meal-a-day schedule. Give the tarina with the 7 o'clock breakfast. Give orange julce, as you are doing, and feed the 3 o'clock meal at 12. If the child is hungry before.its 6 o'clock jdinner, a_piece of bread and jelly, a glass of milk or some fruit wi perfectly all right to give.
