WILSON WOODHOW "Dear Mrs. Woodrcsr: I am a; young girl married a short time. My husband's business keeps him from early in the mornin# until late in the evening. Durytg his absence he does not allow me to go anywhere, not even with rtiy own family. I have tried having several heart-to-heart talks wife him on the subject. But when I try this he gets into such a rage and cirses so that I am ashamed to face fee neighbors the next day. My health is affected l>y the lack of fresh air nd I am be coming very delicate. My husband is a good provider, and I have fash ionable clothes. "He stays out when ke wants to. having a good time; b(t I can do nothing, not even the least little things, without consultirg him. Still he says he loves me ani would not lose me for anything. "Is this happiness? No friends, no change, no fresh air, no money.* Only a home, nice clones and a jealous man. Do you tkink this is love? Or does any one? I am not complaining, only 1 woulc like some one else's point of view. "CONSTANT READER." Since you have asked me for my opinion. I hasten to give it to you. > Your husband's views are quite out . of date. They do not belfrng to this j day and age. He apparently wants a slave, and not a wife is com panion and comrade. Yoi may take it for granted that a person who is' not willing to permit atother the freedom he takes for hlmsdf, is him-! self enslaved. That is quite obvious I in your husband's case. He is the! , slave of his own benightet jealousy. , My dear girl, you are young, and considering the circumstances tin- , der which you live, it is no wonder fiat you are unhappy. If your state ment of the case is correct, your husband has no thought or care for you or your own best Intei^sts. Suppose after five or ten years of 'his kind of life he forces you to live, he should die? Whtl would happen to you? You would be ahout as w?ll fitted j to cope with life of the world as an ancient Chinese lady with her tiny, useless crippled .feet. Among the capable, self-reliant women of to day, you would be like a pltnt that has been kept in a dark cellar and suddenly set out in a bed of hardy garden flowers. The sort of life you are now liv ing is inevitably going to stunt your ntellect and your initiative, your heart and your soul. You win grad lally lose the power to think tnd act' f for yourself. Are you content to be a wonan or t a leash? "Is this happiness?" Sever! i It is degradation. "Is this ove?" t Never! It is the desecration of love, i ""I am not complaining." My dear girl, do not take that humble sub missive attitude. Complain at the top of your voice. What if the reigh-j bors do hear your husband cuising?; It is he who should be humil ated, i not you. i You are not a toy dog. Yot are a woman with your inalienable rghts to life, liberty and the pursuit of lap- J piness. A home and good clcthes ! are very nice things indeed: but fiere 1 are some things better—self-resject, 1 the knowledge that one can stant on one's own feet and has the eqiip-li ment t& earn one's own living nd' choose one's own friends and is coor-' ageous enough to refuse to be h?! victim of another's tyrannical whins i and impulses. If you keep on in the same nit you are in now. you will -beconei more and more afraid of life. Tint is a calamitous state of mind. i People are constantly repressing! t their real desires and hopes, becausj' t they are afraid of taking the ne a step. But the victor's crown is never awarded to the timid and over-cau tious. It goes to the bold and posi-j tive natures, to the people who kno\r e what they want, and go out deter-j| n ined to get it fairly and honestly <, no matter what the obstacles in theU: way may be. L Why do you not say something of j this kind to your husband: j,' "I don't care how you curse and - rave, nor whether the neighbors hear r you or not. That is nothing to me. t 1 have something to say to you, and you might as well listen like a rea sonable being and not like a mad-J man, for I am going to say It. "Like any other normal woman, j t I want love and a home. But I re- s fuse to continue to accept them on j t the only terms you offer. Therefore. until you are willing to grant these'r blessings on decent, reasonable, sane It I PAKRQ, PAKRO SEEDTAPE | J: V'3 tancc apirt to ,nsUre sturdy growth, j■ ! ' i~ i ~*i in a thin tissue tape.

Abo\tt a year ago I met a young lady two years my junior, and although I admired her immensely, I did not fall in love I with acquaintance was not very oldT when she confessed that she was desperately in love with me and has been that way for years, j long before she had been introduced to me. for she had known me by ! sight for many years. I have tried j to talk reason and explain, but of no : avail. I have tried for a year to learn i to love her. Now®her parents are be ; ginning to wonder about the results of such procedure, and ofttimes have hinted at what my intentions are. Can I tell them the truth? Or ought a man marry out of sympathy? I could do almost anything to prevent the pains and heartache which will be sure to follow our parting. If I marry her, and by some trick of fate I should fall in love with someone else, what then? Can you help me? B. M. This girl has not much chance of happiness as the wife of a man who does not care for her. Of course if you did marry her she would have the immediate satisfaction of get ting what she wants. Possibly you do not know w-hat love is. If you are looking for a romantic affair of the chills and fever sort and want to dream of a girl by night and tremble at the thought of her by day, per haps this attitude of yours is dis guising from your own heart its real feelings for the girl you want to be so careful to guard from unhappl ness. If you really think that mar riage to her is all wrong for you. it will be equally all wrong for her. In that case you had better have a plain talk with her parents. FORGET HIM Dear Miss Fairfax: I am nineteen, my friend is the same age. We are both very much in love with the same man, but we | cannot tell which of us he likes the better. He makes love to both or us when we are alone with, him, j and says the same things to us both, j Now what we want to know is. ougnt j one of us to break away from him?j Or what ought to be done? We are both very unhappy, as we are good friends and yet don't want to give him up. • TWO ANXIOUS GIRLS. What is more important than keeping the "affection" of this ex pert wooer is for you two girls to re tain your happy intimacy with each other. He doesn't show any more admiration and individuality than character in making love to two friends and in the same terms. Don't you think he is rather a joke and quite unworthy your honoring him with a serious thought? Even if you do insist on regarding him seriously, it must be to see that neither of you can count on him and that there may be two or twice two others who are also receiving his "favors." Why not have a little fun with him and teach him a lesson at the same time? One of you invite him over and sur-! prise htm with the other and a lit tle news in regard to the results of your conjuring notes. , Leave at Once Dear Miss Fairfax: j I am twenty-five. My employer.

Washington Experts Predict Foch Will Hit Hun Line Soon , Washington, April 20.—Events on I the western battlefront are shaping j themselves, officers here believe, not only for the defeat of the German drive, but for a counter offensive by General Foch's armies that may open the road to an allied .military victory. A wave of optimism has swept over not only American officials, but military men of Allied missions In Washington. Some of them think it will be some days yet before General Foch can complete his troop disposi tions for a great thrust at the enemy, but others look for word that he has struck at any time. The news from the battlefront was distinctly cheering. The British lines in the hatdstricken Flanders front were holding firmly. French rein forcements had arrived there making practically certain that the German drive toward the channel ports from | that direction had been defeated. At the same time official announce ment came from Rome that Italian troops were already pouring into France to share in.the crucial strug gle there. This added to the optim ism. for it means that the fighting men of France, Italy, Great Britain, America, Belgium, Portugal and the Russian units are being massed tin- ! der one leader for a mighty blow when the time comes. There were many indications to day of increased pressure toward getting American troops overseas In time to share fully in the battles this summer upon which may rest the final issue. Secretary Baker conferred for several hours with President Wil son, the real Cabinet meeting being i canceled' to clear the way for the conference, which had to do with both Immediate and future steps for accelerating American participation lin the struggle.
