I'm so exhausted if I walked past the bed and looked at it I'd fall asleep standing up. My husband is a wonderful person and a terrific father, He being good. Never do I hear a complaint because they have to wear their cousin's hand-me- downs or because there is no money for treats or Scout uni- forms, _ If I could get my hair done in a beauty shop and eat dinner out once in a while I'd think I was in heaven. Is this what life was meant to be?--TIRED Dear Tired: Only if you're lucky. Money and leisure time are two of the most over-rated commodities in the world. The only rich people I know who are contented are the hard-working ones. The idle rich are miser- able. They can't decide whether to take pills or more scotch to wouldn't think of spending a dime on himself. He always puts me and the children first. He week they take something out of his pay cheque. I don't think children for $6,000,000? Of course not. Many | millionaires would happily trade everything they have for a decent marriage and five wonderful kids. Dear Ann Landers: I have been working in this store for several months, I used to take the bus down to work every day and invariably I ran into a man who works in the same store. He lives near me and whenever I encountered him at the bus stop I was in for it, He talks incessantly and is a general pain in the neck. I bought a car a few weeks ago and thought, 'Hooray, I'm rid of Old Clattertrap," but no! such luck. When I see him) standing at the bus stop I can't pass him up. Every evening just as I'm putting on my hat and trying to sneak out the door he rushes over and says, "I'd sure | like a ride home." : I have mo reason to refuse to take him except that he gets on my nerves, I enjoy listening to the news on the car radio and!
