Lander Strictly business Dear Ann Landers have been beside myself with anxie ty since this stupid incident occurred two days ago work in small onegirl office and have been divorced for two years Last week we had an office party to celebrate five years in business My boss wife was present along with several other people This is what happened asked my boss as gag if could sit in his chair turn ed my head and patted him on what thought was his back Suddenly realized it was not his back was patting it was his behind could feel my face turn red and didnt know what to do 501 acted as if nothing happened know his wife saw it all because she was standing right beside him dont know if she realizes it was inadvertent or if she thinks we are fooling around They have what appears to be very good marriage have friendly relationship with my boss but its strictly business My question is this Should tell his wife how embarrass ed am or keep quiet Extremer Upset Dear Up Keep quiet He who excuses himself accuses himself Dear Ann Landers need someone who can be objective Icant Mostly feel guilty because wasnt better wife am also filled with rage was married to handsome man very outgoing and well liked was just the opposite let Dick know was doing him favor when accommodated him sexually because never got anything out of it did bedroom duty when he asked but as the years went by he asked less and less Three months ago after 28 years of marriage no children Dick died suddenly of heart attack learned last week that he had kept mistress The woman was an executive in large firm Im sure the affair was one of long standing The way found out about it was strange discovered key in my husbands wallet It had an address tag attached so went to see where it led When walked into love nest was shocked No one was at home sol looked around found receipts for gifts he had bought her and letters he had written when he was away on trips His pictures were all over the place didnt touch thing just left The woman has no idea was there Now am torn between wanting to tear her hair out for stealing what belonged to me and tearing out my own hair for being so blind Dicks mother is still living and dont want to ruin his reputation What should do No Identity Please Dear No 10 Do nothing Say nothing Its tall order but no good would come of exposing the past If you need to vent your anger or expiate your feelings of guilt talk to professional counsellor preferably per son who did not know Dick or you Dear Ann Ijust read that new method of birth control is being tried in Rome It is hypnosis According to one doctor who specializes in this technique he hypnotized 100 women and not single one of them got pregnant Please comment Big Dear Big would not depend on this technique unlessl loved children and wanted large family fimgfigmfiesl Surrounded with mystery If you want to get someones attention just say Marilyn ate everything she wanted and lost eight pounds in one week Ive seen it happen You could whisper it at wedding and the bride would turn around and say Do you retain water You could mention it in bank where robbery is in progress and the bandit would ask Did she have to give up booze Trust me those twelve little words could bring war to screeching halt have never seen nation so dietconscious have also never seen Marilyn She exists only in our minds visualize her stuffing pasta in her face having dessert for breakfast and setting the alarm to get up and eat throughout the night To date have collection of 180 diets which the Mythical Marilyn was supposed to have lost 1440 pounds on without feeling the least big hungry All are bizarre and surrounded with mystery No one has an explanation as to why these diets work but if you follow them to the letter you will lose pounds Theres the Tropicana diet where you are restricted to four fruits peaches cherries avocados and grapes You can eat as much of them as you want but only the pits Theres the Progressive Party Weight Loss diet where Marilyn starts out with an appetizer at one house the salad course at the next house and another home for the main course Then you pray your transmission goes before you can get to the house with dessert For the woman who has to cook every night for her family Marilyn lost weight on the eatwhatstickstothesidesof thep anskillet diet She lost on the Pasta IV diet She lost on the Hallelujah Junk Food diet and the Cheesecake Everyday during the months when oysters are in season At the supermarket the other day was talking to friend when another woman who could have been her own partner in bridge game interrupted our conversation and wanted to know on what aisle the bird seed was on We told her and she thanked us and said Incidentally my name is Marilyn Meaty dont care if she drops twenty pounds in week wont Pollys Pointers Brush screens to lift lint DEAR POLLY have no luck cleaning window screens so would like some ideas My big trouble is With lint and dog hair BETTY DEAR BETTY Try brushing the screens on both sides with stiff brush Take them down before trying to wash them and then use brush and suds Rinse with the garden hose and dry thoroughly before putting the screens back If the screening is not rustproof hurry the drying process along as quickly as possible POLLY DEAR POLLY We save all our wax milk cartons and stuff them with shredded newspaper leaving some strips hanging out the open end These make excellent starters for our fireplace or charcoal grill Another gas saver MRSSC DEAR POLLY Someone told me that baby bonnets could be washed in gentle soap solution and then stuffed With tissue paper to keep their shape while drying found this works perfectly DOROTHY DEAR POLLY Mrs wrote that she had trouble cleaning mirrors satisfactorily use half alcohol and half water in spray bottle and then shine With lintfree cloth They look good With very little effort This can also be used on kitchen appliances and on bathroom glass and chrome BJ DEAR POLLY Like Merrie was plagued With weeVils and tried everything to get rid of them Nothing worked until read that black pepper is the best thing for this put coarse black pepper under the shelf paper in the kitchen and also in the linen closet Since the weeVils even got in the clean linens It really works LIIAH DEAR READERS Leah is only one of several readers Who wrote to say they had good luck with black pepper POLLY
