thith he is sick Dear Ann Lenders At one time or another my husband has been convinced that he has had every disease that ever afflicted mankind If friend or relative comes down with something he must get detailed account of the symptoms Within hours he has most of them This is no small problem Weve missed some very nice social functions even trips because of Joes overactive imagination Also he telephones our family doctor at odd hours which is not only inconsiderate but embarrassing Can you suggest something that might help Joe be little more rationalHy chondriacs Wife Dear Wife Yes can

understand the signals they receive from their bodies It is not only ex tremely informative but reassuring It will also help educate everyone who goes for physical as to what should be done and why Physicians as well as lay people can learn lot from this book recommend it highly Dear Readers Remember the poem that began It you think you are beaten you are If you think you dare not you dont If you like to win but think you cant Its almost cinch you wont asked if anyone knew the author wanted to give him or her credit The response was staggering and strange Heres sampling From High Bluff Man Canada My uncle Shaw wrote the poem He was an amateur philosopher but much better than many who get paid Richmond Va My father McGill wrote it He was tx modest to claim credit Panama wrote that poem when was in high school It was quite shock to see it in your column after all these years Detroit Any fool knows that poem was written by Edgar Guest Treasure Island Fla That poem you inquired about was the work of Napoleon Hill People steal from him all the time BlW Racine Wis The unsung hero is Longene cker Its high time the world knew CH Dallas Tex The author you should praise is Paul Beari

actually saw thestate in its clear form and not as blur Frankly if it had been my husband who wrote that note he would have been lucky to be riding at all One word and Id have used him for hood ornament Its always amazing how simple it is to serve up justice when youre the waiter and not the customer That whole dreary story reminded me of an incident few years back when put my car in reverse one afternoon and prepared to leave parking spot at the hospital where had been visiting afriend Without any warning the parked car on my left jumped right in front of my right fender Within 30 seconds there were 15 people two barking dogs and policeman with the warmth of loiitius lilate taking down my statement saw the entire thing officer said man She threw the car in reverse and without so much as checking the rear view mirror or rolling down her window she backed out of there like liatmobile Did she attempt to leave note on the windshield ask ed the officer She said she didnt have pencil In that handbag she can barely lift she said she didnt have pencil How close would you say she was parked lo the car that was struck She couldnt have gotten gum wrapper between them May have your name sir Sure shes my wife The meetings of genetic mutations are always interesting But none are so sweet to contemplate as my lead foot mak ing contact with his lead bottom Pollys Pointers Wicker needs face lift DEAR ltllY Would you please tell me how to give wicker chairs face lift AllliII DEAR ABRIE frequent going over with the brush attachment on your vacuum will keep the dust out of those many crevices Wash with warm water with about tablespoon of ammonia added for each quart of water and rinse thoroughly with clear water had my wicker chairs that had been treated to countless coats of white paint stripped by professional furniture stripper to eliminate that flaking and peeling that often occurs When repainting use enamel paint It can be sprayed on or applied with brush that should always be full of paint and always stroked in the same direction My experience is that tremendous amount of spray paint is required making the job quite expensive Iear varnish could be used on natural wicker POLLY DEAR IIIY For year my husband kept promising to make sand box for the children but he never seemed to get the time Finally we came up with simple inexpensive solution that has worked well We bought fourfoot plastic molded play pool for $5 and filled it with 280 pounds of sand which cost us another $5 For cover to keep the rain out rounded the corners on an old plastic shower curtain to make circle The edges were turned under and on the sewing machine stitched casing Through this was run nonroll elastic It looks like giant shower cap and pulls all the way over the sand box to keep the rain out and to keep the sand from blowing away MARGE DEAR POLLY am an avid worker of crossword puzzles and have found that using red pencil or pen does wonders for those who have less than perfect eyesight BRADLEY DEAR POLLY use votive candle holders as containers for miniature flower arrangements They are great when using violets pansies and fuchias Also narrow mens belts make great replacements for worn purse handles RUBY DEAR POLLY My children do not like to finish the milk left in their cereal bowls when the cereal is gone So give each of them plastic straw to drink it and they think this is treat and drink it all BONNIE DEAR POLLY If you have old scarves in the drawer that you no lon er wear stitch two together and stuff with polyester fiber illing or old nylon hose They make pretty throw pillows They are also great to use for lining purses or tote bags or several could be stitched together to provide yardage to make drawstring skirt MMW
