MY NEW 1942 ASTROLOGY
READINGS ARE READY

C. S.: I didn't have to force him to marry me but our marriage was rather hasty. After my baby was born I left him because he was so mean and so stingy and so unappreciative. He's just plain no good. I'm beginning to feel so lonely without him, I miss him so. Every morning I watch to see him pass by my window but haven't seen him face to face since I left him the last time. All the couples who were married around the time we were seem so happy. What's our trouble?

Ans.: The fault is not entirely with your husband. He proved that he wanted to do the right thing by you when he married you in the first place. It's true that he demands to know where every penny he gave you was spent, but that's only because he is "the saving type" and doesn't believe in spending his earnings as fast as it comes in. What you need is a job. When you find out how hard it is to make money, you will readily understand why your husband raised the dickens because he felt you were a poor manager and spent his money foolishly. Once you learn the value of a dollar, I'm sure that you and your husband can live together peacefully.

E. G. M.: I'm married, will be two years January, 1942. We stay with my step-father. We all get along like cats and dogs and my husband is good to me as a man can be at times. Would we do better if we were by ourselves or would he do more for me if we were housekeeping? Does he love me?

Ans.: I see no point in continuing to live under the same roof with your folks when there is a scrap going on all of the time. Of course you ought to start housekeeping. It's the only way you and your husband can hope to accumulate anything. Had you gone to housekeeping when you first married, you would now have most of your stuff paid for.

L. C.: I have a girl friend who is unmarried, pregnant, and who has left home. I have received one card from her, but no address on it. I asked her sister where she is at and she won't tell me. I feel as though I should write her, or get in touch with her because she was my best girl friend, and at this time I feel as though I should correspond with her.

Ans.: If you want to do something nice for your girl friend, then drop your search for her. It's the desire of your friend and her family that her present whereabouts be kept a secret. For her sake... keep the matter as quiet as possible. You will hear from her in due time. In the meantime prove your friendship by keeping mum.

M. B. N.: Which one of these lines of business would I be more successful in? Beauty Work, Rooming House, or open up a Spanish Cafe and Bar in my house? Thanking you very kindly in advance for your advice.

Ans.: The beauty work would be too costly for you to get into right now. It would take considerable training to prepare yourself for this work and another thing you just haven't the capital to put it over. The Spanish cafe and bar would cause you more trouble than it would be worth. My advice therefore is to concentrate on the job you know and understand... which is operating a rooming house.

Lonesome: I am a firm reader of your column and you tell some good things to girls. Once I was in love with a boy and he was going to marry me but it was my fault the reason he did not marry me. Will I ever get him back? He loves me and I love him. He has come back around me so I just 'pass off the time with him. I would like to have him all to myself one more time.

Ans.: That's impossible, so stop fooling yourself. He offered to marry you once and you refused... now he is married to another girl and you have no business coming between them. There are plenty of young men who would welcome your friendship... if you gave them half a chance. The success of your future is wrapped in new friendships not in this old flame of yours.
