II A FORUM ABOUT MATURE
A MAN AROUND THE HOUSE
Dear Miss Brookfield:
Some months ago my husband,
59 years old, retired after years
of working at his small business.
lie is in excellent health and
eventually phms to go into some
sort of part-time business. At the
moment, he claims he is enjoy-
ing his retirement. The trouble
is -I am not. Understand, I love
him, but having him around the
house underfoot all day is up-
setting my old routine. I am
accustomed to such things as a
coffee break and calls to friends
in between all the household
chores. My husband likes to fake
walks. I was never one for this
form of exercise, so we argue
about this all the time. I prefer
to let him walk while I stay
home. Can you offer any solu-
tion?
M.S.. Portland.
DEAR M.S. :
Remember the old saying, "It's
great to tmve a man around the
house'? Many women find their
husbands' retirement a trying
time, especially for the reasons
you cite. Time, plus joint efforts
to recognize each other's indivi-
dual needs, can work wonders.

NAGGING WIDOW
Dear Miss Brookfle|d:
I am a childless widow of 45
who was planning to marry
again. Now I may be doomed
to widowhood because the ro-
mance has definitely cooled,
thanks to my new and sour dis-
positioB. I wasn't like this before,
but lately I find myself being
depressed and irritable. My fi-
ance eems to be avoiding me.
I can laffm ,. withi .this

Can you help?
B.R., Los Angeles, Cal.
Dear B.R. :
For many women, the middle
years usher in a change of per-
sonality, with the onset of meno-
pause (charge of life). They be-
come depressed, anxious and ir-
ritable. The age at which meno-
pause occurs varies with differ-
ent women; but with menopause,
the ovaries stop producing the
hormone estrogen. This leads to
