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.

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.

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.
