* * * THE CHRONICLE, Clinton, S. C, June 19, 1969—6-C Dear Sally BY SALLY SHAW DEAR SALLY: What do you think of the chances of a happy and compatible marriage between two persons of totally different tastes and hobbies? I’m a man who is nuts about sports of all kinds -- golfing, fishing, bowl ing, auto-racing, baseball, foot ball, and the like -- while my fiancee cares not one little bit about any of these things. She loves art, literature, the theater, and things like that--all of which is for the birds so far as I am concerned. So...how about this? OHIO DEAR OHIO: The essential in- fredient of any happy, success ful marriage is LOVE, not nec essarily a similarity of hobbies or interests. And along with love there must be tolerance and con sideration of both parties --an effort by both husband and wife to show at least an interest in the other’s hobbies and enthusiasms. DEAR SALLY: I’m a girlof23, and sometime ago I began sharing an apartment with a very good girl friend. I thought at first this was a good idea, in the interest of companionship and economy-- but now I have big doubts. She never helps with any of the house cleaning or cooking- - hasn’t done a lick of work either in the kitchen or with the vacuum cleaner and dustcloth. She even leaves her clothes and shoes strewed all over the place for me to pick up and put away. How can I cope with this situation? ROOMIE. DEAR ROOMIE: Have a good, heart-to-heart talk with your roommate immediately. Tell her you cannot possibly continue under the present arrangement unless she begins carrying her share of the load. If this doesn’t change her, move out, and find another roommate. DEAR SALLY: I'm a girl ofl7, and still don't have a boy friend. And I happen to know that the reason for this is that I;m too fat--about 30 to 40 pounds too fat. My doctor recommended a safe diet for me sometime ago, and I managed to pare off about ten pounds-but then found that I couldn't withstand the temp tations of all the delicious, calorie-loaded foods I like so much. Eve just about resigned myself to a life of being fat and being without a man. My Mom is very much distressed over my attitude and says I’ll eventually be sorry if I stick to it. What do ' you say? WEIGHTY PROBLEM. DEAR WEIGHTY: 1 say the same as your Mom. Granted, a reducing diet involves a lot of work and willpower, but the re sults are well worth it and you'll be MUCH happier, too -- healthier, more attractive, and with a greater amount of self- respect. DEAR SALLY: Just how does a girl cope with the questions of friends regarding a steady boy friend with whom she recently broke up? This boy and I dated for almost two years, friends got used to associating us with each other, and now, ever since we split up, I am constantly besieged with questions about him. It’s embarrassing, and I just can't bring myself to explaining in de tail the reasons for our breakup. Please advise me. UN ATTACHED.

How can I clean bronze or naments? A. These items should not be washed. Dust carefully, and follow with a wiping with a cloth moistened in paraffin oil. Polish with a chamois. Q. What’s the best way to wash out a chamois skin? A. Wash carefully in warm soapy water, don’t rinse the soap out, and press the chamois care fully on a flat surface to dry. Best not to hang the chamois in the air since this tends to make it hard and dry. Q. What is a good method of brightening chromium? A. By polishing with a dry cloth containing baking soda. Many other such tips on the care, cleaning, and polishing of all kinds of metals are included in my house hold-hints book. Q. How can I clean discolored brick walls? A. Dissolve an ounce of glue in a gallon of hot water, add a piece of alum about the size of an egg, plus a half-pound of Venetian red, and a pound of Spanish brown. Work this solution on the brick surface with a stiff brush, and your bricks should emerge from the treatment as bright as when new. Q. How can I remove spots from laminated plastic? A. Work areas covered with this plastic sometimes are spot ted by rust, grape juice, perma nent ink, dyes, etc., and it’s best not to use any abrasive cleaners, since these could damage the plastic. Instead, try using a sin gle-step auto cleaner-polish for the safe removal of these stains. Q. How can I make an oak stain? A. By mixing a quart of boil ed linseed oil, three gills of tur pentine, six tablespoons of raw umber, and six tablespoons of whiting. Q. What’s a good substitute hair shampoo when I’ve run out of the real thing? A. Men’s shaving cream makes a very good lather for the hair. Q. What is a good treatment for water-soaked leather shoes? A. Stuff the shoes with news paper or uncooked oatmeal, then let them dry away from radiators, stoves, or any kind of direct heat. After they have dried, rub over the leather with a raw potato- half before polishing, and this will help them to take on a good gloss. Q. How can I remedy deep, unsightly scratches on mahogany furniture? A. One simple, often-effective treatment consists of filling jh the scratches with tincture Of iodine, then applying furniture polish or wax, andpolishingweU.
