THE CHRONICLE, Clinton, S. C., September 4, 196&-5-B Dear Sally BY SALLY SHAW DEAR SALLY: I'm a married woman of 39, and very much con cerned about my unmarried kid brother. He has been chasing around with a young, red-headed divorcee -- entirely the wrong kind of woman for him, and I’m sure she goes with him only be cause be happens to be well fixed financially and can spend a lot of money on good times for her. I’ve tried my best to rea son with him, but he refuses to accept the fact that my eight years of seniority over him should make me more qualified than he to judge such things. What else can I do to get across to him? BIG SETER. DEAR BIG SETER: Your bro ther at 31 is NOT "a kid," and if at this age be|till doesn’t know how to manage mis life, then he never will. In any event, my ad vice to you is to stay out of this and let him live his life as he pleases. DEAR SALLY: I am in love with a fine young man of 24 who is not yet financially solid, and has a position with a large com pany with excellent prospects but which at present pays him com paratively little. He is filled with all sorts of ambition and confi dence that some day he will rise high in the company. He wants very much for us to be married, but I keep wondering if it wouldn’t be smarter for us to wait until he is more firmly established. HESITANT. DEAR HESITANT: Why wait until AFTER he’s arrived? This could stretch into, a long time. If you’re in love with each other and he’s armed with all that am bition and confidence, you could enjoy a good and happy mar riage SHARING in his climb up the ladder of success. DEAR SALLY: A very attrac tive man I have been dating for some time has shocked me through and through with the news that he is married! He followed this news with the explanation that his wife is a bed-ridden invalid, has been for several years, and this has made him lc«ely and hun gry for the companionship of a good woman. He says I can give him much happiness just by going out with him, that we could keep everything strictly on a “friend ship basis." Do you think this would work out? C. C. DEAR C. C.: No. Steer clear of involvement with a man who seems to have forgotten com pletely the sacred vow he once took to cherish his wife 'insick ness and in health." DEAR SALLY: My girl friend and I are about to become en gaged, and she has told me that her father will soon be wanting to have a little heart-to-heart talk with me. . .regarding my financial status and my ability to provide for her. I have nothing to hide or to be ashamed of in this respect, but still I am won- How Can I? BY ANNE ASHLEY Q. How can I remove scorch stains from white shirts? A. If the scorch is light, and not burned in too deeply, you can try this: Cut a piece of tissue paper large enough to cover the spot, then drop a little peroxide on the tissue and while still wet, place a heated iron over the tis sue. Often, when the tissue is removed, the scorch will have vanished. Q. I’ve been using clear fin gernail polish to stop runs or snags in my nylon stockings, but it always turns white after I wash my hose. How about this? A.

After this cleaning job, be sure to leave the bottle un corked, open to the air. Q. How can I remove ink stains from carpets? A.
