‘Dear Ann Landers: Please tell your women readers that no matter
how much they pay for a dress, they have no guarantee that it is
the only one in existence. How a woman behaves whien she goes to
8, party and runs into someone who has the fdentical number
reveals a great dea! about her character. *

My husband worked his way up from janitor to president ofa
bank. I remember my first really good dress, I bought it 15 years
ago and it cost $100. I felt like a queen when I put it on. Off we
went to a banker's dinner and the firat woman I saw at the

reception had on the identical dress, I smiled at her. She looked

horror-atricken and avoided me the entire evening as if] had some
loathsome disease. I'm sure she had a miserable time, Thad a ball.

Every woman in the world runs into this awkward situation
sooner or later, Please print my letter and tell her how todeal with
it, —Double Vision In 0 City
Dear 0.: A good measure of a woman is the size of things that
bother her. I can't imagine anything of less consequence than

He ignores phone messages, haso't answered his personal
correspondence in weeks (things we can't handle) and fails to show
up for luncheon engagements and other meetings. We are
expected to protect him with air-tight alibis,

Dear Ann Landers: You stated in a recent column that you are an
incurable chocolaholic and love desserts, but have managed to.
keep your weight under control because you don't touch alcohol

“which makes a whale of a difference.”

Kindly explain the “whale of a difference.” It sounds like an
idiotic statement to me. . —Ignorant In Iowa
Dear Iowa: A large gin martini, for example, contains 176 calories.
When people mix drinks at home, they are usually stiffer, which
Means more calories. (And they drink more at home because the
price is right.)

Drinkers, especially women, are often mystified as to why
they are losing the “battle of the bulge”. They keep telling you how

litle they eat, but-no mention is made of how much they drink, - .

If the folks who are trying to lose weight would dry up”
completely, they'd find the absence of booze in their diet would,

Warning
For Fabric
Softners

has issued advice to consumers

concerning the use of fabric
softeners which ‘are sprayed
directly into electric clothes-

F “Dryers should always be —
kept free from lint,” a spokes-

man for the department said,
“but this is particularly im-

portant when spray-on soften- ©

ers are used.” Softeners have a
tendency to increase the ac-
cumulation of lint, especially
when used too’ liberally,

Lint traps should be clean-
ed after every load and the
motor inspected and cleaned at:
least once a year. Careful and

regular cleaning will prevent
the buildup of lint which could
lead to a dryer fire.

" “There is no evidence at
the present time to show that
the sprays presenta fire hazard
as long as the instructions on
the label are followed carefully
and excessive amounts are not
used at any one time.”

The system ‘was first pre-

now reached into every state in
