DEAR ABBY: Iam going to marry a man I've gone
: with for many years, but due to circumstances I'll nut
go into bere, we weren't able to marry until now.
‘ This will be my second marriage. I have two suns, 12
' and 17, and adaughter 15. |
While discussing our marriage plans, my fiance
remarked that I should warn my daughter not to run
around in front of him in scanty attire when we are all
living together because, being human, it might arouse
~~ his “manly instint

While discussing our marriage plans, my fiance
remarked that I should warn my daughter not to run
around in front of him in scanty attire when we are all
living together because, being human, it might arouse
his “manly instincts.” (1 can’t recall his exact words,
but hig message was very clear.)

When I reacted with surprise and chagrin, he said I
had nothing to worry about, but he thought it only fair

"to warn me of what his reaction might be, and I should
be thankful that he warned me beforehand.

‘My daughter, who is very well developed for her age,
Is sometimes careless about keeping properly covered.
I've had to remind her to be a tittle mure modest in
front of her teenage brother,

My fiance has known my children since infancy, and
this remark has caused me to wonder if perhaps my
daughter would not he “safe” with him,

_ Doyou think I have a legitimate cause for concern?

SECOND THOUGHTS
DEAR SECOND: No. If your flance had any

, wwhealthy thoughts about your daughter, he wouldn't

have asked you to warn her about her tendency to run
around scantily clad. Let her know that more com-
posure and less exposure is in order,

DEAR ABBY: My problem is my ex-wife. We were
married for less than |wo years, never had any ch

DEAR ABBY: My problem is my ex-wife. We were
married for less than two years, never had any
children, and then were divorced, That was 10 years

ago, but. che is still calling herself “Mrs. Sidney
Feinbohm.”’ .

It is causing a lot of confusion because I am married
again, and my wife is constantly being confused with
theex-Mrs, Sidney Feinbohm. To make matters worse,
my ex-wife and my present wife have charge accuunts
at many of the same stores, and my wife gets bills that
should have gone to the other Mrs. Reinbohm.

[s there any. way I can force my ex-wife to quit using
my name and take her maiden name back? She has

still not remarried.
' ONE WIFE TOO MANY

DEAR ONE; There can be only ONE “Mrs. Sldney
Feinbohm” ata time. After your divorce, your ex-wife
became ‘Mra. her first name Feinbohm,” If she isn’t
aware of this, have your lawyer inform her officially in
r .

DEAR ABBY: In reply to DOGGONE MAD, who
objected to the neighbor’s dog doing its dirty tricks on
his lawn: In order to discourage dogs from coming
over on your property, just sprinkle a package of muth-
balls on the area that the dog has chusen for its dirly
