WIFE CONCEALS LATE HUSBAND'S FEET OF CLAY FOR SAKE OF KIDS

DEAR ABBY: My friends and neighbors thought I had the best
husband, and our children thought he was the greatest dad.
But on the day he died, I found out he had been having sex
with another woman.

I went to visit him in the hospital and overheard the whole
thing as he was talking to her. Abby, she was a prostitute.
I knew money had been disappearing, but I never imagined
anything like this.

Should I go on pretending to my adult children, or tell them
the truth? They thought he was the best father in the whole
world. Even though this happened more than five years ago,
I continue to have nightmares over it.
-- STILL HURTING IN BOSTON

DEAR HURTING: I see nothing positive to be gained by shat-
tering your children's image of their father at this point.
I'm sorry he failed you as a husband. However, for you to
spend more of your life nursing hurt and disappointment is
a waste of your precious time. Talk to your religious ad-
viser or confide in a therapist. But do not bring this up
with your children.

Crystal Nail File 2-Pack
The Latest Innovation In Nail Care...

Normal Price: $14.99
DEAL PRICE: $5.99 for two -- Get Two Sets (4 files) $9.98

Crystal Glass nail files are the perfect solution for shaping
both natural and artificial nails. The files are very gentle
on the natural nail and with regular use can help prevent
splitting and peeling and they give a lovely smooth finish.

Extremely hygienic... unlike other nail files, the Crystal
Glass nail file is not porous and cannot absorb water and
create an environment for disease (bacterial or fungal). Plus
they can be disinfected, boiled or sterilized by any known means
or simply washed under hot running water.

Mostly you're going to love how they provide a smoother filing
process. NO MORE JAGGED EDGES...

Great for acrylic nails and in the place of a pumice stone. These
files feature two levels of abrasion.

DEAR ABBY: I am a 76-year-old father of three sons and
grandfather of five. The other night, I was dining out with
my brother, one of my sons, his 31-year-old wife, and their
two children, ages 5 and 2.

The server was standing next to me and the 5-year-old,
poised to take our orders. My daughter-in-law was distracted
by the 2-year-old, so I placed my order so the server would
not be kept standing there.

My son chastised me for not waiting until his wife placed
her order first. Embarrassed, I offered an apology. Was I
wrong not to wait for my daughter-in-law to place her order?
What would have been the proper thing to do?
-- EMBARRASSED IN GARFIELD, N.J.

DEAR EMBARRASSED: Frankly, the "proper thing to do" in this
case would have been for your son to save his criticism until
he could talk to you privately, rather than embarrassing you
in a public place. Ordinarily, the rule of thumb "ladies
first" would apply when giving the dinner order. However,
because your daughter-in-law was distracted, speaking up and
telling the server what you wanted makes sense to me.


DEAR ABBY: The company where I work posted an ad online and
at our state unemployment job board for a position that
needed to be filled. The ad detailed simple but specific
instructions that included asking applicants to write a cover
letter to address certain questions. It also said -- in large
letters: "YOU MUST FOLLOW THESE DIRECTIONS OR YOU WILL NOT
BE CONSIDERED FOR EMPLOYMENT."

Of the 133 resumes we received, 76 did not contain the infor-
mation that was requested. These applications were moved to
an "Incomplete" file and not considered for hire. What's sad
is that judging by their resumes alone, several of these
applicants had the qualifications we were looking for.

With unemployment being what it is, I was surprised that the
majority of the applicants did not comply with the simple
instructions. Please advise your unemployed readers that a
job is out there for them, but they must follow instructions.

DEAR TRYING TO BE HELPFUL: Consider it done. Now I'll offer
another suggestion: Always proofread what you have written
to ensure there are no spelling or transposition errors.
