You look over the menu. If you know that one cup of creamed asparagus soup contains 180 calories, and one cup of clear chicken only 50 calories, you can make a saving choice right there. Clear tomato 50 calories, but cream tomato is 230 calories! Then we consider vegetables. Did you know that six stalks of celery (which is very good for you and appeases hunger pangs) contain only 15 calories? It is estimated that you should eat from 15 to 20 calories per day for every pound of weight (depending upon how active your day is). If you want to reduce, you should take your ideal weight, and figure your calory requirement.

For instance, if you are 140 pounds, but should be, and would like to be 125 pounds, you should eat only from 1,875 to 2,000 calories a day, and keep up your usual activity.

But to work and save as luck would have it, we had a child the first year and Inga had to quit her job, naturally--and since then she has been unbearable. I must admit that Inga was spoiled by her family. She is used to getting everything she desires, and she wants the best of everything.

And when she can't get these things she quarrels with me, complaining that I don't make enough money, etc. Mary Haworth She compares me to certain well-off friends of hers and sheds tears, saying that we will never have anything. I try to comfort her by reminding her of other people who aren't even as fortunate as we, but it doesn't help; she just won't be compared to them. She also complains because I never want to visit her family. But every time we visit there, she and her sister quarrel so sharply that one of them is always in tears.

And her little brother is so spoiled and unruly that I just can't stand being around them. Opposes Job-Taking Recently Inga mentioned that she wanted to go back to work. She said if we got a baby sitter she could do it. Well, naturally, I didn't like the idea, due to the fact that no one can give a child the care that a mother can. So I objected, and many heated arguments followed.

I lost patience and threatened several times to leave her, although I wouldn't.

What can you do with a person like that? I shall appreciate your comment, S. K. Fleeing Hairshirt Family DEAR S. situation isn't good. Inga isn't ready for wifehood and motherhood.

She wanted a license to live with you, with society's blessing, so as to enjoy unrestrained lovemaking and to feel the importance of being "missus." Both of you need help in growing up psychologically, to pass the new test you've brought on yourselves. In general, married pairs don't start out knowing how to get on well together, how to give their progeny a worthwhile brand of two-parent care, how to solve financial problems a day at a time, etc. Don't Talk Tough You feel at a dead end with Inga at this point largely because of your all-or-nothing attitude toward your own ideas of what's best. If she won't accept your dictates, you are "through" -that's your sales talk, which is tyranny, not attempted partnership. The key to success in family relations is tion-willingness to table one's own pet theories and try the other person's suggestions, if there is any good social precedent for them; and to give them wholehearted support during the try-out period.

It is a mistake to think, as you do, that "no one can give a child the care that a mother can." A good mother is God's gift to babies, yes, but better a warm-hearted housekeepernurse in charge than a mother who feels martyred by baby care. Incidentally, if you accommodate Inga in this matter, you will be picking up the reins of leadership indirectly, because a great leader is always a patient conciliator, as witness Abe Lincoln, one of the best and strongest of men.
