band, and she doesn't even know
what is happening.
"For a while the girl lived with
them. She doesn't any longer, but
visits them frequently and always
manages to miss her bus so that
my sister's husband has to drive
her home.
"She makes opportunities for
getting him along or asking his
help about something, and my sis-
ter just doesn't see what she is up
to.
Put Her Wise?
"Should I try to put her wise to
what is going 011 and run the risk
of having her think I am meddling
in her business?
"Or should I keep quiet, which
I have done so far? There is al-
ready gossip about the situation."
Don't Go
Don't 30 to your sister, for you
may take away the faith in her
husband that is perhaps her great-
est safeguard against another wo-
man.
You might, however, depending
011 how well you get along with
your brother-in-law, take him aside
and tell him about the gossip.
Stress the fact that your sister
knows nothing of it, and you have
no intention of telling her.
If you can make him understand
(hat you are concerned not just
for your sister but for their mar-
riage, you may get somewhere.
Cool Head
The success or failure of your at-
tempt will depend on whether or
j riot you can keep a cool head. Do
1 not blame your brother-in-law for
1 the gossip, or low-rate the women
who is causing it, or you'll put him
on the defensive.
What you want is to open his eyes
to a situation that could seriously
affect his marriage, without blam-
ing him for its existence.
But don't try to talk to your
brother-in-law unless in the past
your relationship has been friendly
and affectionate.
If there is any antagonism be-
tween the two of you. then keep
quiet and hope for the best. 'All
