Anyway, after I get the kids bathed and in their beds, I have plenty of time to straighten the house and I know where everything belongs, so why shouldn't I do it? I could even do the ironing. This really bothers me, Abby. I always put the children's toys and clothes where they belong, but how about the rest of the house? I have a girlfriend who also babysits, and she says she gets paid extra for picking up the place. Should I offer to do more than just baby-sit? And should I be paid extra if I do? BAFFLED BABY SITTER DEAR BAFFLED: When you are asked to babysit, suggest that you are also capable of cleaning the kitchen, ironing and doine other asleep; and if you do household chores, you should be paid accordingly. So don't feel guilty asking for a reasonable compensation.

DEAR ABBY: If you print this, please do not use my name, my city or state just get my message across so another woman will be spared the disappointment I just experienced. I was married two years ago. in a picture-book perfect church wedding. All who attended said it was the most beautiful wedding they had ever seen. I wore a designer's wedding gown that cost $2,400.

It was satin, and beautifully beaded. When a very close friend of mine announced her engagement, she asked if she could wear my wedding gown, and I said yes. Abby, I have never regretted a decision more than that one. I gave it to her in perfect condition and it was returned to me in such a sorry state, I cried. She had perspired profusely, and someone spilled red wine on it.

Although the garment was sent to the best dry cleaner in town, it was totally ruined. Although the wine stains were not visible, that area was visibly damaged. Some beads had apparently come off in the cleaning and were replaced with beads of poorer quality and not the right size. I am crying as I write this, Abby, but I am determined to get this message across to other brides: If you value your wedding gown, DON'T let anvone wear it. Sign me.

Ever since I started baby-sitting, I've been nervous because I don't know exactly what the parents expect from me. For example: I arrive at a home to baby-sit, and the parents are waiting at the door for me and are all ready to leave the minute I get there, so I can't ask them any questions.

Yasser Seirawan (USA) had the only other plus score at 8-7 in a strong field of 16. Karpov is truly unique and still has the knack of making something out of nothing.

Here he grinds Alexander Khalifman, 25, a Soviet now residing in Germany who snared the $20,000 top prize at the 1 990 New York Open. Black's best try was 29..

Never before has a world champ interfered in the qualifying cycle. Anand's opening ideas came from Kasparov's camp, and that's why I had such big problems with White." "Rubbish!" said Anand. "Kasparov had no influence on my decision. I've known Gurevich for some time. He has qualities that I lack and we complement each other well." Gata Kamsky, 1 7, also proved that paranoia is still the state with the prettiest name.

After winning the USA Championship, he groused: "Even in America. Kasparov tries to stop my talent. He is the Caligula of professional chess. Fischer was poisoned just like me. I was sick almost a whole month when I got back from a tournament in Europe." description of your hand.

Alfred Sheinwold's nationally syndicated column appears daily. Reykjavik, Iceland, site of the 1 972 Fischer-Spassky title match. Action shifts to Brussels, Belgium, and then to Wellington, New Zealand; in 1 993 it resumes at Barcelona, Spain, and winds up at Brussels. In addition to prize money, the over-all high scorers amass bonuses in excess of 200.000. The favorites are Kasparov, 28, who won the first cycle, and his arch rival Anatoly karpov, 40.

Their war flared anew after Karpov's tough match victory over India's Viswanathan Anand. Today's declarer took only a second to play dummy's lowest spade at the first trick. East won and shifted to a heart since a spade continuation was clearly a waste of time. South had to try the ALFRED SHEIMVOLD club. Clearly, he had to look for three additional tricks in clubs.

Nothing could defeat South if he put up the ace of spades, entered his hand with a diamond, and took the club finesse. That would lose and East would return a heart. That finesse loses also, but South wins the heart return and collects one spade, one heart, three diamonds and four clubs. Plus 600 is better than minus 200 points.
