DEAR ABBY: My brother left his wife of nine years and his children for another woman. They now have a baby together. His wife nearly had a nervous breakdown be- cause of it, and his children are understand- ably upset with the situation. My question has to do with his new baby. I would like to send my brother a congratu- latory card, even though his divorce fi- nal.

Our mother is furious and refuses to speak to him, let alone congratulate him. Still, I would like to send a card and a gift for the baby. How should I handle this? UNDECIDED DEAR UNDECIDED: Send a card and a gift to the baby. The child should not be punished because of the behaviorof the parents. However, considering the cir- cumstances, forgo the congratulatory card to yourbrother.

DEAR ABBY: In the 17 years I have been married, my husband has never called me by my name. Nor has he ever used a term of en- dearment such as or just or Am I crazy? I was raised to be- lieve you address a person by name, say if someone does something nice, and compli- ment a person if he or she has done well.

Can you help me understand why he behaves this way? I HAVE ANAME DEAR I HAVE ANAME: Did yourhus- band treat you this way before you mar- ried him? If so, you married an undemon- strative lump of a man who apparently neverlearned basic manners while grow- ing up. If it started afteryourwedding and afteryou told him how his behavior makes you feel, he has persisted then un- derstand that he is trying to punish you forsomething. Now I have a question foryou: Why have you tolerated this kind of passive-ag- gressive behaviorfor17 years? DEAR ABBY: When someone at the of- fice lends you a lint remover, should you re- turn it with the used lint paper still on it or tear it off and return it with a fresh one? Please let me know which is appropriate. AN- GELICAIN SAN JOSE, CALIF. DEAR ANGELICA: If the rollerwas clean when it was given to you, then it should not be returned with lint on it.

In otherwords, when an item is borrowed, it should be returned in the same condition in which it was loaned.
